Kyosogiga is so delightful, even if it isn’t about anything, like in this episode. Whereas the previous installments were about something heartfelt, this was about a lost remote (no, really). But there is just so much passion put into this show that it doesn’t matter how silly it is.
This is a short post because the episode itself also was just seven minutes long, but I just have to talk about this show and highlight what a wonderful project this is (I’ll also do this with Masaaki Yuasa’s upcoming project when it gets released). Screw the standard episode length of 20 minutes if 6 minutes also fits this show well. This episode had plenty of style to make up for it and the animation in particular just went all out.
And again this is more than just style over substance because it did create a very enjoyable cast of characters with very simple means. The crow chase scene in particular was great, and even though the henchmen of that one girl were all huge stereotypes, they were also for the first ime in a long while actually lovable. They’re different from the usual thugs you see who always yell at every opportunity. It’s a small difference, but definitely stands out here.
BEST. ONA. EVER.
I also do enjoy Kyousogiga a lot. Even though, there is no story (yet to be seen). It wouldn’t surprise me, if it would remain like that. Also interesting was, that the actual “Main Character” had such a small role in this episode. A pity, that the releases are so far apart.
I really liked the original a lot! So, they are doing full series now? Yay! How many episodes and what is the release schedule like?
This series is a ton of fun. What more can one say about it? It’s a talented team of animators having a lot of fun with their subject matter, reminiscent of FLCL, Noiseman sound insect, and a little bit of Horizon on the middle of nowhere (the crow chase scene reminded me a good deal of the first episode of Horizon).
