Hidive kept crashing so I couldn't watch more Helck. Instead I finally finished Kaina of the Great Snow Sea. I was really impressed with it early on. It had a weird world that was buried under snow, there was a kind of canopy in the atmosphere held up by impossibly tall trees. The setting was neat. I loved the feel of the early episodes when Kaina, from the canopy, met someone from the surface and they set off on an adventure. Once the main conflict got going, though, the quality of the show really suffered. The pacing was slow and a lot of important things went unexplored, which made it difficult to care about anything. Even aspects of the story that I would usually love just kind of came and went without me feeling much. The last episode also had one of the most infuriatingly idiotic moments I've ever seen in fiction, ugh. And then, to top it all off, it ended on a cliffhanger without resolving anything. There's going to be a sequel movie to wrap everything up, but Crunchyroll doesn't usually get movies so this might be it... and I'm surprised at how little I care whether I see the movie or not. I'm not even curious to see the how the story ends. This whole anime was just really disappointing.

The CGI animation looked really good, though! It had that going for it at least.
