THE GOOD
- Story about struggling mobile game maker. Not something you see everyday and we've got stories about making deadlines, sales expectations and coming up with a design document.
- Legend of Galactic Heroes (one of my favourite anime series ever) references in episode 2. I was squealing like a schoolgirl with ever LoGH reference. If only such a bar existed. It truly made my day.
THE BAD
- Misako Uno comes from the school of Nagase Tomoya school of needless excessive overacting.
THE UGLY
- Misako Uno facial expressions. Seriously, did the director think this was supposed to be funny?
SUMMARY
- Two gaming related doramas in one season? Too early to tell but I can't stand Mukodono 2 level extreme overacting. No one's retimed the Japanese subs and the Japanese subs from last season at jsubbers has disappeared. Kinda watchable first two eps.
I would add a few more "Goods" to the list...
ReplyDelete- All the computers have actual game development tools, which adds to realism. They probably got a lot of help from Gungho in that respect.
- Kitagawa Hiromi is glorious even with her jimi styling.
It's a surprisingly watchable low budget show, but I agree with you Uno's acting is a bit too much.
