Can I truly recommend this after watching it all the way through?
Yes I think so. The main reason is that it strikes at the heart of what makes a good romance anime, relationships.

I truly think this show has incredible design when it comes to the characters and their individuality. Sometimes it feels a little too predictable how each character will react to a situation, but that's both a good and bad thing. I really love some characters and hate others. I can't agree with the plot whatsoever, but having characters I really like and characters I really hate on screen makes watching it a lot ... of fun.

There were times when a character would act just like my friends in real life, especially those in relationships. It seemed almost verbatim, like the author wrote down conversations from his own friends and put them into the show. At times it feels highly realistic and the characters truly feel present and human.
I wish we could have seen more character development in other characters but in the grand scheme of things there just weren't enough episodes for that.

This anime has a heartwarming college campus appeal and feels quite relatable to college life. Although it's not the main focus, it naturally fits as a college relationship anime. The way it portrays friendships, struggles, and romance within that setting feels authentic and engaging.

Man I hate Linda... but that's a good thing. I think shows shouldn't shy away from making you hate characters, especially this kind of show. Trying to avoid spoilers, it makes sense that a character who neglects their high school friend without taking responsibility... yada yada yada... I understand that wasn't this show's main purpose but I still think that was a gold mine left untapped. Also hate ghost Banri... Love Koko, sometimes... Love Oka for sure.

At the end there were many things I didn't understand or even want to. It just seemed like straight up sloppy writing in my books but that just makes me think this is the kind of show you watch and enjoy every episode of because of the complex nature of every character and each relationship between all the other characters.

8/10... This show's characters carry. I don't like the plot at all. Artstyle is super fun. Rewatchable... probably. Would I watch a sequel... yeah for sure. I'm curious what they could do if given a proper plot. Openings are very tied into the anime... not bangers per se but pretty cool cinematics. Decent hook on the first or second episode... not the greatest not the worst. No loose ties at the end... not really sad or happy... just is for me. Would recommend for romance squad... not for the normal person or the action packed anime watcher. Again this anime is highly relationship oriented... people who prefer something going on every second might be able to find something in this but this isn't a quick paced show at all... characters need time to build up relationships.

Final question, and probably the most important on my list of questions for rating... can anyone get something out of this show? I for sure think so! It is fun to watch! Exciting! But also has a lot of drama-filled moments and also gets you to think about your own life and how you would react in those situations! I would totally 1000000% recommend this anime to couples! It definitely is a bonding show for sure with plenty of laughs! You can take my word on that! Otherwise, for you general anime watchers, this show carries some love for you too!

This show Golden Time, had high moments and low moments. The navigation of relationship challenges between friends and lovers really is done super well. The plot line is really rough but I don't think that the intention of the author of this show was for the main moral of the story to come from a complex narrative but rather complex characters. Life's challenging and it's good to have people by your side whom you can rely on but also having friends by your side can make any experience that much better. Although I still think the guys are done dirty in this show and I won't elaborate! Watch the show! Or don't, it's not a big deal to me.

Code Geass throws you into a wild world ruled by hierarchy and raw power, where every move is about who holds the upper hand.

The plot is insanely well thought out, with twists that keep you hooked from the get-go. Every little detail seems carefully placed to keep you guessing, and the way the story unfolds is as satisfying as biting into a perfectly crunchy chocolate chip cookie.

Every character is like a key puzzle piece, each adding something unique to the overall picture. No one is just there for filler, everyone plays an important role in making the story feel rich and dynamic.

Visually, ... this show is a knockout. The art style is sharp and memorable, and every scene pops with detail. It’s clear a lot of love and effort went into every frame, making it easy to get lost in its beautifully drawn world.

At the heart of it all is Lelouch Lamperouge, a character who embodies the ultimate "man with a plan." His struggles, his victories, and his brilliant strategies make his journey truly unforgettable. He outsmarts his enemies at every turn, and that makes watching him a real thrill.

The series isn’t afraid to tackle some heavy themes, like revenge and the harsh reality of racism, especially against Japanese people. These elements add a raw edge to the story, making it as thought provoking as it is action packed.

Every action scene feels purposeful, each one driving the plot forward and ramping up the tension like a sweet burst of candy. It’s a rollercoaster where every moment counts, and nothing feels wasted or out of place.

Overall, Code Geass nails it with its blend of solid characters, a gripping plot, immersive world-building, and jaw dropping twists. It’s one of those rare animes that grabs you and never lets go definitely one of the greatest of all time in my book.

"Shuumatsu Nani Shitemasu ka? Isogashii desu ka? Sukutte Moratte Ii desu ka?" is a breathtaking journey into a world that balances delicate storytelling with mesmerizing visuals. From the very beginning, the series invites you to explore a universe where every scene is imbued with quiet wonder and thoughtful detail.

The animation stands out as a true masterpiece. Each frame is crafted with meticulous care, displaying a vibrant color palette and soft lines that give the artwork a dream-like quality. It’s as if every scene is a painting, inviting you to pause and appreciate the beauty of the moment.

