Tesla Note

It has its moments, but it was bad. There's no much to argue. The animation was rough, the story lacked of momentum, the characters were plain. I entered this series with a lot of expectation and that was it.

Watching the final episode of this anime, I felt the lackluster of the man behind Una Casita. I was hoping that behind all the schemes that he made, there was a reason why he was so eager to rule the world. What I see from this Boss of Una Casita ia a mixed of the ideology of Aizen and Madara.

Botan, Kuruma, and Mickey finally confront their former colleagues, who have been secretly operating as moles for Una Casita. Amidst the clash, Botan finds a wave of relief upon discovering that the mastermind behind Una Casita is not her late father.

The Japan Safety and Promotion Company and the CIA are now working side by side after discovering traitors within their own ranks who were secretly operating on behalf of Una Casita.

I’m honestly speechless! Just when I thought last episode's cliffhanger was wild, this one completely raised the stakes with twist after twist. I still can't believe one of Botan’s own teammates is actually a traitor.

With a new Tesla shard location confirmed, Botan and her team rush to secure it before it's too late. The stakes are higher than ever, as this particular shard holds the terrifying power to merge living animals into deadly chimeras.

Devastated by the events of her last mission, Botan was consumed by guilt over the realization that she might have taken a life just to secure the shard. Unable to shake the weight of her actions, she made the difficult decision to quit the team. Worried about her fragile mental state and emotional well-being, management sent her back home to recover. It was there that Botan discovered the depth of her deceased mother’s love for her, a profound revelation that ultimately restored her resolve.

The conflict escalates as the rival group gains control of the Tesla shards. Aboard the ship, Botan and the CIA struggle to fend off a barrage of robots and compromised CIA agents.

With Botan's friend critically wounded on their last mission, his life hangs in the balance. To make matters worse, a new group enters the fray, hunting down the Tesla Shards possessed by Botan's squad and the CIA. In the midst of this chaos, a new shard surfaces, showcasing entirely new and dangerous capabilities.

The race for the Tesla Shard escalates as Botan is held hostage by Bose, who demands Theone in return. Though Botan’s team finally syncs up to score a massive win and secure a Shard, the tables turn instantly. A mysterious new character appears, leaving Kuruma severely injured or worse.

Well, to my surprise, the mysterious characters that appear in episode 2 turn out to be the good guys, with the same purpose as the team of Botan, but with a twist, they are CIA agents from America.

I don't think this episode is necessary for the plot, but Botan is still a girl who wants to be normal, who wants to graduate from school life, just like everyone else. We also see the rift between Kuruma and Ryuunosuke because, I guess, not everyone on the same team is so perfect.

The story so far is getting interesting, we get to see how crucial the mission of Botan is, and this mission is no joke, because if it goes sideways, a lot of people might get killed. We get to see new characters pop up, hoping that they will aid in this mission or they will bring chaos into the world.

This time, I couldn't enjoy it a bit at the beginning of the episode because the storytelling was so messy. Although I was hoping for a slight improvement in the storytelling in the final episode, it turned out that the execution was not optimal. The episode also ended with a somewhat cringe-worthy humor because the 3D animation couldn't maximize the humorous storytelling.

The animation of this episode is so mid that merging 2D animation and 3D animation is a bad idea; they should have just gone with 3D animation if they wanted a unique style in their animation. Overall, the story so far is interesting, a girl trained in the ninja ways to protect the modern world.

The story in this episode has many moral messages that I think are good reminders for the viewers. Furthermore, for the first time, the storytelling is quite neat and there are many tense moments presented. Although there are still some scenes in 3D that are executed so strangely that the scenes feel cringe. I think the problem lies in the timing.

The story in episode 11 is quite good, telling the story of the search and pursuit of Una Casita by Japan Safety and the CIA. This time, the thing I want to review is the humor scenes. Not only this episode, but since the previous few episodes, the humor presented has always tended to be awkward. Actually, the humor is funny, it's just that the way the creators depicted the scenes for the humor seemed forced with 3D animation. The result is cringe.

This time the storytelling execution is much better compared to the previous few episodes. The storytelling style can make me focus on following the story, to the point that I forget about the still poor animation quality. Something I didn't expect was a plot twist similar to episode 9 happened again in this episode, but this time there was really no hint shown beforehand.

The storytelling is as poor as ever, with the animation quality even worse during the scene where Bigfoot shoots tentacles. The plot itself is quite engaging and the pace is quite steady. There's a plot twist revealed at the end of this episode, which was predictable due to hints from previous episodes.

I think episode 8 acts like a filler episode, and the storytelling is much better than the previous episodes. Finally, there's some character development for Botan. We get to learn the secret behind Botan's birth. There's no action at all in this episode, which is actually quite refreshing.
