Before you read this, I recommend reading my original review as I have a much different opinion on that show compared to this OVA. Thank you.
I'm gonna make this review very nice and simple. This OVA is absolute shite. It's literally just fanservice, like literally, it even says so in the description of the show for god sakes.
This is pretty much a poor excuse to get all the female characters into bikinis. Absolutely pathetic.
However, I'm not really giving this a 1 or 2 cause this did have some actual humor to it and I liked the ending.
Otherwise, if you didn't like the show, don't watch
...
this. If you liked the show, then there's really no reason to watch this, but if you wanted more HOTD then go ahead and watch this for the lols.

Why do people take this show so seriously?
A lot of the reviews I have read have been taking this show way too seriously. Its zombies and ecchi. I don't really think it was supposed to be serious. This show is just supposed to be really enjoyable, its extremely thoughtless. All it really is, is guns, girls and zombies. What more could you want?
The story is pretty simple, a zombie apocalypse starts and all hell breaks loose afterwards. So, an average bum, a ginger, a fat guy, a bitch who's a bitch, the badass chick who's only purpose is to be badass, the doctor thats practically
...
fanservice as her tits jiggle up and down every damn second, a loli and a dog have to run run till they're save from the zambies.
The story is pretty generic and the characters are all stereotypes. Takashi, the main character of main characters is really just an average dude, all the chicks in the group want to get banged by him, I've never seen that before! *cough* harems in a nutshell *cough* Rei is your basic dumb bitch who's purpose is to be that dumb bitch in zombie movies that is well, dumb. And as we go on, all the characters are a stereotype. So to finish off the characters quickly:
Saeko: Basic badass woman that knows kindo and can use katanas and stuff and has some bad past. Never heard this before.
Saya- Your basic rich girl that brags over how smart she is. I really don't have to say anything else...
Alice- Why is this character even here? She's just a plot device and literally has no purpose to be here.
Zero- It's a dog, you always need a dog!
Kouta- You wonder what, I have made fun of every character, but this guy, holy shit I love him. Its an otaku that knows how to use fucking guns! The explanation is stupid but I don't care, he has some genuinely funny dialogue and how can you not love him?
You wonder what I see through all of this? A tribute to all those zombie movies that started zombie movies. I love it man. This is really what this reminds me of. And I appreciate the writers and directors for doing this cause as much as I really don't like some of these characters (other than Kouta), I do enjoy seeing them kill zambies and getting into shitty situations.
And besides all that, this show is a lot of fun. There's action left and right and genuinely some funny dialogue. Like I said before this show isn't supposed to be taken seriosuly, it's just a lot of fun as we see a bunch of big tittied woman and 2 guys try to survive a zombie apocolypse. Overall, I had fun with this show.
To get it out of the way. The animation is pretty good. I liked some of the art, the zombies looked menacing, the animation is smooth and decent. At times CGI is used and it may be a little wonky looking and kind of didn't fit in the show. The music is so fitting to the show. Many uses of hard rock and pop music just fits into the show. Also, I fucking love the OP, gets me pumped up every time as the first couple of seconds open up with a guitar solo getting my anus prepared for tits and gore!
I recommend this show actually, if you want a simple and brainless anime to just entertain, I easily would recommend this.
7/10
Dub or Sub? Dub. It's really good and flashy and there's a lot of pop culture references. The sub is extremely taken seriously as everyone's voices dosen't really fit their characters.

The short ass review:
I love this show. 10/10
The actual review:
I love me some 90's anime, its quite good. I could go on for ages on how much I goddamn love this show. I could be a grown ass man by the time I'm done. But instead, I'll give a short 5 paragraph version of why I love this show.
Cowboy Bebop takes place in space with 2 bounty hunters (Spike & Jet) making cash off killing people. Later on they find a bad-ass women (Faye), a person who still after 17 years, nobody has any idea of it's sex (Edward) and a goddamn dog. We're
...
given enough information to work with for these characters as we meet them. It's not too much nor too little. As the show goes on, we delve deeper and deeper into the characters as we learn about their pasts. And that's really what the show revolves around, the history of a bounty hunter (Spike Spiegel) who has done a lot of bad shit which I won't talk about cause duh, spoilers. But it is real emotional. It even gets emotional for the other characters.
