    I'm in love with how much love this show is getting. It stole my heart immediately and still has it weeks after its end. Lycoris Recoil really is something special. I'm glad that so many other people agree.

    You are correct. This show is so much more than an action series. It is well written.

    You're right with "probably going to make me cry by the end and even if the show itself doesn't make that happen not having it to watch on Saturdays going forward might just do the trick". I feel empty now that the show ended and it's sad that other materials of the show like the Manga adaption will most likely never be available here in Germany.

    I’ve liked the girls with guns shows since Noir; Canaan is my favorite. This one was very good; my favorite part was Takina’s flip in single-minded devotion from the DA to Chisato to the point of bloodthirsty rage.

    I know this would be weird coming from a really jaded person like myself, but Lycoris Recoil is probably my Anime of 2022, unless if Bleach and CSM and Spy x Family have something to say about it come Fall 2022.
    It's been fun, engaging, and heartfelt all around with a great lead duo, and I thought it handled its tone shifts quite well, considering the premise it was in. I'm not gonna act like it's perfect and flawless by any means cause it does have some issues like pacing or odd plot choices, but at least for the most part, I thought it stayed quite true to what it intended to show and accomplish, and that's more than enough for me.

Adachi and shimura (kinda boring , useless alien) , NTR (big yikes , fuck Fujiwara, lacks substantiality) and ok you get it ...
      if lycoris lines up with yuri , it would be a big needed refresh for the genre, because it has everything you'd want from an anime , and a solid production

      i should stop hating on seasonals but in recent years anime has been super lazy and does things that have already done before but giving them a gimmicky twist. if i had the platform i'd promote digging into more obscure anime (that seasonals constantly borrow ideas from) instead of keeping up with mediocre shows every week.

    Majima is, in his own way, a hero. Extrajudicial killings? Turning hundreds of children into child soldiers? He's against that, even if it means costing Japan its peace - the Pax Lycoris, if you will - because he thinks the cost of that peace is too high. The fact that the only way he can think of to do this is to throw an entire city into chaos and expose Direct Attack in a day of blood and gunfire is what makes him a villain.
    The conflict between Majima and Direct Attack - a battle of opposing opinions on what wrongs are acceptable - makes for a deeper show than just Girls Doing Cute Things mixed with Girls With Guns. From my view, Chisato and Takina are heroes, and yet they are still pawns of DA as long as they do anything that supports Japan's peace as it is at the start of the show.

    I honestly think the quality is going down, especially for the latest 3 episodes. Chisato's new heart comes out from nowhere, Majima's "plan" is so confusing, DA's horrible battle skills...I love Lycoris Reocil and I want it to be good. It looks like A-1 wants to focus on the story between Chisato and Takina (I mean I like it), but they also want to talk about something like utopia, balance, justice, darkness, blahblahblah. Unfortunately, A-1 is not able to handle it. They didn't depict enough about Majima's background to support his action. Why we can understand him is because other similar characters (like Joker mentioned in the video).
    Additionally, I pay more attention to battle scenes (I am a fan of firearms but not professional), and I know it's kinda unfair to judge an anime based on its battle scenes. But look at the first two episodes, A-1 did a good job. I don't understand why the battle scenes look so bad now. If A-1's goal is to show the audience how unqualified DA is, well, they reached the goal. (By the way, I think why people call Lycoris Recoil "anime John Wick" is because Chisato uses C.A.R (Center Axis Relock) skill just like JW).
    There is only one episode left, I don't expect Lycoris Recoil can be amazing, but I will still give it 80/100. I mean, who doesn't like cute girls? And all the plots about Chisato & Takina are great. I can see the growth of them, and of course, all those cute interactions. If there is another season, I will definitely watch it.

    • @danyul-
      @danyul-  2 роки тому +3

      Personally disagree on the quality going downhill, but I do agree that the battle scene with Chisato climbing the tower in particular wasn't that well done. The anime has been consistently animated up to this point though so I won't complain too much. As for Majima, I think his plan makes sense given his personality. His deeds were being covered up, leaving him with no recognition so he wanted to expose the Lycoris' existence, and did so pretty effectively.
      A1 did decide to focus more on their relationship. Wish I would have mentioned it in the video, but the director mentioned that LycoReco was originally going to be a darker anime, but decided to focus on the relationships instead.
      Also, we should be getting 13 episodes, so 2 left instead of just 1.

      Actually no, the spy have the new heart all along the whole time, that why there it was the Sensei confession after they discover that she had two months to live, now they have high stakes, and everything to lose, the question if the spy of the Alan Institute would come out alive by the end of the season after betraying Chisato, I not think that Takina would let it go without a bullet between his eyes after what he did to Chisato.

      Maybe Majima is an Allan Inst. donor like Chisato but find something wrong of their motives like Yoshimatsu did to Chisato to be a hitman. I think to scratch to another season that who really Allen Institute really was, when Lilybells originated and why I said Majima gone vendetta to DA dept.
