When you step into minefield and start playing game that involves huge pain and efforts can you push through?
This will be my first manga review.
Tobaku Datenroku Kaiji, or commonly known as Kaiji Part 3, which gives basic setting for Kaiji series and goes many uncertain roads, which in the end don't save it from falling to be one hell of a gambling arc. It's not certainly bad but it's don't give that Kaiji feel we can sense when reading through series.
Story - 7
Story is OK, I would say not the best ones out there. It's really slow paced one. They dragged so
...
many things when they just could had ended things with one time. However, in the end it's basic Kaiji story you can enjoy it some but less than other series.
One point it felt like I was sitting in a empty room with mahjong tiles going all around my head and spinning endlessly. That's great way to describe it's story.
Art - 10
I really like overall art in Kaiji series and people who say it's just bad looking and don't feel like same when you read those other manga series. I can understand not many people will desire this kind of art style but it's something so unique from many different manga's and author has found his own way to make art look his own and putting own elements in.
Art gives really meaning for that Kaiji is definitely dark and psychological series. You will notice this when you start seeing that art. It's so flashy and all those effects with bold underlines will just make it so dark and evil it's just incredible how author managed something like that. This kind of art style combined with story is like putting 2 pieces together.
Characters - 8
I think some of characters were a bit too dramatic in some scenes and President was just horrible with his whining and playing bad guy. Still his atmosphere were freaking scary, almost like those clowns in some horror movies. I still think his character development was bad, it's miss but can't help it.
Kaiji overall amazed with his reasoning, but his character development stayed in same level like in other series. He wasn't too brave or too coward but something more interesting, he was gambler without understanding golden rules of gambling until the end.
All other characters, expect one were almost same kind of greed mindset overall whole manga. It would been better if they have could shown some new sides of them.
Enjoyment - 7
I enjoyed this manga some of but not so much that I could give it higher scores. It's really decent, but nothing so awesome. Still, kaiji fans either like it or hate it, most of fans have hate it. I think it's decent, because it changes storytelling and whole setting upside down overall.
Overall - 7
Overall Part 3 manages to lose something dear to other series and falls to bottomless end. It's balance is very low and you can not think enough why they made this manga while there is only 1 same arc.
Despite this Kaiji is still number 1 leading gambling manga and this gives also some hope for series to be remain in that position, but this was like hit and miss situation kind of like in gamble. You get something and you lose something it's a DRAW!

You don't always get to see wonderful saga and also story that is so thrilling and leave you with high expects, Welcome To Evangelion 2.0. It continues Evangelion origiinal story with even more little crazy stuff included in it and recaps these episode 8-19
Story - 9
Plot is generously maintained, and new things are unfolded with carefulness. there is actually many changes even this is another recap movie. Now it also has some horror aspects too. It's paced differently like first rebuild movie was paced quicker these has medium pace in it. Another cool thing, which really was nice bonus to story, were that some
...
people talked in English in this movie also. It definitely made clear that EVA is international phenomenon.
Art - 10
Like in first rebuild movie, this one goes same path but with more detailed backgrounds and realistic landscapes. Not to mention, that eye candy HD with beautifully animated scenes. CG is used wisely with scenes and not to make it look bad either.
Weapons like A.T Field's are more colorful than ever and remodelling some old angels with new designs and symbols that just makes art so unique. Also effects like lasers, flashes, energy balls look really good with various colors they're mixing them with. Finally, all that gory blood really looks like real blood and that's a bit scary part o.O
Sound - 9
These movie seems to use a way more different music choices than in previous rebirth and old movies. It's good still but some scenes they played a little weird music. Choristers are still wonderful and is one of the point that need to be in to make it Evangelion. They used again Utada Hikaru's ending theme Beautiful World, what could be better way to describe it than with this song :)
The Characters - 9
So let's see characters... First, thing I noticed was Rei talks a lot more and it's not so shy anymore, like she was in Tv-Series. Also Gendo seems to only talking less in each movie haha.