I love every character in this show, extra, side, main, doesn't matter. Each character has a personality and a backstory to them. Spike is a wise man with badass karate moves, life lessons and generally a backstory to cry over. Jet, man, who doesn't wanna be this guy? He's just cool and chill, he gets the job done, handles situations. Just a cool character. Faye Valentine is really a broken character who is trying to learn her past. And when you do learn it, you feel so sad for this character. Edward is wacky and love them. Enough said.
The animation is really well done even for a 1999 anime. For being some of the last anime to use hand drawn animation, it really is impressive. The music, ah. Man, the music. It's a mix of jazz and blues. Fuck me it's amazing. Each track is filled to the brim with amazing music. The opening is orgasmic and the ending is calming and just a beauty.
Overall, this show is just bad-ass. That's the one word I can say about this show. It has good storytelling, likable characters, superb animation and orgasmic music. If I can say a couple of minor issues. The first 4 episodes are extremely slow paced and try to introduce you to the show, but trust me. It sure may be a little boring, but after those 4 episodes. Episodes 5 & 6 are simply not only some of the best episodes of the show, but the best episodes in all of anime and TV. That's the only complaint I have with this show. So please, do yourself a favor and go watch this masterpiece. Also, watch the English dub, this is one of the only times I prefer dub over sub.

No one likes death. Death is well, dark. This show discover that idea, how death is well shit. There's probably things you regret or not, some life choices may affect your death. It shows how far human emotions can go.
The story revolves around two people who die at the same time, they both appear in a mysterious bar and are guided by an arbiter named Decim who has a co-partner by the name of Kurokami and fight to the death in a game. Based on what the contestants do, one could go to hell (The Void) or heaven (Reincarnation) and sometimes both could be reincarnated.
...
The show revolves around what two contestants we take or the mysteries of Decim and Kurokami. Its a good mix of story and is used really damn well. Even though 2 episodes in this show were quite boring and really fufilled nothing in the plot (Episode 7 & 10), these episodes may proceed some story but personally I found them to be useless and reccomend skipping them. This affects the story and feels like a waste to how well written the story is.
The Art can be described as dark while the atmosphere is mysterious. In each game, you really want to know how and why these people died, it supports this idea and is really a main highlight to the animation and art-style this show provides.
The music is an interesting choice. The opening provides a pop tune that is probably and easily some of my favorite OPs, it is questionable to use in the dark themes of this show but without it is just unskippable and really damn memorable. The ending is well done and dark and really gives you the feels after some situation in some episodes. The background music fits the show so damn well and really gives a true psychological theme to the show.
The characters are always performed well and each game's contestants can have shock factor of what they do to each other. Decim at first seems emotionless but slowly develops throughout the series and becomes something else. Kurokami, like Decim, seems meh at first but turns out to be a really feel for character and by the end, her developement scenes downright made me cry, with manly tears. The other characters are a little pointless and are there to either provide some light themes for the show or more of support of progressing in the plot.
Other than episode 7 and 10, the show is pretty enjoyable and will put you at the edge of your seat at times. It is one of those shows that likes to mix with your emotions so take this as a feel warning. I found myself easily anxious while waiting a week for each episode.
Story: 8.3
Art & Music: 9
Characters: 8
Enjoyment: 7.5
Overall: 8/10
Death Parade is a show worth your time and deserves the praise it gets. This show could easily be one of my favorite shows this year and it clearly shows signs of that. If you have enjoyed this show and want more like it I reccomend Black Butler, yes that show that gets way too much yaoi fanart. It has the same mysterious feeling and developed characters like Death Parade does and even though the last couple of episodes are filler, its suprisingly good filler. And or the last time, watch episode 7 & 10 at your own risk, like i said, I PERSONALLY found them boring and useless, you might find them fun and well done. Its my opinion dammit.

Short Version of this review:
This anime is over-looked and pretty underrated but in a good way. Not in the fact that its shit but in the fact that it wasn't really known when airing. This show is worth a watch and heartwarming. The only strong factor may be its story with its simplicity and way of storytelling. The art and animation are good for the most part while the characters lack in potential.
The Review:
The slice of life genre is like an escape goat from all the thrillers and actions out there, its like a fresh breath of air from the blood and maturity and
...
shows and is more of a relaxing way to watch. You could make something good out of the genre or fail terribly. Sora no Method is somewhere in about the middle. It has some good points but lack them.
