GATCHAMAN Crowds – 06

By Asobi August 22, 2013

Originality

This shift towards the characters of the show was definitely more of what I wanted to see.

() (Shin Seiki Ginga Densetsu Futatabi! Soko Yusha yo Daichi ni Tate! (Hi Nichijou Hen))
"Return of the New Century Galaxy legend! O Armored Hero, Stand upon the Earth! (Abnormal Arc)"

More complexity in the murders doesn't seem to be what Danganronpa really needs.

Kitsch & Collaboration

Even if the show does have its problems, I cant help but love what Gatchaman Crowds keeps trying to do.

"Weekly Shounen Despair Magazine (Abnormal Arc) & Return of the New Century Galaxy legend! O Armored Hero, Stand upon the Earth!"

The problems of Danganronpa, mainly one of a diminishing novelty, is still looming over the show. But in any case, the anime's got my interest again for another episode.

Asymmetry & Futurism

I think this is the fastest Ive seen the actions of a superteam get called out on.

"Kill Free or Live Hard / Abnormal Days & Weekly Shounen Despair Magazine / (Not) Normal Arc"

As enjoyable as Danganronpa is, how long will the novelty last?

First Impressions Uchouten Kazoku

(Yakushibo no Oku Zashiki )
"Yakushibo's Inner Parlor"

I think its testament to the standing brilliance of Uchouten Kazoku that three episodes in, it remains a spellbinding experience.

(Haha to Raijin-sama)
"Mother and Raijin, God of Thunder"

Im becoming convinced that PA Works might just finally strike gold with Uchouten Kazoku, so long as they keep the quality shown here consistent.

GATCHAMAN CROWDS – 01

Avant-garde

Im almost tempted to reuse my flavor text from Tsuritama last year, because one things for sure. You aint gonna see anything else as refreshingly outrageous as Gatchaman Crowds this season.
