Somari and the Guardian of the Forest
| This show flew through my radar if it wasn't for my friend recommendation I would've missed this completely. To me this show is a straight 9 but then so far I haven't seen anything more beautiful than this with both plotwise and artistic for a tv series level. Damn even the soundtrack is very fitting, much more memorable than most of the anime nowadays. That's why I gave it 10/10 with a little bias. Yet I've seen many comments in the forum saying: "meh", "boring". Why? This show never meant to be interesting with silly shounen adventures. If you don't like this kind of story why bother with it in the first place? I guess that's why the series isn't popular? If so it's still kinda strange that there are many so called "tear jerking" anime which is far more popular than this but disappointed me greatly. For the ending I find it very understandable and satisfying nonetheless. Even though we don't get to see the golem last moment, it's a start for the Golem to appreciate his short remaining time with Somali. Knowing full well that she will be taken care of even when he is no longer with her. Surely if there's anything greater than this I'm all ears but with low expectation. |
| I'm with you on this one through and through, and curious just the same. One thing to know is that the manga allegedly was cancelled by the mangaka. |
 |
| Honestly it should be rated lower imo. Just some seasonal cry porn. Nothing special. |
  ♡ Harder Daddy ♡ |
| Since when is 7.82 low? |
| the rating is high enough for me and it deserve even when airing its going through under people radar |

For retards it only can be 4/10 or less. Both are valid since they are personal oppinion. Now, avoiding MY personal oppinion about this anime and trying to interpret the average MAL user: - The plot. It started with many possibilities, from perfect happy end to a complete tragedy. But ended not that far from the same situation when it started. Golem is going to come back to dust soon, Somali still a brat, world still a no-no for humans. "More important are the feelings and the friends we made along the way" Lol It is disapointing to average MAL user. The score is fair to these people. |
