Review of Sing "Yesterday" for Me
I don’t mind slow stories . I like sometime emotional stuff, real feelings, all that. But this show? It’s like watching people emotionally procrastinate for twelve episodes straight. Rikuo spends the whole time being confused about his life and love life, Shinako’s out here collecting regrets like Pokémon, and Haru’s just the chaotic crow girl trying to inject some energy into the world’s quietest soap opera. Spoiler: it doesn’t work. It’s not that it’s bad it’s too real sometimes. The problem is that “real” doesn’t always mean entertaining. After a few episodes, I stopped feeling sad for the characters and started yelling “please just talk toeach other” at my screen.
The art? Gorgeous. The music? Melancholic in a nice way. The story? Imagine emotional limbo stretched into an entire season.
moody, mature, but painfully stuck in neutral.
