TRESE – WORTH A WATCH? (Spoiler Free)
from,netflix is an adaptation of a series,hailing from the philippines that,i was very excited to get into,for several reasons one the cultural,appeal of something new thats gonna be,coming from an angle im not used to,from a consumer in the u.s,was immediately interesting and on top,of that its combining my loves of,mystery crime and thrillers,with the supernatural beautiful,i wasnt sure if i was gonna do a full,video review though it takes quite a bit,for me to want to review a show i watch,here on the channel because its not,typically,my wheelhouse but i have a lot to say,good,and bad i want to do a full well-rounded,review,so lets go ahead and jump on in we are,following a supernatural detective named,thresher and her two assistants that are,twins,by assistance is that i dont think,thats the right word but her two,helpers,good friends as they steep themselves in,an episode to episode villain of the,week type formula,that then in standard this kind of show,momentum builds up to something larger,at the end and i wont get into more,because of spoilers but i did not mind,this formula,at all i actually think it was very,appropriate for a first season,of a character like this my problems,though with the structure of the show,actually come in with pretty much just,the first and last,episode the first episode of tracer just,crams so much into its run time that you,are unable,to take a breath and it feels like the,characters arent able to,either it is just scene scenes scene,scenes storyline storyline storyline,and i got the feeling the writers were,just trying to take,a lot from various bits of the source,material,and get it out of the way which resulted,in the first episode being my least,favorite and the last episodes actually,my second least favorite for a very,different,reason i wont get into spoilers again,but while the first episode is just,jumping along and not allowing me to,feel immersed in the world the last one,feels like its just,entirely flashback dependent and our,main protagonist spends just a,ridiculous amount of time,pinned down and listening to exposition,and thats kind of actually something,thats weaker for the show,as a whole not nearly as bad as it did,in the last episode but pretty,consistently throughout we are getting,large exposition dumps that,do not feel natural to me and the pacing,while it does get significantly better,never becomes as slow as i would like it,in the first episode for example theres,genuinely a scene where tracer is,doing an inscription on the ground and,shes saying a spell but then theres an,odd edit to where shes still saying the,spell in real time but the inscriptions,already done,because it feels like we didnt have,time to even get through doing the,inscription and i would have kind of,just,liked that i liked slower beat moments,and i wanted this show to do that,more it wasnt crippling but it just,didnt bother me consistently throughout,though again it does get much better,after episode one those are my two,biggest problems with the show though,outside of that i had a really good,time and especially if you can push past,the first episode,there is so much here to enjoy,again from this cultural angle theres,all these different creatures and,monsters that i had no familiarity with,and i found myself googling in between,episodes to see what theyre coming from,what they changed for the show it was,really,interesting there are some just not like,supernatural but,cultural things from the philippines,that are pretty prevalent as well here,that,i cant really commentate on politically,because its not my place but,okay that for okay oh all right,unfortunately by the end i was caring,about the cast of characters despite not,having as much time as id like to sit,with them,they were just written well enough that,the twins and threse,and many of the b characters around them,i was emotionally invested in the,animation as well well it does dip at,times is,certainly doing the storyline service,and it does have high,highs i really found myself enjoying,some of the more,action-intensive sequences as well as,just some,frames of gore and beauty of the,supernatural,that really surprised me and went above,what my bar was at because,generally for netflix animation its not,super high though they have,done really great work before its not,the best animation netflix has ever done,but its a pretty damn good showcasing,the voice acting isnt phenomenal,especially after coming from a show like,invincible where i feel like the entire,voice cast just gave like a 10 out of 10,performance here we range from,solid to average no one is absolutely,blowing my socks off but no ones,completely ruining it for me either,though i had a larger issue with some of,the really clunky dialogue,i actually wrote down in my notes here,things like as the prophecies foretold,i i dont i dont need that cliche,please hello here is my name despite you,already knowing me im going to,introduce myself that happened several,times,there is a storm coming a lot of those,kind of things,cant let a man do a womans job besides,we cant let you boys have all the fun,it just that kind of dialogue fell out,of place for what otherwise felt like a,very adult,gritty show but im beginning to feel,like im nitpicking here and like i also,bothered me to see so much talking,during action sequences but you know,what that stuff is pretty small and it,detracts from my overall positive,opinion of this experience its,fun its engaging its scary intense,this show did deliver,what it wanted to to its fans and i do,recommend checking out threse,pushing through the first episode and,letting yourself enjoy,what happens the rest of the way and,while i didnt love how the last episode,was handled im definitely curious,enough to come back for a season two,i personally would have added like