currently watching Yasuke and AAAA ITS SO GOOD
m/appa did an amazing job with the animation
i’m in love with the music, character design, background art and the voice acting
the attention to detail is MWAH https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💋" title="Kussabdruck" aria-label="Emoji: Kussabdruck">

i just love how intense the violence is and how really fluid the fight scenes are as well

i’m more interested in stuff in terms of art and how it’s presented rather than the story

i’m not the biggest fan of mecha but in terms of how it’s composed in scenes i liked it
it doesn’t seem clunky if that makes sense https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht">

also i’m only on episode three but so far the story seems to have a lot going on
which makes sense(?) it has a lot of fantasy elements and delves into a lot of (very) different types of characters. ranging from an autonomous robot, creepy priest, etc
maybe it all plays in later?

lowkey was expecting a more historial take
but I can see that adding more fantasy elements makes it more appealing (in terms of trying to appeal a western audience)

(I’ll dive into more research once I’m done so I’m not just spouting nonsense)

now that the hype I had had died down within me I can probably give a more neutral take on Yasuke later so I’ll most likely delete this thread and start a new https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✨" title="Funken" aria-label="Emoji: Funken">
