I have more than one screenshot folder open when I watch a show. The first has all the screenshots I take of the show, where anything interesting, background, line, etc. might appear. These folders are massive. The second is where I collect the most useful “reaction faces” and such. Some shows, some episodes yield 0 results for it, while others yield ~10. Then I have a folder where the most important and/or beautiful moments of a show are collected, moments that would be useful when writing a post, to encapsulate the episode, or to drive home a point about it. Most episodes get roughly 4-10 screenshots in this folder. Rare shows that have a lot to say or are very beautiful get about 20. This episode of Kiznaiver had 69 bloody images.
Before I move on to point out similarities, I want to make it clear that this show is gorgeous. Just keep in mind I’m actually positive on the show’s presentation as you read the following segments.
Talking about that, let’s get it out of the way first. Kiznaiver is a pretentious show. No, no, I’m not talking about how people use “pretentious”, I mean that on the visual level, where it pretends it’s a Shaft production. I mean, if someone had told me director Kobayashi Hiroshi had
Before I provide the answer, here are a couple more lines, less “Thematic” and more “Emotional”, lines that would be great if we heard them 8-10 episodes into the show, as characters are forced to admit them through what they undergo:
Why is she giving this to us now, rather than rob us of it happening later? Well, because the show isn’t about these things. The show isn’t about understanding these obvious lessons. And since these lessons are obvious, why am I so bothered that the show is spelling them out now? Because it’s crass storytelling, and because real people don’t act like that, mostly. But if we accept for a moment that saying all of these things from the get-go isn’t a mistake in storytelling, what then?
Even if I accept that Okada knows where she’s steering this ship (beyond “tears and heartache”), the show is still heavy-handed in how it’s been presenting its storytelling, how much exposition there is, how little the characters are actually coming through. What this episode did was present us the premise we entered into this episode with, “A bunch of teenagers are connected via a sci-fi premise, where they will grow to understand one another.” That is almost the “All-Okada Show”‘s premise. It still didn’t actually do much. And what it did do, it did by hammering us over the head with. I think even these premises which we take for granted could’ve been woven more comfortably, especially as the characters still need to grow to accept it themselves.
But, the way you present it, the lame pun is the reason you’re thinking of dropping the show, not its characters, plot, etc.? I guess visuals can stand in to balance a facepalm at puns 😉
Kiznaiver is more than just pretty though, it’s actually
All except Katsuhira are initially disbelieving, but when Tenga gets slapped for coming onto a girl named Nico, they all feel pain and realize that the connection does indeed exist. Sonozaki attacks Katsuhira, leaving a jagged scar on everyone’s wrist as she proclaims them to be “Kiznaivers”.