Another person who is changed is Asuka, she isn't so angry anymore with Shinji, but actually tries to make "friendship" kind of deal with him.
Kaji seemed to be getting most of screen-time here. It's good thing because he didn't show up in first movie at all.
The one, who however impressed me were Shinj. I mean his like made into different person and he thinks like different way now, You don't see him crying anymore and even noticing "crybaby" status on him. Which is also nice built up for his character.
Now, here is couple of questions: Why didn't they made Shinji like that in Tv-series? was it just to try to prove his status as coward or loser who couldn't solve meaning of his life, or was it because he wasn't ready for it yet, not until right time came for and they changed it in his design and personality.
The new character they introduced us, Mari is sweet and kind girl who made big impact in this movie, even she was only support character. Still his influence I could definitely see it, and she made her character to shine.
Voice Actor - 10
Definitely, all Voice actors did really good job with this movie, especially Mari's voice actor. You could definitely see that she enjoyed her role in EVA 2.0. Another one that impressed me again, was Shinji's voice actor. OMG! those screams and reactions he get's out with his voice, that's just amazing.
Enjoyment - 10
I really loved this movie, it made me feel important and it had just high impact of emotions driven through me. Definitely another masterpiece movie that EVA series has to offer. Highly recommend this movie also for EVA and Sci-Fi fans, or all who wanna get awesome impact through emotions, action and stunning visuals.
Overall - 10
Overall 2.0 does everything even better than 1.0 did. Story is now maintained and pace is fixed, but best part is that EVA will be always remembered in our world, and it's thanks to creator and the fans too.

If you are only one who can save mankind could you save it?
Evangelion: 1.0 is update version for TV-series and previous movies , it's start of new EVA series that includes also 3 other movies too. Even this movie recaps some stuff, there is some new stuff to also look.
Story - 9
It's still same enjoyable Evangelion story with some plot twist changes, and it's still has deep and psychological moments in it.
I think honestly this story explained much more, than original 1-6 episodes did, which these movie was based. I liked it also that's why a lot more.
Pacing was maybe little too quick, but I
...
don't think it was problem, because it was meant to be recap movie overall.
Art - 10
DAMN! Is this really Evangelion what I saw o.o animation made like huge changes from SD to HD quality.
It's beautifully detailed EVA's with Neon colors added, and it made nice color splash with bright and soft colors. It also used nice reflecting effect and some light flashes.
I liked a lot how they made flashbacks look, but major changes were seen in Angels. 3th Angel looked actually scarier than in Tv-Series , but 6th Angel was just creative work they used for updating his model. That design, OMG it was so awesome. Those were mostly cold colors but that blue ice colors gotta love it.
Not so much impact with bombs but smoke effect were also nice bonus. I also think background art will also get's mentioned here, It's just superb.
Sound - 10
Music also had major improvements, like instruments updated with live music it sounded more clearer and nicer too.
However I kind of liked that old battle theme they had with original Tv-Series I didn't so much liked this new one. But other than that it was great listening experience.
Ending theme was also enjoyable, because it describes this movie really well with words that it has to offer. Kind of catchy song I would have to say, and nicely paced with drums.
The Characters - 8
The Characters maintained it original position, like they should be in EVA series. There wasn't any major happenings with them. But I noticed that Gendo was maybe a little more kind, than he was in Tv-Series.
Also, if people says Shinji is whining crybaby in Tv-Series, I would say that he wasn't so crybaby in this one all the time. Of course he had still hard time and problems, but still maintained his position well.
Enjoyment - 10
Have to say I really enjoyed this movie. It gives nice atmosphere for viewer and, also explains some stuff better than what Tv-series did. And who wouldn't liked those stunning effects, which they totally delivered and emotional music.
Overall - 10
Overall Evangelion 1.0 is nice rebirth for EVA series, and with it's updated concept it promises to deliver those same EVA moments, but with even better than usually. It's definitely can make series feel uneasy after those changes, and also give some new hope for upcoming movies.

