Although this is kinda early for a review, I figured I would put this out -share my opinion on this show- and help most of you understand what this anime portays,pursues and has achieved so far. As you can see I followed the 3 ep rule ,so I should not be so far of :)
Story: 7
I would like to note that I have NOT watched any of the Blade Runner movies nor have I played the games, so my opinion is 100% formed off of this show and is as virgin,pure and fresh as it could be . Having that said, the story
...
really made me consolidate my personal view,it heavely attached me to it and it trapped my inside it ,like it a trap in a trap. However we are never trapped unless we choose to be. And I can not say that I was forced to either....
Art: 9
Generally, art is always interwoven with animation and my score now,is based off of both . Just by having watched a single trailer I knew what I was getting myself into. The camera placements,its corectly timed rattling,slow and inert movements,the flawless character designs that unexpressingly depict a lot, the alive audivisual frontloading just by how real it looks, the proper layred color gradients that managed to illustrate the pursued (fear,pessimism,robotic feelings,the mordernized "mob",that force you to think philosophically and think about the "why",the "how" and the "what is ") etc. Honestly I do not even think that it could get better! Not because it couldn't, but because there would not be anything more to get better at!
Sound: 10
FINNALY, my favorite aspect of this show! Without any excessions,despite being hated for "not matching with Blade Runner's movies atmosphere" ,the japanese voice acting (I only watched it in sub),the environmental acoustic background and ESPECIALLY the soundtracks,including the intro and the outro,are unequiovocally not only the best part of this show, BUT ALSO of any other show that I have seen this whole entire year -personally always talking- ! And I will also prove that right now. Just open your youtube, type X Ambassadors - Water or Feel you now , and then ..well then ..then I'll say your are welcome :)
Character: 7
As I previously mentioned ,writing a review this early means that you won't be able to denote your view on certain things ,since you won't know much about them . One of those things is , of course the character segment. However, I can say withoout any doubt or excessions that the illustrated characters so far have not only surpassed my expectations for them but have also suprisingly enough ( with only 3 eps watched) made me sentimentaly attached to them...*most of them! XD
Enoyment: 7
Personally, this segment is heavily interwoven with my feelings and view about the Art and Sound segment,since my personal enjoyment has always been reliant on them. And since my opinion about them is positive,consequently so is my general enjoyment. I loved the musical aspects of the anime and its outstandingly superb animation . As a ramification not only did I fall in love with Blade Runner: Black Lotus as a show but hopefully I will be looking out for its movies while substantially being influenced by it.
Overall: 8
As you stroll through the inexhaustible sources of online pages you will surely encounter something that "catches your eye" .That fills it up with that ineffable color gradient that even you can not imagine you had. That gently tears apart any other entertaining thought of yours... beacuse it was simply too good not to care about. In my case "my eye" got trapped in the nets of this,quintessential and superb show ... BR:Black Lotus. Long story short, I strongly believe that everyone should go ahead and give this show at least a try and I am sure they will find at least one of its features interesting. Black lotus excels at one thing while being Dom1nant on another....Long story shorter :) ....this series has lots of icing ...and lots of cake!
