Psycho-Pass (2012)
Boring and bad.
Horrible. We're forced to see that black haired man development throught the whole anime, he literaly has his own history line which is the main story of the anime; so I ask, why is he not the protagonist then????? If you're gonna make a good protagonist, that barely has any importance in the wide scenary, then why make her at all???? ( i'm talking only about the anime, i did not watch the movie, and neither will I).
All and all, the other characters beside the main ones, develop poorly, i barely know anything about those guys, especially that one that died early, because there is no way that you can call only one episode containing only one chat with him, character development, and after that treat him like he doesn't exist until you can just discard him, c'mon.
And now about the black haired guy again, cause i forgot his name; HE IS SO DAMN BORING. It's almost like he and the vilain were created only for the creator of the anime to show off all of his knowledge, he only speaks in citations, every time. If you really want your piece to be filosofical, it's way better if you work on the abstract part of the anime, hidding what you want to say with abstraction, or with NATURAL DIALOGUES ( which this guy doesnt have) so it can be subconciously understood, and not by just spitting random citations every single time. It's boring, and the creator's intentions are obvious, almost an self insert. This character fells like a robot honestly, he and the vilain are so poorly made, they dont seem human, dont show emotion, and all they do is explain,explain,explain; they dont have feelings, it's just bad. ( I dont remember if the vilain is a psychopath, but even if he is, he should have emotions regarding himself and the other guy, not the widest range of emotions, but stil some, that should at least have beedn made seeable, in his face, voice, word choice, whatsoever)
And again, if everyone in that anime is so darn intelligent, knowing every sociologic and filosofic bit as to why their world is flawed, then why dont they do anything to change it??? It doesnt make sense. That just reinforces the fact that some of the characters are not really chatacters, they are just a way for the creator to show how much he knows.
Anyway, one of the worst anime I have ever watched.
Alice to Therese no Maboroshi Koujou (2023)
Aimless
It's a cool movie, but it just happens to be another one of those japanese movies that has a pretty good start, with a good aim on what it's about, but somewhere near the end, the metaphors and meanings stars hiting everythinf they can; it's almost like they want to make the movie to be about everything, and honestly it doenst work, not when you start doing this at the very end. It got confusing and extra explanatory; it didnt even seem real anymore.
I really liked where it was going, but this urge they felt for talking about a bunch of emotions at the end with almost no development to most of them just kinda of messed everything up. I'm just saying that, it is better to keep it simple and targetted than start adding a lot of unecessary dialogue about emotions that you'll have to explain because they weren't developed to be simply undestood by context.