If you think you had seen everything guess again...
End Of Evangelion continues from previous rebirth movie. It's direct sequel to it. Only this time viewer get's to see different perspective to story. They still havent forget psychological stuff and it's still a lot of tricks to play with your mind. They made some critical changes for the movie and that's why probably creator got so much hate mails. Still this movie has suprised many movie critics and I am no different. It's pretty amazing movie.
Story - 9
Like I already mentioned story had some dramatical changes they made. It's more action based now and there is
...
a much less dialog than Tv-series had. It's still however enjoyable story like Tv-series were. It's explaining some stuff clearly but still make you think like: what just happened O_O
Art - 9
Art looks much better than in Tv-series and in Rebirth movie. Animation is no different either it's beautiful and it's definitely brighter and they add many visual stuff like light flares. NERV HQ looked very Sci-Fi styled fortress. I also noticed they changed spinning camera angle too which was good thing. Weapons sound like they should be and effects are still amazing even it's 90's movie. It's doesn't seem to be problem. EVA's were frightening but there really wasn't seem to be any horror elements this time included.
Music - 10
Let me say this movie had so emotional and wonderful music they played throught dramatical scenes. The music that most got me feel emotional were theme called Thanatos. This theme it's reminded me of while watching another anime called Bleach. It has even one same part that sounds excatly same. It's very deep and sad song. However it also makea believe that there is still hope to believe for good things to happen. Song uses series mix of Jazz and bass. while playing electric piano in the backgrounds. Good choice made for this movie. It's definitely wakes up people's emotions and feelings.
The Characters -8
The Characters are still typical NGE characters. I noticed that Shinji is even more bad and mood which still appears in his personality through out the movie. They left some characters out from the movie. Still characters emotions and reactions seems getting through message for people. Not so much change in their designs.
Enjoyment - 9
I really enjoyed this movie it's definitely one of the movie masterpieces for art they use creatively in this movie. And for that realistic picture. I highly recommrnd this movie for anybody and mostly people that want great story. emotional characters and even breathtaking music. And of course without forgetting all NGE and Sci-Fi fans out there. You should definitely watch this masterpiece.
Overall - 9
Overall End of Evangelion delivers with wonderful music and reactions that it gives for people. It's gives confused but great alternative closure for Tv-Series without forgetting it's psychological aspects and mixing them with action.

When you step into someone's mind and notice you are also becoming one with that people what will you do?
Neon Genesis Evangelion. It's name everyone should know. This series is really popular in all over world. It's praised by many people and also same time hated by many people it's maintaining these things equally.
Creator Hideki Anno didn't actually wanted people to enjoy this series at first place and how could really anyone enjoy it if creator is having psychological issues himself when he was making this series. That's why there are many versions so everyone could be happy and get story they want.
I wont mention
...
any spoiler stuff because there is all ready many good reviews of this series and they explain all really well.
The thing is that what Evangelion do unique way is storytelling actually putting people to think everything about themselves, The World, Life, Society, Mankind and even Gods. It solves many riddles but still left too many questions to unanswered.
Story - 9
Evangelion story is really complex and deep but it's made some sense to me. I wasn't really expecting so complex story even I knew this was psychological show. Stil it's breathtaking and does job well until 2nd part starts where series take turns and true nature becomes showing to people. It's unique story cause many anime's don't tell this kind of story like way Evangelion presents it.
Art - 10
Even this anime is made 1995 it's look really beautiful and they must been watching Dragon Ball Z because animation looks like that. It's bit oldish but nothing is too bright or too dark.
EVA's look really detailed and their moving is just amazing to watch. Camera view is also pretty unique in this anime. It's not typical chancing next scene but it actually spinning through out series.
Big fancy font's they go nicely with psychology stuff included in episode title texts. And symbolism even this wasn't never to mean anything it gave series many meanings still. Oh and those final episode that crowned everything. Pretty interesting way to animate scenes.
