I first read this Manga on some random manga magazine I found in my brother's room, and I just loved it.

it had some great concept with 12 Chinese Zodiac as and mix it with some kind of ancient weapon. and I love how they travel to meet all the weapon owners and fight them sometimes.

it is a shame that this Manga only had 5 Volumes, that's the only bad thing about this manga. they are supposed to try to make it longer at least cause the idea itself is pretty interesting and makes you want to read the next Volume.

Overall it is a solid seven ... for me because of how they ended this series halfway through.

I've always wanted to watch this movie since the trailer was released on 2020, and I go to the theater to see this movie with high expectations that this movie will exceed Koe No Katachi, but after watched it, I got my expectations somewhat betrayed.

First I'm going to tell what got my attention first, the way they portrayed the world, the emotion of the characters, Soundtrack (Yeah Eve is one of the reasons why I watched this movie), Characters Developments, and The Voice Acting (I freakin love how Kansai Dialect sounds so sweet in my ears).

I instantly wanted to watch Josee to Tora to Sakana-Tachi ... as soon as I heard they speak Kansai Dialect, which is rare for me, and The Animations and Soundtracks is just a Bonus for me.

As for the Characters, there are only five characters that you have to remember, and all of them are great factors for the story. And finally, there is so much you can attain from observe the characters grow into a better person and experiences a wholesome relationship.

Other than that, this movie is just another "Well, not bad" kinda movie. The soundtracks except the Ending are just Mediocre stuff, not a soundtracks that leave a huge impression for me. and the way they did the Climax is a "meh" for me. Not necessarily bad, but disappointing. But, maybe it's my fault to get my expectations high just by watched the trailer.


Overall it is a 7.5/10 for me, absolutely a good experience though. probably gonna recommend it to some of my friends, or even crush, idk.

Welcome to NHK!
Story: 9
A story of a man named Satou Tatsuhiro lives his NEET life.
the story seems simple at first, but as I'm watching more and more of this anime, I'm starting to think a lot about life. "am I going succeed in life?" "am I going to be a NEET?" etc. I'm starting viewing life from Satou point of view, it kinda frightens me at first, but as I watch it till the end, now I kinda have a positive view for life. for those of you who still have doubt to watch this anime, I suggest you to try to watch the first ... 5 episode. it will be worth your time, but please watch till the end so you can grasp the full value of this anime.

Art: 8
for an anime that produce in 2006, Welcome to NHK! has a pretty good art. it's good because they successfully portray view from 2006 so well. even so, there is some flaw in some episode that the animation does not look so good. but it's ok I think considering it's produced in 2006.

Sound: 7
I don't really have a lot of thought about the sound. I like both the Opening song and the Ending song. for the soundtrack it is pretty good, they succeed to dramatize the situation with the soundtrack.

Character: 7
Each character has their own role, each character has their own struggle they had to overcome. therefore they rely on each other. because human need another human. I think that's one of the point i gain from watching this anime. every character grows and move on with their life. that is one of the strong point what I love about this show.

Enjoyment: 9
I do love this show because it's teaching me about life, human relations, and how to stay positive in life. when I watch this show sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry, sometimes I feel uneasy. but that's what I love about this show.

Overall: 9
It's worth my time to watch this anime, because I can view a different point of view, and I can be more positive about life. just thinking about every character in this show put their best to stay alive, it makes me feel I have to do the same.

for you who seek a reason to live or thinking like "what should I do in life", I truly recommend you to watch this anime, and please watch till the end. because I think things will probably head in a good direction.

btw sorry for the bad writing, English is not my first language and it's my second time to write a review. I hope you enjoy it. ^.^

it's my first time write a review so , i'm sorry for my bad writing.
just watching this anime put a smile on my face. it's really made my day just thinking back all the moments from this anime.
Just like any slice of life anime, it doesn't have any dramatic developments or ongoing plot. but for you there who loves slice of life i think it is one of the best anime waiting to be watch.

the Art is pretty good, the animation and the Soundtrack fit so well. the soundtrack really give you the chill vibe and i think that's one of my favorite part ... of this anime. and for the character, i think Nadeshiko and Rin fit so well to become the main character of the anime. Nadeshiko, the cheerful girl. and Rin, the one who like to be alone and enjoy the nature. it's fit so well.

and overall i really enjoy this anime, for you who probably seeking for a great anime that you can watch while sitback and enjoying the show without any serious development, This Show is Perfect for you.

That's it for my review, i hope it would be helpful.
