Hidden God #11 — The Power of Gun Haver
March 18th, 2010
Uhhhhhh.. what?
Impressions:
That was a tad abrupt. I’m glad that Sakaki powered up to the level of Gun Haver and proceeded to kill at least two whole nameless people and shoot a little girl in the leg before Kaori pulled him off the cliff into a river, which obviously killed them both. Well, she probably couldn’t swim from the assumed gunshot wound, but someone falling off a cliff into water is not exactly the surest way to kill them. This is after the culmination of his grand plan too. "Break into dam, push button." You would expect that if pushing a single button would wipe out a chunk of the city, they would have… I don’t know… installed some security perhaps? The bored tech was more than a match for Sakaki prior to his transformation into Gun Haver. Or maybe just something other than a giant red tow destroying button. And that’s that. Story’s over. QED. Everybody can go home. Oh wait, apparently there’s some cosplay nonsense with Nemuru next week.
Yeah, really. That’s about it. Sure, Stupidhead gave some terrible whiny speech about how it was all his fault for being ‘special’ (as in, "Rides the short bus"), thus making his contribution to the story the surprise revelation that he is, in fact, ignorant. I don’t know about you, but I never saw it coming. It boggles my mind that his only purpose was to state that he had no idea what was going on. The main story literally ended with Stupidhead giving a long voice over and then gaining the courage to call Nemuru more familiarly. Because that’s what the big dangling thread at the end was… Nemuru and Stupidhead’s friendship.
LE SIGH…

This clearly has potential.
