Seinto Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac (2019)
it's not the original {nothing is} but it's not too bad.
It's not that bad.
there's a few problems like the animation is bad.
other things had me on the fence like switching the gender of andromeda shun.
to be honest. andromeda makes more sense as a girl now that i have seen the show. i forgot his armor even has breasts.
maybe it was a political move by netflix. but really it spares me some yaoi with cygnus later on.
so even though their reasons were the absolute worst {pandering} i am actually satisfied with the result.
the animation is cheap looking. but everything is nowadays.
this animation is looking triple a plus friggin amazing compared to the other female saints show that came out around january. that animation is 2d and is much worse than the one on this show. so now i am glad that they made this 3dcgi. they really were never going to put the effort to animate like they did the original. and they won't be able to show as much violence, and i am sure when they destroy a pillar or a rock it won't be as epic as it was before.
but i wasn't expecting sometihng made in 2019 to compete with the absolute masterpiece that is saint seiya's original run.
for what it was, and if you keep your expectations in check... this is better than any other cgi show anyways, at least the characters are ON MODEL in this remake.
if you compare to something like berserk, that looks like an absolute amateur made the 3d models. this one is okay...
The Orville: Identity, Part II (2019)
setting the bar
Best episode in the series so far.
the special effects are on par with the film adaptations of star trek, at least during the action sequences {some of the scenes involving the shuttle look weak, as they have in other episodes}
thrilling action on this episode.
the orville is a hit or a miss depending on the episode, but this one was superb.
glad i gave it a watch.
Cloak & Dagger (2018)
another superhero show without anything super or heroic
This is a straight up drama. similar to all the other marvel shows (they are all pretty bad)
i am not a huuge fan of cloak and dagger comics. but i liked it in the 80s.
it was a drama for sure. and it was slower paced. but the potential was there to do a lot more, especially with the tv show.