three,episodes if i had like complete,omnipotent control over how this,season of television should have been,told and mostly it would have been to,just sit,in this world and experience the,characters a bit more just a,slow down and thats not a bad complaint,to have because if im wanting you to,slow down and im not just wanting to,get it out of the way,that means the show is accomplishing a,good thing here all right,all right all right ive avoided the,comparison until now but i gotta get,into it the number one people im going,to recommend this to,are dresden files fans because duh,its extremely similar to dresden,instincts,except instead of having dresden you,have trese who is,like him in some ways though much less,funny,instead the comedic relief is left up to,the twins and,a lot of other the cast of characters as,well but the core center of this story,is,not nearly as funny as dresden but that,actually serves i think the overall tone,theyre going for,quite well its darker its a bit,grittier and it,needs to have time to bloom and really,grow,i feel like this season while it was,rough planted a,lot of seeds that have a ton of,potential for the future,and just like the first couple dresden,books if you had stopped it there it,wouldnt be remembered as something that,was truly great,but because it was allowed to really,have that creative blossoming,im hoping the show does as well and im,sure the source material would back up,what im saying a lot of things start,good,get great and i get the vibe tresses,there as well or maybe the source,materials start even stronger ill find,out because i do plan on reading it this,made me curious enough to definitely,want to do that and if youre just,curious about experiencing fantasy,inspired from another culture i cant,stress enough,this show is going to satisfy that,especially if you arent someone whos,really looking for something slow like i,typically go for,and youre willing to just kind of go,along for a ride and you like some,really brutal action,youre going to like tressay quite a bit,for me though im sitting at a very,solid 6.5 out of 10,with the asterisks i think it can get

Pinoy Historian Reacts to Trese | Official Trailer Review | Netflix Anime ????
apparently the train broke down over the,quality of the bridge,service crew found it like this lots of,blood,no bodies and a pile of missing persons,reports,[Music],its me kirby iralio your friendly pinot,historian,and if you are new to my channel in this,channel i make videos,about our peoples history our peoples,culture and everything in between,so dont forget to like share this video,comment down below and please,subscribe and for todays video as many,of you requested ill be doing a,reaction to the new official trailer of,netflix animated series,3 which of course is based on the,filipino graphic novel series created by,budget,but before we begin i actually have a,confession so,ive actually seen ive seen the trailer,both in english and in tagalog the day,came out so,i guess this would be more you know less,of a reaction but more,of a review from from my perspective as,a,filipino historian as a filipino under,the aspera and as a tagalog and,kapampangan culture bearer,and just like in the past ill be,sharing what made me glad what made me,mad what made me sad and what i love,about this trailer did i even love it so,without further ado,lets begin glad so first what made me,glad,first i am glad to see some familiar,places in metro manila,like the guadalupe bridge in makati and,even the way they depicted the mrt,is actually pretty good and i also saw,jollibee,in a little billboard and im really,glad that a mainstream media giant like,netflix is investing in us theyre,investing money in,sharing our peoples stories and,mythologies and the fact that they are,also working closely with the filipino,creators to make sure it stays true,to its source material is even better a,lot of times when media giants,adapts stories from other cultures you,know they tend to dilute or even,misappropriate the culture but so far,i dont see that here i mean of course i,have my own opinions about our own,peoples deeper mythologies that we,dont usually see,in the mainstream media not even in the,philippines mythologies that many of us,are not familiar with unless you grew up,among culture bearers,but from what ive seen so far im,actually glad with the way theyre,depicted in this animated series,you know its really nice to see the,stories we grew up with back in the,motherland,its nice to see them be put in the,spotlight not just locally,but internationally because sadly many,of our people,are not familiar with our own,mythologies,not even in the philippines a lot of,filipinos are more familiar with,western mythologies and even western pop,culture,or western comic books like the marvel,universe or dc than our own,and known to many of us filipinos have a,long history of our own comic books,you know from jose rizals own pagong at,machine,back in the 1890s to the ua white,magazine in the 1920s,to dharna and the other superheroes,created by the amazing,mars ravalo in the 1940s and 1950s,actually fun fact the roots of dharna,dates all the way back to the 1930s,so yes our own darna is actually,way older than wonder woman because a,lot of us a lot of people think,that dinah was a copycat of wonder woman,but the truth is,dinah was first created as varga in the,1930s,years before wonder woman was created in,the 1940s,so yes i am glad that the world is,finally,now catching up to our own rich comic,book universe,and indigenous mythologies so speaking,of mythologies,heres a short short breakdown of the,ones theyve included in this trailer,again this is from my perspective as,both a tagalog,and a kapampangan culture bearer so if,youre from other cultures in the,philippines if youre from the visayas,the ilocos region mindanao or any