Normal people talking about Ex-Arm: It's trash Mother's Basement: "This isn't any old trash, it's rarified, finely-aged garbage of *exquisitely* greasy texture"
My partner and I watched the redo healer anime with no idea what it was about aside from revenge. They wondered what the uncensored version was all about and we watched the first episode. We quickly learned this was a hentai. And we formed the strongest bond you can have with a person. A trauma bond.
The funny thing is that the story of redo is pretty good, but they forced sex scenes upon you every 5-10 mins which was a turn off. . . We got it after the first 3 episodes, you didn't need to keep going with it you can just imply it at that point and continue the story.
@@Delimon007 the premisse is pretty good, but even without the freaking r*pe stuff, the story in general would still be quite bad, in my humble opinion, of course.
@@Delimon007 Cool you disregard all opinions that differ from your own based solely on the fact that they differ from your own and instead of simply stating your disagreement you come up with bullshit sarcastic answers to substitute any actual substantive argument. Anything else?
At a distance It looks like stale bread left on the counter for several weeks, and yet I’m strangely enticed to try a bite. I haven’t seen a single episode yet but each time I see it my curiosity meter rises.
Same, I keep thinking of low effort ways to min/max the lp system. You could probably farm tons by just being a disgusting neet for a month then spending them on op skills.
@@Gizmomaster If think like you can survive through the excessive clichès and like ungodly amounts of tits on your screen. Then The Hidden Dungeon is the show for you
Absurdly horny: the nuclear wasteland left post-supercritical levels of horniness Hornily absurd: the boner that tried to be creative, but ended up breaking itself
This is not Funny. Its no joke how Prejudices against Anime-Fans are kinda getting true, because general Quality is breaking through the g-damn floor. I cant imagine something more sad than this new acceptance of low quality or even outright trashy quality. Dont be sad anime-dweebs; and i dont mean that for the Meme. I mean it. The Anime Community walks into the wrong direction; hope you notice.
EX-ARM is what would happen if somebody turned "i learnt 3D animation to make this 1 video" into a whole series and didn't treat it as a joke also, Slevin Channel, you okay sweetie?
Geoff, this is not hot garbage, it has become so hot and fuming that all possible evaluators of its heat have burned to death and now can only feel the cold touch of the grim reaper wearing a Keyaru mask.
I'm convinced that Redo the Healer is a Comedy Anime. K, here's the scenario: You are a princess/ mage/ hero and someone you need in their party refuses to use their healing power because it gives the PTSD. Do you: A) Develop a positive personal relationship with the healer, turning into the rock he can lean on and trust (Nice romantic subplot, could sell some figurines) B) Order a False Flag assault against his home village and blame it on the BBEG in hopes that his need for revenge outweighs his mental trauma (Could set up for a nice plot twist mid series. Good Drama.) C) Leave him behind. Dead weight is worse that no weight (Not the most interesting, the most logical.) Correct, the Answer was "D) Break his mind with Drugs and ...gratiuitous amounts of sexual abuse... for some reason." You know, like a normal hooman being.
Yes because someone who's either high or in crippling withdrawal is exactly the kind of person you want to reattach your arm in battle. Not to mention someone hates you past the point of wanting you dead.
JJ 04 Keyaru’s basic healing doesn’t require skill, he was perfectly capable of healing while cripplingly addicted and high. He was also so incredibly addicted and broken that he couldn’t feel hate, he only wanted his drug. There’s a lot wrong about Redo of a Healer but in the context of the world, having him as the healer of the group and drugging him isn’t as stupid as it would be otherwise.
@@Bogglemanify Yeah, when I first saw Geoff’s video on Handshakers I knew it had to be from the same studio. Gotta be honest, was never crazy about the rainbow filter they used, and Handshakers uses a lot of 3D that K just didn’t and as much as I don’t like what they’re going for, yeah, I can’t help but applaud at their attempt. A lot of people would’ve given up. Also, it has been a while but in any case, they never used that crazy amount of 3D in K though I’ll admit I skipped season 2 entirely and don’t know how it looked except for some awfully funny fanservice shots.
@@Bogglemanify ikr. K project looks so great but after season 1 and 2 gohands changed their art style and the faces look weird... Like puppets. I think they are also making a remake of tokyo babylon...
Canipa Effect did a Studio Spotlight video on Ex-Arm, and honestly speaking, *_everyone_* on the production team are skilled in their respective fields. The only problem is that *_none_* of them were working at their specialties, and were way out of their depth when working on Ex-Arm. It’s actually pretty tragic. :(
@@UGNAvalon I've watched a few of his videos recently (haven't gotten to the Ex-Arm one just yet), and I'm not surprised that he focused on that aspect. But yeah, that does turn the comedic suckiness tragic.
