I had high hopes for season 2, was looking forward to all the unanswered questions presented in season 1, but this was a huge letdown!

Since there are no episode discussions for this season, I will use this review to relieve my frustrations.. sorry..

SPOILER WARNING!!!

First of all, I was really excited for Harry's story and why he turned against SSC. Initially he was helping Connor in order to obtain a mask and save his girlfriend, but they never show what actually happened to her.. how she got sick? and why on earth did Harry leave SSC in the first place and became their enemy? Worst of ... all they never showed what happened to Harry in the end? just a sound of gunshot which concludes he commit suicide?!!?

Moving on, who is the mystery man voiced by Tsuda-san? They never reveled his name? how he is connected to the head of SSC? Why does he want to obtain the mask? Was he the mastermind behind all of this?

Further moving on, the professor is a successful mask user? as it seems he is not affected by the rapid aging side effect? How did he escape the asylum?

Is James alive now because of the mask? Did Tina actually die? Where did Sarah Sinclaire go? they totally forgot her in this season?

This season was a huge disappointment! the story had a great potential, but is very poorly conducted! too bad it turned out this way..

Even though I'm still watching season 2, I had to write a review for season 1.

It is a good anime with a great plot and great potential, but is poorly handled by bad editing skills and almost no background music/sound.
I understand why this show scored so low.

For me, the main problem was background effects, music/sound and bad editing. Some of the scenes are dragged unnecessary long. And the lack of background effects makes it seems even longer.
The most sound u hear in the background are ventilation/air condition noises from an office building or the wind blowing.. sometimes it even feels like you are sitting ... in a plane and hear the "flight" noise that u experience while traveling.

Some of the scenes in season 1 are quite emotional.. its a crime investigation show, so there is a lot of death involved.. but all u get to see are the characters moving without any sad music in the background.. You miss the impact and emotions the scene is trying to create...

I enjoyed the story and I want to know what happens next, thats why I'm still watching season 2. But this could have been sooo much show if it was done in a better way.

Writing this review after watching both seasons! This review contains SPOILERS!

I must admit I was really excited to watch this show as I have seen the BBC Sherlock series and loved it! And the fact that this is so high rated, I guess i put my expectations too high... I also want to clear that I am not judging anybody here, and we all have different standards and taste.

The story is good but not amazing.. I enjoyed watching it, but not as much as i expected.. it was a bit of let down to be honest..
First of all, I felt no connection to the ... characters in any way.. not even the MC. The bond between Moriarty and Sherlock is born out of nowhere.. its not shown how they developed a type of "friendship" during their "catch me if u can" game..
Same goes with Sherlock and Mr. Watson.. they meet and suddenly starts acting like best friends..?!?

The only scene I felt emotionally connected to was during the last episode in season 2.. but that was it! Except that, rest of the series feels bland and kind of boring.. I finished it because i hate leaving things halfway through..


The same goes with Irene.. in the real series she is the love interest of Sherlock, but in anime its not shown any signs of that.. Still when she disappear, Sherlock seems sad about it.. And why did Moriarty had to kill Whiteley? Why didn't he save him like he saved Irene? There are so many things that just doesnt make sense. The last thing I want to mention is why Moriarty had to die? And when he survived, why didnt he contact his family? poor little Louis missed him so much

Awww what a heartwarming story!

This anime is pure enjoyment! Warm bright colors, beautiful music, amazing and pretty art! Kyoto animation really delivers the best
Best part is, its all real! there are no supernatural powers or exceptional skills. its just as real as it gets!

Story is a bit slow at the beginning, and I wished they showed more flashbacks of MC past and Masa-san's life. But I guess its more in the manga?

I'm really excited for the movie! Hope its a sequel and not a recap of the first season! Hope they make more seasons as well

I think I've found another comfort anime

I am sooo glad i found this anime! Being a sucker for historical, cultural and edo style anime, this show was a perfect match!
I cant get enough of the historical Japan. The amazing old style homes/inns, traditional clothing and food, the customs and lifestyles of old era are my weakness🥺somehow life felt so much simpler and easier in that era.

I must admit, the firs two episodes were kind of boring and had me like "what is this? Am I going to waste my time on this" But as soon as the story went back in time, it quickly picked up my interest.

This is ... a very powerful, emotional, realistic and even tragic show. It shows us the harsh reality of life, the ups and down, how we as humans cope with the obstacles in life and adapt ourselves to new situations and environments.

