Whee. I'm here and I have a review.
Hi everyone, I'm Ruth Creole and I'm a new reviewer for th Yorokonde! Review. Basically I criticize new anime titles ("Where are the speed lines?! There must be speed lines!"), dubbing/ subtitling ("Like a pupa under the moonlight?! What the?!") and of course review rate 2 episodes (or three if it's a three-parter) at a time. Because I believe you just can't review one episode without knowing what's the resolution. (Unless you do mulitiple Review!day like what Rika does)
So, what anime title do I have my eye on? Wolf's Rain. Since so far we are limiting oursleves to animax anime` I might as well review Wolf's Rain ne?
One of the neglected anime titles seen in Animax. Why? Because of the god-awful timeslot. Sure it may be a tad bit violent, but ain't GTO a tad bit violent and a bucket full of hentai? What about chobits?! What about? I have no idea. But my point is that it sucks to look foawrd to this anime after a long tiring day just to sleep 30 mins. before it starts. So bah you animax. We demand a bettah timeslot!!
Next order of business, as much as I would lurv to make a plot-review, I myslef am confused. But here goes nothing. Wolf's Rain is set on the last years/months/days of earth where most life is extinct except for mangy corrupt humans. Wolves, according to one episode, is the ancestors of humans and is destined to lead the people to "Paradise", as in like save their souls, give them salvation/ saving. But, the catch is that poeple have given up hope of reaching paradise since wolves ave extinct 200 years ago. It's like saying that the Dodo bird holds the secrets of the past and the future, but we don't believe it since we know its dead/ extinct/ nada/ zip/ zero. Basically, Aristocrats have all the money while others merely survive on thier own under the what i call the "protectorate" of the aristocrats inside their Dome (a city like thingy). Demo... WOLVES STILL EXIST!! But how the hell they're gonna get themselves to paradise? That's one reason why you need to watch the series. =) **Warning: LAST TWO EPISODES LEFT!! JUST WAIT FOR THE RE-RUNS!! SAVE YOURSELVES FROM THE DEVIL OF SPOLIERS!!**
(oh man this is gonna be a long post)
Character Review!
Unlike our very much tried and tested 4 bishie anime series (Gomenasai Kazuya Minekura-sama!!), this is a tad bit new. Why? Because the major formula for our 4-bishie anime is: The brooding deadpan leader, the hot playboy (usually long-haired) sidekick, the witty calm-go-beserk most probably gay sidekick and of course the young naive one. But this time, the closest thing we could get to a playboy is a guy with no luck with girls, our sexay!hot! sidekick is the brooding thinking 2nd leader, our supposedly brooding leader is the aggresive blind from reality when with the leading lady and our young most-prolly-gay naive one is just one person. The character design is fantastic and for the fangirls out there, you'll not only be captivated by the drool-worthy art but also the wonderful characters and personalities they play! Thw animation for the animals (owls, wolves, cats, crows, dogs etc.) is just fantabulous. Realistic. From the scrunching up of the wolf's snout when its angry to the fluid grace of an owl's head when it does a 360ยบ.
Music Review!
I don't have the OST yet =) But the entrance and the ending theme are both in english, though the second one is obviously sung by a Japanese singer. But beautiful lyrics just the same =)
Maybe I'll do the review of both epi's one and two later.
Ja ne~
