I love anime!
When it's done right.
This wasn't.
The motion capture in this thing is bad. Long hair doesn't obey gravity, moves like a low-resolution helmet. Walk sequences look like jokes about video game clipping.
The background assets were, however, well made and well lit. So kudos for that. Except I showed up for the story... There isn't one.
The main character is an uninteresting waif who makes those annoying little girl chirp noises popular in (bad) anime and generally looks pathetic. I couldn't stand her. That might just be cultural, but how is it that other anime doesn't annoy me this much?
So I didn't stick around to see if she could kick ass. We already know she can. -Because cliche tropes are what they are. Who cares?
