Godzilla Singular Point

First off dont go watching it if you want to see a lot of Godzilla action. He is in it like for 1-5 min at most (yes all 13 episodes included.) in fact they could just rename the whole series to Jet Jaguar's adventures or Jet Jaguar Singular Point. Too much sciense talk, which you dont mind at first because you think you'll see some action towards the end but then after midway through the series you realize its all there is to this anime. All talk no action. I dont need some super calculater of whatever to know disaster is coming when Godzilla is plowing through the city. Even at the end you expect some epic clash between the title character and Jet Jaguar but you never get it. Characters are somewhat likable (AI was the cutest.) plot was.... waaay over my head which I stopped trying to make sense of it after a while. Every cool thing a sci fi nerd would like is in this anime: Time Travel (not like an actual time travel but sending information back in forth in time) and Kaijus what more could you want right? But it does nothing with it. Try watching your favorite godzilla movie and time travel movie at the same time you'll have much better time and it will hurt your head less. I only give it 5 because of its opening theme.

Another Spring anime just ended. A mystery surrounding the hurricane of red dust and the appearance of many kaiju that swept through the world.

Right of the bat, the animation was awesome. There was heavy use of CGI on the kaiju. Even though I don't like CGI animation, it was pretty well done here. Godzilla looked mighty and more like a lizard than in the live-action movies. When Godzilla used atomic breath, there's an add-on animation with multiple circles that looked very cool.

The tricky part was the story. Even though I got the general plot, the physics behind it was beyond my comprehension. Because the plot was confusing, it was hard to follow at times and invest in the overall story. However, the pacing was still fast and didn't drag out. The AI spoke at the speed of light, so I had to work my eyes more to read all the subtitles. It wasn't an issue.

The characters didn't have any backstory, which was understandable because of the urgency of the plot. I didn't invest much in any of the characters, except Jet Jaguar, because of the complicated plot.

Overall, a pretty entertaining anime despite the complicated plot. 6.5/10.

I'm not sure what demographic they intended this series to be aimed at, it's too confusing for younger audiences, and not enough action to keep it interesting. The science talk is just too much out there to fully understand. The animation was just fine, but the story never quite answered all my questions. Hard to recommend for anyone who wants a monster show.

Godzilla Singular point is a delicate weave of theoretical physics and mythology which returns to the roots of science fiction.

The anime weaves together a mysterious plot through the use of real concepts which are just on the edge of public general understanding and only engages in science-fantasy when necessary for the setting or plot. The "science" part of "science fiction" is often completely ignored in sci-fi works, and just explained with made up terms and an understanding that "it just works, because it's the future".

In Godzilla Singular Point I was astonished by just how well they weaved the science into the story. I excitedly showed it to friends of mine who have experience in the field of physics and they were similarly surprised and delighted. The show spends the majority of it's time building an expertly crafted atmosphere of mystique and mystery. I invite viewers to take their time digesting the terms and concepts which are introduced and search up terms they don't understand, altho I also recognize that some may see this suggestion as a recognition of a glaring flaw.

I do think the higher level concepts limit the shows audience. It's intended viewership seems to be those who have at least been curious enough to have looked up some videos on the subjects in the past. Where I see a refreshing take on science fiction, other viewers might see an unnecessarily complex series of jargon and become frustrated.

Fantastic and detailed series that re-contextualizes the Godzilla/kaiju mythos through modern quantum physics. Full on neediness that also shows the (new) origins giant robot Jet Jaguar. Due to the pacing and content - best enjoyed by hardcore Godzilla fans who appreciate the legend and science.

Hyper-detailed, fast paced and very nerdy. This anime is not for casual fans.
