Review of Bungo Stray Dogs: Dead Apple
As a huge fan of Bungo Stray Dogs I had both high expectations and nervousness about this film-- my main concern was that it wasn't going to be as good as the show. I was wrong-- I really enjoyed this film and thought it was very fun! Although I did have some issues with pacing and scenes ending suddenly, I still really enjoyed it! The characters were brilliant as always although I wish we could see more of the other characters. The music and animation was dope and the story was enjoyable, although I can see why some fans were upset over this film and that'sone of the reasons why I was cautious (because I saw people saying that it wasn't good)-- but even so, I think a lot of fans (like myself) enjoyed it!
My main issue was the pacing- the film's pacing was too quick and they didn't leave a whole lot of time to explain much which left me and other viewers confused. I believe this film would've been better as a full season or even half a season so they could take time to really polish it and make it more clear.
So if you're a fan of BSD, give this film a go, it didn't disappoint me and I hope it doesn't disappoint you!
