Twinkle Nora Rock Me!

[Spoiler Warning] Twinkle Nora Rock Me! is an OVA best watched with friends who like to watch trainwrecks unfold. Essentially, a genderbent Boba Fett named Nora goes to Tattooine to pick up a bounty on a space criminal worth several thousand times this OVA's animation budget. She picks up a scrappy midget in a town of huts after a bar fight with a drunken giant, starts a rock band with the scrappy in a cave, and then uses her impractical flying wheeled machine to lazily drift across the screen until she reaches the house of the illegal space wizard. She uses unexplained andwildly improbable powers such as telekinesis, time travel, and impromptu heart attacks iin order to vanquish this wizard, and then stars as the lead vocalist in the newly expanded cave's rock band. It takes all of this seriously. Poe's Law is not in effect, it's just that bad. The first four minutes of this OVA are presented to you in the format of a lovely slideshow to introduce the characters, but don't actually introduce anything and aren't intended to be a slideshow. You may attempt to fiddle with your video player in a vain attempt to fix the lag and dropped frames, but soon you realize that the frames were never even there to begin with. A man slides across the room and jitters to a halt at a glorious pace of two frames per second. This isn't animated on thirds, or even fourths - it's animated on twelves. At 4:02 it finally begins animating properly, only to have characters repeatedly go off-model. Important character details appear and vanish in the blink of an eye, and characters make improbable movements repeatedly. The sound design is nothing short of pathetic. The music, unfitting to any sequence applied to it. Sound effects make no sense and don't accompany their sources. Voices don't match the mouth flaps over half the time, and the voice actors give an overwhelmingly awful performance in their roles. There is no character to be had other than generic archetypes that can be summarized as flat. There's nothing here. Nothing. Nora's powers are never explained, and she seems to conjure up more at will. The scrappy midget that tags along after the bar fight is worthless and accomplishes nothing of value, not growing as a person and not doing anything by himself. OVERALL 1/10 HIGHLY ENJOYABLE WITH FRIENDS, OR IF YOU LIKE MAKING FUN OF THINGS AS A LONELY PERSON.

Twinkle Nora Rock Me! Wasn't terrible, but it's nothing special. Still kept me watching though. For the time it was made, the art isn't that bad. At the first a lot of things seemed lazy and choppy, but the main character Nora was drawn well. While I didn't find there was too much dialogue, the music really stood out for the background scenes. Also going along with the music, expect there to be some dancing and musical scenes in this anime. If you have half an hour of free time and want to see something your friends probably haven't seen- then go watch Twinkle Nora Rock Me!

Yesterday I watched what is undoubtedly the greatest animation ever made. The fluidity of movement in Twinkle Nora Rock Me is disrupted by the intentional two frame per second staccato that the director uses to throw the viewer off-balance. This may be off putting to the more casual viewer, but connoisseurs will be quick to notice that the effect fits perfectly with the themes of the film. The seemingly random nature of the plot perfectly mirrors the shaky jump cuts that have come to define the film. Nora is ultimately a meditation on the chaos of the universe and the inevitability of humanity’s surrender to it.Nora’s powers, back story, profession, and even clothing change from scene to scene for no reason because Nora cannot be contained. She is immutable change, and as such remains in constant flux. There can be no definitive plot about Nora because Nora is the ultimate level of abstraction. Any sequence of events that would seem logical to the human mind cannot coexist with Nora, because Nora represents the distortion of those very sequences. What isn’t apparent, even after multiple viewings, is why such a primal and chaotic force is regarded as the protagonist. In any other film we would likely follow mere mortals trying to resist Nora’s power, vainly attempting to escape the inevitable madness she will bring upon their minds. So why in this film is Nora the protagonist? It is because Nora isn’t meant to be human. While almost every story we create centers on the human experience, Nora is a film of Cosmic proportions. Nora isn’t a protagonist that represents the struggles of humanity, she is a more universal protagonist. Chaos is the ultimate destroyer in this universe, but it is also the ultimate creator. Much of the material that comes within the gravitational field of a black hole is not consumed but shredded down to its barest elements and flung to the far reaches of space to form new and wonderful things. In the same way Nora is a protagonist that obliterates the human mind, leading to near total ego death, aligning us once and for all with our truest selves. Thus, while the film is incomprehensible to most, it is this very incomprehensible nature that makes it worthy of very film award and our eternal praise.

The show is so bad that it is good, but it is like watching a PowerPoint as at some parts it goes from smooth footage to choppy which ruins the atmosphere and the story as you really wouldn't understand what the characters would be doing but it makes it funnier in a way, which adds to the enjoyment as you laugh at it. the story is basic and the characters are somewhat funny. The dance scene is hilarious and the voice acting is just the best, it is rather bland in some parts and a bit cliche but it adds to the comedic value. would notmind watching this show again.
