One last headtilt for the Episode 12: Let us put an end to this summer story. For the final time... Let's「daze」. (Please make sure you've read my post here before continuing.) Spoiler: show I still plan to make some more wrap-up posts, including the review of 09 that I missed and an overall rating for the animé (which I don't normally do but because I care about this project I also need to be thoroughly critical), as well as a summary of the entire series as I was introduced to it. Some of these may overlap, so it will take me a while to organize my thoughts. P.S. @Midge: It's IA, not Miku.

With Mekaku City Actors having ended a week ago, I found the time and energy to sit down and write this final post of mine that would cover the final episode and the anime, as well as some thoughts/comments on Kagepro itself.
Firstly, Episode Twelve Spoiler: show And with the 12 Episodes out of the way, let's do a final anime review! Spoiler: show Coming next - Hiyori's Split Personalities Across Medias

My motivation has been wavering over the past couple weeks for a number of reasons, but I'm going to continue with my review(s), whether people will read/care or not.
That said, let's start with 09 and go from there. Since I said most of what I wanted to at the time here, the main purpose of this post will be to provide background information on the characters that wasn't shown/help catch the story up to speed with the other mediums. Most of the songs I will consider separately, so this summary generally focuses on the novels with a few references to the manga. (Also please keep in mind this post that not every detail described here may universally apply.) Graffiti Rangers, assemble! Episode 09: Spoiler warning for the novels/manga. (+ comparisons to characters from other series) Spoiler: show Thank you if you've read so far up to now. The next time the signal sounds... I'll tell you an even stranger story. P.S. The full cover of Kisaragi Attention is now available.

So ... it's no secret that Mekakucity Actors was disappointing to some viewers. I've had a difficult time motivating myself to write posts about a series which has wrapped up and which, to top it off, I wasn't too thrilled about. But I didn't hate the series either. And since I've held off reading others' posts until writing my own posts up, it's had the unfortunate consequence in this particular case of me not being able to stoke conversation about the series while it aired. It's a bit too late now, but I'm going to go back to the first posts I've yet to read, read them, and reply to them here. Then I'll try to squeeze out my thoughts on Episodes 11 and 12, read your posts on those episodes, and reply to those as well.
Replies to thoughts on Episode 09: Spoiler: show Replies to thoughts on Episode 10: Spoiler: show

