Banality & Mediocrity
The 6th episode/movie of the Kara no Kyoukai series.
This one might be the most differentiated of all episodes, but unfortunately not in a good way. Among the aspects which are different from the other parts :
- There is not not a drop of blood or symbolic violence in a series that is clearly violent & gore. Hell even the villain's power was represented by an evil beautiful flower.
- The tone is quite childish throughout this part, especially in the depiction of Mikiya's sister ; whereas Kishi's tone & her beastiality are more polished.
- There are no pretentious dialogues, but rather boring & trivial talks (slice-of-life style) or messy expositions unveiling the (non-existent) mystery.
The unchanged aspects are related to the production values : excellent music here again, beautiful settings & amazing work on the lights, & generally very good animation.
But overall the story was boring, the characters empty, and the denouement most expected. Absolutely nothing is interesting in the f**** scenario.
