Yeah, this is def a show that somewhat tricks you about tone of the show with its first couple of episodes. I thought they show was going to go too far with corny comedy, but glad I stuck with it. I thought the story was actually very good and the backstory for the main characters are actually very well written. Action wise I don't think this show comes close to the regular sports anime because the set up for this show is a bit different in that regard, but I thought it did everything else well as the story progressed.Finished watching Oblivion Battery.
Honestly I never thought I would be calling a Mappa show a hidden gem of the season, but this one is surprisingly is. It starts out weird considering post amnesia Kei comedy is very corny. But slowly with the other teammates and their backstories the storytelling in this series really delivers. Then the season concludes of post amnesia Kei falling in love with baseball was a great way to conclude the season.
Not to mention that episode 11 is in competition for one of the best episodes for this year out of any show. Overall I give it 9/10 and a must watch for Baseball manga/anime fans.
At least the fights move along fast. Consider the fact that it's adapting 4-6 chapters per episode. Imagine how dragged out it would have been with the OG anime's pacing.Watching thousand year blood war part 2. Just finished episode 7
Gremmy vs Kenpachi has to be lowkey the funniest anime fight ever. It's just a competition as to who is more broken
It makes me wonder HOW in the world ichigo wasn't food to kenpachi the first time they encountered each other. He's literally the yujiro of the BLEACH world.
The rukia/byakuya episode had incredible direction and visuals as well. Its crazy that they finally gave rukia some shine. The villain was spooky
The main difference between part 1 and part 2 of this arc IMO is it is very villain of the week. It's 100% tailored to coli action gang. We only got like 5 seconds of yachiru and kenpachi backstory for example. I know that they are trying to give all the squads and captains their shine, but because there is constant fighting and everything being so split up, a lot of the characters we see are damn near cameo status. Characters can barely get a word in; even major ones. Any type of development story or character wise is being drip fed compared to part 1. These characters are really swinging on each other now.
Isn’t that a spoiler since anime only don’t know who is fighting who
