K.Rool Addict 718 June 21, 2017 Share June 21, 2017 (edited) What is life? I do not know anymore. How could something of this magnitude sneak up on me and somehow keep me in oblivion for the length of nearly half a freaking year? ^Someone explain to me how all of THIS went under my radar somehow?

Every character is fucking adorable as hell? ✓ Solid and surprisingly nuanced voice acting? ✓ Absurd, celestial setting with crazy fantasy elements? ✓ A return to form for the elusive Hugbox genre of cartoons? ✓ Seemingly "important" progression from episode to episode? ✓ Strong focus on world building in a "show don't tell" manner? ✓ An air of mystery surrounding all progression within the show? ✓ Potential treasure trove of exploitability ala image macros, gifs, or legendary shoops? ✓ Flash animation that actually looks "good" and complements the character designs instead of looking like lanky Flash puppet stick figures? ✓ Show for young kids with mature elements/ dialogue sneaked in without it being cringeworthy or immersion breaking? Holy crap! I thought only MLP: FiM and Ruby Gloom were capable of such. Double check for that! ✓✓ You've heard of "videogames that play like movies", right? Well this is basically the antithesis of that. It's a show that feels like you are playing (not watching) a videogame. Kinda like early Adventure Time episodes.

I think I might have been typing in "Hanamaru Sensation" on Youtube and when I got to "Hana" this popped up on the keyword predictions. Hanazuki Full of Treasures episode 1? Sounds like some stupid hipster, Tumblr bullshit, and then I went on my jolly way without even giving it a second thought.

ZethaPonderer 2,199 June 21, 2017 Share June 21, 2017 It really looks like I'm watching someone going on an acid trip, but in a 'feels good' kind-of way. It does remind me of a cartoon that would give anyone seizures, Problem Solverz. Imagine the Banned Seizure Inducing Pokemon Episode, but magnified and made into a TV show . However, unlike Problem Solverz, the bright and vibrant colors of Hanazuki: Full of Treasures are NOT seizure inducing. Not so much of a big fan on cute things in TV shows thanks to MLP Gen 3 and 3.5 (I'll just stick to cute things IRL), but this wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.Rool Addict 718 June 21, 2017 Author Share June 21, 2017 Man, I really really REALLY want a nice long extended remix of that opening theme Q.Q I searched all over Youtube and I can't find a thing! .... Although, I did find something rather, peculiar during my search: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=hanazuki+remix ^Hanazuki seems to have an astonishing number of Sparta remixes dedicated to it 0.0 None of them are particularly good, persay, but I wonder why they are so abundant? I really miss how the internet was back when Sparta remixes were big... it brings a tear to me eye tbh xD 1 Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.Rool Addict 718 June 22, 2017 Author Share June 22, 2017 Dude, I just watched eps 6-11 and I can't believe how deep this shit is getting >.> It already far surpassed anything from Ruby Gloom xD I was actually expecting the show to get worse once Kiazuki entered the picture. She just seemed to be such a generic "moody" character early on. But that wasn't further from the truth! @_@ This show is CONSTANTLY exceeding my expectations... it's such a nice breath of fresh air with all the rampant disappointments of E3 xD Spoiler Also, I can definitely see why people ship these characters lol 1 Why?

cmarston1 5,959 June 23, 2017 Share June 23, 2017 Hanazuki is a pretty enjoyable series. I really like the character designs and backgrounds as well as the theme song. So far my favorite character is Kiyoshi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
