Harukanaru Toki no Naka de: Ajisai Yumegatari (original) (raw)

Listen. Myself and three other friends watched this together. We watch a lot of bad and confusing anime OVAs.

Not at any point did we know what was going on for more than 2-3 minutes at a time. The story was held together with gum and thumbtacks.

The character designs were unique and detailed and somehow INCREDIBLY DISTRACTING. We barely could keep them straight and no one was given enough screen time to have a moment to develop.

The first episode made two of us consider becoming un-sober because it wouldn't make a difference. The second one confirmed it would not have made a difference.

Honestly, we laughed a... ton--but only because we were riffing on it together.

Also the sub was an odd mix of not translating random Japanese words (as if we should know a bunch of random demon/priestess terminology offhand?) and translator notes ala "keikaku means plan".

Don't go into this expecting quality. Get your friends together and your mind-altering substance of choice and just vibe. Or skip it entirely and watch something better. Actually, probably do that.
