It's been a long time since I got so invested in an anime. The concept seems very fresh but the execution of the concept seems a step ahead. It's got that mystery element about mechanics of power that slowly unravels with each passing episode, the characters are all likeable like Zanka Riyo Enjin and a story that feels emotional and personal for Rudo the main character. It creates a world where there is lot to explore, and I think the characters bonds well with each other and they will all have their moment to shine like in Naruto or Demon slayer. Finished all 8 episodes in one go and I can say it's moving with descent pace since episode 2 with not having a single boring episode till now. I have very high hopes from the rest of the season, I hope it delivers more than that and grabs the viewership it deserves.

I am someone who grew up watching Fantastic 4 cartoon and it used to be my favourite part of the day. Then came the live action movie and it's sequel with silver surfer. Those two movies I felt were always underrated because I really enjoyed them as a kid and even now I like to watch, kind of have a nostalgic feeling. I don't even want to mention the 2015 reboot which gave me nightmares.

Now coming to this one, I must say the marketing team did a good job creating the hype around it but the movie doesn't live upto the expectations. The family we went to see, seems kind of missing because of lack of character depth. Reed looked like less of leader and his elasticity is not shown to a satisfactory extent, the overall plot of the story seemed to be undercooked. Galactus as a villain has always been hard to play with on screen because of his cosmic level powers. They did an awesome job with visuals and CGI. The acting is good for almost all the actors. Music is nice. Just not the fantastic 4 I went to relive my childhood for.

The concept was absurd and illogical from a biology perspective but the execution was done with such great conviction that you dive into it after a short while. Although, the story is full of plot holes but the acting and direction is so good that you just want to enjoy the movie ignoring all negative points. But then comes those last 15 minutes and you start to wonder why the movie is still playing and unnecessary gory scenes play off that doesn't add up to anything. The message was good and the writer could have signed off while he still had it but for some reason they kept going until they killed it.
