qbottom 3 anime of 2019
I did not edit this lets get into QB’S THREE WORST ANIME OF 2019 contrary to my eventual best anime list this is about quality instead of how much I enjoyed it. I enjoyed Pastel Memories a great deal and everybody should watch it, except for episode 4. Don’t watch episode 4 - qb
3. Pastel Memories
I honestly love the idea of pastel memories, but it could not have been done more embarrassingly or had been more of a hot mess that you could call hit or miss except it never got a hit
Daikon IV extended to a full tv show even with a famously horny animator doing 90 seconds of it could have been a slam dunk for a more prestige studio that hasn’t produced exclusively unfortunate moldy garbage
In many ways reality was what kept pastel memories from reaching its potential, not just of what properties they would be legally allowed to rip off but the creative limits project no 9 is capable of; as this year has shown the only page in their playbook is very bad (average isekai and choyoyu are both indefensible)
its a great remembrance/10
2. Bermuda Triangle Colorful Pastrale
so many cineorbs
BTCP has a hecked up connection to the cardfight vanguard universe that is never, ever explored to even the smallest degree
this makes it technically canon with milky Holmes
The character designs are probably my biggest problem with it since everything about the mermaids and how they live bothers me
Their massive dead eyes are off-putting and the fish tails that they only use as an excuse to never have to animate movement are so lazy, they even have it rain underwater ala spongebob squarepants
The one episode they go on land and have legs is immediately lead into a panty shot which was functionally impossible in every previous episode
The last minute of the last episode shows them about to sing an idol song, in this show presumably about idols that constantly promises idols only none of them are idols or perform or sing anything, then it cuts unceremoniously to credits so that they dont have to record another song
1. Kanadagawa Jet Girls
Absolute shameless trash intended to sell a 74 dollar ps4 game to perverts, checks off the entire laundry list of pervert demands and teases lesbian couples without allowing them to actually go beyond flirting unless its incestuous, sets back the genres of sports and yuri about ten years, camera is a constant presence leering over anime girl ass in every single shot and is so intentionally voyeuristic the storyboarder should be arrested
I’m not even going to link the gif of their dumbass stripper racing butt cam but this anime advertises only its uncensored version for a reason, DM me for it if you’re that interested. (please do not actually do this)
