Cencoroll Connect · review
Cencoroll Connect is a one-hour film that expands on Cencoroll's part one story, with part two being two-thirds of this film. It offers a great continuation of the first OVA/Movie. The movie spares no time introducing new characters and Cencos? Cencorolls? Octo monsters. Yeah. Its fluid animation and nonchalant almost deadpan characters are its strongest points, with Cenco being the most exemptional aspect of the series. Like, what is a Cenco? Why are they so oddly adorable? Like a bulldog, or Gudetama-ish type of kaiju (almost). Its appeal, at least for me, is mainly how the OVAs vibe like Sonny Boy. If you've seen theshow.

I've had this screaming thought in my mind that Cencoroll existed so that Sonny Boy could pop off, and now Cencoroll is back with a part 2, and soon to be part 3 this year (hoping). That really says something about experimental anime mediums where the characters are pretty chill. But, I don't know what. I just think it's cool.
