Worst of 2016: Bungou Stray Dogs
By Dustin Cabeal
This is just X-Men but sponsored by the government… and a detective agency… so really it’s like two different volumes of X-Factor. None of it is good or that different. There’s a character trying, poorly, to kill himself. Watching him for two minutes on the screen I couldn’t understand why anyone would try and stop him.
I can tolerate a generic story with trope heavy characters. I can’t tolerate when you break your own story for convenience and bad voice acting. Bungou Stray Dogs did both in the first episode… and it had the annoying guy trying to kill himself. If you liked this, good on you. I know I’m in the minority because this shit’s getting a second season. I could probably name five bad, but fun to watch shows that I would rather get a second season, but I guess we’ll just get a lot of annoying cosplay from this show instead.
