This week's ShowmeCAST 115 arrives at your feed and in this week's episode we talk about everything we are following. We talk about the social criticism of The White Lotus that shows us the contrast between classes in a distressing and funny way at the same time and the problems of one piece red wanting to please only fans of the franchise. We also talked about the franchise's new open world game Sonic, our initial impressions of the marvel snap and more social criticism – without so much subtlety – in Kamen Rider Black Sun.🇧🇷 Follow in the summary of ShowmeCAST 115! 545ga
At the beginning of the episode we did an analysis on the series of HBO which is currently getting its second season, The White Lotus🇧🇷 The American comedy-drama created by Mike White is a series about guests of a chain of resorts called White Lotus, which will show in the contrast of differences between travelers and employees, a complexity of relationships with bizarreness between their differences and about the displacement of the reality in which privileged people inhabit.
The series has 6 episodes and follows some groups of families who, for 6 days, will stay at the resort. The White Lotus it has mystery and tension between the characters despite moments of comedy, with great performances and serves a plate full of social criticisms about white privilege, colonialism and bourgeois guilt making a satire with the liberal family that puts itself as the protagonist of all moments of the series .
Another series we talked about on ShowmeCAST 115 also does social criticism, though in its own way. Kamen Rider Black Sun. it's the reboot series Kamen Rider Black after more than 30 years of its launch. Shotaro Ishinomori's work has several dense layers of criticism of what happens in our society beyond the simple allegory of the struggle of good against evil shown in some tokusatsu🇧🇷 Because it is a work that aims to talk to an audience that followed the original series in 1987, Kamen Rider Black Sun. has more freedom to deal with heavy subjects focused on talking to a more adult audience.
The protagonist of the new Kamen Rider is the star Hidetoshi Nishijima, who became popular internationally for the success of the film drive my car🇧🇷 The series was produced in partnership between toei company and Prime Video Japan and has 10 episodes.
Continuing through Japanese lands, in this week's episode we talk about the one piece red, the new film in the franchise of the famous pirate who stretches. The film is the first release of one piece in Brazilian cinemas and tells the story of Uta, a rising star in the music world who is the daughter of Shanks and childhood friend of the protagonist Luffy. The film's story tells about how Uta wants to make the world a better place through their music with a twisted vision of how this can happen, thus creating a new era.
one piece red holds on to the good music clips of the main character – played by the singer Ado – however, he forgets to deliver a good story with the quality seen previously in several arcs of the work. The film turns out to be a great fan service for the fans of one piece with appearances of characters without function and little development of the main plot involving the character and the place where the film takes place. We talk in more detail on ShowmeCAST 115 about all that and more that let us down in this new adventure from Luffy and his friends.
In the universe of games, Dácio is running like never before in the universe of sonic frontiers🇧🇷 At ShowmeCAST 115 we discussed this new iteration of the franchise and how the freedom of an open world is good for the gameplay of a speed-focused character. Integrating traditional elements of the franchise, the game succeeds in being a good evolution of the 3D series of the most famous blue hedgehog of games with puzzles and huge bosses in a world that was made for speed in a gameplay that looks more like a Tony Hawk do Sonic.
To wrap up today's ShowmeCAST 115 episode, we talk about our first impressions of the new card game for mobile, the marvel snap🇧🇷 With letter from all the main characters of the comic book universe of Marvel we talked a little about the sure gameplay of marvel snap in betting at a faster pace adapted to the of mobile devices with mechanics that are simple to understand, however, they do not lose their complexity as the game progresses.
