congrats, never watch episode 1 or 2

episode 1 and 2, are insanely boring

Episode 1 is honestly a decent movie. It just doesn't deserve to be called Star Wars because it's really not a Star Wars movie.

Episode 2 is hot trash though

The little arc that just ended was pretty nice. It's not nearly as good as Shirobako and I dunno what that other one is but it rounded out into a pretty satisfying setting

Star Wars? More like Blah Wars, amirite.

I am right. My daughter described them perfectly thus: "It's like Haruhi Suzumiya. Everyone was talking about how awesome they were and at the end you're like. 'Oh, well that was fun. Do you want to get Chinese or Hindu?'"

Hanasaku Iroha is like Oregairu. But Hikki is a girl. And also has a Persona 4 crossover. And your parents are weird. But not really! Also your grandma is cool. And slightly foxy (it's because how cool she looks smoking that kiseru). And boys can be dreamy!

Or something.

I was sad I missed the nitecrew streams of Star Wars prequels but now I got to see episode III: Revenge of the Sith and laugh at it with my friends and now I am even more bewildered that CD thinks the prequels are a Marxist-Leninist masterpiece

To be fair, CD thinks that about all movies.

He wasn't that stupid, he just didn't think there would be something that could actually be a credible threat to a Jedi Knight. You could almost say his overconfidence was his weakness.

Anywhere near Hanasaku Iroha or Shirobako levels?

I wouldn't rate Sakura Quest as highly as either of those, so I suppose no, but it's a different flavor of show and overall I'm enjoying it. Quest is more laid-back and slow paced, with less serious drama than Hanasaku and less "real life kicks the characters' asses" than Shirobako.

Sakura Quest is a really slow burn, and the characters haven't hooked as strongly as Hanasaku Iroha or Shirobako. That said, it's been growing on me, and Shiori is the best Sakura

This is basically where I'm at, only my interest has been waning instead of growing.

Or "Ou/Joou-sama." I certainly feel like I've seen some evil emperor referred to as "Badguy-Ou-sama," at least.

His performance in Episode 3 almost single-handedly makes up for how tremendously bored everyone else looks through the whole trilogy. He's having such a goddamn good time.
