Hot Take: 【OSHI NO KO】's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Honestly, 【OSHI NO KO】 would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in 【OSHI NO KO】 actually is?

Everyone praising the 【OSHI NO KO】 performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.

The cinematography in 【OSHI NO KO】 is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Rewatched 【OSHI NO KO】 last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