Music - 10
Evangelion has so great music collections found. that I was just feeling those tunes in anime. Without music battle scenes would look boring but with music they really came to live. There were some music that had weird place in scenes but still many great choices and interacting with symbolism.
Main theme is like mix of maracas, trumpets and jazz. it starts with slow and quickly changes form to quck in middle way. Shiro Sagisu is really great music composer I really like his music it fit into series really well. Ending theme had nicely dynamic theme and moon reflection I think it's unique concept showing ending and always different tempo in each episode.
Effects - 10
Even this is 1995 anime it's not definitely showing in effects. bombs, flashes sounds like they should be. Also environment like rain, and when cascades makes sounds it's almost like in Higurashi. Which means they really delivered with effects. Just amazing stuff.
Voice Acting - 10
I liked all voices too be honest I first hated Shinji's voice it was too deep and it just gave me headache to listen it. But later his voice turned well and I began to like it. Overall all characters especially Rei's voice actor did awesome work. They really felt characters and learned them. And also learn how to use own voice to deliver nice viewing and hearing experiences to audience.
The Characters - 10
These is one of the best shows that character development is taking seriously and I mean really seriously. Every characters story is really deep and depressing stuff to see but it really shows how much they progress through out series. And almost every important character get's own past story to maximum own character development. But there is one character that get's most of it and it's none other than Shinji.
Shinji's role in Evangelion is so huge and everything that happens with his character shows in his character personally perfectly. He progress nicely through out series and viewer get's to see how Shinji will do in his journey to clear his mind of things that he is thinking particularly. And that's why Shinji is really different from Shonen characters like Naruto or Ichigo. That's why he is unique character and overall critical point understanding whole plot in the series. But I would say all characters are just as important like Shinji. Everyone share same feelings and emotions.
Enjoyment - 9
I really did enjoy Evangelion. This wasn't first anime I watched and noticed you really need to think a lot but it was first anime that mentioned psychology really well in form and all important stuff that is needed to survive in world. Personally I would wanted to know what really happened into plot but it's nice they make movies to get everyone clear picture what happened in it.
Overall - 9
Evangelion is anime that is setting your mind in thinking mode and let's you form own image of the plot and characters how they relate to each others and it's let you feel these in your mind too. Maybe weird way to say but it's just goes deeply into person's mind and wants them to solve riddles that it will presents in anime.
Evangelion is series that everyone can sure relate to because it gives so realistic viewpoint of world and stuff. Of course many people may hate ending and I don't like it myself either because all that confusing stuff .But that's why they gave us choices movies and alternative way escaping that freaking mind game.
I highly recommend watching this series even if you're not psychological anime fan or dislike that genre. And all Sci-Fi people should watch this too.
Evangelion is and will always remembered in anime community it's not going to change and it's always going to be one of the anime series that lend people to psychological series and those aspects overall.

Fireflies mark happiness and wonderful times so if you see them remember to smile.
Grave Of The Fireflies is Studio Ghibli's Isao Takahata's first ever directed movie. It was actually in development same time when Miyazaki was making Totoro. So it's not actually difficult to question why would this film got so high results.
Movie is very touching and you would definitely feel sorrowful and a lot of unhappiness in this movie. But what Takahata really did was great perspective of the WW2 (World War II) in Japan that time. Movie describes really well that theme and shows what kind of life people needed to went through
...
when there wasn't enough food to share with everybody and airplanes were bombing villages and areas all the time. Now I don't believe Takahata invented this idea himself I believe that he was involved in WWII's times. That's why he got so direct perspective for this case.
Now let's go to main plot. First I don't think that ending was complete but it really describes how hard it's to survive in war. So I didn't like it very much. This is actually first time to me that I don't like my favorite film studio film's ending. Otherwise story was okay for me.
