Review of Sing "Yesterday" for Me
Without a doubt the disappointment of the season, a work that had a lot of potential, but that not only rushed to finish it, but also they could not take advantage of its history, transforming it into something that seemed like child's play. In the first chapters my expectations for this anime were quite high, the animation seemed simply beautiful to me and the character design was quite well achieved, even the story at first interested you and encouraged you to get into it: the message you I was trying to convey "how difficult it is to choose your path in life and the difficulty thatappears in life when you become one, all this at first seemed fresh and well accomplished, even the love trio between the protagonists had a good start.
The problem came when we met the real badly worked personalities of the protagonists from the middle of the story and how this "Love Triangle" seemed more like child's play than an attempt to recreate an adult relationship.
Shinako was the biggest problem, her story is just stupid, and they never knew how to make sense of either her actions or her selfishness.
Because ?, Simple, the character is horribly misspelled and it is not difficult to realize, not even in its end did they try to reflect on the character in the mistakes he made, leaving that weight entirely to uozumi, who was not a good character either as such, but consider his behavior more logical, apart from the fact that at the end he himself assumed his error, giving a complete update to the character himself, and one for good, this did not happen at any time with Shinako.
Rou's involvement in the story was also a complete mistake, a boy who falls in love with an older person and lives blinded by ignorance and other victims affected by Shinako's own badly working selfishness, but still that doesn't take away from the fact how pathetic the character was, and how unnecessary trying to get him into the drama of the "Love Triangle".
Then we had Haru, who was undoubtedly the attraction of the anime, a completely wasted character who instead of welcoming him to the leading role, decided that it was the "Fanservice" of the play.
Both it was as if during the 12 chapters they did not even deign to give a development to the character, their function was simply to be "the second option of the protagonist" and here that implies the hasty end of the work.
Anyway, I could talk more but I think that watching the anime yourself can realize these failures, but of course this is just my opinion.
A wasted anime that could have been my best times, in a failed attempt to represent an adult relationship, accompanied by the drama that life can offer reaching adulthood, because again I keep saying that this seemed more like "child's play".
