If EDP445 and Weevil Underwood from Yu-Gi-Oh made hentai, it would still probably be easier to sit through than this movie. Unlikeable characters making bafflingly awful decisions and getting brutally killed by giant insects for roughly two hours pretty much sums up the entirety of this snuff film....
MAL says this needs review needs more info, so let's answer the prompt questions:
Is the story unique? If it was predictable, did you enjoy it anyway because you like this genre/set-up? Think of how you would survive an island of giant bugs, the characters will then proceed to do the exact opposite. They only make a half-decent

I waited to give this show a shot, and I wasn't disappointed. Unironically, this was better than Progressive or alternative. The show takes place over the course of one event, each episode focusing on a different character's perspective and, if you're able to follow along, fills in the blanks in regard to the events of that day. It does all the emotional beats well, and I enjoyed the frenetic animation style. It's definitely different, just like the original was in 2000. I wouldn't say this is as good as the original, the pacing felt sluggish at times even at 2x speed, and some of the

Just typing 'Pure cringe' is all the effort a review for this show deserves. TL;DR Imagine Pop Team Epic if every joke was replaced with TikTok brain rot.
(This show is bad enough that I refuse to commit names to memory) The blond girl is basically just Meg from Family guy, there for the sole purpose of being a punchline..... I've just described every character in the show, they're not 'characters' so much as they are vehicles for the next joke, deer girl being the worst offender. This wouldn't be a problem if the jokes were something more than 'Ah, a weird thing happened, ...

Putting half effort into this review, just like the show put half effort into its premise. In most episodes, they only spend around half the episode with the titular spider, and that's in a good episode. The rest is bog standard isekai drivel that we've all seen a billion times before. If it was just another cookie-cutter isekai I probably would've given it a 6, as everything from music to the animation to the character designs are painfully generic, except for the cgi monsters, for the most part they looked alright as far as cgi goes, and I liked kumuko's designs more as she evolved...

It's been a few years, but now that the dust has seemingly settled, let's get down to business. Without getting into spoilers, I unironically flip between giving this show an 8 or a 9. 8.5 would be perfect. I wholeheartedly believe that at least 50-60% of the negative reviews are from people who saw the brutal 1st episode and got triggered.
This show is dark, it's edgy for the sake of edge, but unlike something trash like Akame Ga Kill, Redo of Healer is self-aware enough to revel in it's absurd trashiness without falling off the edge and into the abyss. If you're an adult ...

Caught up as of (10 JAN 2023):
A tale of two manga, the first part is a pretty amazing gorefest, if you're looking for that sort of thing, which I was. It gets pretty messed up both physically and psychologically and couldn't recommend it enough to any horror fan.... That 2nd Part though.... We need to acknowledge that atrocity. Once we're introduced to the Trump character the series takes a literary nosedive. I think 'orange man bad' is a pretty trash meme to begin with and shoehorning it into every element of the story was a disaster waiting to happen. The mangaka comes off as such a triggered ... |
