Letty dream house and how it was a bit too perfect for him. Dragon house hunting episode 3 impression
Finding a perfect house is not an easy thing to do let alone finding it for a coward and small red dragon. Even in the real world, I don’t think that a house that completely suffice for living and gives complete comfort is possible and so is in the anime world. As I watched the third episode of the Dragon goes house Hunting, I realized more how blunt and over repeated the humor is. Yeah I admit that some scene had good heartwarming moment. Yet, another scene like when Letty got very embarrassed after lady in the painting read his poem was not…. funny. It feels so forced, unnatural, and for an anime with a focus on comedy that was a bit lackluster honestly.
At first it was cute; the up tenth time it was annoying |
Letty, like usual was still your
coward and extremely passive dragon and Dearia the bishonen elf worked as Letty
guide on finding his dream house. After the failure from the last episode on
the house searching, Dearia asked letty if they can stop by the crone lair.
Letty instantly thought that it was another scary place and cowered in fear and
hide on nearest bushes. I think letty cowardice can make viewers hate him because
it was kept getting shown on screen as if he had no flame of courage left
inside his body and because it was not funny, it can get annoying at times. I
don’t know how the creator can think that using coward dragon as a main
character can automatically induce laughter. It doesn’t work that easily though
because for a good comedy to work, you need to create smart word/jokes or maybe
you can add a bit of exaggeration in his reaction like .. for example,
instantly turned his body and tip toing away from Dearia silently just after he
told letty about where they will go.
Dearia is that kind of friend that shoot your dream off the moment you had them xD |
Dearia told letty that he need to
return the bed that he lent before from them (the crone). And he explained that
the bed was kept inside a Doraemon’s like pocket which can save and store any
item (well last week they parodied Ju-on now Doraemon). The Crone people
themselves was like the three fate lady that appeared on Disney’s Hercules
(although they were more like the old granny who gave Snow White a poisonous
apple, who all have an eye patch on them). Some part of the joke about how
letty afraid to dwarves since they made equipment from dragon’s body part was
also shown again *yawn. The anime still replicating the same formula like the
first episode that Letty was afraid to the dwarves (well in letty’s case, even
a rat will appear like a ghost since he was an extreme coward).
B- for Drama, E for comedy xDxDxD |
With Letty still could not find
the perfect house, Dearia made an offer to build his home from scratches. After
summoning the gnomes and the Ogres, They started to build his dream house. It
was a good perfect cottage from letty’s dream though he still had to pay for
the home materials. Dearia said that he should not worry about the payment
because he already think about the payment. He purposely let the heroes (who
appear on the first episode) to come adventuring on letty’s house. Dearia plan
was allowing the heroes venturing into the house while he asked a help from a
werewolf, a minotaur, and a lizardman to work as the home guardian. While the
heroes went inside the house, the guardian will attack them and steal any
possession/valuables that they had. It worked so well but it just goes
extremely too well that every time the heroes got robbed, the rumor of a mighty
dragon guarding a house was spreading across the land. Off course this rumor
only attracted more and more low level monsters taking shelter in Letty’s
house.
Oh I just can't wait to be kiinggg ///-///not |
Letty who found out that he
suddenly turned into a mighty king dragon who ruled over a famous adventurer
spot felt the responsibility stressed him up. Without too many word, he decided
to leave the house that he dreamed off until the elf catch up with him. There
is still a sweet moment when Dearia told Letty that even if it took hundred
years to find his house, he will continue to accompany him. It was truly heartwarming
although…it was supposed to be a funny anime not emotional lol. The reason why it took me too long for this
episode review was because I just could not find anything peculiar about this
episode haha. This episode was a disappointment for me..Same formula, same
dragon anxiety, overused comedic pattern. Maybe a four out of ten is
suffice..too bad Letty.
