    Face of a Baby, Body of a Babe (Alita: Battle Angel)

    Time for another anime-inspired property, and one that falls into the same pits as Blood of Zeus...Alita: Battle Angel! Now, we deciphered a lot of this movies short comings come out of just being a pretty faithful adaptation to the original OVA (minus Chiren NOT being completely naked when she fixes Grewishka, which rude). Just felt like in a world where we're familiar with this genre of dystopian anime, you gotta at least brush on some of the established tropes to deepend the structure, if only to appease the western audiences! I know that's a little bit of a problematic statement, but big Blockbuster movies aren't for hardcore anime nerds! There's a happy medium with appeasing the hardcore fanbase while also sacrificing to make it a stronger western story. I mean, come on, this movie moved simultaneously too fast and too slow! We did NOT need a full as 10 minute chunk where they played NOT BLITZBALL! They also omitted a lot of Hugo's backstory? But kept a lot of Alita eating...Whatever, WILD choices, and DEFINITELY not enough action! MORE ROBOT GUTS, and more Robot F***S for sure!! Is Alita too much of a simp for Hugo? Is this faithful adaptation doing a deserve for a western audience? IS THIS THE BEST WESTERN ADAPTATION OF AN ANIME TO EXIST?! Yes, yes, and YES WE DUNNO TELL US IF YOU FIND A BETTER ONE!

    Karate Insurrectionists (Cobra Kai - Season 3)

    HAI YA!! We're kicking into a new episode of Rude Dudes with a new Netflix/old YouTube Red (Originals) show, Cobra Kai! While we all LOVE this show, we can definitively say season 3 is a little nutty (but in all the right ways). Kreese gets an interesting backstory where we find out football bros bullied him into the army cause his mom committed suicide, then makes his war crime snake pit brawling his personality?! Like, he's a cartoon villain, but with good reason! Also poor... Everyone?! This show has no character that isn't dealing with immense trauma, and they are literally taking it out on each other through Karate?? Maybe making East LA a Karate footloose zone isn't a bad idea... But this season hit more nostalgic sequel points with Daniel's crazy irresponsible trip to Okinawa! While we loved to see Kumiko and Chozen coming back in major ways, we didn't appreciate the immense flex of privilege. Like Sam... We know a sob story doesn't give you an excuse to be a bully, but Tory's goin' through it and Karate's all she has!! Will Johnny Lawrence ever get his shit together? Will Robbie learn appropriate timing to never walk in on bad news? WILL ELISABETH SHUE EVER LEARN KARATE?! No, no, and RIP NO BUT WE WANT THAT FOR HER!!
