just watched the first ep of to be hero x new blorbo is going THRU it
Let’s talk about this for a moment. This formation is devious and I feel bad for the monsters. Keep in mind, Jean got her vision after handling an invasion. Just thought that should be said.
The monsters coming in from the side entrance have to get past Eula, and if they manage to do that they run into Lisa “The Purple Witch” Minci and her wolf god trained student. IF those creatures survive they have two choices:
They run towards the world’s strongest maid that’s trying to make a name for herself, or towards who I’m assuming is Sucrose; who is right next to the alchemy table to make whatever she has to.
The monsters coming in from the bridge are facing the man who can throw a phoenix and his brother with the perfect move to not only protect his brother, but make him stronger. All of that while two archer can snipe from both sides of the wall, but call out incoming enemies.
A hillichurl that survives then faces two more arches that are positioned where they work daily. One is a small feline huntsman around balconies while the other is a pro adventurer that can fly or send out her familiar to cover her blind spots.
Now let’s say various types of churls break that line of defense. I would not be shocked if the two question marks together end up being the traveler if Klee. You know she’s not sitting this out but needs a guardian. If it isn’t us then maybe Dhalia. Then there’s the lone question mark. I am so confident it’s Bennett. Just him, the monster, and the bad luck they have to deal with. Nobody else around to get hurt and he’s no pushover.
Now the lucky monsters that made it through all that defense are getting funneled up towards the god on his religious sniper’s nest who’s probably been firing assist shots to every group in front of him. The closer they get, the more likely to escape his eyesight and run towards Jean “Overachiever” Gunnhilder and Mona “i foretold your arrival” Megistus running devious defense with healing!
THEN the final obstacle is the woman of the church that makes it her job to go out every night and kill said monsters while the hydro deaconess is keeping that cryo assassin healthy along with any other knight.
Varka didn’t bat an eye taking half the troops on an expedition because invading Mondstadt with citizens like them around is an awful idea. Noelle is chilling by herself and it makes sense! She’s not the one who needs help!
Yeah I feel that a bit, definitely fast, no doubt about it. But it's just barely not jumping off into the deep end of crazy pacing though imo. I do hope the current pacing is just due to needing to establish some stuff before we get to the real meat of the story.
Also the chaotic pace of it all and it being confusing is probably how Lin feels about everything too. So maybe they're intentionally going for that rather than them wanting to rush to other stuff.
to be hero x has stunning animation, captivating sound design, interesting characters, and fantastic fight choreography, but i feel the pacing is so fast that it can be a bit chaotic
it's hard not to get emotional whiplash at times. better pacing would really allow the emotional highs and lows of tbhx to hit with the intensity these moments deserve. i wish the writers would allow moments to breathe more or perhaps work on writing scene transitions with a bit more flow.
im definitely planning on investing my time into this show and im going to continue watching, but the pacing issues are sometimes hard to ignore. Part of me thinks these two episodes have been so quick just because the writers really want to speed to telling a later part of the story sooner. if so, i look forward to seeing the potential of this show's writing once it gets it's footing then.
for everyone who follows me, take this as a threat, I will no longer hesitate.
You guys do know you're supposed to reblog things, right
watching non-french players try to pronounce neuvillette is hilarious because 1. it's usually awful (and endearing), and 2. french people have no idea how to pronounce it either.
I’m watching Splash (1984) which is a romcom about a guy who falls in love with a mermaid, and when she chooses a human name she chooses Madison and guy says “that’s not a real name, but alright” which seems to imply that Madison was not a name until at least the 80’s and all girls named Madison are actually named after the mermaid. thought you should know