The story is well written for the most part and original-ish with a few new ideas to the SOL genre. So recently a girl is returning to her old town, she meets up with new friends and then finds a mysterious little girl who then relates to the MCs past. The first episode is well done in showing us the setting and what to expect in this show. When an anime starts with its first episode, it should introduce you to what to expect, Sora no Method does it perfectly. Later on the story can drag on and some of the characters can be somewhat annoying and this factor cause them to somehow drag the story on. If the parts that drag on and the annoyingness of the characters are removed, this show could easily fit 10-11 episodes. Hell, looking at its setting its fit of the 11 or 22 episodes that a show would get for its interesting setting. The story is good but can really drag on.
The characters are pretty average and really don't need much detail. Nonoka, the MC, is just sloppy, she starts off well but later on seems more like a nuisance to the story, she has some good moments but the way she handles her friends is dumbwitted, you know how if you want to cheer up a friend and end up making them feel worser? Thats Nonoka but times 100 and you have one annoying ass MC. Souta is pretty ok, some of his developement scenes are pretty good and hell, he should be the MC, he knows how to cheer people up, he has his own harem (literally) so why not make him the MC? Noel, the saucer girl who is so goddamned cute, is a good one, her character developements are good and tear-worthy, overall she's a good character. Yuzuki is a average tsundre, Togawa is an annoying ass tsundre and Koharu is pretty much Friend A.
The animation is pretty nice, the backgrounds are well designed and the character designs, like how hard where the studio making this trying to get people to watch this, the characters are at least 13-14 yet they look like they're 10-11, they look like f-ing lolis, like what the fuck? The CGI is meh for the most part and normal animation is much better than it. The music is nice, both OPs and EDs are kind of catchy and enjoyable to the ears. The background music really fits some of the scenes in this including the character developements, its used well. The voice acting is pretty ok.
Now sometimes, this show can get a little boring. Some parts just drag on and you wonder when the hell is a certain scene gonna end. Now Yuzuki and Togawa are the main sector of the annoying characters. Yuzuki is easily offended and it should feel sad but feels more like a reason to let the show reach its 13 episode mark, she dosen't go back to normal till way later on, like I understood the situation but it dragged on. You know that annoying ass tsundre in a show that you hate but at least have some heart to them. Togawa is a flat out tsundre who I hated from beggining to end, she's a bitch (literally) and is there just to let the main cast ahave problems, if Togawa isn't in this hsow, this show would probably get a much better rating than it does now.
Story: 6.7
Art & Sound: 7
Characters: 5
Enjoyment: 4.5
Sora no Method is more of a show to let time pass, if you don't have shit to watch or want something thats relaxing, watch Sora no Method. A great show? No. A shit show? No. A Flawed show? Yes. Sora no Method gets a 6/10.

(This review does not focus on any segment and is more of a reasoning of why I gave ZnT a 5, I do list good points but I mainly point out the bad things, this is still a review and structures like one.)
Shinchiro Watanabe has made some goddamn memroble ass series', in the year of 2014, the first one which aired in Winter was Space Dandy, a fun and enjoyable show which got good response from audience, a second season came out in Summer, during summer, this show also was airing, and it got massive amounts of praise, but in reality, it didn't really need
...
all of it, this didn't really feel like Watanabe's works. His other works feel free to do anything, for example, in Cowboy Bebop, the plot and characters were given to us in about 8 episodes and from there on, the story could do what it wants, it could focus on any topic. Here it just feels strict and forced, 11 episodes really isn't enough to spread the story here. Cause of this it makes characters feel less memroble and have less time to develop, now I'm not saying that 11 episodes is way too little for a show, there's amazing shows that are only 11 episodes such as The Tatami Galaxy. The developements needs more time and the plot needs more explaining and the explaining done in this show is rushed and needs to take its time.
Now I sound like i'm saying way too many bad things about this show and sound like I'm just gonna shit all over this show. Well not really, some key points to this show is the music and animation, this is not the only good things about the show but I do want to get it out of the way. The music is general is goddamn beautiful, its OST is filled with vibrant and calm moods, its a OST I'd actually pay money for. The OP is creative and inutitive with its vibrant animation and great concept of its music. The ED is a sad tune to really make you feel sympathy for some of the characters and the one it focuses on. the voice acting is solid and performed well by the characters. I could go on a whole paragrah or two saying how beautiful the music is, but this is a review, not a music analyzation. The animation is well done, everything seems hyper-realistic, people actually drew all this shit! The character designs are drawn well and look realistic as animation forms. This leads to the next good couple of things about this show.