Yuki's Lil Big Kagepro Masterpost "Being 'alone,' Doesn’t mean that 'no one is around you,' But rather, it means, 'you are not connected to anyone.'" -Jin/Shizen no Teki-P (Children Record commentary) There are two major overarching themes of the Kagerou Project: 1) Connections 2) Moving On (or so I thought up until the animé - but this post is not a discussion of Mekakucity Actors, though there will be references to it) Everything can mostly be subcategorized under one of these two headings. "Connections" is purposefully a blanket term - it includes friendship, familial connections, connections to people and events we never knew we had... While I've seen several stories that often place emphasis on one over the other, the Kagerou Project is perhaps the first I've encountered that incorporates and focuses on all these aspects as a whole. I'd like to emphasize that this is all my personal stance on the subject, and my views are not representative of the entire fanbase. Kagepro is a series that is highly open to viewer interpretation, so it's understandable that opinions will differ even without taking individual tastes into account. Its world is so expansive though that it tends to have something to offer almost everyone (which is perhaps both a strength and weakness of the franchise). That being said, the purpose of this post is not to provide an unbiased summary of the project, but to explain my overall experience and impressions. It is not intended as a spoiler-free introduction. In the interest of conciseness, I will be skipping certain songs and focus mainly on the ones with PVs, since the movies are the source of most entertainment and speculation. I will also try to minimize repeating points I've made before. If you're looking for a full overview of the entire project (including when to start with the LN/manga), I suggest checking out this link Akanjăo provided (though I will now take the opportunity to clarify some of the information presented in it). There are probably other guides fans have written that are more comprehensive than mine. With that disclaimer out of the way, I will go through the PVs roughly in the order I was introduced (with some alterations) and give my own commentary on each. So let's start with #1... While I don't recall whether it was exactly the first PV that I saw, it is the most famous and thus deserves to serve as forerunner - especially since it has not yet been linked in the thread. Kagerou Days/Daze Spoiler: show The other earliest song I can remember seeing is the one featuring our favorite fluffball... Souzou/Kuusou Forest Spoiler: show There was one other noteworthy PV I recall watching before delving into the manga: Toumei Answer Spoiler: show By association, another PV also "caught my attention". Har har. Kisaragi Attention Spoiler: show From here, the order in which I investigated the other PVs that were already released doesn't make a big difference (in regards to impact on my manga-reading experience), so I'll start with the actual "opening song"... Children Record Spoiler: show This PV was all but entirely skipped in the animé, and connects back to Kagerou Days: Konoha no Sekai Jijou Spoiler: show The next video is also somewhat related to above... Headphone Actor Spoiler: show After reading what was available of the manga and getting to know more of the characters, a new PV came out around that time... Yobanashi Deceive Spoiler: show I never bothered to keep up with the release of PVs that closely, but when I next checked I found two new ones were already out, so I watched them in close proximity. Lost Time Memory Spoiler: show While I was still reeling from such a huge development dump, the next PV made the emotional weight hit like a truckload of bricks: Ayano no Koufuku Riron Spoiler: show The following PV was made by Wannyanpuu, who hadn't done one since Kisaragi Attention. Guess who it's about... Otsukimi Recital Spoiler: show This PV was also full of the fluffs: Yuukei Yesterday Spoiler: show The last few songs I am going to cover slightly out of the order that I viewed them in. Chronologically, this next PV was released directly after Yuukei Yesterday, but I did not see it until after the subsequent one. Outer Science Spoiler: show Before I move on to the actual "ED theme" of the series, I want to visit a couple other songs. This one doesn't have a PV, but I include it here because it is a lovely little tune... Marry no Kakuu Sekai Spoiler: show The PV for this was originally canceled due to "spoilers", but was released as a special DVD bonus months after the song series concluded. Shounen Brave Spoiler: show Finally, we come to the "end"... Summer Time Record Spoiler: show That about covers most of the music. Please feel free to check out the manga and light novel translations if you're interested. Lots more info and links can also be found on the Kagerou Project Wiki. You can ask me any questions as well, though I might not have all the answers. I'm going to close off this post with one more music video of my own making.[/shamelessadvertising] Song choice preference aside - while it or this type of expression might not suit everyone, I feel it best sums up the "story through my eyes". It's not perfect by any means either and there are mistakes, but it's the one I poured the most effort and affection into as a "tribute" of sorts soon after the song series "wrapped up" with STR. Spoiler: show tl;dr These children are precious (to me). They're not out to save the world or anything, but they are fighting their own battle - albeit clumsily, as children do. Their opponent involves the supernatural, but also internal struggles such as social anxiety and depression, loneliness, coping with loss, etc. Through it all they find strength and support in each other. At its core, Kagepro is not a very complicated story. It's just about a group of kids - good people - trying to live their lives. It's about friendship and growing up and all that jazz that comes with your typical coming-of-age tales. Kagepro just takes everything that I love and combines it together in one huge glorious mess (with a dash of mystery for good measure). I can't say I mind the mess either, as it's fun getting eau my dirty sometimes. ;O (Even if I'm the one stuck cleaning up after it. Damn [daze] hoodlums and their spray paintcans.) Adolescence is a messy time in one's life, but seeing these children trying their hardest to act at being adults despite their inexperience is adorable and heartbreaking in its own way. I've decided to watch over them to the end - whatever that "end" may be. My next post will contain a final review of Mekakucity Actors, as well as some closing comments on the series overall. I hope you've found this post somewhat helpful, even if it just turned out to be me ranting on various things. Happy August 15th, and stay safe, everyone. Remember that there is always someone out there who cares about you. You may not have met them yet, but there are kind souls in this world. Those who understand, who are willing to take the time to, and others who may even be going though the same situation. You are not alone.[/cheese]

I'll admit it, I didn't even know what MCA or Kagepro were until last week, when I watched all 12 episodes this past sunday. I was about to do my customary rewatching for hidden details when I found about the PV's........ Which managed to give the same amount, if not more, information than the anime in the time frame of about two episodes. That being said, I'm gonna give my thoughts on those because they're fresher in my mind (never mind being superior story), then give my thoughts on the anime afterwards. Without further ado...
Children Record Spoiler: show Artificial Enemy Spoiler: show Mekakushi Code Spoiler: show Kagerou Daze Spoiler: show Headphone Actor Spoiler: show Imagination Forest Spoiler: show Tomei Answer Spoiler: show Kisaragi Attention Spoiler: show Konoha's State of the World Spoiler: show Dead and Seek Spoiler: show Night Tales Deceive Spoiler: show Shounen Brave Spoiler: show Yukei Yesterday Spoiler: show Ayano's Happiness Theory Spoiler: show Moonview Recital Spoiler: show Explanations Galore! I mean, Lost Time Memory Spoiler: show Outer Scinece Spoiler: show I haven't yet seen Summertime Record, so I'll move on to my thoughts on the anime: Spoiler: show Finally, I have something I found while hunting for English subs for Daze (these songs sure get plenty of spanish subs). I sure hope you all enjoy it! Spoiler: show Last edited by Median Dia; 08-16-2014 at 10:09 PM. |

