Unnamed Memory - Season 1

What kept me hooked on Unnamed Memory was the chemistry between the main duo and how their relationship evolved throughout the series. They had a fun dynamic, often engaging in playful banter (not quite at the level of Holo and Lawrence, but still enjoyable). From the first episode, I really liked Oscar and Tinasha, and I saw the show as the dark horse of the season. The only thing that bothered me initially was Oscar's annoying servant. Unfortunately, I ended up feeling quite disappointed. The story and pacing were a letdown. It felt rushed in parts, like the source material was heavily trimmed down, and there wasn't enough explanation. The plot seemed disjointed and hard to follow, almost like a series of events hastily pieced together to get from point A to point B. The finale, with its time travel and paradoxes, didn't sit well with me either. If the creators intended to get me excited for a second season, it had the opposite effect. I'm now more worried about the potential pitfalls of playing with time and altering the past, a complex theme that few stories handle well. Despite these issues, I'll give the second season a shot in January. As for this one? The main characters were great, some supporting characters were decent, but others were either terrible or forgettable. The story didn't captivate me, and some parts are already fading from my memory. The pacing was off, but the animation was quite good, and the music was fine. There's potential here, but also a lot of room for improvement. Overall, I'd rate it a 5.5/10. (25.06.2024)