The realism of this show is a whole 'nother level compared to other anime's worlds, it makes slice of life look like a puppy. Yes you heard me, a thriller's world makes a slice of life's look childish. The world is what you'd expect in modern society, the show even shows you some civillians lives when something happens and their reactions, it really shows you this isn't some place where anything can happen out of nowhere. This just sucks you into the show, even the technology used by the main MCs fr
or bombing and hacking are actual things from the real world such as Apple products, Sony, even out of that. Now I'm only mentioning this to show its realism, not, 'the MCs use Apple, the MCs have shit taste, why aren't they using [insert non-apple thing here]? Take a note of that.
The only way I was able to watch this show was cause of this world alone, other than that, it seems, meh. There isn't really much else from that. The characters are intriguing at first but as you learn about them, by the last couple of episodes, the only entertainment is the tense scenes, music and beautiful scenery. The world is pretty much how it would act in panic mode which has been done before in anime. So really, the beautiful world just becomes something frail.
Now for the only thing i haven't mentioned, the characters, the glue between Story and Enjoyment. We have Nine and Twelve, Both these are the MCs and are terrorists, the interesting thing about them is that they don't kill anyone when doing their attacks. By the end of this show, even when we know all about their pasts, we still don't know why they don't kill people during their bombings. Now their personalities (no pun intended) are average at best, Nine is smart, brutal and poker face all the time man while Twelve is happy, clumsy and smiling all the time man. Their bond is strong, they both act as if they're brother of sympathy and pain. Later on in about episode 4 or 5, Lisa joins in on 9 and 12. As much as I don't wanna say it, she's more of a plot-device than anything and is goddamn useless to the plot. We don't know shit about her past, she gets bullied for some reason and she runs away from here mom cause she's overprotective, why she runs away? What does her mother really do? Sure we see her call and text her daughter (Lisa) more than usual but we don't know much about her. She has a bond with 12 yet why we need this bond? We don't really know, probably added for fanservice and pointless shipping. What I'm saying in this long paragraph in summary is that these characters have their ups and downs but in reality they feel rushed and leave plotholes.
Story: 5
Art: 10
Sound: 10
Character: 6
Enjoyment: 5
Zankyou no Terror has so much potential yet dosen't have enough episodes nor time to space it out. Its a good idea done poorly. I like the idea of the terrorism. I like how smart 9 and 12 are. I like how they plan out their bombs. I like how they trick the police. I love the fuck out of the world, music and animation. This show could have been something amazing, if it had 22 episodes and had more time to flesh out things, this show could be a deep message about terrorism. Do I reccomend this show? Well not really, but as time to waste, go ahead, its only 11 eps and can easily be finished in one sitting. ZnT is good ideas wasted.

Dating Sims are usually a joke topic in the anime industry, in anime they're not used that in much, famous in Japan, but not outside of it. We have a show that focuses on that topic. It isn't anything original and dosen't have any tricks up its sleeve. Its just some normal harem thats fun to watch. Saekano at first seems like something filled to the brim with fanservice judging from the prologue (Episode 0), but it isn't really that. The actual show is well, okay. Its really something lighthearted and filled with dialouge'o'plenty.
The story is, normal. I don't really have to go in detail
...
or praise or any of that shit. A guy wants to make a game, gets a bunch of female-friends to help. Sometimes the story does try to make the other characters seem, 'realistic'. When in reality all of these people are really just normal High-school students yet one is a profesional writer, one is a porn doujin artist, one is your average waifu material and one which comes in way later on in the show is someone who hates otakus and is in a band. High-school student much? The show could have made the characters at least in college, but nah, thats too original.
The characters, are pretty average, no detail for them too, hell, they're painfully average. You have Tomo, the guy who wants to make a game and inspires people but yet is surrounded by women (no sexist statements). Utaha, the sexy yet cold writer who does the scenarios yet does semi-naughty things to the MC. Eriri, the typical tsundre who's into perverted stuff yet secretly is in love with the MC. Megumi, the typical average girl who's pretty much waifu material at best yet grows close with the MC and is probably the only one who deserves the D. Michiru, the one who hates the otaku industry yet still helps out and is somehow blind in the music she makes. I guess thats all I really need to say about the characters.