>Artificial Enemy I'm assuming the video you watched is this one, in which case I should inform you that this is a fan-made PV, created after the release of Lost Time Memory. The original upload simply used a picture of Ene as the background. (One thing I would take note of is the clothes she's wearing though...) >Mekakushi Code Again, if you watched this video, please be aware that this is also fan-made. (I wouldn't necessarily say it's sung by Ene either, just that it also uses Miku's vocals.) As before the original just contains an image of Kido's character art. (Aside: When I first saw it I thought "hey that's a cool-looking guy". *shot*) P.S. On that note, the full animé version is out. >Kagerou Daze See disclaimers above for this version. Here is the original, which isn't quite as static as the previous two but essentially repeats the same pattern. I hope you enjoy these videos all the same, as they show the fans' hard work and dedication to bringing some of their favorite songs/characters to life. (I'm really glad you decided to mention Dead and Seek btw and give Tateyama-sensei his due.) Just remember that they're not necessarily canon so I'd take their visuals with a grain of salt. Quote:
Spoiler: show I also really like this piano cover, strangely even more so than the slow ballad version. Seems I have a weakness for happy-sounding things that are actually sad. OTL Thanks very much for sharing that with the thread, and again for writing your analysis. If you have a Skype account btw there is a chat group where such fanworks are also welcome. (More like I still spam it everyday with pictures and crack. ^^; *shot*) Nowadays it's also used for light animé discussion and just general hanging out. Feel free to shoot me a PM if you'd like to join. =)

Yeah, I figured out the PV's I watched for AE and MC were fan-made a few hours after my initial post. Thankfully, the original Kagerou Days was the one I watched first, so I get off scott-free on that one (screw you, shadow doppelgangers!).
@Ene and Mekakushi Code I was looking at a specific line when I came to my conclusion: "By the way, even me- I'm a 2D otaku, hikikomori, NEET". Ene is the only character who fits that description (Shin and Konoha are 3D, after all). Since I've seen it in two different translations now, I don't believe it's a translation error. Besides, if I had been using the diva as my proof, then Ene, Konoha, and Hibiya would all be Miku, and I'm fairly certain two of them are of the wrong gender for that to be the case. Her character should stay away from Kagepro. ...Wait, was this song even played in the anime? I don't remember it's episode leaving enough room to do so... On the other hand, I think I've drawn a solid conclusion regarding Outer Science: Spoiler: show Anime note: Spoiler: show I'll try to get a Skype set up later join you guys, though I can't give any guarantees. My computer is having a few issues despite my father being an IT worker, so yeah. Last edited by Median Dia; 08-18-2014 at 01:04 AM. |

Sorry I meant to reply to this earlier but got distracted by things. >.>; (i.e. Skype & streams OTL)

(Although one interesting bit of trivia I learned from researching the lyrics is that "heel" can refer to "The actor assuming the part of the bad guy, who is designated to piss off the audience", so the "blond heel" may be referring to Kano.) Mekakushi Code was played during the show. I linked the full animé version earlier. Here was the TV portion. (If you're referring to Artificial Enemy then no, it was not played during the first episode. Neither of Ene's songs appeared in the animé.) Quote:

In other news, the animé version of Kagerou Days/Daze is out.

My version: Spoiler: show I have such strange and complicated feelings. '~' Would take too long to explain so just a couple notes: 1) For split colors, the one on top is typically what I lean towards more. 2) There are differences depending on the person's perspective. (Ex: HibiKono is separate from KonoHibi.) I also darkened the orange so it's easier to differentiate from yellow. Probably missed/mixed up some stuff but meh. P.S. In the spirit of shipping, the full Yuukei Yesterday is out! (Will edit with a YT link once one's available.)