part,of the philippines,share your own perspectives of your own,cultures in the comments below,so without further ado in no particular,order,first is the nuno as mentioned in my,other videos the nunu zapunso were not,the little mischievous dwarves or,goblins,that we are familiar with today,according to the kabampala mythology the,original nunu were the spirits of our,ancestors,the ancestral spirits that our elders,and their own ancestors,once worshipped and respected they were,never feared the way we fear the modern,day nunus,that fear of the nuno and their you know,mischievous appearance,only emerge as a result of colonialism,and the vilifying of our indigenous,spiritual beliefs,and if you havent noticed it yet the,word nuno is actually closely related to,the word,ninuno which means ancestor in tagalog,so if you want to learn more about the,nuno check out the links up here or down,down below for my videos my other videos,that talks about the mythologies around,the nuno saponzo or new or,check out the links of here down below,but first lets move on to,tabitha back before colonialism,tabitabipo,in tagalog or pasintabi in kapampangan,is actually respectfully asking for the,blessing and the permission,from the ancestral spirit and the other,beings around us,tabi in the oldest known surviving,kapampangan dictionary,is actually defined as respectfully,seeking permission and it has a lot to,do with deference and veneration so as,opposed to what many assume today,tabitabipo doesnt simply mean excuse me,because many think it came from the word,tabe or to move aside in tagalog,tabitabipo is not about,asking the enchanted beings to move,aside while we walk by,or pee outdoors but actually it is,respectfully,seeking their permission and their,blessing in fact,in the indigenous kapampangan,architecture we have a lot of passing,tabi to the spirits and the elements,these are rules about the flow and,maintaining harmony,so you cannot just build the house,however you want it,you have to follow certain rules and,seek the permission and the blessing,from the spirits and the elements,next is the chanak in tagalog mythology,and also in the mainstream pop culture,in the philippines,chanaks are the vampire like ghosts or,monsters of the babies or toddlers,usually the unborn child or a child who,was a victim of,suffering and violence and gruesome,death,but this concept of chanak is actually,related to other mythologies like from,the kapampangas and all the way to,indonesia,so in bahasa melayu or bahasa indonesia,they actually have,ponchanaf ponchanax are believed to be,the spirits of,women who died while pregnant as opposed,to the unborn child in tagalog mythology,in melayu it is the spirits of the,mothers,who were killed while they were pregnant,and this is actually very similar to the,kapampangan patchana,just like the melayu,mythology are the vengeful ghosts of,women,who died at childbirth but sadly,younger kapabangas today are more,familiar with the tagalog,chanak some people actually think that,the pachana in kapampangan is exactly,the same as the unborn ghost,called china in tagalog so in both the,melaye mythology and the kapampala,mythology,the ponchanagh and the pachana are the,vengeful ghosts of the mothers who died,at childbirth,actually in the pampanga mythology we,also have something called the anchana,which is actually not the same as the,chanak or the pachana,theyre different an-chanaks were,believed to be one of the oldest,race of beings here on earth they grow,up to 12 inches in height but they look,exactly like us humans only smaller,and they were believed to have an,ancient but,advanced civilization they were able to,communicate with the trees,the animals the spirits around us and,even that,of the wind and the water in other words,they were really small beings who look,like humans,but extremely powerful some are,benevolent,while others are evil so for our modern,day pop culture reference,they were somewhat similar to the,children of the forest in the game of,thrones,and now that i think about it they,actually have a lot of similarities with,our modern day filipino concept,of the duende you know some were,benevolent some were benevolent,while some were malevolent or evil,next up is the babylon mandirigma im,glad that the protagonist isabella,but by lands have been vilif

Trese Netflix Anime Series Review
okay its been a long day but i finally,finished the brand new netflix anime,series and that,is trey say which is based on a comic,book series,i was very interested in this so i had,to binge through it late this evening,finally got through it no spoilers in,this review i need you guys in the,comments down below,what do you think and would you,recommend the comics for me to read,okay so set in a place where mythical,creatures of filipino folklore,live in hiding amongst humans alexandra,tracee finds herself going head to head,with a criminal underworld comprised,of malevolent supernatural beings so,when the series started out,i wasnt necessarily getting full-on,anime,vibes and i will admit the first episode,it did take a second to kind of catch on,to everything going on because it was,moving a little quick for me dont worry,were getting into good stuff here in,just a second,um but it was just a very different,feeling show it felt more like those,saturday morning cartoons that youd,grow up with and,were solving a mystery there are some,action very heavy action scenes,uh it is this grand scale adventure,exploring the lore of these characters,and what tracees role here is we get,a little bit of an expositional scene at,the beginning just kind of describing,her and um how shes the one the chosen,one,uh set to fight these beings and really,the only one that can do it on,the level that is needed so um yes its,feeding us information but,its also integral information to get us,on board with this