The art is pretty good, it gets the mood right and really sets the tune for the show and what its about. The music is pretty darn good, The OP and ED are both really well done, and skipping either does really feel bad, if you skip either then you probably have a shit taste in music (if you took that seriously you're a dumbass). The OSTs are really good and the voice acting is well done even though the MC is the voice actor of Kirito from SAO.....but either way its solid.
The show is fun to watch, filled with refrences, tropes and some cliches here and there. For a show mainly focused on dialouge, its really intriguing and you really can't wait week after week to see what happens. No words here too.
Story: 6
Art: 7.5
Sound: 8
Character: 5
Enjoyment: 7
Saekano is an intriguing show, it fits 22 episodes instead of 12, hopefully it gets a second season, if not, it should probably be with shows such as No Game No life and Btoom which are waiting for a S2. To end this review I shall quote cause why not?
The show is okay and fun to watch. Its really just a lighthearted otaku comedy with its tropes.

Parasyte is unlike many horror and Seinens we see today, its both of those done right. I really don't need to review this. To sum up this review, GO FUCKING WATCH THIS SHOW NOW!!!!!!! Now for the people who have time to read this, this show has been praised to the sun, it deserves the praise it gets, a well written plot, some really well developed characters, one of the best OPs like of all time, smart censoring and a goddamn blast to watch. Thats a second summarisation of this review...
Parasyte's story is truly unique from start to finish, it pulls you in with the
...
idea of its alien like creatures known as 'parasites' it explains to you everything you need to know in its first ep. and then slaps you on your butt gently and then you're good to go. It really explores human society and how its one fucked up society. The problems would probably include how the pacing can sometimes be, slow, we see something happen but in a way where the show needs half a damn episode to explain, get to the point already! Also it can suffer from its story can be a little dull, we get focused on one parasite in the beggining of the story, which isn't really that important and later on we get some dull things to get you hyped for bigger things to come which really does ruin the show's mood.
The characters are really well done. At first we have Izumi Shinichi, the main protagonist in this show, he seems like you're typical average student, but migi comes along and spices his life up (the second MC) and seeing how 2 different beings work together is pulled off well. We see how both grow as characters and slowly become badass. There's Murano, which many people hate, I liked her, she cared for Shinichi, she dosen't wanna see him go through bad things, she's there to help him with problems, in the manga she's way more of a bitch to how people talk about her, so no hate.
The Animation is pretty good for the most part, its solid and some techniques of censorship is done really well, it leaves your imagination and thats really the true gore of it. The music is decent, the OP is goddamn amazing and upbeat while the ED dosen't really fit the show, its nice yet seems more fitting to a Slice of Life than a horror. The OSTs are good even though they're dubstep, but are creative for some scenes. The voice acting is done well and deserves bonus points for realism.
The show is a blast to watch, with tense ass action scenes and scenes that really get you on the edge of your seat, No dialouge is useless and it takes no time to waste your time unlike as I said earlier where some dialouge does seem to drag on. There was one episode in particular that made me bored but besides these little technical problems, you'll find not very much boredom.
Story: 9.3
Art: 8
Sound: 9
Character: 9.5
Enjoyment: 9.7
Parasyte stays true to its manga which is fucking 26 years old! Yes something that old can still be good. And as people say it 'Retro will always win'. Madhouse did a splendid job adapting and i give kootos to them and hope their future projects are as good as this, especially with a One Punch Man adaption on its way by themselves! Stop everything you're watching and watch this shit, you won't regret a single minute.

By the end of this show, you will love it, its really something worth your time. Out of many shows airing today this show is really something to look forward to each week, now it can be enjoyed in its full glory even though the show does need a second season, dammit. Akatsuki no Yona is definitly a show you won't forget.
At first, this show seems like your average run of the mill shoujo reverse harem, but by the end of the first episode as the story goes on, it seems to be more than that, its really a well written story which focuses on
...
vengence and betrayal, it blow other shoujos away. The pacing at times when getting dragons to join may seem a little slow and does drag on here and there. Sure it does focus on finding the dragons but get to the point already, sure there may be a sidestory but can we just get these people coming in?
The characters are done well and are beautifully developed, Yona is pretty much one of my faviroute female characters of all time, she starts off weak and fragile like a little kitten and develops on to be something big, a brave independent creature awaiting its prey, its done in a way that developing her is spot on. If I'd rate Yona alone it would be an easy 10. Hak is Yona's first protector, being known since childhood, Hak is goddamn badass, he helps Yona and keeps her safe from danger, he'll use himself as a tool to protect her. The other dragons are pretty good characters each with their own backstories and being well developed to Yona. The problem i have here is that some of these characters might say a serious speech and then revert to comedy, at first its a good ol'joke but it keeps getting used so much that its just a pain in the ass at times.
