Even though I have already played the game before watching this, I do my best to write a review on the anime itself and not do the annoying thing of comparing the anime with the game. Seriously, though, about every post here does a very good job of ruining the excitement for future watchers.
Story (9/10) If you're looking for anime that makes you think and think and think and when you're sure of something then it blows all over your face, this is definitely a watch for you. I admit, the mysteries are not all that...mysterious. It's not hard to figure out by yourself. It
...
has those moments where something will totally take you by surprise and will make you want to cry and giggle at the same time and puke on a unicorn. (It's how I felt HAHAHAHAHA) Anyway, I absolutely do not regret watching this.
Art (9/10) The art is amazing. Though it does not's not really as good as other animes such as SnK or whatever, the thing that stands out here most is the way the characters are portrayed. They really did a good job of making sure that each and every character has a different kind of expression when they react to something. The way the places were drawn were also very cool and fitting to the theme. And who doesn't love Monokuma?
Sound (8/10) Nothing seemed out of place when it came to the background music. It all fits in nicely. I personally enjoyed the creepy music thing they got going on, but I advise you not to watch it by yourself at night. >:) The opening that was used (Never Say Never) was really awesome. Some episodes didn't have an opening song though. But it's all good.
Character (8/10) At first, there were so many characters that I had trouble keeping up with them. I had to hit pause everytime a new character introduced himself/herself, since I was somehow used to there being at the most, five main characters in an anime. But by the time I was somewhere in the middle of the episodes, I had already memorized their names. I can't say why I rated the characters so high without spoiling stuff for you so see for yourself! :D
Enjoyment (8/10) I reeaaally enjoyed watching this anime though I'm sure not everyone would think the same. It's too short, though. It is honestly one of my favorite anime this season. Though it has a mysterious theme to it, there are funny moments where you just have to laugh. The animation is really refreshing too.
Overall (8/10) I'm crushed by all these negative reviews. I mean, I played the game beforehand but that didn't stop me from enjoying it to its last moments. I recommend this anyone who likes mysteries and survival game stuff.. and people who like diversity when it comes to characters. I know some of them are a little cliche, but there's so many of them. It's really fun to watch them interact with each other.
