Another anime ruined be its ending. I am very picky, even small things can ruin my mood. This ending definitely ruined the enjoyment for me. Was expecting an ending more like the one in fight club and not a wimpy nonsensical melodramatic wannabe happy one.
Story:
The story in a way is the embodiment of a shapeshifter transposed into the plot of a series. Interesting in itself, but as a result it's creepy and unenjoyable.
So it first starts of as a nice mystery anime, with murder solving elements, although a bit awkwardly exaggerated it was still great and from the first episode on i only expected it
...
to be a mix of horror and detective crime solving anime. Would have been truly awesome.
However the 2nd or 3rd episode, not sure which, starts a bit comical with a guy wearing a bag over his head. I thought it sure adds a bit more excitement to the anime, even if it's not what i had expected it's deviating from a monotonous linear genre driven story. Unfortunately that line deviating from horror/crime solving towards comedy runs all over the place. It makes you wonder if the author threw a dice to see what genre it should intersect next.
From there on it swings even more chaotically. Unfortunately the ending crash lands the plot into a dumpster with the most putrid, rancid and nausea inducing pile of decaying matter you could imagine.
Character:
Sure the mc being a cross dresser was funny, especially since he was so excited about it. His friend showing strange feeling towards him was odd but intended to be comical.
Aekichi seemed to be rather odd. At first he is supposedly the genius detective, always invoking cold thinking and a cold heart too. He can solve about any crime effortlessly and emotionally detached, not really caring about who dies or lives, but just about solving crimes for fun. By the end of the show however he pulls a 180 and becomes an hyper emotional slut that wants to save the world and his best childhood buddy.
A lot of the characters and their actions don't make sense. Those that do make sense are a bit shallow.
Wish they would explain Aekichi's girlfriend who sits behind bars. Why is she tied up with strings and why are her ogres escaping later on, or how are the even escaping. Nasty plot hole, seriously.
Art:
I liked the art a lot. If it weren't for the blanked out characters it would have been perfect.
Sound:
eh? not sure what to say about it, the OP/ED theme was crap
Enjoyment:
I did find the anime interesting enough to watch it in one go, but seeing it intentionally sabotaged and destroyed like a plane flown into a skyscraper, it only left me irritated at the end. Yes, it was exactly that depressing. The only thing missing to completely ruin the enjoyment is to have the creator jump from a building and live streaming the event ...
If you want a clear picture of this anime, then imagine drawing a line from point A to point B. Before getting to point B you will move your pen in all directions as chaotically as possible and then only reach point B. That is exactly how this anime is in it's entirety.

It starts out well and extremely promising, although it's based at first on a simple idea.
So the first episode i would rate on it's on a clean spotless shinning impeccable 10. Job well done there.
But then there is a random yandere grill popping in with her friendly basement dork friend who ruin the day of the main character and the worth of continuing to watch the anime. So i continued watching in the hopes that the main character would come back to "life" and be once more exciting to watch how he goes through exciting adventures of great deeds.
I liked the art, it's not perfect,
...
but it's alright > okeyish no doubt there.
Sound was a bit irritating at times due to the squeaky voices of some characters and nonsense that was poured into the show.
Characters and character development all went downhill, as there is a complete difference from what went on in the first episode and every episode after that.
Enjoyment wasn't there after the first episode, but i was very curious to know what happens and how it's going to end so i kept watching.
So basically the yandere grill ruins the main character's relation with the school's alpha bitch, just so she (the yandere grill) could have him. Hell, he even looses all his memories. Really fucked up anime to be honest and that's not because of the killings and blood, you can see that on the news all day, it's part of your world, therefore you shouldn't rant it's abnormal unless you actually do something about it, which you obviously don't since you waste time checking for conformist reviews.

more like pimplord ...
It's exactly like watching the super powerful dungeon boss of an RPG go out of his dungeon and stomp all the fucking noobs and scrubs he comes across + occasionally impressing them
I enjoyed the anime just because of that.
There are some nice characters in there and great atmosphere overall.
Characters were both intriguing and interesting. The one thing i didn't like about the show is how the main character is a skeleton and the prime demonic slut fighting on his side was totally into him, making this a bit too necrophiliac for my taste.
The annoying bit about this story is how it abruptly
...
ends, without offering any explanation who the big dreadful opponent even is. You just get a vague idea it might be a group of people, however i am still not sure that's the case although i've watched the entire thing. So it really leaves you confused in that regard.
Totally liked it and watched it one go and i do recommend it wholeheartedly.

