Today I realized that I never reviewed by favorite anime thus far (right up there with HXH). I never reviewed it because I thought everyone already knew about it and watched it. What spurred me to write this review is the fact that Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood has lost its seat in first place to an anime movie that came out this year, Kimi no na wa...

Why?

It hasn't even been out for a year and yet it beats FMAB and many other fantastic shows. I just don't understand. I watched it and liked it and gave it an 8. It doesn't deserve first place. FMAB does, ...

Preliminary (67/181 chp)
I am not going to give a very detailed review of this manga because one, it is still ongoing and two, I don't quite remember everything so clearly. Around chapter 40 I stopped keeping up with each new chapter week after week. There are 80+ chapters out now so that means I didn't read the manga for 40 weeks. That is 10 months. I don't know if I am doing the math right here, but anyways I just recently picked up the manga again and got up to chapter 67 before dropping the it. My memory isn't so fresh but I do have my complaints.

I just binge-watched this show in one day, and already that says something. The anime caught my attention within the first episode and I didn't get bored through the entire 11 episodes.

The art was simple and it did its job well. The art didn't need to be amazing or complicated to tell this story. I didn't really notice any particular song I liked in the soundtrack, it just all fit the mood. There was only one song that was really annoying but it barely played for a minute so it doesn't really matter.

The characters were very well portrayed and no one really felt one-dimensional, something ...

Sound 3

I cannot recall anything of the music from either seasons. That's a bad sign.

Art 6

While some scenes were very nicely animated, I just don't like the character designs at all and nothing really stands out for me.

They did this thing a lot where they'd have this painted background but then the actual characters would be brightly and clearly animated in front of it. The contrast was just really jarring.

As for character designs....Ugh. The main character could not have a more generic main character design. Black spiky hair. Angry-looking most of the time. Some nice green eyes. He was just so generic, and I ...

Preliminary (36/67 chp)
Even though this manga is not completed yet, I'd like to review on what I've read so far (up to chapter 36).

Art

While the art is very simple, it works and is kind of cute in its own way. The art isn't ugly, just plain. It has its own charm to it.

Characters

The characters are very well done. I feel very emotionally attached to the two main characters and even the side characters are very realistically portrayed.

I don't know why I didn't watch this anime sooner. How can an anime of this caliber go right under my radar while a bunch of crappy popular anime constantly grab my attention?

Art

The art was very nice. Some scenes were animated a little oddly or plainly but overall it was very well-animated. As for character design, at first I wasn't a fan but it grew on me, especially the clothing. The clothing really grabbed my attention, especially the shoes. Mahiro's and Yoshino's shoes in the first half of the anime are amazing. Mahiro's shoes in the second half are great as well. Both of their ...

I'd like to repeat what someone said in the comments section of Future Diary once...This is a crappy anime with a good execution. That was their conclusion and that pretty much wraps up my own.

I really enjoyed this anime at first. The crazy female lead was entertaining and I loved laughing at how pathetic the main character was. But I soon began to notice tons of plot holes and I realized I didn't really like any of the characters except for Yuno, and that was only half the time.

This anime makes all sorts of random crap happen without explanation or with a bad explanation at ...

"Code Geass is the best anime ever" "You should watch Code Geass" "Code Geass is way better than X anime"

Well, hearing all of that, what do you think I did? That's right, I watched the anime. All of it. Both seasons. And did I enjoy it? Did I finally realize how amazing the anime was, as everyone says? My answer is no, no I did not. For a time I did maybe, but in the end I was thoroughly disappointed by what many consider to be the "best" anime. Just look at the amount of reviews on here that give the anime a 9 or ...

Nana (Anime) add
Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (23/47 eps)
While I've only watched up to episode 23 I've read up to chapter 36 in the manga and from there I gave up. I don't think I can properly review this anime as I haven't finished it but I feel that I need to say a little something.

Nana was really addicting at first, it seemed interesting and it was a mature story. I've also seen the anime and read the manga Paradise Kiss by the same author and it had a similar vibe. I thought I'd like it. I did like it at first, but then it started going down the wrong path. I don't ...

Art

I would be giving this anime a perfect 10 if it weren't for the dreadful art. Many episodes were just panels from the manga with the characters talking in the background. It was horrible. I've never seen an anime with such bad art.

Sound

The music wasn't that great. I actually got some of the songs stuck in my head which was really annoying because they were stupid. Some of the scenes that were supposed to be serious actually made me burst out laughing because of how bad the music was. There wasn't much variety in the songs played and none of them were great.

Character

Even though the ...