The series excels in its world-building, gradually revealing a ... richly layered environment. In just a few episodes, you come to understand the intricate setting, where every corner of the backdrop contributes to the overall narrative. The carefully designed world feels both vast and intimate, a place where every detail has its own story.

Character development is at the heart of the anime. Each character is drawn with a clarity that allows their personalities and struggles to shine through. Their evolution is handled with sensitivity, making even the quietest moments resonate with emotional depth.

Interpersonal relationships are portrayed with subtlety and grace. The bonds between characters are not only pivotal to the storyline but also add a profound human element. These interactions feel genuine and are layered with a complexity that reflects the real-world tapestry of emotions.

Complementing the visual and narrative finesse is a thoughtfully composed soundtrack. The music, interwoven with moments of silence, underscores the mood perfectly—balancing melancholy with hope. This careful sound design elevates the emotional impact, drawing you deeper into the anime’s soulful ambiance.

Overall, the anime stands as a testament to the art of storytelling, blending exquisite visuals with a rich, introspective narrative. It is an experience that leaves you both awestruck and contemplative, a true gem that resonates long after the final episode fades to black.

-"O Cursed Spite."
What a beautiful anime to have been born to witness. I've seen the whole show twice over and am engrossed in the film's creative genius. As far as anime go, this one has quite the most unique story I've seen in a very long time. The character relationships are geniune, they feel like real live characters, the voice acting is so special and powerful. When I think of brotherhood I will now think of the bond that Mahiro and Yoshino have.
For this anime it feels like its separated into two parts, the first being a on the road type of vibe, the ... characters are traveling and going around Japan. It's beautifully done how it builds the characters personalities as well as flashbacks to Aika's story. The first episode can be kind of confusing but it all makes sense in the end as well as building up. I think what makes this anime shine the most is exactly how much the pieces fit together. I think this anime is perfect in the delivery of a story that it was trying to tell. Does it have minute flaws, probably, but I'd say that a 10 out of 10 anime is a story which delivers with the perfect set of suspense, creativity, and wonder. I think that blast of tempest fits its own narrative by sticking to the Shakesperian aspects of the cast, it builds in and of itself telling a story within a story while also pulling you along its complex and intriguing plot. This is what an anime should be. It has the perfect amount of Character design, Plot twists, and dialogue. The story is not slow it is at a perfect pace, I have no arguments to be made against watching this anime it's goated frfr.
-" I loved Ophelia: forty thousand brothers
Could not, with all their quantity of love,
Make up my sum."

FLCL is a hidden masterpiece. To some the anime will strike significantly and to others it might not make it there. This show is insanely go with the flowy, it has great music and honestly really good characters despite the awkwardness of the introductions. We see character developement and plots unfolding. Sometimes an anime that doesn't make sense doesn't really need to in order to shine, sometimes it just shines and then we make sense of it.

The art style is pretty unique and fun. I think for the most part a large majority of people are likely to enjoy this show in general but ... there is still that unique concept that FLCL gets right that I think goes past some people. You'll just have to see for yourself where it takes you.

This is a really, REALLY good show. Like one of the best of the decade for sure. It is so calming and absolutely stunning. I think that it hold up in the iyashikei genre as one of THE best combinations of storytelling, character development, and pacing. Each episode is a masterpiece, and the progression of how each episode comes together to tell such a familiar yet unique story really impacts me as a viewer. I do think that this is "the" anime, it has that feel to it where everything comes together so divinely to have the full package anyone could ask for in an ... anime; fantasy, action, animation, story, etc. The characters feel realistic and not overly sexual in any sense, they are all loveable and the beauty is that they are just people, no one has an unlikeable personality. The animation studio really delivered a blessing unto this world with this one.

I think it goes without saying that Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is extremely well received and extremely well put together. I think that this one of the anime's I would say is the epitome of the word anime. I think there are only three animes that I say have that feel; code geass, fullmetal alchemist, and frieren beyond journey's end. These three animes have the full package of fantasy, action, adventure, and stunning animation. But for fullmetal alchemist I think what makes it stand out is just how deep the story goes, not a single episode feels like the story has slowed down and every episode ... is a masterpiece in and of itself. Brotherhood is one of the greatest of all time for sure.

What is the number one anime of all time? I'm sure there are lots of options to choose from. Fullmetal alchemist, Attack on Titan, Demon slayer. All of these are great points and I would definitely not disagree with anyone who likes them as their favorite of all time. Trigun has a special place in my heart I can say that the storytelling is absolutely phenomenal. I am in love with all the characters the story feels so passionate and interesting that I really want to get to know more about the characters. When I first watched trigun I was enveloped in the dystopian world ... with gunslinging and funny cliches. This show is an absolute blast. Not the new one that came out that's 3d though, Not a fan of that one. But overall, I'd say Trigun is one of my favorites. Top 5 for sure. The movie badlands is also great too 1000% worth the watch.
