I've never seen it. Is it any good? I remember reading a few episode summaries, but never took the time to watch an ep.

Natsu no Arashi is really good, for many reasons. As long as you don't get put off by the first episode's look and can instead appreciate the comedy.

The action was alright, I'll admit that. The fall from the bathroom was one of the more interesting use of troll physics that I've seen. But the films 'plot' was never built upon, not even once. They presented you all these semi-interesting scenes with no backing more than the hypocrite club telling them to go kill some more pedos. I wouldn't even bootleg that shit were it a feature film.

That WAS the plot though, the fall of the hypocrite club. What more do you really need? The lack of various background info is a classic element of film noir, and sudden expositions are rare as well. It was what it was.

There were definitely more than two, usually involving dude with the glasses. Random BJs and rape. etc etc with unnecessarily long amounts of time spent on said scenes.

There was one dedicated scene with fatso. The rest was sort of background stuff.

Oh, cool shit, I might actually give that a watch then.

I swear, I went from no backlog to a bit of one within what feels like mere moments.

Mezzo Forte part 1


Sick fucker who ever made this?

So does it count as incest if a girl has the hots for her dad, has dream about him confessing his love to her then fucking her upside the head(dude huge in her dreams), when he fills her up with his thick love juice till her body is squirting it back out, at this point she loving the dream till it turns into nightmare for her, as her dad tags her male friend who likes her then starts fucking her.

It’s also said that her dream are prediction and that they come true. another hint given when her male friend wants to take her out, her dad comments saying he’s too young for you(they look the same age)

Substance, and I've read/watched a ton of film-noir/neo film noir media that's had plenty of it. That generalization definitely isn't working as well as you're thinking. Even if the past isn't portrayed all that deeply, initially, things closer to the moment could have been slowly expanded upon; things such as sawa & oberi's relationship. Left as it was, it seemed like they went from 0-90 within seconds. And that's just one example.

Yeah... I actually lol'd a bit when reading my last post. It's pretty damn explicit. Not the usual anime thread talk, I'm guessing.

Not really. Within the context of the characters and the greater hell that the two have lived through, sudden attachment would make sense, and the narrative did well to imply "TIME PASSES" and such. It's not that they're going 0-90 in seconds, it's that you're not seeing the interim space. Plus, Oberi kinda told Sawa the truth about Akai.

I like how everyone looks apart from beast(reminds of that show with dude with a tiger face)



edit
oh half of kite is just hentai the rest of it is just some half assed story

in space of 55min there's a lot of rape/sex(all of it might well be rape because sawa is that guys sex slave)

1 long sex scene with sawa saying she don't wanna get fuck but still gets fucked
2 little girl get raped by giant lanky pink hair guy
3 sawa raped as little girl
4 long ass rape scene in front of oburi

Iceman would have had a better shot if he had boobs. Besides, the lack of Shadowcat is way more egregious.

It really didn't.
and Oberi telling Sawa about Akai wasn't some grand revelation that furthered their dealings, in fact; it didn't mean anything, as she already knew and had been waiting on the opportunity to get them back. They probably wanted you to infer that having a partner made the decision easier for her, with her eying his skill level and all, but that wasn't done well at all.

Ugh... it's been a while since I've seen it, so I'm not 100% on the pacing, but I still disagree with you. I just can't cite any specific scenes within that realm, so for now, agree to disagree. I found the pacing really solid and the character development solid within the context of their pasts.

All in all, if you're watching Kite/Mezzo Forte for anything more than the balls to the wall crazy action sequences you're likely doing it wrong.

Funny thing is oburi completely useless in the end and she ends up doing everything her self.

I agree that sawa and oburi relationship was very half assed, they meet only meet twice for brief moment and they already out no where decided to run away with each other

I'm really not feeling Beast's design at all. On the other hand, Storm with short hair looks HAWT, surprising no one.

Still not watching it. Sorry, Duckroll.

So it isn't a maid show, or it is but it's not shitty, because they don't really act like maids, but wait it has nothing to do with maids?

You guys are confusing! I guess I could try watching it, although I didn't even really like SZS so I have a feeling SHAFTO probably isn't for me. Except PMMM, but I'm saving the rest of that for when it
never
finishes.
Click to expand...

It's not about maids, it's about eccentric people who do wacky things, including some of them working at an offbeat maid cafe run by an eccentric old lady. And it's one of the best anime comedies in the last few years.

No, I think it's actually -good-. It's just that the low ass expectations made it feel like the second coming of Christ.

That's an...interesting way to parse it. Wacky anime comedy rarely ever works for me, but I suppose it never hurts to try something.

It's not particularly wacky in the sense of really wacky anime humor, it's more just offbeat and character-based humor.

Working2? Less Inami, more Yamada, I'm down. And I guess Yamada is actually twenty or something. I was surprised.

Also for news no one cares about--I guess they announced a new season of chainsaw zombie.

Mezzo Forte part1 and 2

OK better then kite but it pretty much even more disgusting hentai then kite.(200% more cum in the air)its like one guy wanted to make an action anime, while the other wanted to make hentai.

2 sex scenes that are even longer then kite ones and far more disgusting (plot twist sex).

Kite is just hentai, while mezzo forte is hentai with better story and action
