Hell Mode: So much potential to fail successfully

This show's "cheap" in a very remarkable way! And yes, that's a compliment.

[From Hell Mode episode 1](https://i.redd.it/p3oyg5mchkcg1.gif)

I've been YEARNING for stuff like this. Super excited to see what the next episodes could bring us. So much potential to fail successfully like [KamiKatsu did](https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/136uppo/the_legendary_clip_kaminaki_sekai_no_kamisama/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

It got an anime?? I remember reading it quite a while ago

looks more like The Beginning After the End but at least its not takes itself seriously.

You mean as in ironic fun from a self aware adaptation? Sure.

The story that is being adapted however is nothing but level grinding and no narrative value.

I can't picture them squeezing too much juice from a rock.

Nah, it ain't like the gif above is related to the "narrative", either. Also, meta-jokes were hardly the only stuff that Kamikatsu pulled.

Provided there's no one against it, studios are more than free to imbue their own creativity into the work, to sometimes make wine from nothing. Pop team epic and Kamikatsu (edit: and arguably Bocchi the Rock) being good examples. I think that's a neat property of this medium.

I loved how Pop team epic snuck in parodies of Skyrim and Dora the Explorer.

Probably the one instance of anime referencing Skyrim.

I chose this as my hatewatch of the season, all according to the initial blurb. The jury is still out as to whether or not I may need to pick something different.
