I love Brigadoon. Just finished it and there is nothing else out there like it. It has elements of everything I like about anime but it's hard to pin down to one genre. It's not just the cool robot fights and near-constant loli fanservice, it's a beautiful story with a lovely close-knit cast and incredible sound/art direction. I'll be thinking about this story and its characters for a long time to come.
>>282388702The ending kind of killed the show for me. It really didn't make any sense.
>>282388743I read it as tongue-in-cheak and not what actually happens >Well my work is done I have to return to my planet >What?! That's fucking stupid stay here with me >Well....Is how I read it.
>>282388743Do you mean the ritual they did or where Marin and Melan ended up? The ritual was just sci-fi magic that doesn't need a technical explanation which was about what I expected. I think Melan's decision to leave, stay, or take Marin with him at the end was supposed to be vague. If you're talking about the villain he's explained well enough though they definitely crammed his and every other explanations for the series into the last episode. It's one of THOSE anime but I didn't mind it.
I just remembered this exists, and also that I watched it yet I can't remember anythingExcept that I wish I had my own marin of course
>>282388851>>282388851The Aloma being Lulu reveal. What the fuck was his motivation to send the evil army down to earth and fuck up everything in the first place?
>>282389128He wanted to destroy the current world so something new could flourish. Like how some forest fires are necessary for new growth. Apparently the buildings on Brigadoon used to be living things but died for that reason. There's never really an explanation for why he's wrong about that being the way to go but it seems things turned out fine. Aloma is Lulu after he teleports through space and time at the end, and he seems to have changed his mind on the matter by that point and helps things along to come to that end where he loses. It doesn't help that a lot of this is crammed into brief asides in the last episode. You could blink and miss critical information. I had to skip back a few times.
The beauty that happens when you let Yonetani do as he pleases
>>282390423I need to watch Betterman