Story: 8/10
Art and usually animation in ghibli movies is fantastic and very beautiful scenary well this movie isn't expection either. Viewer get's to see beautiful scenary with interesting red and black effects used in somepoint of scenes. Also like many of us might know that Takahata is more realistic in art than Miyazaki so that's why he can get his own perspective to the art.
Art / Animation: 10/10
Sound and Music: Well as for music in this movie it was very sorrowful and happy sametime it's quite difficult to explain but it was like mixture between those. But it was very emotional too. And they used a lot of flute for music backgrounds. Ghibli movies never disappoint me with music.
Sound / Music: 10/10
The Characters act pretty realistic in these situation that movie has to offer. For example Seita is careful big brother and always check that his little sister is safe at least almost. He is very shy sometimes and also a closing person. But he really gives those realistic emotions and smiles too which is nice.
Although Seita is very good character Setsuko seems like spoiled brat in the movie. When not getting what she always wants and I have to say I didn't like her voice so much. When she was crying half of the movie. I understand situation in this movie but still. However because Seita was a little bit more enjoyable character than Setsuko I would give character designs.
The Characters and Design: 9/10
I would say you enjoy this movie or either hate ending part. However you will definitely feel sorrowfulness and sadness after watching this movie. Some people might also starts crying because it just give that kind of atmosphere for the viewer. It can also bring back people memories from war and all that sad stuff. Every person will react differently after seeing this movie.
Enjoyment: 8/10
Overall this movie is one of the Studio Ghibli's treassure movies that shares many different opinions and thoughts but it gives clear picture what kind of thing is war and how bad would things looked or would look in then. Still Ghibli gave movie wonderful heartbreaking story and succeed somehow with it.
My Overall Score: 8/10

When your inner self starts remembering past memories and those enjoyable times and can't just forget those lovely memories. Only Yesterday or japanese titled "Omohide poro poro" is touching movie for Isao Takahata. I watched this movie yesterday and I really loved it.
Story: - 10
Story is pretty simple and it's nice to follow because your hearing the story by narrator who is telling it for. Now why these story just drives in it's because you can easily relate to characters I am sure many of us has some or less school memories and other memories. Story is not boring at all it's starts with
...
slow pacing but picks up pacing pretty fast. Why I like this story so much is that it's gives 2 viewpoints adult's and child. It's also describing very well daily japanese high school life and shows what kind of life experiences Taeko has to go through.
Animation / Art: - 10
It's no actually suprise why Takahata got so well known after movie got good reviews for people. It's because Takahata's art style is simple and he has this own called realism world where everything he creates turns into realistic and beautiful art. Everything in this movie is made really realistic expect characters. But all the backgrounds are like they were shown into nature. Which is really impressive. I think I now know why Miyazaki left for the first screening without saying word to Takahata. Because he was so pissed that Takahata did found this inner realism world. Animation is actually pretty unique it's reminds me like old cartoons. You will be blown away with art style Takahata is created into this movie.
Music: - 10
Music in Only Yesterday is actually peaceful there is heard many type music like wonderful piano tunes and Hungarian farm music. Also I noticed there was a bit of latino music mixed with Spanish and Japanese music. The main theme of the movie is actually opera tune which gives nice atmosphere for the movie. Overall ghibli did good job with music only this time they didn't use so many musical instruments or themes.
Characters: - 9
Characters in this movie are drawn really well considering this was all hand made. They actually had emotional feelings and expressions so they could act for with feelings. There is many side characters which didn't got so much to be in screen all the time. It would be cool if these characters would appear a little more. Because Taeko's father motive where never really told. And mother and all the sisters where just like decorations in the film. However film was really focused in Taeko's both side which was greatly done.
Enjoyment: - 10
I was really whole time watching this movie and focusing all the stuff that was going on in the screen. There really wasn't time that I would felt like movie was boring no it's actually pretty interesting to see when people starts remembering old and good times. If you like romantic, imagination and magical stories and you are big Studio Ghibli fan I am pretty sure you enjoy this a lot.
