    Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

    ★★★★½

    Fucking incredible, especially as a huge DnD nerd. Sure they play kinda fast and loose with the rules here but it’s so much fun I can give it the “rule of cool” pass. 

    Worst things about it both unfortunately surround Doric: her having an absolutely terrible and lacking Tiefling design, and the super unnecessary romantic subplot between her and Simon. 

    Otherwise hilarious and I could see a one shot or maybe a few sessions of a campaign going down this…

    We really don’t make em like we used to, which is to say, a mess of story telling that is still able to get everything across while also being animation that is unique and interesting to watch.

    Also get yourself a friend like Cinderella.

    Self hatred, addiction, and horrible beauty standards come to life in this disturbing horror movie, which ended up being way grosser than I expected, and I expected it to be REALLY gross. 

    So upsetting and stomach churning, but that’s just how affective its effects, story, and performances are. 

    Also really funny at times! Jokes but also intentionally campy moments that either were referencing or at least in the style of some really classic horror films. Just so well done and executed.

    Really can’t think of more to say now, maybe check back for an edit later, in summary, VERY very good.

    Fucking amazing fantastic anime both in look and feel. So many moving part that go together so well….until the last episode lol. It doesn’t exactly fall apart but it gets a little too convoluted and lazy at the same time. 
    Still the character writing is solid all the way through, I can see myself rewatching this whole thing in a couple years and loving it just as much, maybe even more after watching more Gundam!