The guy deciding about the cupcake made me interested. That was so stupid that it got me interested..."You killed my girlfriend father!! I'm so pissed I'm taking a cupcake!!! Or maybe not because it'll go straight to my hips!!!
@@BooleanDev Nah there's definitely better, like Urasekai Picnic if you don't want to count all the really good sequels like Log Horizon and Hataraku Saibou
I feel bad for the creator of the manga behind EX. The art looks decent but it’s named has been dragged through the mud because of its adaptation. Berserk was already a well-known manga and had a watchable adaptation before the CG series butchered it.
I have to question just how good it could have been to start with, however. I mean, it's certainly possible that the director is just SO BAD that they forgot to put any of the actual plot in the story, so the manga versions of the terrorists actually DID have a motivation but nobody told the anime guys, for a start, but even at best, I have to look at the decision to make Akira getting authorization to hack things (something he could do in the first episode WITHOUT needing to do this) require the lesbot and girl cop kiss is so LUDICROUSLY contrived that it couldn't have come from anything but the manga to start with and that just puts us in Pandora in the Crimson Shell territory. And Pandora in the Crimson Shell did the whole "brain in a armored box that hacks stuff while also hanging our core concept on robotgirl kisses" thing WAAAAY better than Ex-Arm ever even hopes to, and it was a DELIBERATELY goofball story. Basically, I can only presume it was trying to DECLARE WAR ON Ghost in the Shell, and wound up being Pandora in the Crimson Shell: the shit version even in the manga version BEFORE the supposed "anime guys" burned every last scrap of potential straight through the ground.
I read Ex it wasn't a story for me but it was pretty good and then I watched a video showing a quote from the studio that was making it saying they don't believe in storyboards and I felt so sorry for the people who are looking forward to it
@@lostnemesis Saying they don't believe in storyboards kind of makes sense, considering as this show has just jaw-dropping holes in continuity. From something like a shot where they zoom the camera around a robot to show that it's surrounded by dog robots that are all teleported away, then Kondo and Other Guy are firing rifles vaguely somewhere off-camera for some reason while standing in front of a wall. Then there's a shaky cam and a motion lines filter put on the screen while it zooms in on the immobile arm of the robot. Then it cuts to Alma teleporting in front of the robot where she wasn't there before and there should be parts from those dog robots instead, but she gets nudged by what little they can animate of the robot moving its arm, so Alma goes flying like she's a helium balloon. Then, it cuts to Kondo and Other Guy looking up as Alma veeery slooowly floats over them as they are now hiding behind an overturned car in the middle of the street for some reason. Then they have a scene where Akira sends more dog robots after the big robot even though he doesn't hack those dog robots until later in the episode where that exact same scene gets reused frame-for-frame IN THE SAME EPISODE. I mean, I'm not saying the manga was this awful, just that it was a normal kind of generic sci-fi stuff that probably didn't think its concepts through nearly enough and covered it up with cheesecake to keep the kids who hadn't read Ghost in the Shell or Pandora in the Crimson shell before to know where it's ripping off all its material. It's only absolutely everything about the anime being awful that manages to make it go from mere trash to such an absolute flaming everything wreck that it somehow transforms into a Dadaist piece of anti-art art. It's also, hilariously, given top billing on Crunchyroll as a "Crunchyroll Exclusive". You know, like they paid EXTRA to get this just on Crunchyroll, thinking it would be a blockbuster. It was even put in the carousel of shows on the front page of Crunchyroll where it featured alongside them bragging that they've got the entire original run of Gundam up on Crunchyroll now or new seasons of big-name anime. They thought this was going to be a hit. It wasn't even just for the first week, this was week 4, after the 1.4 stars average reviews had been coming in for weeks, it was still up on the front page being advertised as "ONLY ON CRUNCHROLL"!
@@lostnemesis Here's a thing I remembered that is a good reason I didn't hold out much hope the manga was better: You know that really famous part of The Matrix, where Neo needs to learn Kung-fu, so they download Kung-fu into his brain, and he goes "Whoa!... I know Kung-fu!" and starts fighting? The Ex-Arm version of that is that after getting control of Alma for the first time and being really uncoordinated controlling a killbot, Alma gets him to have instant mastery of controlling a combat robot's body and using kung fu moves he doesn't know simply by telling him "Have you ever watched Kung fu movies? Just be like that." BAM, suddenly he knows both how to control a kill-droid AND Kung-fu just because he watched a kung-fu movie once. Yes, they give THAT little of a shit about making the plot make sense! This wasn't a joke or anything, this is something they're expecting you to take seriously as a power that the protagonist has!
