Don’t get me wrong, the show is inching its way to grow on me. Kind of.
Also, I really like Kuroko from Railgun. I really do. Nothing beats a girl who’s trying to get some good yuri lovin’ from another and being super aggressive about it.
But she needs to shut the fuck up and stop explaining everything and telling us everything as we if were idiots and can’t see stuff for ourselves. What, is this supposed to be funny listening to her sarcastic tone?
I had enough in episode 1, but in episode 2, it became super distracting. All I was saying to myself was “shut the fuck up, you’re ruining a decent story by interjecting way too much. You’re not the commentator soundtrack, so shut the motherfucking hell up!”
Again, I like her as Kuroko in Railgun, but she needs to stay out of this show or otherwise, I’d be super distracted. Her commentary isn’t witty enough or sharp enough as it is and being constantly harped on doesn’t turn me on.
So the romance continues and Okami doesn’t break down in dere-dere mode enough. There’s a villian behind everything. We got it. We can see it with our own eyes.
So shut the fuck up and go act for Railgun 3rd season when it comes out.
The show is fine but the commentary track’s gotta go.
P.S. Fine. It’s somehow supposed to be a “fairytale” setting and humor but it gets really grating on my nerves.
Meta is meta, I guess, though it’s not very clever meta as you said. The narrator really does feel like she’s just filling in subtext that’s usually pretty clear from the expressions on people’s faces or in the actions–something that is, normally, a violation of visual storytelling 101. It’s not enough to kill my overall enjoyment of the show though–it’s reasonably entertaining enough. For once the guy is actually not all that pathetic, for one…
He’s not quite pathetic in actual skills, that’s always a plus. But he honestly doesn’t stand out as a male lead, after all. I like the show itself I just hate the announcer (Kuroko).
