[...] It’s actually difficult to find documentation on LOLTOMINO examples, but 21stcenturydigitalboy’s post on dropping Overman King Gainer is quite informative (take the tone and overall rantish nature of the post as you will) [->] [...]

I’m afraid to ask, but what exactly are you referring to when you say plot holes?

Ahhh, a LOLTOMINO banquet, I’m doomed to see this. I just know it.

LOL that was one of the best lines in the show

“This chainsaw is also a gun!”

Hmm. I shared some of these problems myself. I’m probably just too acclimatised to lolTomino elements in my anime, like those earthworms that can survive in the arsenic-laced grounds of abandoned factories, so that, for example, the initially bemusing plot left me, in my just-smile-and-nod mode, unfazed. I won’t quibble with you on the characters’ oddities, or just plain lack of character, though.

But King Gainer has a gun that is also a chainsaw, so while I can see your train of thought leading to a drop decision, I don’t see myself following suit.
