SENPAI III

Anime was a mistake. If you're an adult and you dedicate your life to watching anime (these people are called weebs) then you just don't have a life. I'm pretty sure Sithu Aye isn't that type of person but in this album he basically makes anime music. And by that I mean the one you hear in those College-Drama-With-An-Anime-Girl-That-Is-Crying-In-Every-Single-Hour-Of-The-Day animes. It usually features some happy acoustic guitar and MIDI piano along with a silly flute that gets me on my nerves. Exaggeratedly happy, poppy, commercial, un-surprising and filled with ten megatons of cheese, it makes Dream Theater look like the most soulful and thoughtfully-deep band in the world. Not even metal was able to save it. It's just so predictable that I don't even want to listen it again. I had to go listen to Obscura to cleanse my ears from the mozzarella.

Sithu Aye is a great musician. Invent The Universe is a true gem, and the rest of his discography doesn't fall short either. I just don't understand why he did this, I hope there's no Senpai III II. I hate that type of anime theme, so of course I wasn't going to like an entire album inspired by it.
