This anime was splendid as in my opnion it was perfect. There are pleanty of reasons to why I loved this anime and most of those reasons comes from how this anime stands out to me. Here's the reasons why I gave it the score that I did.

Firstly Mekakucity Actors had a great concept for their stoy. But this story not only got it a good score on my end but it's also the reason why I didn't give it a 10. The story is very well thought and compiled together but the only problem with it is that the story was all over the ... place and if you didn't pay attention you were going to get left behind and have no idea what is happening and at first I did get left behind. It wasn't until later that a friend had told me about the story.

The Art in the anime was superb. it's used of flat colours and what seems to be a simple style really gives it that atmoshpere and setting which it works very well with in my opinion with it being set probably in the future. The colours really works well to give it that furturistic feeling. Further more the style of drawing and animation all blend in well with the rest of the world. This art style could have been disaterouse but they pulled it off and it came out beautifully.

The characters all had a well planned personality which all suited not only their design but the story and their backstory very well. I don't have much to comment on the characters art from that they were well designed and practically hand crafted for this type of anime.

Setting was well done as it uses the Modern cities of the modern world but with a twist of the future in which I believe to be 10 or 20 years in the future. The setting works well with the story and the characters and that setting with the art it what gives it the atmosphere that it gives off when watching it.

Final thoughts:
Overall this anime was very entertaining but it will lose attention if people don't pay attention to the story. Mekakucity Actors was very well planned and makes use of no Main stream cliché's which is what i really enjoyed about this. To conclude I would reccomend this anime to anyone and it will definitly be worth a rewatch in the futue. You did a great job Shaft Studio's and I look forward to watching more of your works such as the Monogatari series.

As someone who has seen some of Kyoto Animation's works such as Nichijou and Kyoukai no Kanata I did not expect this from them. The Melancholy of Haruihi suzumiya was great for the first set of the series but as for the second season I feel like that there was lack quality than the first season and here is why.

I'm not going to analyse this in detail as I'm not good with detailed analysis but the second season spends way too much time on the Endless Eight Arc spending about half the seasons worth. Not only being way too long but also being just constant ... repeats of episode two from slightly different angles and altered dialogue most of it still being the original dialogue. Furthermore the rest of the season was not too entertaining as first season as it kind of felt like that Kyoto Animation ran out of ideas to keep the season a full 14 episodes and therefore decided to repeat one episode over and over which really brought the quality down. In my opinion it would have been better to make the season smaller than to fill it with repeated content.

Final thoughts on this series are that the second season was entertaining at the start and then got really repetitive with content, towards the end of the series the story began to get confusing. A lack of effort from Kyoto Animation really creates some negativity for the reputation of Kyoto Animation. If you plan on watching the series episodes from 3-4 are useless to the arc and that you skip ahead as it is pretty much just a repeat of the same episode, in addition episode 1,2 and 5 are pretty much a repeat but contain bits of the story is order to understand what is happening. I personally might re-watch this if I'm bored but other than that I will probably not come back to it. I would not recommend you watch this if you get bored easily.

School Days was a very different type of anime and it's phsycological factor really got to me. To me this anime was too much to handle the fact I got through 12 episodes is a miracle and here's why I gave it the score that I gave it.

The story of School Days was focused on the concept of trust and betrayal where it would not only stur up and create events along the story but also mess with the viewers emotional state as well. The art was very generic and some times it didn't feel up to scratch but I'm not saying it was ... terrible. The Characters at the start would develope in a way where you on a emotional level understand them untill that is torn to shreds with your pure hatred of all the characters in the story due the amount of betrayal and what some would say (Stabbing in the back). Overall I didn't enjoy this anime because the phsycological aspect of the anime really messed with me emotionally and made me feel depressed for a short while.

Final Thoughts: This anime does have it's good point in that the way the story was excecuted as that as much as i didn't enjoy it i was still fully tuned in. To people who enjoy a good phsyocological anime you will most definitly enjoy this anime. As for me I would not rewatch it but I do recommend it to anyone who has a taste for a good phycological anime.

Gate was an interesting anime to me. I thought that the anime stood out from your generic type of anime in a few ways. I overral really enjoyed the anime and here's is why I gave it the score that I did.

Gate does characterisation of the characters by giving a bit of back story later in the series with just overall good character development and design. What I found most unique about Gate is that the story is very orriginal and leans away from other types of military anime and appropriately situates any comedy so that it is not to ruin the overall atmosphere and ... feel created by the story. The art style wasn't very disinguishable from other anime titles but Gate still looked very pretty. The setting of the anime is used in other types of anime but what makes Gate different from them is that it's a mix. You have the modern world of today and the medieval RPG styled world, and A-1 Pictures mixes them together flawlessly to give you the best of both worlds.

Final thoughts: this anime was extremely enjoyable to me and I would highly recomend this anime to anyone who is into the Military Genre or who would just enjoy a unique type of anime once in a while. I would definitly recommend it to my friends and it will definitly be worth a rewatch after some time. I have high hopes for the seconds season.

I’m going to give my honest opinion on this. I absolutely loved this anime due to many factors. I myself haven’t read the manga or the light novels but I will say is that Madhouse did a great job with No Game No Life and they lived up to my expectation of them with this. Now here’s why I thought this was a splendid piece of art.

I’m not very good at analysing detail but the major reason to why I loved this anime is that uniqueness No Game No Life has compared to other anime. Madhouse does a good mix of both an intriguing and ... wonderful story and comedy at the right times in addition to the well done character development. To me I also thought that the art style is very unique with an interesting choice of colours. Just to reassure that this is only my view and yours may differ from mine about this series. Overall No Game No Life was a splendid Anime and I would definitely watch it again and recommend it to anyone who loves anime or games.
