Alice & Zoroku was nice. The guy seems like an interesting character for sure.

I hope it fulfills the role of "cute girl and gruff man get into and out of jams" and doesn't fall on its face like Dimension W did.

FA Girls gets big points for being the first model-building anime I've seen where a character loses a tiny part and looks for it all over only to discover that it was in a fold on their clothes the whole time

Why can't we ever get a mobage adaption where they just give us both gendered protagonists? Just make them cousins so the shippers get an extra factorial worth of combinations.

Warau Salesman: There's certain circumstances I like sufferporn and this is not it. This is just random not bad people getting screwed over and their lives ruined by a malevolent force and I will not enable it.

the va for the female protagonist is credited so she has some role in the show.

Hell Girl does this leagues better than this showa-era malignance.

Hell Girl is also intensely boring so this salesman thing sounds terrible all around

The problem with Laughing Salesman is the it isn't clear how we are meant to perceive him. The people he messes with definitely have some hubris, but they are otherwise relatively normal people who stick within society's boundaries. Its only when he enables their hubris that they gently caress themselves over.

We don't know his motivations or desires, and he doesn't work as a force of nature entity either. Hell Girl on the other hand works under a clear set of rules, and its the acknowledge of the nature of these rules that test the morality of each client. As a result, the show is both thematically and mechanically clear and consistent. Neither are clear in Laughing Salesman, so we aren't sure what were watching.

I dunno, seems like a fairly clear Buddhist parable about the dangers of earthly desires, monkey's paw style. It's not very interesting to watch, though, because the outcome is obvious as soon as the situation is established.

One time i almost bought a F.A.G. but then i found found out they were model kits instead of figma-like action figures so I didn't. Well thats my Frame Arm story.

Literally the first shot in Frame Arms Girl is panties.

Because if I want an anime about toy-sized female fighters, I'm going to go straight for the best one, thank you. (At least I think it's the best one, it's by CLAMP and well-received so it's on the backlog :v:)

You all know what I mean, the entire show feels like it was made to pander to a specific kink


edit: By the way it was nice to see yellow subtitles again, so I guess the show has that going for it