Voice acting: - 9
I really thought voice acting was also one of the reasons why movie delivered all the fans wanted it to deliver. Even there where young children voicing characters they did pretty good job with the script. I really have to say I liked Taeko's younger voice better than her old voice. Because it was just so cute when she talked in her younger voice. Also she really does sounded like spoiled brat which was hilarious.
Overall: - 10
Only Yesterday is animation masterpiece from the old animator Isao Takahata from himself. He really get's people to also starts remembering their old memories and he can surely made great experiences with his skills. Takahata surely focused this movie a lot and hard job paid in the end.

The girl who was so cute that everyone looked him and said WHAT ARE YOU!!
So yeah I watched Ponyo and I think it's brilliant movie even though it's kid movie. It gives different view of child and adults point of view.
So let's go into review.
Story - 10 Even though Ponyo's story is maybe little childish and not for meant adults it's magical experience tied with comedy and huge adventure. The sea theme is pretty good in the movie. Also it nice Miyazaki took ideas from Little Mermaid and it's sure shows in the film. Ponyo could be also considered as romantic love story between
...
fish and boy but all in all I would say it's magical story with unknown adventures.
Art - 10 Miyazaki is really thought art of this movie sea looks really awesome in action and that shining effects into fish just love it. Overall even there was some CG used and not anymore hand drawings. It was nice to see he used crayons and many colors and created color of the worlds. Also characters were drawn well and places looked nice especially houses and boats.
Music - 10 Joe Hisaishi did it again with wonderful opera music and Ponyo's theme is really catchy one and I pretty much enjoyed with whole music concept in the movie.
Effects - 10 Effect were used nicely on the movie like bubbles sound and boat's horn. Also slime effects was funny to listen.
The Characters - 10 Seriously characters are just amazing in this movie I really like designs like Ponyo she is just so cute fish girl. And she is funny when she just runs all the time haha. Sosuke is also very gentleman for old people even though his kids. I like his brave and don't pretty much fear anything. Other characters were nice too. And I loved different personals they had.
Enjoyment - 10 Ponyo wasn't bad movie at all I pretty much sat and watched whole movie and enjoyed overall plot. Of course you have to remember this is kids movie and not made for adults but it can sure took whole another way and view of the movie. And pretty much I would say adults love this movie also because Ponyo is just so cute who wouldn't love her.
Overall - 10 Hayao Miyazaki never disappoints with his movie. They are full of adventures, interesting creatures and passionable animation. If you like disney movies and especially Little Mermaid I recommend watching this. If you are fan of Studio Ghibli films and pretty much love all the movies it's definitely movie you just have to watch.

Where darkness resides there is also light within.
Gedo Senki known as Tales of The Earth Sea is Goro Miyazaki's first ever directed film and how he did it. Well let just say I was blown away.
Story:
The story is very interesting it has prehistorical creatures and it has basic and very easy to understand storytelling in it. Also it describes basic Good vs Evil. But it takes it to whole another level. It also explains importance of life and all the living things in earth are treassures. Story has some critic moments and sorrowness but it also has happy times. The main theme in the
...
story is friendship and acknowledgement that your ready to immerse yourself into this movie.
Story is great and shines with style
10/10
Art:
Studio Ghibli never fails with animation. Goro has been taking very good perspective of things and he can really fit art into the movie. And it's just amazing that how realistic art he has iin the movie. All the buildings look like they could be real too in nature. Towns look really beautiful with old ruins and old textures. Lip sync was very well done in this movie. Like when Therru singged her song.
Studio Ghibli delivered again like it was living
10/10
Music:
I have always loved Studio Ghibli's music because if Miyazaki uses Joe Hisaishi in his movies. Then Goro can manage something really good too like Tamiya Terashima who really has passion for music. Also it just sounds wonderful and so amazing that you just want to cry for happiness of this music. There is used many instruments and they play very well when they put together. The music also reminds me of Lord of The Rings and Harry Potter movies.