character,specifically,and really the world once the first,episode ends,even though i still kind of i need to,get on board with the pacing a bit more,i was very intrigued then we get into,episodes two,and three and i was wondering why is,this uh tvma yeah a little bit of blood,in the first episode but nothing too,crazy and is kind of your standard,typical solving a mystery type show,and then we get into some episodes after,that im like oh oh thats the reason so,if youre planning on watching this with,younger kids i dont know if thats the,best idea,but then i really got into kind of what,this show was going for,and it made for a very fun time,right none of the characters stand out,as maybe the most fleshed out characters,of the year,but i really like what they were going,for here,and the most important thing and i hit,on it just a few seconds ago is,the lore and how they really dive deep,into that and these creatures that she,is fighting and her mentality,and kind of her role in this entire,thing shes establishing relationships,and,she is i mean obviously you know its,the name of the show shes put at the,forefront shes the focus,but shes focused on in a way that feels,natural,and its not um its not,jumbled its not a mess of a show every,episode there is a clear goal and a,clear angle,and its only six episodes and each,episode is really not very long i think,another,i guess a criticism could be that i,needed a bit,more from certain things so i think it,could have been even longer,but thats also a compliment in a way,saying i was invested enough and,entertained enough,to say that i would want more when it,comes to the animation style,again not what you think of when you,think anime,but i didnt mind it and i thought it,was,fun enough and and solid enough visually,to get us through some of those more,lackluster moments so at the end of the,day when were talking about,entertaining anime series on netflix,i had a good time with this because,theres so much,there that we can dive into in the,future and so much there with this,character,i mean she really is shes just a b a,character,witchcraft magic all of that crazy,demonic,stuff that um you know you really get,into when theyre providing us an,interesting mystery and theyre,definitely doing that with this show so,i had an easy watch it was a quick watch,six episodes not too bad,at all and tracee is definitely,worth a watch in my opinion on netflix,so,um as for my score before i give you,guys that thanks so much for watching,this brief review its been a busy,its been a really busy week but you,know what were still trudging and we,have,more reviews to come and this actually,provided uh some of the best,entertainment ive had,all day so im glad i watched it im,going to 75 for this netflix anime show,uh really good time i would love to know,what you guys think and again,dont know too much about the comic book,series that this is based off of i dont,think its a manga i think its a comic,book series,but i would love to know is that a,recommendation,and did you enjoy this show flesh your,thoughts out,in the comments and stay tuned because,tomorrow we have more netflix reviews,coming your way for wish dragon,and a very special show thats bringing,us part two,see if you can guess what that is,alright guys ill see
Trese Review | A Filipinos Perspective
I first enountered the series during the Lasallian Festival while it was Lasallian week back in 2013, I think.,Me and my bestfriend saw the comic displayed at a stall, ,and we were intrigued by the cover, so we went ahead and bought an issue each.,I remember I loved the comic to the point that I wanted to buy all the other issues, but the problem was,I couldnt find where to buy them, until it eventually slipped my mind. ,My memories of when I read that first issue came flooding back,,and I became excited yet again,I have no problems with the dub, AT ALL,All of the dubs were super solid,I watched the first episode in Japanese, Filipino, and English.,I didnt get to watch it in Spanish because when I realized there was one, it was too late.,Kudos to the hiring of the English voice cast because most of them are full or part Filipino.,My issue with the English dub was the random accent changes,,and almost all of the characters except for Alexandra have this Jo Koy/Mikey Bustos accent.,Yeah, a lot of the characters in the anime speak English that way, so it sounds really weird.,Even Capt. Guerrero has some sort of Mexican accent, so it was really weird for me.,Im just saying that it wasnt the optimal viewing experience for me.,As for the Japanese and Filipino dubs, theyre both solid, I have no problems there.,My biggest problem are those people who dismiss the Filipino dub because its “cringe”,This is it.,Guys, this is our chance to watch an anime that we understand–,–that we can watch the full story without looking at the subs that dont need English dubs.,THIS IS IT,And then youll just write it off as… Cringe?!,Just because they used Tagalog for the dub, its automatically cringey?,Ive also seen comments saying that the Japaese dub is better because it “sounds more like an anime”.,Its okay if they try the Filipino dub first,And if they decide that they enjoy the Japanese dub better, then its fine. ,But if your only reason to watch the Japanese dub is that is “sounds more like an anime” ,I dont know what to do with you anymore.,The anime was adapted from a Filipino comic,,which would make sense that youll watch it in Filipino, right?,Its as if the “Kagebunshin Technique times two times two times two” werent a part of your childhood.,Oh, and another not-so-big complaint,I wish they animated Trese in a way that matches what they say in Tagalog, rather than English. ,It was a missed opportunity to match the Filipino dub to the characters speaking ,so it would more like an actual Filipino adaptation, right?
