I am hopefully casting off the doldrums
of blog hiatus and starting up regular posts with this posts today.
As usual one of my regular deals is to review the first episode of
every show I watch. I don't know how long I will walk this proverbial
minefield for your hopeful benefit. With this particular post I tell
you about the first three shows that I have seen this season, all of
them on Crunchy roll.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Diamond is
Unbreakable
One day in the town of Morioh Jotaro
arrives to inform Josuke that he is a member of the Joestar clan and
entitled to part of his father's fortune as well as to avoid some
mysterious threat. However Josuke possesses a supernatural power
known as a stand. I rarely review season four of a given franchise in
these overviews but I find this show to be a special case. I have
found this show to be a bit slower than your usual Jojo fare but I
have heard good things about this section of the show and it still
felt good enough that I will continue watching.
Mayogiga (aka The lost village)
A bus with 30 people who wish to do
their lives over again heads for the mysterious town of Nanaki.
However there subtle hints that not all is going to end well. I found
the first episode to be mostly setup since so many characters are
difficult to remember and although I don't feel it is a modern
classic it looks like it could be at least a decent show if you like
mystery and possibly horror shows.
Ace Attorney
Naruhodo is a brand new attorney ready
to taken on his first case. To start out he is tasked with proving
his friends innocence in a murder trial. This show is based off of a
series of games known in America as Phoenix Wright. I found the first
episode to be merely passable but from most mystery shows (and any
work about the legal process counts) tend to use the first episode as
a mere proof of concept and are never among the best episodes.
