gonna watch an anime called “un-go” because a friend said i'd probably vibe with it and it has music by narasaki and also i swear it came up when talking to other friends last month, high hopes

HERE WE GO

literally less than 5 minutes in and this has ghost-in-the-shell level political density that's making it hard to follow ahahah

“kaishou-kaichou” lmao

holy shit the way the detective is introduced this is gonna be peak. i gotta clip this later

oh my god the constant titles appearing that explain who someone is (their name and position and affiliated organisation) are used for almost a form of dramatic irony this is incredible

this is so… ace attorney. in the strangest ways

thsi fuckign gremli n of a character

what an incredibly strong first episode???? i'm going to love this series

true to my word, here's how the detective duo is introduced in the first episode of “un-go”

ok episode 2 let's go

btw the title of this series, “un-go” [sic], is something like the japanese equivalent of naming a detective series “homes” [sic]

or rather “doil” [sic]. very explicit homage

this computer is adorable look at that “cover flow” imitation but with blank cds

*does this to u*

certain things in un-go episode 2 almost presage the most infamous internet-related EU legislation of the current era. hell, i might have to turn one of them into a GIF at some point, it's so incredibly on-the-nose

episode 3 let's go

this series, un-go, is genuinely incredible, i wish i had a familiarity with the original works of ango that are being adapted, but i wonder if it's making everything some future sci-fi dystopia to invoke the same otherworldly-future feel that the meiji era might have had, hmm

what the hell were they on when they came up with this series

it… really is a lot like ace attorney? while also being nothing like ace attorney. it goes hard in different ways. i'm getting the sense that both of these works have common inspirations i'm unfamiliar with

@hikari have you watched the Ace Attorney live action films?

@hikari Sorry, I misremembered and thought there had been a sequel.
