More Cult-Made Anime Reviewed

Some time ago I brought you a video from Geoff Thew over at Mother’s Basement about a series of anime created by a Japanese cult, and how crazy, historically inaccurate, and downright silly (and possibly blasphemous) it was. Well that was part one. Last night I had trouble sleeping so rather than ramble about a topic my brain can only partly process it’s time to bring you part two. I hope he gets part three out so I can show you that in the future.

Again, I’m not mentioning the cult by name since he does it in the video and text is easier to search for, but the last one had weird views on history, a leader whose wife was as amazingly awesome as he was until they divorced and she became “the evil”, time travel, noted scientists as deities, and this one is going to be more of the same. So rather than do that rambling I’m trying to avoid let me give you the usual swear warning on top of the insanity warning and let the professional #$%#bag take over. Note this starts with Helen Keller joining the ranks of deity, so I guess I had one more warning for those who find that offensive. Because it is…and it’s not the most offensive thing you’ll see.

So…about that manga he mentions? Come back later today for a bit more on that.

Chapter By Chapter> Star Trek: Prime Directive part 4 (finale)

Chapter By Chapter features me reading one chapter of the selected book at the time and reviewing it as if I were reviewing an episode of a TV show or an issue of a comic. There will be spoilers if you haven’t read to the point I have, and if you’ve read further I ask that you don’t spoil anything further into the book. Think of it as read-along book club.

Part 4: The New Mission

Last time we wrapped up the main story, though not satisfactory in my opinion. Now we’re going to tie up the loose ends with two short chapters and an epilogue, though frankly all of part 4 is kind of an epilogue really. How will the status quo be restored or is this how we end the five-year mission? Well, I’m out of things to say intro-wise so let’s get into the review.
