So, normally I try to go see an anime movie playing in theaters. And really I think nothing of it. However, this is too crazy not to share with people.
I was originally planning on seeing Tunnel to Summer Exit of Goodbyes and then Ghost In The Shell afterwards. I was going to sneak in to see Tunnel to Summer Exit of Goodbyes, and then catch Ghost In The Shell, which I paid my ticket for. Well, I get there and the theater is closed. I was told it was maintenance issues and that it should open up in a hour. Inside, I’m freaking because this is really my one chance to see Tunnel to Summer Exit of Goodbyes. I didn’t know it was in theaters until yesterday, and I don’t have any money to see it tomorrow which is the final day.
Eventually, we’re let in– it’s like me and one other person– and the ushers are in front of the lobby not letting anyone go past them until 30 minutes before the movie. I’m seeing Ghost In The Shell, the other guy is seeing Digimon Adventure 2, and we’re basically at a standstill like we’re Mexican gunslingers about to duel. Only thing missing was the Spaghetti Western musical accompaniment.
Eventually, I saw some people head for a theater and I follow them, making it seem like I was with their crew. I catch the end of Tunnel to Summer Exit of Goodbyes, which is better than nothing, and then head to my Ghost In The Shell screening.
Now here’s where things get funky.
I was going to see the sub version of Ghost In The Shell. However, whoever sent the print of the movie to the theater sent the dub copy. As I’m sitting in the theater, an usher comes in to tell me they got the wrong version. And because of this, I can stay and watch it, there won’t be any previews because they just want to get this over with by this point, and I would be getting a full refund plus a ticket entitling me to one free movie.
Now, I’ve never seen Ghost In The Shell before. I didn’t frankly care whether it was sub or dub, I just wanted to see the movie. It’s not like I’m some sub purist who thinks an anime is ruined if it’s dubbed. But I wasn’t going to turn down a free film.
Eventually, I got up, got my refund, got my free admissions ticket, and then went back to my seat. And then after the movie was over, I caught like 15 minutes of Tunnel to Summer Exit of Goodbyes as I waited for an Uber.
This was easily the craziest movie experience I’ve ever been apart of. And while I didn’t get to see the entirety of Tunnel to Summer Exit of Goodbyes, what I did see was excellent. As for Ghost In The Shell, it was a very good movie but it left me wanting more. I could have taken another hour of that concept. I guess that’s why they eventually made the TV show.
Also, for those curious, I plan on using my free admissions ticket for Anatomy of a Fall in three days time.

Finally watched the Attack on Titan series finale. Overall, I’d probably give it an 8.5 out of 10. A lot of it made sense within the context of the show and I don’t really feel any character motivations were betrayed; maybe in the eyes of those who think Eren is still good, but I think most people would agree he’s an antihero at best at this point.
The only parts I didn’t like were the king stuff and the stuff where everyone is lamenting what happened to Eren. I kinda get what the show was going for, these characters have an obvious emotional attachment to him, but you literally spent the last 20 minutes beforehand talking about what a coward Eren is. It is hard to feel sad for him, he kinda let it happened.
I thought it was really poetic that the first half was like action, action, action and then the second half was a lot of talking. The reason why I felt it was smart is because it paralleled Attack on Titan as a show: the first half being the early seasons and the second half being the later seasons. What we ended up getting was like a cross between the excitement of the first few seasons mixed with the character study stuff of seasons 4 and 5, an encompassment of what made the show so compelling all rolled into one.
With the exception of a few details, I don’t think you could ask for anything more.

I kinda see the moral of the Attack on Titan ending as being “Be honest with your feelings. Don’t put yourself in a situation where it will cost you happiness.” Eren talks about how much he is in love with Mikasa and he couldn’t bare to see her with anyone else, and Armin is just so pissed off because this whole mess could’ve easily had been avoided had Eren just been straight with her. The finale doesn’t present Eren as evil or someone to feel sympathy for but rather this perennial loser who just couldn’t do the right thing. He’s like Shinji except with even less backbone.

You know Christian Bale, who voiced Howl in “Howl’s Moving Castle”, was preparing for his role in “Batman Begins” at the time?

I’m watching the Attack on Titan series finale. I kinda like how huge chunks of it revolve around Armin. He’s someone I feel the show kinda abandoned since season 2, so seeing him be the main protagonist and not Eren was actually a pleasant surprise.
