Please Do Not Waste Your Time Watching This

Please do not waste your time watching this, for the following reasons:

1.) It is not informative or entertaining. The documentarian/narrator is clueless on the topic and offers no meaningful insights. 2.) It is artless garbage, with editing so poor that it is close to physically painful. 3.) Its condescending oversimplifications of Japanese culture are extremely embarrassing to have to hear. 4.) It isn't even a documentary, its mainly a promotion, as the majority of the shows discussed are recent "Netflix Originals" rather than iconic or well-known series.

So please don't watch it, if too many people do than Netflix might get the wrong impression and make more utterly unforgivable rubbish like this. A true dumpster fire.

A waste of time

Extremely superficial. Feels like a Netflix promotion of their anime productions.

50 minute netflix ad

Lost me when she called anime a medium. one giant netflix ad either way. no real thesis to the "documentary" either, just rambles on and on eith no point.

Very misleading, feels forced

This documentary expends most of its time on random monologues narrated by the author, most of it bring no information about the subject of anime or japan. The fact that the person doing the documentary states knowing nothing about anime also doesn't help, simply because the questions you may be interested are never asked. The interviews are mostly a waste of time for the professionals, the pace is cringe, and you will not learn anything new even if you have never seen anime. Gladly its short.
