Kimera

I finished this a while ago but didn't really feel like making a post for it. This will be short.

The movie was ok. A lot of people bash it and call it the worst anime movie ever (or at least one of the worst) so maybe it was that mindset that allowed me to get some enjoyment out of it. That is, it isn't anywhere near as bad as people make it out to be. That isn't to say that it isn't flawed. It's got very little character development, the plot is strange and isn't very fleshed out, and it's probably too short (it'd need more time if it were to do a proper job of fleshing out plot/characters.) However, it kept me interested throughout and it had some decently done action/fight scenes. I didn't really care all that much about what was happening but it entertained, which is something.

While it certainly isn't something to go out of one's way to watch, Kimera is still a tolerable movie that you might watch if you're very bored one night with nothing better to do. It isn't the worst anime movie ever, at least. I'm torn between giving it a 5 and a 6. It's probably closer to a 5.

Right now I AM following an anime, just haven't been providing updates. Anime of choice is Berserk, I'm 15 episodes in. Manga is kind of a mixed bag right now, waiting on my final Dragon Head volumes to get here and I'm juggling a few series online, but I haven't spent much time on manga at all lately.
