How do you feel about Rie Matsumoto's works, in particular Kyousougiga and Kekkai Sensen?
I feel like these two shows were kinda fun but ultimately lacking in any meaningful story, and everything is confusing as fuck. I see a lot of praise for these shows but I can't really see why considering they're not that great.
I love both of these series and I have to say it's likely just because of the nice family aspect. Both series revolve around some kind of group of associates/friends/families that are or grow closer and have amazing interactions. Also their settings are just the kind of stuff I dig.
I really dig the chaotic first episodes for both series. They created bustling worlds that felt lived in. I agree that things do kind of fall apart near the end of each series, though they do both end on a high note.
She definitely has a unique way of directing. The first few episodes of both shows were a treat to watch. Her shows also has nice OSTs, and she definitely knows when and where to put certain songs to elevate scenes. It's a shame that usually the plot is a mess. She usually made things more complicated than it seems. A simpler story with her direction style would be interesting to watch. I do think it's better if she kept doing original stuff. The Kekkai Sensen cast (except MC) felt so out of place in her original story.
