While my personal rubric tries to account for the variance of subjective opinion that certain anime will prompt, Promare takes subjectivity to such an extreme that any rating I give is essentially meaningless. Promare is one of those peculiar movies that breaks the traditional quantitative ratings scale. The action and the overall aesthetic of the film were great breadwinners in the grand scheme, and if that is enough to come by for you, this is a top priority.

Any scene featuring one of the three brings the film to full momentum, and it made the experience more engrossing than I originally thought it'd be.įor what I predicted would be a simply goofy and fun experience, Promare managed to push the envelope in ways I didn't expect, that I'm suddenly compelled to give it a second viewing ASAP. every one of their arcs were manuevered in ways that helped to give a more complex background to their usual archetypes. When it comes to the central characters- Galo, Lio, and Kray.

Still, the movie makes due with brimming as much personality out of each one, thus making them more memorable. With the abundance of side characters and a limited runtime, it comes to reason that not every character would get the opportunity to shine. His performance was one easily one of my favorites I've had in some time. However, the scene-stealer of them all was the voice of Galo: Billy Kamentz, a recently rising star in the dub community. There are plenty of seasoned veterans aboard such as Jonny Yong Bosch, Crispin Freeman, Kari Walgren and the imcomparable Steve Blum, all of whom are fantastic. Parts of it reminded me of the cheesy yet wildly personality-driven days of FLCL and Outlaw Star. Having saw the English dub, I feel it's worth mentioning that its a worthy dub. Apart from the cool electronic sounds giving a sense to the world present, some of the themes were well done and haven't left my head since watching the film yesterday the two standout tracks being 'Kakusei' and 'Inferno.' That said, there are moments of Hiroyuki Sawano's music that genuinely felt in-place and stood out in that regard. I'm also not one for what are labeled as 'hype soundtracks.' Most tend to leave me with an empty feeling afterwards. Most of the time, you even forget that you're essentially watching simple shapes take form into bigger pieces of a picture.

Not to mention some creative uses of lighting and an impressive interpretation of fire. It's amazing to see such proudly ridiculous character/model designs play off in equally proud, ridiculous animated environments. As someone whose least favorite genre in media is action, I can say that every fight sequence felt so invigorating and a breath of fresh air. Hands down, it's the best part of the film. Any person even seeing a lick of promotional material for Promare may guess that it's main selling point is the animation and striking art style. If it weren't for the visual department. Some points of the 2-hour long film would tend to drag a lot more. The fact that the movie is generally fast-paced helps to alleviate the pain of prolonging twists you already see coming. Some twists lay into predictability (, while others are much more ham-fisted in the sense of the film's more playful nature, which is a big plus. It makes for a simpler, more forgiving experiece if you keep this idea in mind. However, the intentions of Imaishi and the rest of the Promare crew leaned less in that direction, and rather go into the feeling of the story's actions through visuals. The story itself doesn't bring too much in original event-turning or a groundbreaking moral or message.

I can safely say that its the latter choice. The first question I had going in: would the film be 'stupid' stupid, or gleefully/awarely stupid. With Promare being their debut feature film, I decided to catch the earliest screening I could, bringing nothing but miniscule knowledge of the film's details and a cautiously optimistic expectation. Nevertheless, these credentials were enough to show me the unlimited potential that the studio could bring to the buffet known as anime. Fate grand order barghest fanfiction.My experience with Studio Trigger's, as well as director Hiroyuki Imaishi's work, is minimal: as of this review, I've watched Darling In The Franxx (which I loved despite its great shortcomings) and SSSS Gridman (which I pretty much disliked except when Trigger's animation was involved).
