the snail

[seichan]

Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 1-2! a young girl, Mirai (ha, ha), totally jaded and bored with life experiences an 8.0 earthquake.

+ Nice, simple animation
- Somewhat depressing and overly sappy

Quick impression~ This show is tries to take a realistic approach to the experience of an earthquake and the aftermath. Mirai and her little brother are visiting Odaiba when the earthquake strikes. They are helped by a random woman. For a story where my disinterest is at a high level, the 2 episodes went by quickly and created a twinge of curiosity.

Bakemonogatari 3! Koyomi Araragi and Hitagi flirt a bit before Araragi notices a young girl who seems to be lost; a lost snail? In contrast to TM 8.0, despite how awesome this episode looked, it moved at a snail's pace, but hit a better note near the end of the episode.
