I liked this ep and the plot is rushing quickly.


Axel passed out, but woke up 4 days layer according to the recap. The Biblical Lazarus died, but rose back 4 days later. Since Lazarus was a friend of Jesus, Axel could be an aide to Skinner as well

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazarus_of_Bethany

Also Axel made the Russian lesbian straight for him

He saved her from the Russians and they have less than a week before everyone starts dying of Skinner spice, so that's where it comes from.

I still ship Axel/Leland though, sudden onset dyke desperation is a trite trope.

makes me wonder if Axel was originally in prison for massacring the Chinese's kid school as an ex-American glowie? It was foreshadowed in EP 1 since the Russian lesbian accused him of being a murderer, Axel got out of it by lying that it was for prison breaks. She probably had the correct instincts though.

Given that the US military is corrupt (being controlled by Jew and Black person wtf based Watanabe) and has connections to assassins. They probably hired a death squad, later imprisoning and testing them with Hapna in order to cover their tracks. Their real motive for just killing Axel instsead of the entire Lazarus team is so that he doesn't spill dirt about their war crimes.

Seems any relationship bait didn't matter at all as we see the result.
Only Pakistan won.
Good to be a yurifag who never even bothered to watch this show, good radar it seems.

To be honest, if the final 2 episodes can keep this pace I'll give it a 8/10 overall.

The right winged retards always call something woke when they see girl x girl kissing, but that lesbian was killed off and her gf survived and was turned bi to kiss a guy, the resident retards should stop saying woke when in reality this is a complete antiwoke and antilesbian show in reality.

She kissed him out of joy that he was alive. Give that he's literally the cure for Hapna and the world is about to end without him this sort of makes sense.

Now you know why they added the lesbian backstory for her, thank the writer for it. It didn't have any sense to add it then and now getting such retarded result also has zero sense in story, so that's that.
Or maybe some authors really love the bury your gays trope in all sense they can.

Yeah yeah, she kissed him cause he is a guy and she is a woman who was in love with another woman and was converted now for the cock.

Same, why waste time on something you know you won't enjoy? Any sane person will know after 3 episodes if the show is into his liking or not. Dropping this Lazarus show early was a good move seeing the threads now.

There's basically no real reason for her to fall for him after the backstory showing her being into a girl now just right for the finale.

I suppose it all depends on the context, if she was a bisexual from start then the yuri slying meme is invalid, if she was lesbian only and now got converted for the cock for the male MC then it is valid.
Someone should ask the writer or director what they wanted to do with her from start.

Just give it up for any reasoning, the writer just wanted to convert her and that's why he specially added the sad lesbian gf getting killed episode backstory and now we have this as a result for her falling for the guy out of nowhere without any reason. There's nothing more here sadly.
Just homophobic writer doing his thing with the twist on yuri/lesbianity is just a phase outcome just made even quicker.

Obviosuly if she was stated to be a lesbian they wouldn't make her kiss the guy in last episode out of nowhere just beacuse he protected her reasoning.
So she is bi at best.
>>279694295
Eh if that was true then they could easily make other girl be a lesbian to try to find a gf in Pakistan and Chis be a straight as arrow for the male MC from start.

Wtf happened to the second agent who attacked Doug (not the guy who got into the car)? I swear Doug just lightly pushed him before getting hit by the car and then the animators just forgot he was there. Couldn't he have easily just shot Doug before or while he was on the ground shooting at the car?

This incompetent female spy stole the only rifle at Lazarus Base, but instead of shooting at the enemy, she fired 40 times and didn't hit a single shot. We saw an episode where she was captured and rescued, which had nothing to do with the story.
She also found an important clue to find Skinner in episode 3, forgot it, and remembered it at the end of episode 9.
She's great.

most of the "defense" I've seen is basically "w-why are you being so critical! just enjoy it! the action is good!!" and really, really tries to hinge on the action carrying things. Except the action isn't good. It's ass.
A lot of this shit could be completely forgiven if there was actual sakuga. But there isn't. None of the animation has any weight to it. It's also really, really obvious that the animators are animating the choreography with zero concern for the environment that it's taking place in and just adding backgrounds in post - which, while not necessarily... "bad" in terms of practice, just does not work when you have so much shit going on and can't match perspective so it just ends up looking real fucking flat and awkward.

