This is NOT an easy watch, I was very offended by how whiny, loud, generic and Shinji Ikari level angsty a lead Thorfinn was. This is not a seinen anime when it has all the makings of a sloppy Black Clover level annoying shounen. Revenge, really? *chuckles" How daring a plotline ha ha ha ha ....... (do'h revenge time). And Thorfin's dad going out to get milk early in the series.....NEVER seen that before. This must be the first dark anime to dabble in a main character being an orphan. Dark and orphan...orphan black?
I watched Watamote instead and it was a much better experience on

I never laughed when watching Nichijew, I cried (in boredom) watching Azumanga Do'h, I watched Daily lives of High School Boys stone faced as the minutes of my NEET life faded away watching unfunny shit. But Watamote changed that, this is the first anime I've genuinely ever found funny, this is the first anime in existance to do Japanese humour well. This anime will literally change your life.
Then again I want this anime to remain obscure and not be tainted by pleb shits who watch 0IQ unfunny stuff like Dandandan or like Vinland Saga...hey if you liked Vinland Saga don't watch Watamote, it's not for ...

If you like josei and want to read this then idk, sure it's interesting to see the perspective of a male abuse victim and it's cute how in love Ash and Eiji are...
BUT THAT IS IT! other than Ash's past and a few cute Eiji and Ash moments this anime has nothing. Everyone has plot armour, none of the stakes feel real, the world setting doesn't feel real at all despite being based in NY, there are no interesting dynamics between the gang members or the villains, they either hate ash or follow him blindly... Bad characters, bad writing, bad plot. Worth watching on 2x speed ...

-----------Spoiler Free Review-----------
For anyone planning to watch this anime, a disclaimer is to be made. Please Save My Earth does not have an ending. The final scene in the 6th episode is a sneak peak of compilation of events that happen in the manga. Basically, Please Save My Earth has a "go read the manga" ending. Despite such a lackluster ending, you must be wondering why still a 10/10 review? Because this series is a phenomenal piece of work. It an outstanding performance of animation, music and story, and a true testament to what anime in the 90's really was. Any avid watcher of anime should have ... |
