Rick and Morty: The Anime: Girl Who Manipulates Time (2024)
Absolutely aweful
The animation is hideous, slow and confusing. The plot of the 1st episode gives you nothing to start with or keep you interested. And the pacing is just bad. I don't know how much money they put into making this or if they made this as a joke, but, is not even worth watching and is not remotely related to anime. I would've understood if this was a meta joke on "if you don't like it, so are all the other anime's stupid and confusing" kind of thing. But, it fails to do even that... idk maybe things will change by the end of the season but... i don't have any hopes for this and will be easily forgotten.
Krapopolis (2023)
A truly masterpiece!
Dan Harmon's humor isn't easily digested by everyone, you have to be a "certain type of person" to truly get it (phun intended). And I believe that Krapopolis is no different than Rick and Morty or Community, the humor is right on point and the ancient Greece environment just gives him more space to be creative with "sticks n' stones". I'm sure this will get better as it progresses because of Dan's "Story Circle" that grows on you the more you watch. And I do have a feeling that the first 3 episodes (that every big publication reviewed) were intentionally "blunt" and wayyyy too meta, just to mess with the profesional reviewers. I'm 100% sure this will turnaround midseason... Why? Two reasons, really. The 2 episodes we've seen during the premiere feels like introductions, where the cast doesn't undermine the character that's being introduced (except for Deliria, cuz, God's don't abide to rules). 1st was Deliriea, 2nd was Stupendous, 3rd will probably be about fishes and so on... becoming we need to establish canonical relationships with them for better storytelling. 2nd... let's be honest, we're talking money here and Harmon ain't cheap or Fox insane to buy 3 seasons upfront. Give it time I guarantee that I'll grow on you!
Strange Planet (2023)
Has Dan Harmon lost it?
I was expecting this to be fun to watch. Is not! In all honestly is blank, unsatisfying and hard to follow. The artwork is nice looking and the animation is smooth, but, the color choices is bad, it hurts my eyes like teargas and keeps me up at night (get it?). The only thing that I did enjoy was the songs from the 1st episode. I had really high hopes considering Dan Harmon was working on it, but, think that was just a selling point/marketing stunt. I wish I could continue to watch maybe out of sheer curiosity, but, I really don't like it... and I will not return for more episodes, 3 where enough for me.
