Report FinnDevitt's Profile

Anime is very similar to Professional Wrestling.

Both feature over the top characters aiming to provide great entertainment to the audience.

Thus, I will be judging my Anime in relation to Professional Wrestling experiences.

The Art and Sound relate to the Entrances and Theme Songs of the wrestlers. Like Anime, wrestlers can either take a minimalist approach (Katsuyori Shibata) or a bombastic one (Shinsuke Nakamura).

The Characters these wrestlers portray, the Stories they tell in-ring and last but not least, the Enjoyment they bring to the audience are the essence of Professional Wrestling. Do these three well and one is on his way to stratospheric success. Just ask my favourite wrestler Finn Balor, who broke a ceiling doing what he loves.

With the latter elements being more integral than the former, it is no surprise that Character, Story and Enjoyment account for 75% of my personal rating while Art and Sound account for 25%.
