Country roads, take me home ~~
Wanting something chill, this anime is a remake of older anime that was made back in 2003. Having watching that, and remembering several important plotlines, i would say this anime is not for everyone.
The story barely have any setup. You just need to know that our protagonist is a girl that travel around with her bike which can talk. Pretty much this bike character is sole reason for this series to have something interesting. Mainly because our protagonist was supposed to emotionless and doesnt react much to the weird countries that she went. That said, this is the main reason why i felt the series still not something i could enjoy despite it is supposed to have good source material.
Most of human / countries in this anime is truly bizarre, especially with their own unique rule. Their mind are so freaking twisted that made me want to just shoot every each of them. That said, aside from some episodes, this whole season felt very flat. Some of episodes was supposed to be tragic, and yet it failed to bring the mood needed. This pacing was rushed also considered bad as the source material supposed more thought provoking explaining how those human supposed to represent our real life.
Should watch this? Im not sure, as it was boring for me despite I can stand many slow burner anime. It felt it have potential but didnt bring anything new or interesting to the table.