Sotry is actually very diluted in this one, so there isn't much to it and a one line spoiler for the whole first 14 episodes is easy to produce, simply because NOTHING HAPPENS most of the time. The rest of the time something almost happens and on very rare occasions something finally does actually somehow happen, miraculously considering the show is done in such a way as prevent anything from ever happening and to drag it on for all eternity.
Art
i used to really like the art when i was a little kid.
Sound
they really need to improve it after all these years ...
Character
the show ruins even
...
memorable characters like goku
enjoyment
0, zero, absolutely boring
Overall
try skipping through it instead of standing there staring at the screen watching a plot unfold in a similar way paint dries ... i am sure you got better things to do with your life

A fairly decent anime. It starts out very well and the events match the title, however as it goes on there is an odd way of revealing some human experiments, altered humans and by the time you are clearly told this it's too late as by then you see some odd superhuman movements from the main characters and you wonder what the hell is up with that.
I was wondering if this is an anime that is like durara or like gungrave or something else. It was really hard to figure out what the story had in mind and it would been much better if it
...
would have been made clearer at a much earlier point in the anime that there are characters which are part of a human experiment and their impact on the world aren't just mere exaggerations of the anime, which actually very common in animes.
Story:
The story was a huge let down, although it started very promising and although it's not a cup of sun shine it still had the potential to shine with a nice 10, regardless of the ending. However there are just random characters showing up to then show off during battles and basically everyone is just dicking around and acting cool. This is a good way to trash a story and ruin a good plot, turn it into a pile of vomited events (and no i am not talking about the flashbacks). The random introductions of super powers and greater super powers and then random unnecessary uninteresting villians just to have a reason to continue the story makes it a bit irritating.
Characters:
What made me keep watching were the characters. The earlier characters the series start with are actually interesting. But then as the story goes on either cannon fodder or overhyped characters are being introduced.
By cannon fodder i mean doug, the 21 year old dual wielding sword master. His eyes are a bit too moe style for this anime and i understand he just didn't grow tall, but his appearance hurts the anime and prevents you from taking it serious. It looks more like the annoying brat that ditched school, decides to act cool and dances in front of the traffic, nearly getting hit by a car. Glad it dies in the anime.
The exaggerated and overhyped characters of this anime don't even get a proper fight. They just have godly plot armor, which is really irritating. What really ruins these sort of characters even more is the fact that two of them are lesbians, unrealistic lesbians on top of that. The issue with them being lesbians is the fact that they are lesbians just for the sake of gaining few extra pubertant fans who are still completely unfamiliar with girls. Yes, exactly, they are lesbians for the sake of those weird fetishists who watch shows just because of it, just to keep those creeps watching. Absolutely sexist and disgusting move by the plot writer.
The memorable characters are the one eyed blondie, the guy who talks with his neck coz he is deaf and never learned to talk and your daily backstreet prostitute singing on the sidewalk (alex). These get good development and decent backstories. The characters have depth and aren't there just for show, but neither are they shallow anime figurinjes that just act up and get overhyped. Overall about any earlier character is pleasent, especially when you compare them to the ones introduced later on. The cop at the police station and even the old baba selling cigars. The nurse and the doctor were also great characters, although a bit odd.
They later introduce a 10 year old and that's about when the character palette really gets trashed and crapped upon. It's a little boy with superhuman strength that effortlessly matches that of super human adults. Sure he is part of a special breed of superhuman adults that lack some of the downsides, but he can still match adults that are part of the same special breed ... wtf? It's just a physical imposibility, lower force doesn't match greater force. Simple. It's like the anime is testing you and asking you constantly the question: "ok how about we introduce this shit, are you still going to watch this nasty crap, although it started out so well?" Well unfortunately i did, just as i did with so many crappy animes.
Now last but not least, examples of how characters also get ruined later on. So the one eyed blondie makes a joke about the backstreet prostitute and she slaps him for that. It is absolutely out of character considering what went on early in the show.
Early on the alpha male lesbian that is captain of one of the region in town, gets angry and punishes two characters just for fighting. However later on when half the city starts to fall apart and burn in flames, she isn't phased and wants to let someone else do the fighting. Not even her beta lesbian friend will jump into the fight although the beta lesbian has fought on countless occasions before that. Unrealistic lesbos btw, considering how they hoard man like nymphomanic sluts ... i dunno what you think, but girls who suck that many cocks can't be gay.
Art:
The art might not be liked by everyone. Personally i liked it, most of it anyways with few exceptions. Great art.
Sound:
I really didn't like the opening/ending songs. Totally garbage. But aside from that i did like the sound quality.
Enjoyment:
I enjoyed watching the first few introduced characters, which became the ones i sympathized with, go through their daily life. And that's about the only reason i kept watching.
I found the non-talkative, throat voice guy very interesting character. It seems he never got messed up, his super strength is even revealed to be due to an overdose on drugs, which actually makes him more interesting.
