I'll set the stage: - a valiant effort to tackle social issues few other anime acknowledge exist - really fucking cute girls - a production company which, like my life, has all but come off the rails - it's all riding on this. one. episode!!!Permalink On twitter.com
-
I'm... being dramatic just let me have fun pleasePermalink On twitter.com
-
they're like not okay but thanksPermalink On twitter.com
-
the animation is... pretty rushedPermalink On twitter.com
-
So I think around 1st and 2nd egg I tweeted about how Wonder Egg Priority pays special detail to little animated movements and such but this scene is just zooming into the characters as it gets more pixelated on a backdrop that's probably just a photo w/ filtersPermalink On twitter.com
-
why is it zooming in so close I mean I KNOW why it's because actually animating a conversation would've taken time, money, and physical energy that the staff did not have okay I'm watchin I'm watchin I'm off the zoomPermalink On twitter.com
-
can these two date at least I mean come ONPermalink On twitter.com

Wonder Egg Priority spoilers hopefully by tagging these more explicit screencaps I don't accidently show up on someone's TL who's been waiting for itPermalink On twitter.com
-
anyway - okay Egg if you say so I'm along for the ridePermalink On twitter.com
-
Wonder Egg Priority spoilers so my basic writer's intuition here says Ai's boss is gonna be Sawaki-sensei, right? Which would most readily tie up the thing with Frill and Sawaki if done well that's the quick and dirty "we ran out of time" answer anywayPermalink On twitter.com
-
skipping the OP because it no longer looks as good as the show itself and that just makes me depressedPermalink On twitter.com
-
Wonder Egg Priority spoilers So Ai was the 12th egg, huh? how does that even make sense don't you have to commit suicide to become an egg? ... y'know typing this sentence out I realize why I keep losing followersPermalink On twitter.com

I'm quickly beginning to piece together what this episode is going to doPermalink On twitter.com
-
ain't that a moodPermalink On twitter.com
-
wait this isn't a mood I'm not happy at allPermalink On twitter.com
-
Wonder Egg Priority spoilers oh okay so other Ai just has the eye on a different side of her face? or am I being a derp and forgetting how direction worksPermalink On twitter.com
-
no it's just wrong they forgot what side her eye is on and now I'm confused because they drew attention to itPermalink On twitter.com
-
let me check my fanart because my fanart is on model and APPARENTLY this show isn'tPermalink On twitter.com
-
oh there's a mirrorPermalink On twitter.com
-
sorry everyone it's a mirror but... why is there a mirror in the middle of a hallPermalink On twitter.com
-
dropping the eye thing. moving onPermalink On twitter.com
-
yeah okay okay that's embarrassing I'm embarrassed I got my ass handed to me by a mirror but in my defense but this shot FIRST because it's the only shot where it's clear that this is a mirror and not a framePermalink On twitter.com
-
man I spent so long on that mirror thingPermalink On twitter.com
-

-
I mean I did guess this I was rightPermalink On twitter.com
-
Wonder Egg Priority spoilers wait I need good boss music how about some Homestuck: youtu.be/bjAK8D5ytiUPermalink On twitter.com
-
so I'm disappointed at the basic writing but I'm relieved that this wasn't worse which would be NOT making Sawaki-sensei a villain which y'know can't believe that was a possibility for this long that's irresponsiblePermalink On twitter.com
-
it's not TERRIBLE it just looks like something I would draw okay I guess that means by proxy it's terribleOn twitter.com

So y'all want some egg thoughts? Y'all want some raw, uncooked, uncracked, unfiltered, fresh-out-the-chicken-butt egg thoughts? Here are the egg thoughtsPermalink On twitter.com
-
I want to make two things clear. First the fabled production issues this show has run into are super obvious. I thought they were mostly holding it together on the visual end but this episode wow I'm afraid to even go back and compare to what I saw in episodes 1-4Permalink On twitter.com
-
But the second thing is that I don't want to blame all of the show's failures on production issues. There were writing problems that basically always existed from the first episode. The writing is much better at raising questions than finding solutions.Permalink On twitter.com
-
But my annoyance is that... Wonder Egg Priority is not the only anime that this has happened to. People tried to argue with me that Darling in the Franxx was a good anime if you ignore episodes 16 to 24. That's almost half the showPermalink On twitter.com
-
I guess how I feel right now is that Egg is being held to a standard we wouldn't hold other anime. Especially, say, shounen animePermalink On twitter.com
-
It seems weird to me that things like One Piece and My Hero Academia can have entire arcs where the writing just... doesn't work and still be held up as really good. But Wonder Egg Priority needs each and every episode to be perfect or the whole thing's ruinedPermalink On twitter.com
-
And the thing that makes it worse is that we rarely get media that are this trans affirming and this feminist from anime.Permalink On twitter.com
-
No I'm not saying everyone who doesn't like Egg is sexist or transphobic. I'm saying a lot of people maybe didn't like the fact that a show like Egg was being held up as an instant classic and were waiting for an excuse to shit on it. And episodes 9-12 are that excuse nowPermalink On twitter.com
-
So yeah, I really like Wonder Egg Priority. Is it perfect? No. Did the finale make sense? They literally ran out of time to do a proper finale so no. But is it still overall a really powerful and beautiful piece of work? Yes, yes it is. I'd recommend it to peoplePermalink On twitter.com
