Paradise Kiss 2
Oct. 24th, 2005 01:17 pmTwo episodes in, and I'm seriously crushing on Paradise Kiss. Episode 2 was even more interesting than episode 1. Unless it spontaneously nosedives I think I'll be downloading all 12 or 13 episodes as they come out.
You know how one scene can cement your interest in a series? The scene in this episode where character A walks in on characters B and C damn near doing it on a pool table. Great scene. I'm so going to love this anime.
My only complaint still comes back to the use of super-deformed characters. The characters go SD at weird and unpredictable places, and mostly it feels off. For SD to be funny, it has to be well-timed and mesh with the moment. They keep missfiring on that. However, that's a very small aspect and certainly doesn't detract from my overall enjoyment.
