Emergence

Editor at Fextralife. I look for the substantial in gaming and I try to connect video games to the emotions and stories they elicit. I love all things culture and history and have an odd fondness for the planet Jupiter. I think my dogs are pretty awesome too.

I’d say make it a bit shorter than a typical review. You’re really just evaluating story and setting, visual and audio. Narrative gist is good, but I would avoid any heavy spoilers such as plot twists or reveals.

Sure. How condensed do you want it? Also, gist of the narrative or a few spoilers?

would you want to write a condensed review of it?

I watched the first three episodes last night and will likely finish up season 1 (since it’s only one more episode) tonight.

Overall it’s pretty good, with a definite lean toward the adult market. Trying not to have spoilers, but it suffers from trying to condense the story into 4 episodes (a primary character has a pretty absurdly fast change of heart for instance) and they made the mistake of having the antagonist be a little too easy to sympathize with.

Oh, it’s Netflix? Drat, that’s unfortunate. There are only so many streaming services I’m willing to subscribe to at once.

Damn, Netflix is getting their own anime now?
