Towanoquon: The Ephemeral Petals · review
This is my first review and I'm not really sure how to write this but ill try to... I should say this first: Towa no quon, despite the pretty good character design, art, and action scenes, did not reach my expectations. The story was the usual cliche: powerful boy tries to save everyone from bad guys. There weren't anything unexpected for me. The art was pretty nice, the characters looked great, the amusement park looked cool. So not much criticism on that one. I didn't have the sound on, so I can't comment on it. The characters were the worst of the lot. They, especially Quon, looked good but thepersonalities were just dull. Especially Quon. I read another review that said all Quon says is "I want to save everyone." Watched the anime. So true. The whole "saving people thing" was about 50% of all he says. "I want to save everyone." "I want to save her." "I did this because I want to save everyone." He should have more personality and say something MORE INTERESTING. At least he isn't a total weakling. The other characters were nothing memorable so I don't really care.
For some reason, despite all these critics, I actually enjoyed some parts in it, like the action scenes and the last ten minutes of it. However, there are definitively better animes to watch than this one.
So in the end, I rated this a 7/10 due to character design, action, and art.
