City Hunter ’91

I don’t think that City Hunter could ever have hoped to relive its glory days of late City Hunter 2, but ’91 has its moments. There are a few production aspects that I don’t quite agree with, but there are a pair of valuable Umibozu episodes and a surprise Makimura episode.

Honey and Clover – episode thirteen

“All I wanted to hear was that little thing”

I’m going to be honest: I’m not particularly sympathetic to Yamada’s unrequited love. I realised as I was watching this episode that, while I really care about everything else that’s going on in this show, I think that it’s written in such a way that Mayama’s obtuseness plays too well to Yamada’s obstinacy, making them never have to do anything.

“Traitor”

This series is pretty good, although I do have to wonder both what the deal with the ostrich is and just who all of these different factions are.

“Lily of the Valley”

Damnit, Emma! Don’t give me hope, give me results! Give me idealised fantasy life, not realistic social inevitablity!

“The sudden kiss, the unexpected parting”

I’m not convinced. Beyond the cut is spoileriffic.

Tide-Line Blue – episode 1

“Spirit”

In the future, the world will be flooded. In this flooded world will live a boy who dresses like something out of Gravitation, with a dark past, a carefree present, and a very rapidly darkening future destined to be interspersed with light comedy.

People say that Kamichu! is the “Ghibli-esque” of the season, but I see it’s Tide-Line Blue, not least because the character design is by Ghibli key animator Yamashita Akihiko. This is potentially a great adventure with an immersive world to play with … and I am, by default, a sucker for drowned worlds.
