Reviews
Very much an anime-style live action.
Overall, it is what it says on the tin. A mind-free action comedy.Personally wasn’t all too sure about Raul’s yankee talk, felt a little idol-actor to me (which, to be fair, he is), however Tsuchiya Tao really stole the show here. The eccentricity and costume paired with, by far, the most entertaining and interesting character.
Plot wise it felt pretty standard, and as far as live action adaptations go, visually, they went the eccentric, anime-style route, which, to their credit, worked well paired with the over the top, anime-style acting.
Personally, the music detracted in a few moments for me. Might be a personal taste thing but there you go. Personally won’t revisit this.