The show is about the art of Rakugo (I had never heard of it before) and how the main characters work together and struggle to keep this art alive. Character development is huge and the story is great which flows with the different era.
Soundtracks are amazing! Already put many of the ost's in my playlist. Would absolutely recommend it!

Yonaaaa!

Ohh how I miss this show! I finished it 6 months ago, but still can't get over it! I had to start on the manga since there is no second season 😢😭
I really really hope it gets more seasons because there is soooo much happening in the manga! and I can't wait to see the charming Soo-won moments🥰and the romantic and funny scenes between Hak and Yona😍

This show has GREAT characters, good story, and lots of enjoyment and fun.The music and art style is very good and high quality! Loved the way they animated the funny scenes 🤣

I would highly recommend it to anybody who ... is a sucker for more traditional/historical anime like me 🤩

Absolutely LOVED this show!!

Imagine if you could get the chance to live your highschool moments again? i would definitely do it! If possible maybe go back to my uni days coz that was the best time of my life 🥰

This show really focus on the obstacles and difficulties each and everyone of us faces in the daily life, specially as adults. For some its nothing, while for others its a huge achievement just to get out of bed and do anything.
It also shows us the difficulties of work life and how the adult world is constructed with all the demands and pressure put on the ... individuals.
Being a worker, I could totally relate to many of these scenarios, specially the male to female discrimination.

Show is amazing, story is great and character development is pure and undeniable.

SPOILER WARNING!!!





The only part i miss here is that they didnt show us the other characters after the ReLife ended. Like how they ended up in life? Maybe just a scene where Kaizaki is watching them from the side and being happy for them?

So i finally managed to finish this series! And watched the entire last season in one day 😅 Soo here I come to cry my eyes out 😭😭😭 I just have to write this review so i can get it off my chest😪😥

This is a review on ALL 3 seasons!

I have seen very few anime that made such impact on me. I feel very emotionally attracted to this show for many reasons. Its a joyful ride packed with happiness, sadness, laughter, which in end leaves u with nostalgia and melancholy😢at least thats how i felt..

I wont spoil anything. There are many chlichè and absolutely absurd ... moments that makes no sense at all.. And some very cute, sweet and simple moments that really touches your heart 💖
At some point i found the main character Tohru to be a fairy goddess/kamisama bcoz she seemed to have solutions to everyones problems 😂😒

The story builds up pretty well! we get a lot of background stories even for the side cast which i dont think was that necessary..
The character development was great aswell! No unsolved/unanswered issues left..
One of the main characters, Aktio's development was a bit rushed if u ask me.. but you cant blame when the last season only offers 13 episodes.

Great soundtracks and vert good art. My youtube playlist is now packed with fruit basket osts 😅

Overall i would give this a strong 9. Mostly bcoz of the short last season and rushed ending.

Sayonara.. Frutis basket..

I had really high hopes for this show, but it was really disappointing.

MINOR SPOILER WARNING!!

I havent seen the 2003 series nor read the novel. I gave up after 3 episodes. It was so boring that i really couldnt bother to complete it, even though i hate leaving things incomplete :/

The show is episodic, which is a style i like very much. But there are too many unexplained matters. Like the bike Hermes can speak? how and why? Same with the dog Riku from episode 2. There is no background story of who Kino is? maybe they do reveal it later in the show?

Some people ... say its a dark themes anime and not suited for everybody. Well they are right! It sure was not my cup of tea!

If you are looking for a adventures, action filled and fun anime, DONT watch this one. Find something else.

At first i thought this show was kind of boring and could not understand why ppl would rate it so high. But I must admit that after 4 episodes this show grew up on me.

Still its a solid 7 rating for me. Main reason for that is because of the main character. I found him a bit annoying and boring to be honest. Like his listlessness really annoyed me. He is blessed with a very great friend though! But i wish he was a bit more independent.

The show gave me a bit Hyouka vibes.. Though Tanaka-kun is nothing compared to our genius Oreki-kun. But the ... school theme, cultural festival, laziness and the soundtracks reminded me a lot of Hyouka. Really brought back memories and nostalgia.

At first i was just planning to finish the main series, but afterwards i even watched the specials :D So yes i enjoyed it quite well. Its very calm and relaxing. Still cant understand why ppl would rate so high though, but thats just my opinion.
