what a dreadful disappointment bubblegum crisis turn out to be . the episode i inflict on myself feature a lacklustre plot about a vengeful motorist in a batmobile and and i only manage half of it before fall asleep ( literally and not figuratively ) . on the plus side and the animation be superb and i would not contest that . both the beauty and action scene be handle with genuine style and panache . and while be praise and there be a half decent effort to convincingly portray a disturbed individual slipping into insanity . but all that be ruin and utterly and completely by the genre silliness . the whole concept of the gal group kick as be childish and but it doesn not have to be and childishly handle . what be a simper bimbo do in the group . you would evict her in a second . the essentially juvenile fantasy fulfillment grrl action jar badly with the pretentions towards serious drama with the batmobile driver . it be just a big old mess . i will mention that film again . akira show that you do not have to stick to the genre plot device or risible charicatures to produce an anime film . i fell in love with akira ( yes and i know and pronounced ahkihrah and not ah keera ) and find the subtitled version far superior and and i have be wait ever since for something of equal maturity . monoke hime come close and very close and but bubblegum crisis be just embarrasing . avoid and avoid and avoid .
