11eyes

When the sky turns red, the moon turns black, and monsters begin roaming the streets, Satsuki Kakeru is at a loss for what to do. Along with his best friend Yuka, they try to decipher why they have been sent to this strange world, which is seemingly empty aside from themselves.

However, when the "Red Night" ends, Kakeru and Yuka believe it was all a dream—until it happens again, and they are left in a dangerous situation. They meet four others in the same predicament: Kusakabe Misuzu, an expert swordswoman; Tachibana Kukuri, a strange mute girl who looks uncannily like Kakeru's deceased sister; Hirohara Yukiko, a lively young girl whose personality reverts to that of a cold killer when her glasses are removed; and Tajima Takahisa, a young pyrokineticist.

As the six of them band together to survive and discover what this mysterious world is, things take a turn for the worse as six shadows appear before them...

Under Rated.
Oh there is a minimum work count that's fine. I went into the show blind without seeing the ratings. Finished watching in 2 days and wow it was fantastic. Though to be clear, I love shows that are able to surprise me but still make sense. This one does, again and again. I also love a fast paced show. In a world full of predictable cookie cutter anime, this is a gem. The fact it appeared to be another generic anime before turning into a real show was just one of the twists.

I decided to give it a 10. ... Logged in to see it averaged 6... that's odd. Did I get the right show? yep, 11 eyes...6/10. Wow that's a big gap. Not sure what happened there. I reconsidered my 10 but have to stand by it for emotional impact over the last few episodes. 6/10 is in the trash category and this was great. I thought it would have averaged at least an 8. Perhaps it got some bad ratings after the first 2 episodes and that gained momentum?

If you liked Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica you will like this. If you haven't seen Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica go watch that first as a test. If you don't like it you can probably skip this one too. Dark plot heavy world destroying anime may not be your thing.

Mixed Feelings

I do not understand the average score of 6.2 at the time of this writing. I thought this anime was great and as far as I'm concerned it's clearly underrated. I thought 11eyes did a lot of things well from solid pacing with no slow segments, very nice visuals (especially for when it came out), creative enemy designs and a standout soundtrack. I also really appreciated the dark tone and atmosphere.

As far as what I didn't like, fan service in general does not bother me and at this point it's simply something that I'm used to from seeing it so many times, but in this ... anime it felt incohesive. One moment they're trying to tell a rather dark story with themes like revenge and suicide and the next a character is randomly groping the breasts of the female lead. If they want the story to be taken seriously and come off as dark and epic, this definitely detracted from that.

There were also, surely, some eye-roll inducing conveniences. On more than one occasion when a member of the main cast is in trouble and about to be defeated another character shows up out of nowhere at exactly the right time, usually the very last moment and often wielding powers we never knew they had, to bail them out. This felt rather cheap and cliche. It also sometimes felt as if bad guys would rather chit chat than actually fight and they do not capitalize on many of their opportunities to kill the main characters solely because that's not what the plot needs to happen. For those reasons, while always visually pleasing, the combat is, perhaps, one of the weakest core elements of the show.

There's also one character, specifics of which are difficult to discuss without spoilers, whose personality changes quite dramatically over the course of the show, arguably for fairly minor reasons given how strong this character's reaction is to certain events, but I'm a bit more forgiving of this than other viewers seem to be because this character has clearly established pre-existing circumstances that almost certainly would have caused trauma and emotional problems and for me it was not surprising that this character could become unhinged if certain things were to occur. Decide for yourself, but this element of the plot did not offend me at all.

At the end of the day I disagree with the consensus on this one. I thought I watched an uptempo, visually pleasing, darker tone shounen with a bit of emotional depth and a standout soundtrack. I really liked it, absolutely recommend it and would absolutely watch it again.

OBJECTIVE RATING- 7.5
PERSONAL ENJOYMENT RATING- 8

11eyes

Rating: 4/10

Animation: 2/2
11eyes looks really awesome! The drawings and animations are super smooth, especially during the exciting fight scenes. The colors are super cool, especially when the characters are in a creepy, different world. The places and backgrounds are spooky and mysterious, which makes the show look really interesting. If you like shows that look nice, this one will grab your attention, but sadly, that’s about all it has going for it.

Sound: 2/2
The music and sounds in 11eyes are also really great! The music fits the dark, creepy vibe of the show, with spooky tunes that make you feel nervous when something important happens. The ... beginning and ending songs are catchy, and the voices of the characters match the scary feeling of the show. Even though the characters themselves aren’t that interesting, the people doing their voices do a good job.

Characters: 0/2
Here’s where the show starts to fall apart. The characters are really boring and don’t change or grow throughout the story. The main guy, Kakeru, isn’t very interesting, and his backstory doesn’t make him any better. He doesn’t seem to really connect with the other characters, and they all seem like characters you’ve seen before in other anime. The show doesn’t give us much reason to care about them or their stories.

Plot: 0/2
The story is the worst part. At first, it seems mysterious and cool, but after a while, it becomes really confusing and hard to follow. There are a lot of surprises and twists, but they don’t make much sense and aren’t explained very well. The show sometimes moves too slowly and other times too fast, which makes the whole story feel all over the place. By the end, when there’s a big surprise, it doesn’t feel satisfying – it just feels like a bunch of ideas that don’t fit together well.

Conclusion:
11eyes is really good when it comes to how it looks and sounds, creating a spooky and dark world. But the boring characters and confusing story make it hard to really enjoy. Overall, it gets a 4/10 because even though it looks cool, it just doesn’t have a good story to go along with it.