A glass ball
Final Review of Mekakucity Actors One year ago, the Kagerou Project music series came to a close with the release of the Summer Time Record PV. With summer almost over and in honor of Kagepro's ending anniversary, it’s time to put the review of its sister series, Mekakucity Actors, to rest Story: 5/10 When you get down to it, the Kagerou Project is not a complex tale. In fact it's perhaps the childish simplicity of it all that I find most refreshing. However, the animé presents itself in such a vague, disjointed, and pretentious manner that is bound to confuse and drive off anyone already unfamiliar with the plot (or lack thereof). While this method of withholding information to keep people guessing may work in other forms of media, it obviously did not pan out for television. Due to its very nature, Kagepro may be a story inherently unsuited for a linear episodic format - which was only made worse by a combination of poor pacing, planning, and limited timeframe. Characters: 6/10 Where Kagepro lacks in plot development, it aims to make up for in the character department. Mekakucity Actors is meant to be an emotionally driven narrative supported mainly by its characters and themes, but none of them came across to the extent I had hoped for. Despite focusing half of its allotted time on essential backstory, the show barely scratches the surface of most of the (extensive) cast, making them feel hollow. (It is a similar problem with Angel Beats!, which I was afraid of when I heard the runtime.) Where it did succeed in exploring certain character dilemmas, it failed to resolve them in a satisfactory manner. There were moments where the Kagerous got to show off their charm - and courage - though, and as vehicles for simply telling the story they served their purpose well enough. Art: 4/10 Whether you're fond of SHAFT’s surrealism or not, the general animation quality here was utterly low, with some horrendous aesthetic choices given the broad audience's expectations. I won't fuss over specifics at this point, but needless to say I was sorely let down by the lack of care and attention afforded to not just a widely popular production, but one that is dear to so many. (Even JC Staff treated Little Busters! better than this.) Giving credit where it's due, I feel SHAFT did try to adhere to the PV formula by leaving lots of visual clues here and there. It takes an invested/educated fan to spot them though, and for the casual viewer it's not enough to rely on "all style and no substance". Sound: 8/10 Where the series shines is in its source: music. Here is one area where for the most part Mekakucity Actors did not disappoint. Most of the song covers by themselves were great, even if some of them could've been worked into the story/matched with the visuals better. The BGM was mostly bland and forgettable, but there were a couple pieces that stood out to me (in connection with certain scenes). The voice acting was also good, and it was a treat to finally hear favorites speaking. Though some weren't exactly how I imagined the Kagerous to sound at first, all the voices have grown on me immensely. Enjoyment: 7/10 For all my gripes and complaints, there were parts of the animé I really liked - particularly in addition to canon. I appreciate MCA's existence for the one or two heartwarming gems and tidbits of information alone, even if aside from those few rare instances the show has little to offer. MCA marks the first time I've been super-excited to watch an animé as it was airing, so it was a brand new experience for me - knowing some of what would happen yet also looking forward to new content. What really made watching it more Overall: 6/10 I went into Mekakucity Actors tentatively anticipating a personal 8/10 or above, even if objectively it did not reach such heights. After episode 04, those prospects were significantly lowered, wavering back and forth for a while without assuming it would get much better despite bouts of enthusiasm. Then 09 came along and nearly drove the nail into the coffin. Even when 10 and 11 restored some of my faith, I knew it could never match the vision I once had. As much as I had still wanted to stick with a standard 7 up until the series finale, given the lackluster conclusion and number of other strikes, I'm going to have to be fair(ly generous) by scoring Mekakucity Actors a final 6/10, which is the same rating I gave the Little Busters! adaptation. While I would say LB handled itself more sensibly, having not played the game I can't really judge as well. All I know is I adore the original Kagerou Project and what it stands for. Even if MCA didn't live up to the same glory, I'll at least allow myself a little bit of room for bias. Overall Series Final Thoughts and Impressions Quote:
I like these kids a lot, and I'm proud for them and Jin that they got their animé debut - even if the results were less than stellar. The Kagerous are some of the sweetest and bravest souls I've had the pleasure of being introduced to. Of all reasons to fight, all they want is to have friends/family - and I approve of that 100%. They are such cute and strong little heroes in their own right - as well as my adorable babies I want to protect, and screw anyone who tries to mess with them. *hiss* That includes SHAFT, the author, and fans as well. The story is not without its flaws, and Jin's newbieness as a writer clearly shows. Still, the amount of love and dedication put into the project is apparent. Sacrificing time, energy, and even friendships for one's passion... Is something I can relate to. Though I can only dream of creating something that is able to reach out and affect others in such a way. Kagepro has everything I could've ever wanted in a franchise. It is a mess, but it is a beautiful mess to me. Where there are weaknesses, the fandom has stepped in to help fill the gaps/improve it. I've enjoyed everything that's come out of the fandom: theories, fanart, comics, music, crack... The amount of creativity Kagepro inspires is astounding, and I agree with its original concepts so much that I believe they do deserve attention. While none of the individual media may have honestly impressed me that much yet (outside of the songs), taken as a collective whole - fandom included - the Kagerou Project, and even by extension Mekakucity Actors, has been a wonderful journey (if occasionally stressful). There's still plenty of potential for further expansion in the novels and manga as well, so I will continue to watch over the Mekakushi Dan there. There's one last thing I want to say before wrapping up, both on Jin's and the Kagerous' behalf, and from myself... THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! \o/ Kagepro is very special to me and has become a big part of my life. I want to thank everyone who tuned into Mekakucity Actors for being willing to give the show/my recommendation a chance, and I appreciate those who stuck with it/put up with my ranting. XP To the fans and new viewers alike out there, thank you. For not giving up, providing criticism/input, or even just checking out one episode... I'm glad the series got exposure For me, the best part of Mekakucity Actors has been getting to meet and know better so many awesome people. ='3 You guys are such amazing friends... I love y'all. <3 (Minna... Daisuki...) The Skype chat is still open to anyone who wants to join. ^^ You don't have to be into MCA/Kagepro either, just like you don't need to have red eyes to be a Mekakushi Dan member. (Although be prepared to deal with tons of spam/craziness. *shot*) Please also feel free to keep using the thread for discussion if you like; I will probably continue providing updates with news/song releases in the future. Until next time... See you later.

