Review of Aura: Koga Maryuin's Last War
It was fine. Characters were taking stuff so seriously that I figured it would lead to a bigger conclusion then, "Life kinda sucks some times, AmIRite." There were subtle hints that there might actually be a conspiracy here. The teacher was kind of an ass, the girl can copy voices too well, the family acts kinda suspiciously when Ichirou comes home, and Ryouko built a palace out of school desks in an afternoon. For a while I was thinking maybe the main character actually seriously hurt someone with his chunni tenancies, or maybe attempted suicide. That could explain some stuff more clearly. Instead he gotbeaten by his parents for having an imaginary girl friend. Don't get me wrong, I can see how that would be traumatic, but for me that comes off as a massive over reaction. Cultural stigmas don't translate well, I guess.
Oh yeah, and the R+ rating was forced in there, for a blatant fan service scene.
