Winning Tough

[CaptainSick · 10/10 · 22 February 2021]

I like people try hard at something, like the hero, he have twin ever since he could remember, like a habit. While I've been in this world since I was real small, so I think I'll, I could understand all the troubles and joys he went trough.

The soundtrack was nice

Discovered this short anime while I was looking for similar movies to Interstella 5555: The main problem here is that this seems to be aimed to the people who already has familiarity with the source material; to everyone else, this will merely appear as something completely random and disjointed. (Case point: The main love interest basically disappears after the Let's Hear It For The Boy sequence, despite supposedly being the protagonist, at least according with the plot summary)

The 80s soundtrack is nice, with some pretty good songs and some nice covers, being the strongest aspect of this animation.

There is an "incomplete" feel here, with the story seemingly going at first in one direction and then simply going nowhere.

Also, what's up with the weird incest subtext on the latest part?
