Is razbliuto a second season? Also, what does razbliuto MEAN?
Summary:
A trailer for a new Great Pretender animation is announced.
It introduces Dorothy — quite possibly, Laurent’s ex.
The specifics of Razbliuto will be announced on Anime NYC 2023, on November 18th.
If we had a nickel for every anime about hijinks of a morally dubious, international cast of characters, we wouldn’t have had THAT many nickels — but between the likes of Cowboy Bebop, Black Lagoon and Lupin III, this assortment of nickels would’ve been worth its weight in gold.
So color us pleasantly surprised about the announcement of Great Pretender Razbliuto — a new entry for 2020’s Great Pretender:
Spectacular con artists
Edamame (well, Makoto Edamura) is a con artist specializing in scamming old people and tourists — two of the most gullible kinds of targets you could possibly have, right behind kids looking for free robux and My Hero Academia (Boku no Hero Academia) fans thinking Horikoshi is a competent writer. And given Makoto’s long streak of easy swindles, he gets a big enough head to even call himself the best con artist in Japan — which is naturally put to the test when one of his tourist would-be-victims turns out to be an even better con artist, visiting Japan for a short while.
The run-in puts police on Makoto’s tail, so he flees the country, going to Los Angeles along with the foreign swindler (Laurent Thierry) in hopes to let the heat die while he proves that that was a fluke and he’s still a better con artist. What follows this decision is a rather rough awakening for Makoto, and a series of entertaining international cons, most of them are even good! (Well, aside from the last case of Season 1, that one is much more controversial)
What is Razbliuto?
Dictionaries define “razbliuto” as “the sentimental feeling you have about someone you once loved but no longer do.” So, generally what you are feeling for your ex, as long as the breakup wasn’t too bad — and given how half of the trailer was dedicated to the new character Dorothy, we can expect her and one of the central characters to have a history. Quite possibly, Laurent, the heartbreaker that he is.
What exactly is the Great Pretender Razbliuto, though, will be revealed during a panel with WIT Studio and Production I.G. on Anime NYC, on November 18th. We are hoping for an entirely new season, but it is much more likely to be a movie. Either way, it will likely be worth checking out for everyone who watched the first season, regardless of their opinions on the last arc.
