So...

When I talk about a masterpiece, then it must be perfect.
But...
Let's talk about that some other time, cuz now I'm too busy to write this wonderful piece of art.

Story:

I have no idea

... Characters:

A group of three kids:

A leader that hangis himself all the time. Best thing is, he always has a rope around his neck! I wonder what his parents must think.
"Hang in there!"
As a reason for doing this is that he "thinks" like that, but I'm sure he just wants to end his life because he can't get that wonderful circle around his left eye away, that looks like as if someone had played a prank on him, oh, how much I feel with you....

*Ahem*

Moving on.

We have a girl with a (note)book. No, not a Death Note, cause that be breaking copyright, but even though, I'm sure it would have been better. The girl is quite boring so let's just forget everything here.

aaand last but not least

A guy with a mouth mask. But not a mouth protection, it looks like a lolly with two strings on the side. Perfect for little kids!
Maybe he's wearing it so his teeth won't fall out? Or is it really a lolly?!

I guess there are many more "stupid" stupid people, but no one wants to know that, right? Better tell you about the psychos! I mean, who doesn't hang himself from time to time?

Art

I always ask myself what the people thought who designed those characters. I mean, it's for kids. Sure, show how those cut off arms look like, why not? And I mean, every kid needs to know how to get the hanging done, am I right? Wait were by the art....
Well never mind!

Overall

A work of art! I mean look at this wonderful review!

Oh

Wait.

Were at the overall part

Overall

Story 0/10
Art -0/10
Character -100/10
Enjoyment guess

Overallllllll: 4/10

DISCLAIMER: This is coming from someone who has played the game.

Danganronpa is a very popular Visual Novel mixed with puzzle and adventure.
Because it was so popular, they thought they'd make an anime, so that you could watch Makoto solve the mysteries on your TV screen.
Today I am going to review Danganronpa: Kibou no Gakuen to Zetsubou no Koukousei The Animation, one of my most favorite game series and anime.

Story: 9/10
The story follows Makoto Naegi, who gets chosen to attend the elite High School, Hopes Peak Academy, where only the people, who are the best in their field, for example cooking or swimming, are taken. But ... all takes a turn to the bad, because the students have to kill each other to get outside. The story is very interesting and makes you want to know what's the purpose of the game.
The only problem I can see in the story, is that it is too rushed. You don't get to see much of the investigations and there is not much character development, but I'll get to that later. But overall, I really enjoyed the story and how it turned out.

Art: 10/10
I really enjoyed the art. I have never seen an anime drawn like this.
It had a very colorful style and the way they handled the blood was also really cool. I liked how they handled the class trial. they made it look a little like the game.

Sound: 10/10
This must be one of my most favorite soundtracks. It fits perfectly to the story and characters and gives you a mysterious feeling.
The opening was OK, but I wouldn't want to listen to it again. It didn't fit very good to the theme the story was giving us.
The ending however, was extremely good and one of my most favorite ending songs. It fit perfectly to the story and gave you the feeling of wanting more.

Characters: 8/10
I think the biggest problem with this series are the characters. Not because their annoying or stupid or have no purpose, it's because they have no time to develop. In each episode (except episode 1 and a few others), they solve a crime where one or more characters are killed, leaving no time for plot development of the students in the episodes. But overall, the characters were very enjoyable to watch.

Enjoyment: 10/10
I literally couldn't stop watching this series. It got me hooked, even if I knew already how it ended.

Overall: 10/10
It wasn't as good as the game, but it was enough to get me hooked. I really enjoyed it.

For more recommendations, I point to:
-Akuma no Riddle, having the same theme, only that 12 killers are trying to kill one victim.
-Mirai Nikki, having a survival theme, but with more brutality.
-Another, going more in the horror genre, but has a small theme of survival.
-Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, more in the horror/gore genre, but goes into the survival theme in some arcs.
-Corpse Party, has a survival theme, but with much more gore/splatter.

Thanks for taking your time and reading my review. ;)

DISCLAIMER: This is my first review. Don't be to harsh on me ;).
MINOR SPOILER ALERT
Death Note is known as one of the best Manga of the Manga universe. There is a lot of merchandise, there are even theories about death by Death Notes in real life.
Today I want to talk about this over popular manga.

Story: 9/10
The story revolves about the Death Note, a notebook that when you write a name in it, that person will die. It is a very good Idea, if it is done right. Death Note creators Takeshi Obata and Tsugumi Ohba did it right.
They show us how people, who have no ... specific problems or other, can turn into killing psychopath.
My only problem with the story is how they handle some of the characters. But overall, it was very enjoyable.

Art: 8/10
Very good, but not my favorite. It fit perfect to the stories and characters, and can make you shiver when Light gets a laughing strike.

Characters: 8/10
The characters where all very interesting, L and Matsuda being my favorites from all. My only problem with the characters, is Light.
I can hear the Fan-girls crying already.
Well, let me explain. Light starts out to be a very intelligent young man with the will to change humanity to the better. For the next chapters it stays that way. But at the end, he starts to turn into a psychopath. Don't understand me wrong, I don't really mind when that happens, but not only does he go crazy, his character kinda changes as well.

Enjoyment: 7/10
My enjoyment shifted quite a bit from "This is sooo cool!" to "Are you serious?"
At the beginning, my expectations for this series wasn't high. But then after a few interesting changes in the story , it got more and more interesting. But it dropped down again by killing someone rather important. I quite liked the ending though.

Overall: 8/10
I quite enjoyed it, even if it had a few this and that's, but I would recommend it to anybody who likes the mystery, supernatural and suspense genre.

For recommendations I would point out:
-Bloody Monday, having also a suspense plot line in it and a little mystery.
-Ajin, has also a suspense plot line and you get kinda the same feeling while reading it as when you are reading Death Note.

Thanks for taking your time and reading my review! ;)
