The show is a lot of fun, and overall I enjoyed my time with it, but the writing has issues. The pacing is just downright bad and every plot line suffers for it. The show has so many plot lines crammed into it, and not only does it not have enough time to properly go through and resolve them all, it doesn't use the time it does have efficiently. It also keeps ramming new discoveries and new issues all the way down to the last episode.

The political intrigue balloons in scope and starts meandering. A bit over halfway through Season 2, so many things ...

Overall, the manga is great, but it feels like it's two different stories mashed together into one, and not in a good way.

On one hand, you have a cute, heartfelt story about two insomniacs meeting and growing together due to their shared condition.

It's a very grounded look at relationships, and it's not afraid to show both the good and the bad. The story centers around lesbian romance, and has a lot to say about the queer experience as well.

The characters feel very human, and the manga takes great care to ...

Girls Band Cry is about staying true to yourself, not letting others get you down or hold you back, and the sense of freedom that comes from expressing yourself. It's far from the first anime to have these themes, but it sets itself apart from other similar shows with a display of raw, visceral emotion and passion, a unique cast of characters, and a very grounded approach. Girls Band Cry is about a group of flawed individuals stumbling into a band, and isn't afraid to show the reality of how messy and difficult human interactions can be.

The character drama is incredibly raw, the band butt ...
