There she is! Wridra is my absolute favorite character in the series. Can't wait to see more of her animated. In general I really like the adaptation so far. The main selling point of the series is to feel the happiness of the mundane through someone else's eyes and the animation and voice acting do a banger job delivering on this.
FYI: They're skipping a lot here. I would highly recommend reading the source manhwa or even better the light novel based on the manhwa which added more details on top.
And it even continues after the movie ends when you look it up. First you see that the lights on the movie poster are not fireflies but incendiary bombs and then you read further and learn that it's based on the real-life experiences of the author and was written as an apology to his dead sister. I mean it was his pride that led to her very slow and miserable death, so I can see him having problems coming to terms with that. It's a movie that just keeps on giving. I always say it's the best movie I only watch once.
Not for me. As far as genre parodies go it feels like this is one of those that really like the source genre and and only poke very light fun at it - basically a fun show for everyone that likes the sentai genre in the first place. As someone who finds this genre obnoxious I would have liked a type of parody that brutally tears the source apart. Or at least something in the middle between those two.
Lot's of anime are sad but most of them end on a positive or hopeful note. That's why I consider anime that end on a bleak note to be sadder. Stuff like Grave of the Fireflies or the recent Look Back.
Not what I got from that scene at all. He said she could be his daughter, yes, but he is old enough that someone at the theoretical daughter age would be an adult. She also doesn't look like an underage girl and she is the proprietress of an inn. Nothing really that gave me any underage vibes.
But in all fairness, I'm in this age bracket and my own kids are all adults already so seeing someone in their twenties as "daughter-age" isn't so far fetched to me.
