But to that, you might say: Come on, when it
comes to works from the infamous, primarily 3DCG studio that produced one of the god-awful shows of the 2010s (a la Hand Shakers), how can . you NOT be excited about how the studio is going to continue wrecking source materials going forward? And my answer will be: GoHands has probably the biggest risk of producing not 1, but 2 shows this season, and
while the core staff team may still be overzealous of its prowess in uncommon animation techniques, I personally think that GoHands has really scored big this Summer season.
Things will be moving toward the single OBVIOUS direction, someone will randomly pop in with some utter buffoon shit which, in the mind of any reasonable fucking person on the planet, would only make themselves seem more suspicious than the person they’re accusing, but everyone will just be like, “OMG that’s so smart! I didn’t even think of it like that! So let’s all adopt that line of thinking now and go the complete opposite direction so the contrivance that is this stupid fucking game can keep being turned into a shitty anime!” It’s SO all
over the place with who is and isn’t playing 4D chess! In one set-up, one character will be a smirking, Machiavellian edgelord engineering the psychology of everyone around them, and in the next, it’s someone completely different. Whoever needs to be the devil on the shoulder of whichever character can successfully become so instantly, and if the person they need to manipulate actually had their wits about them in previous scenes, their wits will very quickly be not-so-about them, and they’ll prance blindly into whatever trap they need to prance into to keep the contrivance train rolling. The resulting mess is too frustrating for words, and while the characters are all horribly written, I guess the show succeeded in making you emotionally engage with them anyway, because their braindead decision-making will—I promise—make you want to tear your Goddamn eyes out. Whether a character is saying something totally daft and unreasonable while everyone else is treating them like the prophet, or for no reason refusing to say the ONE expectable and reasonable thing any real human being would say in their situation while everyone else is acting like their behavior is a legitimate smoking gun, the level of contrivance required for conflict makes every character feel downright detached and confusing whenever you actually try putting yourself in their shoes.
But forget about our cast of miserable non-characters for just a minute and let it sink in how stupid this is purely from a plot perspective. For example, in one episode they’re playing a game where they get to anonymously expose awful things about one another, and the live audience
moves each of them closer toward final condemnation by voting for who they hate as they grow to dislike each of the characters based on what’s revealed about them. At one point, they enter a gambit where one character is presented with an opportunity to nominate another character to have something horrendous revealed about them by the showrunners. In other words, it’s not just some gossip being revealed by another character, but rather a piece of damning information which the organizers of the Tomodachi Game themselves have privately investigated with whatever resources they have at their disposal, implying, “Your friends may know some dirty shit about you, but we know EVERYTHING about you, including your deepest, darkest, most well-kept secrets. ” Immediately after this gambit is resolved, someone gives a fake piece of information about the person who was JUST EXPOSED in the gambit, that person insists the information is false, and Manabu, the hideous CG Front Man, says, “lol how do we know that’s fake information? Prove it, retard. ” AS IF HE DIDN’T JUST IMPLY THE PREVIOUS GAMBIT WOULD’VE ALREADY REVEALED HIS DARKEST SECRET! Every reveal is completely dependent on wherever God Yuichi is in whatever master plan he happens to be engaged in at any given moment, and if that means even the almightily showrunners themselves have to look surprised or incompetent, then so be it. Every character is made to be fooled, every rule is made to be broken, and everything is made to bend to God Yuichi’s sadistic, malicious will.