The problem with writing the revenge-rape fantasy anime off as "this is actually hentai and there's worse in hentai" is that it's hanging out on the sofa in mainstream anime's house. If nothing is done to chase it out of the house, it's going to start inviting its friends over (normalizing its contents). Eventually, we're going to be left wondering why the house is now full of hentai or pseudo-hentai focused on vile or degrading premises. This kind of stuff doesn't deserve to have potential viewers routed to it, even ironic viewers.
Agreed, it reminds me of when Jump Force got nominated for fighting game of the year when the competition was giants like Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, etc. The situation you described is way worse of course
And anyone who says the assault stuff is fine and that its deserved Well... I think most of us dont want those kinds of people in the house. I as a survivor certainly dont.
I actually was interested in redo at the start, i was expecting the story to be about a long journey where the hero gets more and more psychotic until he forgets his revenge and just starts killing everybody, and then i snaped back to reality and remembered what kinda anime i was whatching
Also another idea i had for the story was that the main character would have to learn the meaning of being a hero and come to terms with his power, something like "a hero helps everyone around him, no matter how much it hurts"
@@alejandromercene9702 I mean, Wonder Egg was butchered towards its ending and Horimiya turned out to be a rushed mess. Don't think the community thinks of them as instant classics.
I gotta admit I lost it at the mental image of a harem protag solemnly editing his "fanservice scene" skill so it doesn't interrupt any important moments. The sacrifices that have to be made...
@@V2ULTRAKill Quite the opposite, harem anime rarely good, and only if it is very good. The harem genre is pretty horrible in itself and only appeals to a fcked up audience. That doesn't mean slight harem elements cannot be included in a good show (like Stein's gate, or Bunny girl senpai), but the genre in itself is bad, and almost make it impossible to create a good and meaningful story.
@@fenrirr22 i don't think you get the joke Theres a reason harem comedy is also the number one guilty pleasure genre. They are good no matter how bad they are Because they can be complete dogshit and people will still love them Take me and my relationship with Girls Bravo, a dumpster fire to rival hand shakers But i love it
Which is damn sad. This is not Funny. Its no joke how Prejudices against Anime-Fans are kinda getting true, because general Quality is breaking through the g-damn floor. I cant imagine something more sad than this new acceptance of low quality or even outright trashy quality. Stuff like Redo of Healer and Dungeon only i can enter have the declared Target-Group of Simpletons or even worse. Arguably worse. Dont be sad anime-dweebs; and i dont mean that for the Meme. I mean it. The Anime Community walks into the wrong direction; hope you notice.
@@slevinchannel7589 i have more the feeling anime walks in all directions and is even with its worser stuff still above the mediumstyle western comicindustry. about the redo of healer thing i must say i dont care as long as i finally get a good berserk adaptation, that i will never get
Imagine Rise of the Shield Hero is a Tarentino movie. Some moral gray zones but hero is a great guy who respects everyone and fights for the little guys. Redo of Healer is like a Rob Zombie movie where everyone is an evil carney, the story isn't interesting and they wrote the thing on the same day, after using a trash can full of coke.
He buys a young girl who had been enslaved because he can't attack and needs someone to finish off monsters. He treats her well and takes on a caregiver role and eventually frees her. Honestly this is the 1 questionable thing that he does and its akin to free blacks buying their loved ones out of slavery and thus officially becoming their owners.
@@dminard1 I heard that he did it so that every time he saw her in pain he could imagine that it was one bitch who (falsley, he wasn't a piece of shit before that whole debacle) accused him of rape. I am probably wrong, but I remember hearing the anime is much lighter then the LN(I dont keep up on anime terms, I just enjoy any well made show, so I probably called it the wrong thing.) And didn't he have people who wanted to join his party take his slave brand, which gives them horrible pain if they disobey him? I mean, I did also hear he got a hell of a lot better, but that stills kinda fucked up.
@@accountname9506 none of that happened in this show. You should watch it before hating on it because it's one of the top 5 isakai (people in a game world shows).
I just noticed that The Hidden Dungeon sometimes looks like it was animated by the My Sister My Writer studio if they were given a budget and a will to live. It's not in every frame, but there's something in the faces from time to time that makes me wonder.
21:11: You know, an anime about a guy in that sort of prime Machiavellian-schemer position who is just so _incompetent_ that his schemes fall apart immediately could be a pretty good premise for a comedy anime. Like a reverse One Punch Man.
Redo of Healer sounds like it could have been really good, the story's premise is intriguing and it could have gone into abuse and traumatic experiences and shown how it fucks a person up mentally. Such a shame.
Specifically, it looks like the one infamously badly animated scene from Volume 2. The Cinder Roof Run scene. The scene so bad that even in the machinima-tier animation of early RWBY, it STILL went memetic. Ex-Arm looks like that level of quality happened to an entire show.