I haven't updated with song releases in a while, but with all the DVDs out at this point I've decided to just make a post with the full MCA OST for reference, including bonus tracks. Singers listed in parentheses.
daze (MARiA from GARNiDELiA) days (Lia) Children Record (Jin feat. MARiA from GARNiDELiA) Kisaragi Attention (Haruna Luna) Mekakushi Code (Yasagure Koneko) Kagerou Days (Shoichi Taguchi) Yuukei Yesterday (LiSA) Headphone Actor (LiSA) Konoha's State of the World (Nanou) Lost Time Memory (Kohta Matsuyama from BYEE the ROUND) Ayano no Koufuku Riron (Okui Aki) Kuusou Forest (Takumi Yoshida) Otsukimi Recital (IA) Summer Time Record (Jin) Still hoping they release the BGM at some point... If only for that one track from ep. 08... Also for anyone who wants to see the re-done version of the 09 OP, here's a link to it on tumblr. (I haven't been able to find a clean high-res version uploaded to YT yet. Will edit if one appears.) Happy New Year, y'all Mekakushi Dan.

I asked this in Skype, but what of the Kagerou Project songs would be classified as high-intensity? I'm looking for something similar to, say, Kaiji's opening and dissimilar from Idolmaster's "Aoi Tori". To juxtapose the extremes.

To clarify, the full MCA OST is being released on April 1, and it will also include new covers of some of the songs. This site lets you preview the tracks. It doesn't seem to have all the new covers (I expect they'll be on the special edition). However the full Yobanashi Deceive arrangement was uploaded last night along with an AMV. (Yes, another SHAFT montage.)

Today marks the 1-year anniversary of MCA's first episode. To celebrate, here are a bunch of new song covers that were recently released on the Mekakucity M's soundtrack:
Yobanashi Deceive (LiSA & MARiA from GARNiDELiA) Shounen Brave (nano.RIPE) Outer Science (ONE) Marry no Kakuu Sekai (Lia & Maya) Shinigami Record (Lia) Gunjou Rain (Okui Aki) Toumei Answer (Shoichi Taguchi & Annabel) I also want to take the chance to promote a petition to have Jin as a guest at Anime Expo this year. He's currently in a rough situation right now, so it would be really nice to show him support in any way. Thank you, Jin, for all you've given us. This series has had its ups and downs, but I still appreciate the amount of effort and love you've put into it. Please remember to take care of yourself, and that you have fans out there who enjoy your work and wish you well.