It's strongly implied that the US military concealed their backgrounds of both Axel and the assassin. They use them for black ops shit.
>basically 9/11's a highway, yeets infinite grenades into the middle of traffic
Not the first time. Lazarus did a bunch of high profile crimes like shooting up a tanker filled with Russians along with a club with billionaires, but it was covered up by the government during a court hearing. Additionally, the US military did a 9/11 in an airport with Skinner but that event was concealed as well.

The main rule of the Lazarus universe is that the government is powerful enough to get away with committing high scale crimes in public.
>said phantom assassin proceeds to not shoot him, still, but instead fight... hand to hand
It's an action movie trope where the bad guy plays with his equal in order to learn about him. I love that trope, but it's not for everyone. It started in heroic bloodshed films like a better tommorow 2.
https://youtu.be/nNLLxRXJTa4?t=400
Cowboy Bebop had the same trope where Vicious threw the sword back to Spike as opposed to gunning him down at the final scene.
https://youtu.be/pHxRpwvDo7w?t=64

Yeah, it's not realistic but I'd be lying if I said that it wasn't fucking COOL I have the feeling that Axel will have that fight with the assassin at the end.
>chris shows up with a rifle, decides to wait until axel gets a spear to the gut before charging like a dumbass when she could've taken shots at range
Even when she was close all of her shots were inaccurate, she didn't want to hit them from what I was guessing.

We're going to learn more about Axel's background, I am guessing that he was involved in glowie shit and they were trying to kill him to cover it up.

The sakuga and choreography is great, mainly because the action is more grounded than your average shonen. You don't see people being punched into several different buildings nor does it use CG like Ninja Kamui. As well animated as those are, I feel that there's an oversaturation of the former and I say this as a person who looooves animating people being punched into a bajllion different buildings. I feel that Lazarus is a good middleground between regular action movies and unrealistic anime stuff. It reminds me of Kingsman: The Secret Service

Has good compositing and CG too
>>279705089
starts off reaaalllly slow and rough, but picks up the pace in the last few episodes. It's shorter than those shows so it is worth a watch.

I feel that it would have benefited greatly from localization, the dialogue felt really dry and lacks personality. The jokes didn't land well. I thought that the action scene in the club was great, but didn't really fit well unless if you hate billionaire rapists or something.

Axel was just a prison guinea pig
It's implied the "assassin" has had no contact with INSOC prior to this point. If he had, why would they need to send an entire squad for him to string up?
>but it was covered up by the government during a court hearing
There was news coverage of the helicopter in the river. Also the scale of a small high profile party being crashed, which ended in capture of a high profile "super hakker" and a tanker crashing into a decommissioned oil rig with a facility on it that "doesn't exist" are wildly different from some dude dropping a dozen grenades into moving traffic.
>The main rule of the Lazarus universe is that the government is powerful enough to get away with committing high scale crimes in public
...No? Where the literal fuck is this even coming from. What kind of dumb bullshit headcanon are you even making up?
>It's an action movie trope where the bad guy plays with his equal in order to learn about him
That wasn't even what was happening at all. There was no "I acknowledge you, now let's fight like men" scene. The guy was just going full retard, using grenades when he should have used a gun and not using anything at all when, again, he should've just used a fucking gun.
Further, this is a fucking assassin. You don't get that trope to actually work without developing a relationship between the two characters. That just didn't happen here.
>We're going to learn more about Axel's background, I am guessing that he was involved in glowie shit and they were trying to kill him to cover it up.
Did you just not pay attention to ANY of the exposition for setting up why the assassin is after him in the first place?
It's tying up loose ends on government testing. "Best case" is that he's got some pre-baked cure injected into his ass and this is all some dumb play on the "great reset" conspiracy and they want to hide it.

