/a/ - anime/random

I liked the first episode until the godawful fight scene at the end of it. Did this episode have anything like that?
Also Mana sure is cute.

Except every episode to have it.
How do you manage watching anime if you can't survive a typical battle scene?

I didn't like it both because it didn't fit very well with the rest of the episode and because it was really just a really shitty fight scene. Nothing but Kitarou repeatedly using the same dumb special attacks against it while it runs away. I liked how most of the episode was about being introduced to the youkai and figuring things out instead.

Dumb battle scenes don't really annoy me. Dad waiting till when he did to say how to beat it really pissed me off though.

Maybe he forgot. He doesn't have much of a brain.

This series seems to be trying to use the dated terminology and stylistic of the original with modern setting, and isn't managing it well. I mean, it might be okay if you find this stuff nostalgic, but I don't. Also the plot is squarely the motw with overarching enemy cliche. But, minor problems aside, it's not doing much for the characters, and is doing even less as worldbuilding. I can wave off that the dad waited for ages to tell Mana the way to beat the monster, but I can't handle not knowing why this actually worked. Should I continue watching? Just did the third ep, and I doubt it'll ever get better.

I encourage you to watch episode 4, just because I dont feel I shouldn't be the only one who had to suffer through it. It's about the kid who told Mana about Kitarou in the first place and he's obnoxious as hell.
5 was a bit better, but I think you're pretty much on point with everything you said there so if you're not feeling it by now I doubt there'll be much for you.

Well, did this a couple of weeks later. Be satisfied. It was shit.
