I don't normally write reviews, but I have recently gotten addicted to the Azur Lane game since this series did a good enough job promoting the cuteness of the shipgirls.
If you are looking for a series with fantastic art, story, or sound design, I don't think this series is for you. It's not that any of these features are bad, but I personally thought that the quality of most aspects of Bisoku Zeshin were just good (7/10 for Story, Art, Sound).
But those aren't normally the main incentives for watching a cute girls doing cute things, slice of life anime. The main reason
...
I tend to enjoy these types of series has to do with the cuteness of the girls, and I thought Bisoku Zenshin did a fine job with that. This series focused mainly on the four starter ships (Niimi, Ayanami, Javelin, and Laffey), and followed them around as they interacted with some of the other ships. These interactions were all fairly amusing and showcased the cute side of these ships. There were a few cases where some of the names of the ships were brief and hard to remember, but for the most part each of the side character ships were given enough time to make them memorable (8/10 for Characters).
I personally thought that Bisoku Zenshin succeeded in the places where the other Azur Lane anime and the KanColle anime failed. Both of those other series had two major problems in my books. The first problem was with the scale. Both of those series tried to introduce way too many characters, which made most of them hard to remember. Bisoku Zenshin only had a handful of characters in the series, so this wasn't as much of a problem. The other issue with the other series was the relationship between their story and the series goal. In the end, all three of these series are trying to get more people interested in the game. But the other series got tied up trying to have some grand, action-based story line, and that kind of diluted the ability for the series to spend time on the cute aspects of shipgirls. Without the dilution from a storyline, this series was really effective as a promotional series for Azur Lane (which is why I am now addicted to the game).
In conclusion, I think that the quality of this series was good. It wasn't anything stellar, but I felt like it was well worth the time each week (even prior to starting the game). So as long as you are a fan of cute stuff I'm fairly sure you'd enjoy this series. (7/10 for Overall).
That said, I enjoyed this show a lot more than I expected. I've always been a CGDCT fan, and I really enjoyed seeing all the interactions between these shipgirls. For my personal enjoyment, this series was perfect (10/10 for Enjoyment).
