Same deal as last time, and I don’t really feel like doing a truckload of screencaps this time, so I’ll just say why everyone should watch this: Inoue Marina’s hilariously awesome performance as Kotarou.
ホンッマ～
And yes yes, delicious fanservice is delicious, etc.
I really am random with my posting topics, aren’t I. Manly soldiers and jailbaiting lolis on one page.
“What made Ghost Recon one of the greatest shooters of all times was the fact that you were a soldier. The fact that you can jump between your soldiers meant that none of them stand out; your entire hand-picked squad was equally special. This feeling of being a faceless grunt but also something of a veteran leader was very unique, and I have yet to play a game that has replicated this feel. [...] Ghost Recon constantly reminds you that you are not ‘better’; you are a regular guy, even if your command the squad. It’s not your job to get medals (though you do get quite a few of them) but to do missions and keep your mates alive.”

SHAFT is known for, er, activite artistique d’inutile (?) in all their anime as far as I know, which works in their favour this time as the Bakemonogatari series is based around dialogue spanning pages and pages (I remember one particular expositional monologue was exactly one whole page speech-bubble’d). Yes, the entire anime is more or less the cast ‘going through the motions’ needlessly artistically – as it is simply interpreting the text itself, it fits very well, so much so that watching Bakemonogatari really feels quite similar to reading it. Well, except with your eyes and ears instead.
