Scissor Seven Season 1 & 2 Review

Image
Scissor Seven is a Chinese animated action-comedy that has a very art style that really sets it apart from other animated shows on Netflix. The show starts off as a very episodic show that sprinkles in lore and world-building episode by episode. The show follows Seven who is a person with amnesia is unable to remember his past. He is taken in by a blue chicken named Dai Bo who forces him to work as a wannabee assassin and barber doing odd jobs around Chicken Island. The majority of the first season is used to introduce the inhabitants of Chicken Island and very contained episodes that sees Seven attempt to assassinate them but ultimately failing every time. The show gets more serious as more of Seven's past is revealed and more threats Chicken Island are introduced. The show is very over the top in its comedy and action in terms of the visuals. The show is never trying to be realistic and it is very much the shows strength because of this the animators are rea

Clone Wars Season 7 Ep 12 "Victory and Death" Series Finale Review

I have no words to describe how amazing the final episode of Clone Wars was because none of that  would do the episode justice. The music and sound for this final episode was above and beyond  anything I have ever heard from any show let alone animated shows. From the opening score in the  beginning to the sound of the ship crumbling throughout the episode to the final score, in the end, it  really was a whole another level that equals or even surpasses that of the saga films. The sequence of  Maul going full Star Killer with his force abilities destroying the hyperdrive was so fucking insane  to see, I honestly question why he needed to ever to wield a lightsaber based on the force abilities he  demonstrated but it was an amazing treat. He also showed up Darth Vader by force choking two  people at the same time. Rex and Ahsoka had one of the best moment in the series when all the  remaining 501st had them surrounded in the docking bay where before

"All my Gawd!!" (Joseph Joestar), that was my reaction the whole time watching this episode. The atmosphere amplified by the music coupled with the knowledge that order 66 was about to happen gave me goosebumps and a great amount of anxiety that rivals that of a great thriller movie. This episode starts off with Ahsoka saying her farewells with Bo Katan and walking into a holo meeting with Windu, Yoda, Ki Ai Mundi, and Aayla Secura discussing the detainment of the Chancellor. Everyone who has watched Revenge of the Sith should know at that moment that order 66 was very close to happening. Seeing Ahsoka walking through lines of clone troopers while escorting Maul on to a Republic ship was honestly making my heart go 200 beats a second despite me already knowing that Ahsoka survives order 66. That is a testament to how good this episode was, despite already knowing Ahsoka is in no danger of dying I was still very worried for her due to how tense and bleak th
