Such a caricature of itself that it often dips into absurdist comedy and succeeds? When its a parody, it's like watching Looney Tunes or Darkwing Duck. Cartoonishly referential. When it's fetishizing noir, it staggers around. Gets "good" (read "better") around the end of the 2nd act where the money stylish sequences and insane set pieces kick in (Samuel L. Jackson in full Nazi regalia), the kind of batshit spectacle that glues eyes to screens. Overtly shot on a closed set, there's maybe one shot in an actual city. Where this works in original noirs, doesn't really work here. Some outlandish

Perfect adaptation of the Reze arc. The music was exceptional, haunting, and beautiful. Action decadent and absurd though apparent some heavy action sequences ran out of budget, but overall gets the attention that this arc commands. Tone shifts at the right time, good use of humor but nothing that will take you completely out of the tension. Japanese VA incredible. This is truly "the right stuff". Love the reflexive commentary on films and movie going. Accurately captures young love, the messiness, the volatility, poor decision making, going all in, and the burns. Everyone can see themselves in Denji and Reze.
Day 24 - Rowdy