Was Trese Trash?
netflix original anime and my limited,experience has either been very very,solid or complete,so which category does this new,supernatural detective show fall under,lets talk about it,lets start with the plot try to say not,to be confused with the word trish,is at its core about the struggles in a,city where humans and shape-shifting,monsters call that swang have to,co-exist,we follow a woman named alexandra tresse,who acts as a bridge between the two,going around investigating supernatural,crimes and keeping the peace,episode by episode the crimes start,getting more and more up until a,bigger scheme unfolds,lets talk about the characters with,netflixs stupid six episode runtime,its actually pretty hard to get me to,care about a character,so did the show manage to do so,surprisingly it did,wait who the is that you have my,many things young thresher,i think they got keemstar in this show,who whos that hey buddy were closed,uh no theres no way im gonna throw the, up,no stop please,keemstar no for real though everyone,could have died by the end and i really,wouldnt have felt any way about it,alexandra is your typical stoic badass,has been interacting with the,supernatural her entire life so shes,unfazed by it shes fully devoted to her,work,and making sure the monsters respect the,treaty they have with the humans,moving on the boys are her supernatural,bodyguards that just fly around and,shoot youd think that theyd be,boring brainless lackeys but nah they,actually had some moments of personality,those three are really the only main,characters that mattered there was also,a cop that acted as a father figure to,alexandra and a simp but they were,boring so who cares,now we get into probably the shows,strongest aspect the side characters,being based on filipino folklore the,show had an insane amount of creatures,it could have used,we got a super goblin a flying flaming,skull,drum alert nation horse people the list,goes on,seeing the ways alex would interact with,him was mad entertaining,for example the sewer goblin called nuno,the snitch,he kept up with what happened in the,underworld and would rat out his own for,pieces of chocolate,the shows greatest strength is also one,of its weaknesses though,the initial intrigue of being shown all,these monsters and magic,wears off by like episode 4 and by then,youre left thinking about the shows,flaws,you start to realize that the shows in,action mode ninety percent of the time,when youre not in a flashback,speaking of which most of the shows,story is told through the flashbacks you,would have like 10 minutes of brain dead,fight scenes and then a flashback would,start,and try to inject an entire episodes,worth of story down your throat in like,three minutes,it got so bad in fact that in the last,episode the entire first half of it was,just the main villain talking to you,and telling you why you shouldnt even,care about everything going on the sad,thing is,him talking almost got me back on board,with the shows story,that is until like god-awful nasty,disgusting,all right hear me out the ending,straight you guys remember the,infamous ending to soul eater where maca,kills the bad guy through the power of,friendship,yeah picture that but switch friendship,with family the show felt rushed,throughout but at that point i could,tell the writers were like, weve hit a climax but weve only,got 20 minutes left of the show,quick think of something we still have,to set up a cliffhanger for season two,i came into the show with my only,experience of anything filipino,being getting flamed on clash of clans,for asking what the a pinoy was,when i was 12.,id imagine the reaction would be very,different for a kid who grew up as part,of the culture and finally watched it,come to anime,and even though i thought the show was,mid im happy to see new things being,made that arent just your edgy kid with,powers or a with inflatable tits,like the usual anime,thats it for the video if you disagree,tell me why in the comments thanks for,watching and ill see you soon
