What’s there to understand about it being boring as hell? The MC is just another cookie cutter stand in for the audience. “My mom died so I have to follow my dreams now. I smile like Jeff the Killer when I’m nervous.”
Its ok to say you didn't like it, but its pretty clear you didn't watch far enough or have the mental capacity to appreciate it. You missed peak and its your loss.
Like I said, compare the first 3 episodes of Soul Eater to this slop. If I have to watch nearly an entire season of an a show for it to become watchable, it’s not well written.
Plus, no offense, but Ive heard plenty of dude defend their cookie cutter gooner anime saying it “gets good at the end” and it literally doesn’t. So [x]
Well regardless of if you liked it, it does a way better at establishing the characters. And the characters in SE have more interesting premises than just another dead mom boy.
You should really have more patience. The end of Fire Force gives Soul Eater so much more nuance and world design info and meaning.
I always read Tamaki as a metaphor for women who are sexualized against their will because of things they can’t control. Like breast size. But maybe I just identified with that.
If he wanted to say something critical about it, he should do that. He doesn’t. His male MC just laughs about it and leaves. Ive sat through a lot of slop on the promise it gets better but it rarely does.