>The sakuga and choreography is great
No it fucking isn't. Let's take a short look at a fight scene from the most recent episode.
https://files.catbox.moe/2f2wvb.mp4
We get uhhhh. A bunch of flashes from things that shouldn't be flashing. Like Axel pushing the spear away... by hand? at 4 seconds in. Then at 7 seconds there's a flash from axel when nothing is actually happening. At 8 seconds the pole the assassin has just phases through axel. At 9 seconds we have another flash in the middle of the air. Again, for literally nothing(waow). Somewhere at 10 seconds assassin just phase warps his spear from one side to the other in a flash with no tweens - whatever. Then we just get random breakdancing and at 12s axel somehow springs the exact opposite direction of his momentum and then grabs onto a girder that DID NOT FUCKING EXIST PRIOR TO THIS MOMENT(and you can even check this! they had a panned out shot of the full fucking boat just seconds prior!) where not only does he grab onto it with his arm that was completely limp as he got onto the boat, the girder, being suspended by two wires just... Doesn't react at all to some probably 160-180lb dude swinging all the fuck around on it? This is what I meant by the animation having no weight - because it has no fucking weight. The rest is whatever who fucking cares.
Very small parts of the animation in the series could be considered decent. 98% of it is probably below the quality of this scene and this scene is fucking trash.
This shit is absolute ass.

The Jew glowie (Schneider) gave the recommendation to the black glowie who was skeptical initially. Schneider tested him to convince the black glowie, that's the scene where the troops get killed by the Chinese assassin.
>There was news coverage of the helicopter in the river.

Yeah but Lazarus wasn't implicated in those, their government covered up their involvement.
>...No?
It was literally spelled out in EP 9 lol. The black and Jew glowie tried to use Leland to implicate Lazarus since he was a double agent, but he didn't.
>That wasn't even what was happening at all. There was no "I acknowledge you, now let's fight like men" scene.
Like I said, it's an action movie trope from Hong Kong films. It's common for men in those films to draw out fights and to do standoffs without dialogue. It's a stylistic way of creating anticipation. Given the fact that the assassin is Chinese, it's homage to those films in the same way Cowboy Bebop was.

I know a lot of gun nerds don't like the stylistic choices today, but I am glad that this show is preserving it. A lot of realistic media nowadays goes for the long take john wick style where they pop headshots of goons effortlessly.
>Did you just not pay attention to ANY of the exposition for setting up why the assassin is after him in the first place? It's tying up loose ends on government testing.
If they wanted to do that, then they would kill the rest of the Lazarus team for knowing about it. There's a good reason why they're going exclusively after Axel..

The flashes are used to indicate blade clashes, he grabbed a metal hook that he later tossed out of the boat to punch him afterwards. I didn't find it unusual since Jackie Chan fights with props as well.

When the fuck did this happen? Chris feeling attracted to Axel, I mean. Nevermind that, with one episode left and not a iota closer to Skinner unless they're handed a last minute DEM, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that Lazarus is the biggest disappointment I've ever had watching an anime show. Sure, there's even shittier stuff out there, but none with this level of expectations and with such a pedigree from the creators involved. Just fell flat on all levels, m8.


>>279679834
She was a female Russian spy, so of course she's bisexual. It may even be the case that she's only been with women before until she met Axel, so she's pretty much a "virgin" despite being on her mid twenties and having had sexual partners and experience before. Wouldn't be the first time that happened in fiction, and Watanabe loves sucking up this walmart Spike.

I know what they're supposed to be for. I'm just commenting at how HORRIBLY timed and badly placed they are. Like image related, I'm guessing is "intended" to be a flash for a backswing of the hook against the spear? But just looks like it's happening as he's putting his palm against the wood of the spear and pushing it away.
And during the pan out you have flashes happening before anyone even does anything at all, as if the flashes are timed to keyframes that just don't actually exist(which is probably more likely than it sounds, since a lot of the animation between characters seem awkwardly staggered as if one figure is a few frames behind the other).
>What's your history with action movies? Are you a Michael Mann fan?
I honestly can't say I've bothered watching many movies over the last few years at all. Prior to that though I usually didn't bother with most "high octane hollywood" style action movies. I generally liked Tarantino type stuff or HK style kung fu movies.
While I recognize Michael Mann and some of the movies he's worked on I don't think I've seen or at least, haven't intentionally seen anything from them.

I don't understand why he jumped in front of the car either. At least it'd make sense if he jumped out of the way and the driver swerved to hit him instead, but nope

In your dreams, prick lovers. I can imagine the seethe y'all will be producing next week when it reveals that it was just a non-romantic kiss.

the fights are so shit in this. The animators have no idea what gravity is and the motions have no weight or momentum to them and and there's so many hitty cgi objects that they're moving on that make the characters feel disconnected to the world. The choreography is shit too. I'd be willing to turn my brain off if the slop was well made at least but the wire fu/parkour fetishist fight scenes are somehow worse than the dumb plot or lack thereof.
