Essentially a string of cutscenes that are rendered in real time. The direction is shit, characters just keep meeting in the same 1 or 2 locations, with a static camera angle. Vocal performances are sad. No real fights to speak of, characters make incredibly stupid decisions, and the story doesn't actually provide any meaningful context to the kingdom hearts universe. It exists as a tease about stuff that kinda relates to kingdom hearts 3 but doesn't give any more information than was found in KH3. Honestly don't wast your time with it, just read a summary on a wiki if you want to know what ... happened.

Nostalgic 80's anime vibes are strong here.

Character design is dope.

Plenty of nonsense leaves you going "why the fuck not, hell yeah!"

The music is downright iconic and unforgettable.

Enough symbolism and metaphors to make you think, without spelling anything out - a rarity I appreciate. It leaves you thinking about the show and what messages it was trying to convey, as well as what you personally pulled from it, long after finishing it.

... Don't watch the movie version.

I'm not gonna summarize or analyze the show here, but apparently there's a character minimum for reviews. This should shore that up.

A cast of flawed characters trying to figure out life in the most relatable way, with a killer soundtrack and great vocal performances. The fights are well stated battles of personal philosophy with INCREDIBLE animation (this season contains the highest quality fight scene I've yet to see in anime).

The exact means by which antagonists act at times is flawed at times, and the conclusion didn't seem to pack as much bang as the penultimate battle. If you like to watch anime that looks good WATCH THIS. If you like good character driven anime, YOU SHOULD REALLY WATCH THIS. Finding both of those flawlessly wrapped ... into one package makes this a straight up masterpiece.