Nice touch for the movie and creates many sounds that fit together
10/10
The Characters:
Gedo senki has many great characters and their personals are even funnier. There is very deep down voiced wizard then there is afraid man who really don't know anything and is searching answers. Girl who is having hard times for sadness she had to go through with it. And even scary old lady who has really unbelievable dark powers and she can control humans with her powers.
It also has very good amount of character development in it. First our main character Arren is afraid of him and pretty much scared of anything until later he gets confidence and strenght to fight.
Therru who has locked happiness and all the laugh inside her heart. And her song is freeing those things from that dark place she had inside of her.
And many more great characters.
Enjoyment:
10/10
I really enjoyed the movie it really had nice meaning into story and you could really see through it. There wasn't any times when I was felt like noo I can't take this anymore. Goro really succeeded with this one. I can't just believe that how he did it with his first try.
Gedo senki is wondeful story that has lies secrets beneath it's story like what is right and what is wrong in the world. Also it's magical story that can deliver movie thoughts into the viewers minds. If you love romantic, magical secrets stories then I am sure you like Gedo senki. Or if you're watched Studio Ghibli's movies earlier then you love this one like others. Even If you have never heard of Studio Ghibli I recommend watching these. It gave me way different thinking of what comes after life.
Overall this wonderful and nostalgic movie get's
10/10

When you have to make right decision in life can you live with it.
Monster is one of the great anime series I have ever seen. This was also my first time to watch anything that Naoko Urasawa did. His work is definitely great in this and I tell you now why.
(Story)
Monster story is really addictive it's because even you can predict some things in this anime it's really has many interesting meanings and these meanings are great because they are great example of that can be used in life too.
Story has many many twists so you cannot always predicted what will happen next. That's why
...
it's left to people to think about and discuss it until the near end.
Also storytelling is this once just fabulous. It's start really slowly but after couple of episodes it's just amazing how it can stay right track without going to go any side tracking all episodes that are in the series is connected somehow to the main plot line.
My grade for this awesome story is 10/10
(Art)
Art in the Monster looked first really weird it has a nice touching of old animation and it's like you watching really old movie that has old characters in it. But after couple of episodes you just really start understanding the art better and it's actually fits in the series really well. But one thing I have to say about art the persons eye's are almost same kind of which is weird. But all in all good art and definitely fits of this anime's atmosphere.
(Sound and Effects)
I really has to say monster definitely delivers in this section also. Music is really scary and effects that goes with make it really connected together. I have ever seen so great effects and music like in this anime. It really keep viewer in the good mood.
I have to say I kind of got fed up with the OP theme because they are using the same OP whole 74 episodes. But it's atmosphere and scenes that is shown during OP is just amazingly done. And that's really go nicely to atmosphere of this anime. Now ED theme is my favorite one and it's has dark atmosphere in it. And lyrics also seems to be so good that they fit into this kind of anime.
Monster get's nice 10/10 in music and effects.
(Characters)
Now where monster really shines is characters and definitely character development in this one. Because it seen in a lot of this series. All characters are really greatly developed whole series and also viewers see flashback stories most of the characters that has role to play in this anime. There is also many type of characters in this anime. But what finally connects this string is same goal in the end. Also everyone is having emotions too.
I am going to give this excellent anime 10/10 for characters. and awesome developments that are going on here.
(Enjoyment)
I really did enjoyed monster I just watch it and didn't response any kind of other responses. Because this anime is so freaking awesome that I just sat on my chair and watched like 10 + episodes per day. And when it ended I had feeling I wanna watch more.
Monster get's enjoyment 10/10
(Overall)
Overall Monster is great adaptation and is really worthy your time. You just wanna watch more once you are started watching this anime. It can also deliver you awesome character developments, really dark plot and wonderful meanings that could has place also in real life. It also seems what is really important in life with those meanings. Monster is complete anime with all the emotions that it has inside.
My final score this EPIC anime is going to be 10/10
