This Anime was absolutely a charm. Been watching so many Anime recently, but this was like a fresh breath.
Absolutely loved the characters.
I wouldn't call it the best sports Anime out there, but it doesn't need to be the best. Sports might not be the best area this Anime expels at, but this Anime had a lot going for it. And they were really good.

Characters were great.
Especially the MC. They showed that MC, even though he was good, he was very flawed.
After the incident, he struggled, but he did not gave up. Other characters were also good. The helped lift each other up.
And the ... Sweet Family Moments were like really great Deserts with Cherry on top, if I say so myself.

All in all, might not be as big as other sports Anime, or put too much time into each character, this was still a wonderful and a refreshing watch. And it's Anime Original, it does not have a Manga or LN even. It does not have that much time to build such long story, but still provided a very good time.

Can't remember the last time I had so much fun watching an Anime that I completed the entire season in one day, one sitting to be exact!
MAPPA & Masafumi Nishida, please bring 2nd Season soon of this wonderful Anime.

So I am going to challenge you.
The challenge is to complete reading the whole story!!

And I have few requests.
1. Don't pay much attention to the ratings and the reviews of other people from other sites until you're done reading the story.
- Because they are misleading and might rob you of your chance to enjoy a very great and emotional story.

The story in this Manhwa is really great. There is more, and I mean a lot more in the story than what the synopsis of the story tells you. And it's very deep and emotional. I had a very great time reading this manhwa.

As the ... synopsis points out "But what began as retaliation quickly turns into reconciliation as both Harley and the Ernst brothers come to understand each other's pain. There's a lot of weight behind that particular sentence. Because the story of reconciliation that you then get to see is very emotional. It also made me cry so much. I way unable to control my tears sometimes. It's so deep and meaningful. And there's never a dull moment. That's why I want you to first read the whole story and then make by your mind.

Had I also read just the reviews from other people and made my mind according to the ratings, I also would have missed a wonderful Manhwa.
I think the few reasons why the ratings are low is that many people did not complete the story. In, many were just talking about revenge. Do they only think about "revenge"? There's more to a story than that. And that is exactly why I want you to complete this story. You're definitely gonna enjoy it. And I promise you that the ending will also make things more clear even if at that point everything is Very much clear. And I know that I've already said it but & am going to say it that , there is never a dull moment in this Manhwa.

Once in while you get to witness a series that makes you think - "What a blessing it is to be alive and to be able to watch such a great series!!"
I certainly felt that way!! I waited for all the episodes to come out so I could watch all of them at once and I am so glad that I did exactly that.

It only took few episodes to make me say - "Whoever wrote the story for this series is a genius!!"
ASUKI TANAKA is indeed a genius.

Each and every character is well written and really interesting. The story also is really good. ... Mystery, Supernatural, Suspense are three genres this Anime has but I think it also has Horror aspects to it as well. But what's really good about it is that whenever the Anime tried to show any of it in any episode, it felt very real and natural. No overdoing or pretending anything!
The Time Travel part in this Anime was also executed so well and the interactions between the characters made the story so much enjoyable. Each and every character was so well written that there never a dull moment in the Anime for me!!

The Animation, themes, and the songs were really good. But if we're just talking about it as a series?! It's also a masterpiece!
Why? I'll say this again, and again if I want to -
- well written characters with whom there is never a dull moment.
- well written story which is really filled with mystery, horror, supernatural and suspense aspects
- theme surrounding the area where the story takes place

From the beginning, it felt like that this Anime was going to be unique and indeed it was very unique and interesting. Completed all the episodes in just under a day. I would've gone crazy if I had waited a week for every episode. Because it so good that you want to just keep watching it. You would just want to know more and more as it progresses. A truly wonderful Anime.

I thank ASUKI TANAKA again for making such a wonderful story. I usually don't look up about the authors or talk about being a fan or anything, but ASUKI TANAKA truly deserves a high praise for this top quality work and I am really a fan of his for this work now. He made me enjoy such a wonderful story from the beginning to the end. I can't wait to see his other works as well...

GOOD LUCK!!

This Anime cannot be explained in words properly. In fact, it's not an Anime. It's a "Story" that you live in. As I progressed, I wanted more of it and did not wanted it to end. But when it reached to the end, I don't know, the emotions I have right now, it's indescribable. It did something that I really don't like watching because it really hurts a lot. But the ending was so solid, emotional, heartbreaking that you just end up asking - "Why? Why it had to be this way?"

By the time it reached the end, almost forgot that it was anything ... but a world I am living in, or a story that I am experiencing on my own. I felt it, and it just hit different and hard!!
That one question, still remains and might remain forever. For the ending the story reached.

If only...
Well scratch that!!
I just wanna cry!!
Cannot ever forget that question...

Firstly, I am in love with Kaguya's Voice!!

First 2 season were pretty good, not gonna lie but this 3rd season is just awesome!!
The comedy is top-notch!! This season, the Anime also focused on more characters which were equally interesting to watch.

