Movie Reviews of Tokyo Revelation
Movie Review: potential unfulfilled
Summary: 2 Stars
I wanted so much to really like Tokyo Revelation. I liked the characters, the concept, the art style, the overall look. (Although I can understand some people not liking any of those) But it failed. It falls on it's face. Cerberus, the 3 headed dog of the underworld, lacks 2 of his heads... points like that grate on the nerves. The story is underdeveloped, the main characters have some development, but never seem to get anywhere because the story isn't fleshed out enough to give them room.The dialogue needs a lot of work and research.
It should have been done more slowly, and done as a longer series. Double the length or perhaps more. More fight scenes with all the otherworldly demons introduced. More conflict and confrontation between the human characters. More development on the identities of characters and their relationships. More internal conflict for the characters who have to accept changes in themselves and those around them.
It's not the worst anime I've seen, but it left me feeling like I'd been cheated out of something worthwhile.
