First Episode(s) Review for: Hamtora
Summary:
A group of down on their luck (cash poor) super powered bounty hunters go about their daily business…..well that’s it really…problems with money, comedy shouting, revealing of super powers…
Animation:
Normal Anime Quality, but they have pushed up the brightness on the primary colours a lot to give it some ‘pop’ makes it look a bit like an American 80’s comic book.
Plot Potential:
At first sight there is nothing new here not even the super powers (though I was surprised to find sound as the primary characters super power as that is normally a bad guy type of power), I suspect we will have to wait a few episodes to see if it improves.
Music:
Nothing leaps out, its suitable for content but that’s it
Reminds me of:
This is totally a Get Backers knock off
Overall:
Its fun, and a pleasant background, but it fells like it is not the work of one persons vision, which I always feel is what sets out the great Anime/Manga, a brief net search revels it to be a constructed anime or “mixed-media project” well lets give it a few episodes.
