review starlight: wow, this show was way better than I was expecting. Wasn't super hyped about first few episodes but things just always get more and more interesting and I think a lot of the characters have reasonable yet unique character flaws that get tied extremely well into the story. there's only really one or two choices for "best" girl but I'd have a hard time picking a worst since none of them are really bad or boring which is something I haven't seen in a long time.

Mostly though I'm impressed by the planning and framing of scenes. Like, the angles, the cuts, what they show, what they don't, the constant nods and callbacks to previous scenes not in a explicitly mentioned way but just in how the shot itself is laid out. I don't think I've ever watched anything that does that this well and it just really makes me feel the amount of care and effort put into the visuals even though there are cases that look "bad" from a technical animation standpoint.

I'm a little cheesed by the subs I had not translating a lot of the songs, since they're fairly relevant and it's a dumb thing to miss. Also sometimes the ED was subbed and sometimes it wasn't even when it was the same song |:. My number one TL bother was that I think something was really lost in TL when , a recurring line, became "Let us compete in song and dance". Sure, can mean that sort of competing like that, but then you lose what I think they were really going for (especially as the story progresses and the giraffe emphasizes this word more and more) is that can mean to steal/take something from someone and thus has more of a "stealing from each other" meaning in this case.

also gets bonus points for one of the more unique transformation(?) sequences I've seen lol
