| Ohana: "These bitches is trying to kill me" |
So cutting to the chase: after watching the first episode(hey I made it through the entire episode) I don't know how I feel about this anime. It's about a girl who is bored with her life and for reasons to forced into the plot for me to mention in this post, she must then uproot and move to a hot springs, and she's expecting a fairy tale dream like thing, but instead she is forced into hard labour by her own grandmother (so I guess she's Filipino?), which is kind of more exciting than her old life but she realizes she hates that life to which reminds me of that Chris Rock quote "Married and bored, or single and lonely....ain't no happiness no where"
The actual art is beautiful, and I like the idea of the story but it's delivery was slow (like the most exciting thing that happened all episodes was Ohana got triple slapped by her grandmother...I was like WTF?!?! HOW'D SHE DO THAT?! just goes to show if you train hard you can abuse children too) and bland, and it really reminds me of a Spirited Away sort of plot line (except you know...Iroha sucked...) in fact I'm pretty sure if you look at the ending sequence that weird crow thingy from Spirited Away can clearly be spotted for like a full second or two and then the grandma looks at the bird lovingly from her window
It's weird that I got a recommendation for this anime today in specific because today was one of those days I felt really bored with my life, like everything is too mundane and predictable, but this reminded me "hey you probably don't want unpredictable"...I don't know if I agree with that statement completely, nor do I know if I like this anime or hate it, nor do I know if I'll continue watching it....this anime has brought up more questions then answers.....is that the sign of a great anime?
BOW MOTHERFUCKER WHAT?!,