Hidden dungeon is my favorite trash fire this season! As a general rule, I'm not the sort of person who enjoys fanservice at all and I usually would never bother watching a show like this, but my weed addled mind took me on a journey one night and I have sincerely not been able to go back. It is the epitome of 'so bad it's good' and I am living for it. Great vid as always!
I read the light novels. When I found out it was getting an anime, I was excited, because... Yeah, Hidden Dungeon is trash, but it's FUN trash. It's GOOD trash. It knows it's ridiculous and it just accepts it rather than trying to pretend it's "deep" or whatever - it's just a fun time with a cast of goofy dumbasses. It's not the greatest anime that's ever been but god damn if you can't sit down with a bowl of popcorn and enjoy a few episodes.
I can see why it got a dub. It looks like a show to watch if you in the right mood for it and with some freinds Watching bad movies and anime was a pastime with a freind of mine
I tried to look up Redo of a Healer on animelab just to see if its on there and the app bugged out and took the search bar away from me. Youd have to be a VERY fucked up anime to have an app take the search bar away from people for looking you up LMAOOO
seems you just encountered a bug on a poorly coded website. Unsure how you'd think redo and the website bug are related, but it's not even a good or funny joke? was that the best you could come up with?
I wonder how the voice actors reacts to voicing characters in ex-arms which seems like a waste of time but at the same time you have to appreciate how bad it is 😂😂
Redo of Healer is the perfect example of someone's first edgelord overpowered D&D character, and as a DM it makes me laugh and cringe at the memories of my campaigns from 10 + years back
Here's my top trash from Winter 2021: 1. Ex-ARM: take a studio with no anime experience, a director with no anime experience, and Crunchyroll's corporate credit card... 2. High Rise Invasion : For that sweet, sweet early 00s edgelord feeling 3. Gekidol : I don't think this show knew what it wanted to be 4. Vlad Love : This had some comedy gold moments, but it didn't always hit the mark in its execution, and quickly ran out of ways to tell the same 4 jokes. 5. Hidden Dungeon Only I Can Enter : For yeah, formulaic ecchi that never really goes full High School DxD or even Demon King Daimao.
Redo of healer made me think of infamous psychological experiments like the Milgrom test (will you apply electrical shocks to someone, potentially killing them, so long as someone in authority tells you to do so). The main character does terrible, evil, disgusting things (want to see what grooming a child looks like) and yet by placing him as the main character fighting completely evil villains we're supposed to identify with and cheer for the terrible things he does. Makes for a f---ed up watching experience.
The manga has a 6.75 score on MAL, with that score it is among the worst of mangas, so it doesn't achieve such "greatness" as the anime, but it is still a horrible manga based on the readers
Re-do of healer is a god awful show with a horrible degenerate protagonist and every other character is evil trash in some way too and we are all worse off knowing it exists. And I can’t wait for the next episode!!!
Somehow, it looks WORSE than the early RWBY volumes; I’d probably chalk that up to Ex-Arm’s complete lack of *any* character facial expressions, which at least RWBY volume 1 spent effort on. It just makes Ex-Arm’s characters look like dolls or animatronics at a theme park.
In summary Ex-Arm: PS2 graphics and how hard could this be? Redo of a Healer: Anime and Schmentai both don't want to be associated with it Wicross: Absurdly h0rny to h0rnily absurd The Only Dungeon I Can Enter: THE H0RNY IS MY SUSTENANCE
@@cokebear1337 when you compare it to normal anime it's cheaper and also since they apparently didn't do any storyboarding they were really trying to save all the money weren't they
I think my favorite trash of the season is a redo of healer. The level of cartoonish evil involved is just astonishing, there is no point in condoning or rejecting the actions of the MC. I merely watch on and say "THEY LIVE IN A SOCIETY"
I like how whenever an anime with any meaningful cultural impact comes out a hentai version immediately follows. Theres just something mesmerizing about it.
A weak protagonist gets powers from a very powerful entity that’s sealed away. In turn, the protagonist can not only use said powers, making them op, but they can also give said powers to others. Virgin Hidden Dungeon or Chad Slime Isekai?
I was looking forward to High Rise invasion because I've read some of the manga and liked it, but it seemed to take all the good parts and leave them in the basement (and not your mother's) when they should be somewhere you can actually see them.
Hidden dungeon is one of the hardest to put down series in a while and I have no idea why. I think it's because it knows EXACTLY what it is and just rolls with it

@@slevinchannel7589 lol the concept of "so bad it's fun" is not new and is also perfectly valid. Not everything is going to be an exciting masterpiece and not everything needs to be. A series or film or whatever that is an easy "ight" time will always be handy for when you just want to switch off for a while
@@slevinchannel7589 I mean if you took 2 seconds to actually read, I never said it was "good quality" lol but it's also not offensively bad. It's so by the numbers generic that it managed to to have a weird sort of charm and hang around as a way to kill 25 minutes every week
