Oh, why did I click the link? Why, oh why, do I like to hurt myself? So anyway, I sat through the whole first Web Original episode (excluding end credits) and nearly scratched my own eyes out in result.
Let's start with the good part. I like the animation style, it really fits the idea (however bad that idea may be). And... um... that's all. Really.
Now, with that said, the episode is absolutely horrible. It starts with an incredibly stupid theme song, sung by an annoying little girl's voice and with irritatingly stupid lyrics about what exactly is this crap about. It's short, but not short enough to prevent you from sticking your fingers so deep inside your ears it'll cause you brain damage.
So our story begins in front of an unidentified school with a child in front of it. A school bus arrives, drops off our protagonist, a dumb and annoying girl named Charlotte, and drives off. Her stupidity is established early on, as a giant red cat kills the other child and she only reacts by "Ooh, a kitty!"
But the bell rings and she must go find the classroom no. 4. In the next scene, we see all sorts of bad things going on in the school, as Charlotte counts the doors she walks by. I don't know why was the scene so important that the author of this "masterpiece" decided to include it, because it was neither funny, interesting nor contributed anything to the story. Oh, I'm sorry, I meant "story". By the way, I have to mention the animation again. Yes, the style is good, but the author wasn't able to utilize its full potential. Or any potential, for that matter. If you watch the scene and don't immediately think "I would've done that better" then there's something seriously wrong with you.
So, anyway. Charlotte enters the classroom and is greeted by her obviously nervous teacher. Why is he nervous? Well, it's because of... that... other girl from the opening theme... yeah. It reminds me of the classic The Twilight Zone episode "It's a Good Life" (which I've unfortunately never seen). So we're treated to the classic "we're all afraid of the person who'll arrive shortly" setup, in this case a girl that "makes things", but it kinda doesn't work. The acting is really bad, and all the "drama" is finally lost when the feared-by-all girl, Vendetta, enters the room, accompanied by a yellow bear. Wait, what? Vendetta? Vendetta?? Why the hell did they call her "Revenge"? No, wait, why the hell didn't they call her "Revenge"? At least that would've been a lot more original and imaginative! And her voice... oh god. Vendetta speaks with a (I guess) Russian accent for no good reason other than that the creator's Russian friend wanted to be in. Oh, and that bear is actually a giant yellow hamster. Yeah, even though it walks on its hind legs, has long forelegs (actually arms in disguise) and looks nothing like a fucking hamster! Oh god, let's move on...
So the lesson starts, but the Badly Named Chick bullies the teacher into calling a recess pretty much immediately, after which the Too Dumb To Live Chick gets up and leaves while saying "I love this school" (the closest this episode ever gets to a joke). After that, we find her on the swing in front of the school, where she is approached by V and her giant yellow hamster bear. These two try to bully the future Kelly Bundy by cutting the swing she's sitting on and suggesting that they can cut other things, too ("Cut her head off! She doesn't use it anyway!"), but the implication goes completely over her head.
And so our story ends with all both characters established, the series' theme set and the viewer on the verge of suicide. Seriously, this concept is stupid, but it would work in the hands of a moderately skilled individual. However, what we have here is unimaginative, unfunny, badly written, acted and animated piece of steaming dogshit. But what did you expect from a link our beloved Ryuuoutan posted. Now excuse me, I have to go scrub my brain.
tl;dr: Not worth checking out.
