/jp/ - Otaku Culture

[Anonymous No.]

The only other Type-Moon I watched was Fate/Stay and I fairly enjoyed it but I can’t say the same for KnK.
I enjoyed the music, really beautiful (but kind of boring) and despite being typical Yuki Kajiura fare it fits the tone of the series pretty well.
The same can be said for the movie series as a whole, beautiful to look at but honestly boring. All the characters spew a bunch of psuedo-intellectual crap to make the series seem deeper than it actually is.
All the characters seem to go through some kind of development but it appears stilted or forced to me, perhaps because I’m not otaku enough to learn jap and read the novels to get a better idea of the story.
Characters talk and do unrealistic things, without much explanation, reason or growth. Most of them seem to stagnate until there is a need for a convenient deus ex machina or to simply fulfill a kink of the author.
Also the whole bullcrap about killing and being killed. It started out alright, pretty interesting but by the end of the story it was so convoluted that it started to become ridiculous. I’d rather my romantic bullshit be outright labeled as romantic bullshit than have it be preached to me under the guise of crap philosophy.
My verdict for KnK: Overrated.

Pretty much right.
It's still a great series.
Would be amazing if the last episode was cut down to about 20 minutes long that were actually interesting.
