Tatsujin:

--- Quote from: Tatsujin on May 31, 2009, 03:55:06 PM ---Got back to the second half, on episode 17. I like the colorful watermarks they've implemented. It's a different direction in the second setting than the first setting. I've been playing SO1 and watching Seirei no Moribito (again).

As promised. I finished the series and from my point of view ... Season 1 is much, much better. There's a definite strong connection between characters in the first season and some outstanding artistic BG-renders. The seriousness was also another thing I want to note down and the aggressiveness from most characters. Each episode had a severe meaning to it that brings the watcher closer and closer to the story. I have to add another thing ... from the few minor characters that Hikaru and her party meets, there are those very small events that just looking beyond them is not only a mystery but digs a superb grave for the story and those minor characters; the poem on the stone, the rainbow road, the search for the other rubies (or whatever they called them in the series), the bond between Hikaru and her brother as well as Tsuma as well as Tsuma and Urabe and via versa. Tho' Kintarou and Sa-whatever weren't deeply involved with the stories, or tho' from what I thought.

As for the second part, they drifted off and the story or the episodes were not as continues as it was nor it was as serious as the first season was. This was the critical part that was missing besides the fucking retarded ending (yes, I hated it). Season 1's ending is much better. Tho' I have to say episodes 25 was good and 26 is even better for the second season. 2nd season was all fillers, there was that connection from Season 1 but well ... ;/

I'll definitely dig Season 1 again sometime this winter.
