Because of my wild imagination, I thought this cartoon would have been really dark!
At first it looked like a typical love story between two friends. As the story progressed at it's slow pace, The bad thoughts came to me. Will Basil commit suicide for not getting love from Rose? Is Rose's boyfriend homophobic? Will the boyfriend beat up Rose or kill Basil? What's going to happen!?
But in the end, Basil just cries and gets over it. Like any young adult dealing with relationship searching. Something I can totally relate to. Being an Asperger man who does his own thing.
As for the animation quality? It's definitely top notch. A bit too slow for my taste, But works really well. Slow animation is normally used for Animes with lots of visual details. But I supposed slow movements can work for simple characters too. Everything seen here is very great.
