>>32946I just finished watching Id: Invaded.
Technical aspects first. The anime was good to look at and was well animated with occasional lazy animation that flare up during action scenes. The character designs are good except for the outdated unfunny joke of using a 23yo succubus that looks like a 12yo with a fat ass.
The soundtrack was forgettable and they looks like they felt the need to use english background tracks to appeal to the funimation audience. The OP and ED was bad and completely worth skipping.
The anime pretty much ripped off ideas from Inception mostly, source code and the other popular police procedural anime like GitS and Psycho-Pass. To someone who hasn't watched Inception this would be groundbreaking but the Inception ripoff, including some plot points make it a really distasteful experience.
For me the twist was really bad. I hated the fact that
The serial killers were incited into becoming serial killers, so they weren't technically in the wrong so that the audience don't feel bad for supporting the two serial killers who form a part of the main cast. Lazy excuses.
I'm also tired of the
evangelion shit that the directors felt compelled to include in. Why must all anime shout out to
evangelion? Just do something original instead.
Why must every anime I see these days start strong and end up being a massive disappointment?
3/5
