The series suffers from the same problem as Urasawa's other works, it goes way past the point it should've ended at.
Story 8/10
The story starts slow, but I think it's pretty safe to say that the first 60 or so chapters truly are a masterpiece, until we have a time skip and it's kinda like the story just has a new start. It's still pretty darn good, but then it drags and it drags and it drags until a new time skip and at this point you'll just be fed up with it

The characters are just incredible, each of the characters in the main group

Typical JoJo, no different than the other parts, if you like JoJo, this will be an extremely fun ride. I recommend reading the earlier parts before this, as a lot of the fun of this part comes from references to earlier parts. With that, I'll go into this review with the expectation the reader is familiar with JoJo.
Story 9/10 It's basically the same formula that every JoJo part uses, we have a setup for a story and the journey is disrupted with fights, fights, and more fights. This part has some really dull stands and also some of the most interesting and fun stands. The same ...

Sentai Daishikkaku

Just a silly Power Rangers parody. At least that's what I treat it as.
Story 7/10 So far, this has been more fun driven than story driven. We have an extremely fun premise, and just run with it. I honestly hope the story doesn't try to get too serious. Characters 6/10 They feel more like parody than actual characters. Some are just annoying, but most are fun. Art 6/10 The most inconsistent art and animation I have seen. We'll go from perfectly fine to good to mediocre to disgustingly bad 3DCG. Most of the animation falls into the perfectly fine category, but the inconsistency is just jarring. ...

Bungou Stray Dogs

It feels as though the series itself doesn't even know what it is about.
Story 5/10 A mixture of comedy, and serious moments that just don't mesh together. This would be perfectly fine as a goof off series, but it tries to take itself serious time and time again, failing to do so every time. We do spend a considerable amount of time getting to know our cast, which makes me hopeful that this was more of an introductory season. Characters 7/10 A really fun, but forgettable bunch. The characters were the only thing that kept me watching. Art 8/10 The animation and art are pretty much what you can expect ...

An anime about mecha and politics, that can't seem to do either of them right.
Story 6/10 Endless talking with a minuscule amount of story sprinkled in between. The only purpose this endless talk seems to have is to introduce us to the characters, but this could be done in a lot less time with how little personality the characters have. World building works surprisingly well and is somewhat interesting. Once we're done with the basic world building, the story tries to get deep, but instead takes a route so generic I didn't even know it could be done. Characters 5/10 Most have a nonexistent personality, others are generic. ...

Season two of Mushoku Tensei slows the story down and takes more of a slice of life approach.
Story 7/10 Although the slice of life is fun, I wouldn't exactly call it a great story. The whole season basically focuses on teen romance and emotions filled with slice of life to stretch out the story. Characters 6/10 The characters are the same as before. Rudy is still a pervert, but seems to be taking a turn for the better, hopefully. New characters are rather meaningless. Art 9/10 Pretty much the same as before, maybe slightly worse overall. The first few episodes were filled with inconsistencies and messiness, but once we entered ...

Beastars 2nd Season
(Anime)
add
Season two of Beastars does basically everything the same as the first season.
Story 8/10 We get to see the amazingly intriguing animal society of Beastars again. This time the story is split in two we have Legosi's story of drama and struggles and then we have Luis' rather meaningless story. The drama portion with Legosi is just as fun to watch as in the first season, and luckily takes up most of the season. We also have some not so great action again this season. Characters 9/10 No noticeable changes in the quality of character writing. Art 9/10 The 3DCG and camerawork are top-notch, at least in anime standards. 2D ...

I didn't expect an animal society to be this interesting.
Story 8/10 Great drama with some not so great action on the side. What truly makes the story good is the world building. The dynamic between herbivores and carnivores or even the dynamic between different species' is incredibly well written. The world works in such a way that nothing really feels out of place or illogical, the setting is just perfect. The actual story also starts off amazing and stays so most of the way through, but nearing the end there is some not so well thought out action, leaving a feeling like it doesn't belong. Characters 9/10 The ...

At first a basic yet exciting shonen, which later builds into something amazing.
Story 8/10 Really beginner friendly and catered towards a younger audience, the story has its lows and highs. At it's best, it rivals some of the best series out there, but a lot of the time it's just mind fodder. The world building is great and the comedy is far more enjoyable than in the anime. Characters 10/10 The characters are my personal favorite part of the series. A lot of the main cast aren't that amazing, but many of the side-characters are just top notch writing. And even the less excitable characters have their ...

Kusuriya no Hitorigoto

add
Like a detective series about medicine.
Story 9/10 Mostly episodic mysteries with a bunch of variety and a lot of interesting character interactions, tackling some heavier themes in an easy to digest way. Some earlier episodes are a bit too fleshed out, recounting scenes for too long or Maomao going on a long ramble which just feels excessive. The further you get into the series, the better crafted the mysteries become, eliminating most issues. The only persistent issue I had with the story is the comedy, I just didn't find it funny, but it also didn't take away from the enjoyment so it's fine. Art 9/10 Really clean art ... |
