What an absolute Delight to show was. It had everything you want, and so peaceful at the same time
I wasn't pumped about another isekai but I got really invested in the character early on. It's been awhile since I enjoyed binging a show. This was a delight for me. The animation and the fighting scenes were great. Juju Kaisen has been getting all the attention but I thought the fighting scenes in JJK were nothing short of messy a lot of the time. This show has clean fight scenes. I also liked the twist on isekai too. It's not an isekai in the traditional sense.
I'm really looking forward to season 2
But whatever happened to making interesting standalone episodes?
If you like the commonplace woke shit of today with a bit of tacky acting and an otherwise entertaining show, this is for you. For me, I find the woke shit and the tacky acting way too much in my face to actually enjoy the plot. The fact that they even call the bad guy a "darkling" should give the reader some idea. Gay couples are flaunted, of course - I did mention woke shit. And by tacky acting, I mean the tendencies of several characters to overact. Kind of sad but this is more or less standard these days. There are great parts in the show, that's why it's so sad. The special effects and the wardrobe are great too.
kind of apprehensive to even watch this given how poorly GoT ended. Would I just be wasting my time again?
the psyche ward episode makes me want to quit the show right now. I hate this cliché crap. Is it really worth going on ?
While the show was unique and original I had trouble associating with any of the characters. Only the main character was really followed, and the other characters had no backstory and didn't have any growth during the season. Similarly, the main character has an interesting backstory of how she came to be in the situation, but this was hardly developed during the show, and more time was spent on the progress of the war than progressing any main story. The story of how Tanya got into this situation is the real curiosity. Also, I didn't find Tanya to be particularly evil, just skilled.
First season was very strong but it went downhill fast. Now it's only a bunch of interpersonal drama left
Basically this is Mac from it's always sunny in Philadelphia playing a CEO character. It's an entertaining show, but I think Rob could have challenged himself as an actor and played someone else this time around.
What a unique and uplifting show. The production quality of the music was unlike anything I've seen in any anime. The story was great, and it made me very happy to watch this. We follow two girls who decide to make music together after a chance meeting on a bridge and their rise to unite all of mankind.
The story is intriguing and it's well laid out. However, the main character Thorifinn is slowly reduced to an annoying side character with little value, and other characters are of more interest. The ending was really weak, and my rating is between 6 and 7.
The thing about a good anime, or any story for that matter, is that there has to be a good compelling reason to get into it, a good reason to keep watching it, and a good ending to tie it altogether.
Berserk was interesting enough to get into, and had high ratings to make me curious to watch it. There was no discernible plot until later, which was basically Griffith wanting to conquer the world and be king. This was his dream goal. There was some very loose ties to the necklace that he was wearing, the King's Egg, and this main plot. Most of the episodes existed outside of the main story, it seemed, with interesting fights and their conquests. The final episodes felt very rushed and detached from what the show had been building towards. It's was as if the team had suddenly been told "oops, hey you were supposed to have time, but ... well, finish it now" and it really shows.
I had to really struggle getting through the last episodes which became super dark, where the rest of the show wasn't. The shift in story and direction made me feel like it was a totally different show. It's not the show I got into, and as a result, the ending was a total mismatch from what I had expected and not at all satisfying.
There were some good quotes to think about, and the idea of fulfilling dreams in general. But it totally fell flat on its face on the end. I'm not sure why people overlook this in the other reviews, but I can't. There are many anime that will give you a good story as well as a coherent ending, this isn't one of them.
This anime really touched me. The story, the music, the art, it has it all.
The thing about this show is that it's my favorite. Sure, I have other amazing anime's on my list, like Stein's;gate. But this is a show that's brilliant in so many ways. How can you really compare two master pieces that are so different ? I can't say Hajime no Ippo is miles better, but I can say I wasn't on the edge of my seat in suspense in any other show. They grow characters nicely and their quirks transfer well, and the writers build on them. If you're not careful, you'll miss some jokes because of the deep character build-ups. It's a bit goofy at times, and it lightens the mood, and then it gets very intense. It's a nice emotional rollercoaster done very well.
I think you should watch this show :thumbsup:
Strong first season. Second season is a joke. feels like it's just a bunch of super heroes holed up in apartments. How fun is that ?
I thought for sure there would be more than one season. It's a pretty badass show. They could have gone a bit further I think because after the first few episodes, it slowed down.
this show is so boring and cliché. SAO and re-zero spinoff but without doing anything real to make it interesting. After a number of episodes dedicated to Ichirou running around being cute with his various women companions, I gave up. It had small element of uniqueness which maybe will be used later, I don't know. I can't take it anymore.
Highest rating if for nothing else than the wooden cube skitch. It was so freaking cool.
I won't watch anymore of this. I couldn't even make it through the first episode. I didn't really follow the plot, characters were annoying and exaggerated and of course, the oppai display is just silly. It felt totally unoriginal with everything I guess is the main gripe I have.
Characters that didn't have any logic. Annoying rebellious acts for no apparent reasons. "Wise" elder characters who bicker and are useless. Story line was inexcusably weak, character development was pathetic, and it was altogether a bad show. Original Airbender was good, this was not. Teen drama crap.
It's a pretty shitty show so far ... anyone else?