The Art is pretty good for the most part, it has some well done character designs and sometimes has some well detailed characters. Same goes for sound, its great to listen, both OPs and EDs are goddamn beautiful and the OSTs fit the shows theme.
The show is a blast to watch, it leaves no plotholes (from my point of view) and has dialouge that seems useful. The problem is that sometimes this show is a serious adventure fantasy and then converts to a shoujo comedy and usually this transition feels unatural and ruin the tense moments. At times its pretty funny but at times, I can't even.
Story:9
Art:8
Sound:8.5
Character:9
Enjoyment:9.5
Akatsuki no Yona is a goddamn pleasure to watch and I'm glad I didn't ignore it. At first the plot sounds generic, but give the show a chance and you'll experience some of the most well done developements in anime in years. This show deserves a Season 2, hell it needs ne. And this all comes from Studio Pierret... how about putting this effort in Tokyo Ghoul? But besides jokes, you should seriously start watching Akatsuki no Yona right now.

(These are my impressions of the 9 episodes i've watched of this show, not a full review, pls take a note of that also there are gonna be some spoilers from S1, but it dosent matter cause this is shit anyway.)
Are you fucking kidding me Studio Pierret? After seeing Yona of the Dawn from Fall and how well done it was, I thought this not might be a fuckup. Well the first episode was good, like seriously, it was really good. And with a new director on board, hell the author of the damn manga and being an anime original. I thought this show was
...
finally gonna be respected, well my hopes were brought down after the first episode. What went from such a great beggining turned into a sloppy mess of a sequel, its somehow worse than Season 1, Season 1 was shit whereas this is shit and piss. How do you top off what was a mess of the first season? Lets find out shall we?
So the story left off S1's cliffhanger ending, after Kaneki goes coocoo mode and is now 'Badass Kaneki" he decides to join the enemy and take revenge on the people who tortured him. Sounds like a story of sorrow and revenge. From the sounds of it how is this gonna be bad? This sounds like a great plot! Well no, from there on, the story evolves around so many new and old characters that you feel like your watching Durarara on LCD. You're wondering whats going on, Its not even doing what shows with big casts do best, it connects. Here it dosen't connect, one second we're looking at the goverment and their plans, the other we see these new characters, the other we see these old characters thats do stuff. Like compared to the first season, what the fuck is going on?
The art here at first, there was no censoring.....yes you heard me.....no.....cen- wait, on Ep. 5 they brought it back, and its as terrible as ever.............FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- well other than that, the animation is as average as the first season with beautiful backgrounds as usual, not much to say.
The music here is pretty good, I found myself in love with the OP, it shows how dark and tragic Kaneki,'s past is, only problem about it is that the animation is choppy. The ED is really damn good, a improvement over the previous ending, its catchy and enjoyable. The background music is OK for the most part, and the acting is goddamn well done, Kaneki's voice shines like it has before as well as the other characters.
The characters, good grief, what have they done? Not gonna say much on this, first off we have the 'MC' which is Kaneki, well last season the show didn't focus on him, but here, he hardly gets any screentime and is hardly even focused, how do you take a problem and make it worser? The other characters, Touka has went from a meh character to a somehow weak bitch. The other characters arent worth mentioning except for two. Amon and Akira, these two actual have some developement and feel like the real MCs, these 2 feel like a real duo and get the job done. Other than that, the under-devolpment returns and is much worser, hell there isn't even any this time around.
Now the enjoyment, the only actual episodes I enjoyed were Ep 5 & 6, these 2 eps actually were enjoyable, they were engaging and fun. Other than that, the show will bore you with dialouge that half of the time dosen't matter and boring ass characters. There are a couple of innuendos here and there that are worth a chuckle but thats really it.
Story: 4
Art: 4.7
Sound: 7
Character: 1.5
Enjoyment: 2.5
Overall: 3
This show was a damn dissapointment, the fact I was actually kind of hyped for this makes me feel bad, SP, you had a chance to show us what you can do but fell off your ass, gave up and gave us this atrocity. If you want something which is much better, Parasyte, which is nearly done airing is TG done right. Overall, leave this and the the first season like they're the plague.
