Happy Sugar Life

its REALLY difficult to explain how i felt watching it. the way i put it when i explained it to my friends is: "the saddest fucked up best anime ive ever watched" best MIGHT be a bit of a stretch, but you get the point. it really made me question different elements of the show and who was morally right.
despite that, it didn't have the ideal ending i wanted it to have, however the ending is still somewhat (?) satisfying.

additionally: the reason i watched this show was because i originally thought it would be a cute yuri anime (ive learned that reading genres ... is important from this experience) but i really don't regret watching it anyways. would i watch this again? ABSOLUTELY not. is it going to stay in the back of my mind forever? definitely.

TLDR: Watch the first half of the season as there is so much content packed in, but towards the end, the story loses its charm.

Introduction
Satou a high school student has been living a normal school life. She behaves and acts like a normal and happy student however deep inside her life she is looking after one thing that is precious to her. Her name is Shio and Shio is the sole reason how Satou experiences love therefore she will do anything to protect her even killing the ones that are the closest to her.

Story 5/10
It is a horror anime that sets its stage so well ... and is frightening at the start in fact this is one of the scariest anime of all time. However, towards the end of the series, the story and settings become a mess and all the build-up towards that point has been wasted because of the poorly told story. At first, the setting of the anime is so well done, They demonstrate the mystery, drama, horror, and premise that leads towards that point, such as a missing Co-worker, the mysterious life of Satou, and why and how she is legally keeping Shio to herself. It is so scary and interesting at the start because there is so much mystery to discover the horror behind it. When it comes to the ending most of the build-up and interesting points have been misled or poorly executive narrative as the mystery behind the story hasn't given enough context towards a certain point of characters and the strong build-up to that point has practically killed off all the characters showcase as there isn't any epic or satisfying showcase when it comes to the end. To keep it short it feels like wow is so horrifying at the start then at the end when they executed it feels like is just that, nothing special.

Characters 6/10
Interesting story and well-acted characters, but the story destroyed the characters as the story has such a strong horrifying showcase. However, when it comes to the character confronting other characters giving a deep meaningful impact on what they're supposed to mean to them. It's not satisfying enough as it lacks a compelling point.

Animation 7/10
Very well animated, especially the horror scene, but lacks quantity and most of its horror scenes are only at the start.

Conclusion
The animation is good as it draws the horror scene so well, but when it comes to the story and character it started off well but slowly and surely it starts to fall off.

This shit was ass to be honest with you. Pink haired MC chick tries to be all Light Yagami when it comes to kidnapping lil girl MC, but it ends up being about as exciting as watching paint dry. Plus they literally show you the ending of the show in the first fucking scene. Like 30 seconds in, you know how this is ending. Great storytelling. "Durrr you don't get it, that's part of the plot device! Media literacy is dead!" No, it just makes me even more bored during the boring ass scenes in this show because I already know how this dumb shit ... ends. So why sit through it?? If you think this is psychological horror, you're weak. If you think this is a masterpiece, you're definitely the type of person to enjoy a two hour video essay made by some white guy about how grass is green.
