I am someone who played the mobile game of Princess Connect! Re:Dive ever since it was released back in 2018 and I absolutely had a blast going through its magnificent storyline and set of characters. So when I first saw the anime adaptation getting announced, I was pretty excited to see it and it delivered pretty well.

First off, the story. The anime's story (season 1) is entirely different from the game and it's a good thing. People who played the game and those who can understand what's going on are the ones who would most likely appreciate it but it can also be appreciated by ... those who are still getting on to the series, especially if they give it a chance and time. The story revolves around Yuuki and his guild, Bishokuden and we see how they go about their daily lives as the anime introduces new characters with a bit of foreshadowing time to time. I'm pretty sure the adaptation of the game is just meant to introduce the characters and the world of Astrum and that, they delivered nicely. It reminded me of KonoSuba more importantly and that makes it pretty enjoyable.

For the art, I give it a hands down 10/10 simply because Cygames is very consistent with the great quality of art it has given both in the game and the anime itself.

In regards to the voice acting, the voice actors and music are all pretty good. It is honestly what I loved about the series, seeing my favorite voice actors on almost all of the characters as I recognize their voices, and more importantly, they are the ones who sing the songs of this series so that is also a big plus.

For the character, I am a tiny bit disappointed that there are too many characters they decided to introduce that average people might not remember easily. Aside from that, I am very happy with it, especially regarding the main character, Yuuki because I barely hear him speak in the game so hearing him talk a lot in the anime was very satisfying to hear.

Overall, I think the anime adaptation of Princess Connect! Re:Dive is pretty good and I am very much more excited to see what they will show in the future given that Season 2 has been announced. I am urging people to give this anime a chance at least and not drop it immediately just because the characters are still being introduced and the plot isn't really anything "special", yet. I just believe getting to know the characters first is all part of Cygames' plan. I've been at the end of the road to know what comes in the future of this great series so I am confident to say you won't regret it.