It's good too see such good animation done on such a good series. When you really have a good series and the animation is also top quality, it is really enjoyable & appreciable at the same time!!


I don't know how to explain it better, because on the surface, the series is just another Rom-Com revolving around school students. But it is especially unique.
Characters, ... Comedy, Themes, Animation, Songs etc. are all really good.

In the end, I highly recommend it and advice you to just watch it yourself and enjoy it, for I am sure you're really gonna enjoy it...

Really Great Animation, Visuals. Characters were also good and music was alright too. What it lacked was depth and seriousness. The idea was good but wasn't executed well!!

It felt it was trying to do something different but a decent story wasn't even available. The main focus was on Visuals & Characters, and while they were definitely good. Those were the only things it had. But aside from two characters, other ones didn't felt like having much of an impact anyhow. It was hard to get attached to them. Like I said, good concept, visuals and Main Characters, it lacked story, dedication and seriousness. I am ... not the type who be just "AWW" with the visuals. The content to back it up should be there. This Anime did not have that. It's really an mid-average...

I was a decent Anime...
It could have been much better because those elements were there to make it stand up more but wasn't executed that well...
Nothing I find more appreciable than MC having a sad past and he either overcomes it with the help of others, his friends or his friends trying to save him from his suffering after realizing the pain he went through...
This series had that story, which had potential, but wasn't really executed well...
Felt like they were going for a light tone!!
Had the environment been more serious and art/environment style was a little different to show some seriousness, it would have been ... much better. Well that's the source material. Also the animation quality was good but as I said, the type of story it had, the colors were too saturated to blend in with the story...
And I am so glad that it didn't rely on useless jokes like most of the Anime are going for these days. It was quite weird, felt like it was from a author who is just getting started with the work, but I see a lot of potential there...
I am hyped for the author's future works...
The flashback part about the MC's past and his reason & motivation for his actions were something that I really enjoyed and that is where I think lies a great potential...

All-in-all, this Anime is a decent one...

I kept watching and watching it without any concern about how much I've watched. It was so enjoyable that when it ended, I was like - "It ended already?". This Anime was really enjoyable and it is one of those Anime which just makes you want more & more. The characters were really great and interesting. The soundtracks as well as the ones used in between the fights were also really good and made those moment stand out more. Although I felt like that the Anime was still getting started and didn't show much as the series was building up it's story, it was still ... very enjoyable. The animation was really good as well. It's something that's hard to explain in words. Just get in as fast as you can get and witness it for yourself, you definitely won't regret watching this Anime.

When you find an Anime which is really good, you don't need to think twice on how you're gonna describe it. But there are Anime in which you have to think about where to to even start. This Anime is one of those.

Sure some might say that this Anime is "UNIQUE" and I am all in for "UNIQUE". But I don't think this Anime is what I will call unique. In my opinion, it's not unique. It is something that I'd call "RIDICULOUS!!".

Why? Character Designs are decent, that is, only for the ones that are in focus. Sure it's a comedy and a different ... kind of Anime and few characters might seem funny, okay, it's understandable. But!! Some of things that are shown in this Anime are also ridiculous. The concept is so ridiculous and the events are handled in such a way that even in the serious moments, you'd think "Was it trying to be serious just now?"
The "Ridiculous" aspect is present in majority.

And with no notable character development, they get all emotional and serious. I mean, was I supposed to feel some kind of emotion as well at that point? There was nothing special about them to make me feel attached to them and they suddenly start being emotional for. It's hard to take them seriously.

At moments, it felt like that the Anime was trying to do something. You know what that is? It was supposed to be a joke to make you laugh!!
ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN - There's a difference between supposed jokes and actual jokes. I don't know how else I'd explain this but well I think you know what I mean. "Forced Jokes"

I was hoping to give this Anime a 7. This kind of thing always happens to me with such Anime. I wanted to believe that this Anime is good seeing other people's reviews. But it does not have that kind of charm which will make you want to keep watching it at one go. I had to take multiple breaks.

And my oh my, that narrator sure knows how to annoy someone, doesn't he? It's fine that you're narrating things, but don't you have something genuine? Telling me the most obvious things.
For Example (This is not in Anime, just a simple comparison example) - I don't want you to EXPLAIN it to me that the car that just passed by you had 4 wheels. I can see that myself, thank you!!

It's a good Anime and I enjoyed it...
It certainly has some unique/different themes going for it and they are good as well.
Character Designs and Art Style makes the Anime enjoyable.
And the Characters themselves are also good and interesting!!
All-in-all, this Anime is a a fine watch.

It's weird that that's all that I have say about this Anime, because aside from those features I stated above, it felt kind of normal...

But it does it's job as a Comedy Anime, does have some action, and Art Style and Animation Quality is appreciable. But other than that, it's fun...
There are obviously dull moments as well, it is not perfect. ... But it is a good watch nonetheless...
The Synopsis pretty much sums it all up about this Anime...

I came to it expecting a lot more considering the high rating it started off with...
