Cold Front

Short itch.io VN, it has a 2.5D perspective and a little bit of movement sometimes but it is a VN; at a more technical level there are some flaws, I had some lag spikes when I shouldn't have given the game is a VN and some sounds looped with the moment they looped being very apparent, howerver that didn't affect my enjoyement of the game too much

I really don't have much to say about this game, it's kinda cute which is what you expect from this type of game, the art is good (the author 100% draws yaoi), as I said very short, took me less than an hour to beat, while it has some horror elements that try to be psychological, the game isn't really about thinking, as everything is explained by the end, no room for interpretation, I think this is a good move as the game is much more focused on the feelings

not the best itch.io VN i've played but this was enjoyable

Placed in C tier

oh i remember this one...! im glad to see its still meaningful to someone, it was neat :> i think i primarily loved the artstyle and the characters and their interpersonal dynamics, this had crazy good sense of art direction honestly from everything to backgrounds and color palettes and ui, it was satisfyingly sentimental and winnie & augustine were easy enough to sympathize with as more was revealed

but i did forget most of it like i do with nearly every game or piece of media

i remember dead plate too, i have vague memories of enjoying both of them during a lot of the dialogue and cg scenes but mostly held onto the parts nearest to the end like cold front's stairs and dead plate's manager and the Room

cool ^^

Touge Oni: Primal Gods in Ancient Times

Hard-carried by good art

This is an adventure manga where as the title suggest they meet ancient gods and other equally powerful creatures. If i'm being honest, the story is pretty weak, there is no real final goal, it doesn't try to really say anything, it's just adventure for adventure sake, which some people will undeniably enjoy

What this manga really has is good art, the art is very polished, it has a lot of visual clarity, the panel structure is also really well done, everything flows really smoothly and they also use the technique of having some drawings break out of the panel which may seem small but actually adds so much. The setting is interesting and the character designs are all very pretty, to top that of, there are some REALLY original panels, like stuff I haven't really seen ever

as an example, this pannel (box because technically is a spoiler I guess)


however this is not a shin'ichi manga where the stories are built in a way that allows him to spam full page/full spread panels too, in fact, this manga doesn't really have those moments at all, or even big panels like that. I find it impressive that the author can cram stuff so cool in panels that in many other mangas would just be filler. I still prefeer the shin'ichi style but honestly this proves something, this sets a precedent that you can make the small stuff really impressive artistically.

In many ways, this reminds me of dorohedoro. While dorohedoro is way more over the top, they both just create really unique settings to make every panel interesting, and while dorohedoro was fairly standard in it's art and paneling and mainly just created all of it's appeal with the setting, touge oni mixes in a lot of modern techniques and their own more experimental ideas to do the same thing but better. I like this more than dorohedoro

so yeah, while I didn't care about the story at all, I still really appreciate this manga. Placed in B tier,

------

started cyberpunk, have my complaints
decided not to watch the psycho-pass sequels right now and start hellsing ultimate, will watch the sequels later.
next: Hell screen

Hell Screen

A japanese short story written in 1918, it's good. It's about an artist who gets obsessed in it's own work leading to him making awful things.

I admit it's well written and engaging from start to end, however, it didn't resonate too much with me, it doesn't really seem that there is too much meat to this short story. If anything, the most interesting thing it does is the end (not a spoiler because it's a japanese short story from 1918 you're not reading it anyways), where the guy finishes the hell screen, and well, it turns out it's like really fucking good which leads to everyone kinda forgiving him. That point of how you can be an awful person but be able to create banger art. Which i'm pretty sure was pretty interesting and groundbreaking in 1918, but nowadays, in 2024, there are many other books that explore the same topics and do it better

also, unrelated, but when I was reading the book, I searched some of the names online to see if this was based on a IRL story or if it was purely fiction, and while it is entirerily fiction, I stumbled the entire thing reuplaoded to the "Creepypasta fandom wiki"?, which like, what the fuck, this isn't even horror, yes it's a dark story, but it's not horror, it's not scary.

I'm kinda indeferent torwards this short story, placed in B rank

--------

i'm still playing cyberpunk and watching hellsing ultimate
nothing else to read

Hellsing: Ultimate

This is an anime about people beating each other up, and it's one of the better ones.

Hellsing is about vampires and vampire-hunting organizations mixed in with churches and stuff, it's pretty sick, however, as you may expect it's not explored too deeply as the point is the action and gore and fights, something i'm not too into. So kinda the biggest exploration of it is how they adapt guns to be effective against vampires.

This is also a OVA, so it's 10 episodes, but 10 episodes of varying length, being 40+ minutes long, the artstyle is also fairly unique, it has high production value and the character designs are all very recognizable, specially alucard. This high production value really helps the anime, more here than in many other animes. A frenetic anime is going to have more complex set scenes and animation than a more calm anime, so here, the animation works really well with all of the gore and visceral scenes.

The actual plot isn't bad either, as I say it isn't exactly ambitious, the focus of hellsing is not on the plot, but what they have works.

This anime have also some fairly comedic moments, something I didn't expect, but again, it does work because of the juxtaposition

placed in B rank

next: nothing

Alucard is iconic.
