Having finished the series, it left me a bit nonplussed. The main character is Mitsumi Iwakura, an earnest girl from the countryside who attends high school in Tokyo to follow her dreams of becoming a politician who can revive her hometown. Her friends play leading roles, but the co-main character is Sōsuke Shima, an attractive young man and former child actor who takes a liking to Mitsumi. The entire series is pleasant enough, handled with care (see animation analysis) and I never considered not seeing it through to the end. But while I have high tolerance for slow-paced shows and proverbial \"slice of life* pieces, but Skip to Loafer took my tolerance a bit too far. Mitsumi is charming, but not particularly interesting. Souske sees some solid development in the end, but we never get to know him quite well enough to make his past engaging. I could see a second season improving on the first with the initial character intros done, but the first, standing alone, was decent albeit forgettable.\n(The opening song and animation is very good, however.)\n#SkipToLoafer #anime", - "link": "https://memos.emucafe.org/m/21", - "publishedOn": "2023-06-23T02:44:00.000Z", - "wordCount": 21, - "title": "Final thoughts: *Skip to Loafer*", - "imageUrl": null - }, - { - "id": "https://memos.emucafe.org/m/20", - "author": null, - "description": "Penultimate episode thoughts: My Clueless First Friend\nMy Clueless First Friend is one of the better anime series of the season. I thought that episode 12, which aired on Sunday, was the final episode. It featured the most relationship development for the 5th grade main character duo and would have been a fine place to leave off. I was surprised at the end of the episode to see that there will be a 13th and final episode with 10 years later in the title. While my assumption is that it will be a dream episode (my understanding is that the manga is ongoing), ending with a legitimate 10-year after look would be an interesting way to conclude an anime about a 5th grade boy extending a hand to a lonely girl and becoming aware of special feelings (the clueless concept is hardly extendable as they grow older). I'm curious to see what the finale is. A good finale would make My Clueless First Friend a viable year-end top six candidate.\n#anime #MyCluelessFirstFriend", - "link": "https://memos.emucafe.org/m/20", - "publishedOn": "2023-06-23T02:36:32.000Z", - "wordCount": 21, - "title": "Penultimate episode thoughts: *My Clueless First Friend*", - "imageUrl": null } ] }, diff --git a/feed.atom b/feed.atom index 31a1da2..5f64086 100644 --- a/feed.atom +++ b/feed.atom @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ https://nafnlj.github.io/nljfeeds/index.html New Leaf Journal Feeds - 2023-07-22T14:09:10.250Z + 2023-07-22T20:10:07.407Z osmosfeed 1.15.1 @@ -1161,29 +1161,4 @@ An Introduction to RSS and Other Feed Formats]]> Nicholas A.
