I'll start by saying what 100 manhwa is not. 100 is not a rich in details story. 100 is not a story with interesting or well written characters. 100 is not something you'll still remember 1 year after you've done reading it.

Is 100 a bad manhwa then? Well, it depends. If you're looking to read something deeep, you should stop reading this review and go find something else to read. However, if you're in the mood for short, cheap, action and blood packed story with few not so interesting yet original twists then you should give it a try. Just make sure to play some ... Carpenter Brut album at full volume in the background before you start reading to put yourself into the right mood.

This story is literally a rip off from Spirited Away mixed with Star Platinum ZA WARUDO from Jojo spiced up a bit by passion of running of whoever the person is that came up with the plot.

In short the plot resolves about young girl who's mother was god tier runner. Said girl liked running also. Too bad, mother has died due to uknown reasons and now the daughter enters the world of spirits and begins her journey to see her mother's soul again. Blah blah blah, you know the drill. It might sound like i'm talking shit about the plot but the execution is actually ... good and you should give this movie a try.

Animation is nothing out of ordinary but it's not bad either and fits quiet well. As for the sound the voice acting was also good and OST was overall also good with few exceptions for when it got exellent from time to time during more important scenes.

As for characters there's not much to talk about here. Our main focus is MC that will have a lot of ups and downs throughout the story. Pretty human of her if you ask me. As for the other characters they're all literally a side plan.

As for the enjoyment aside from first 10 minutes that i found to be boring rest of the movie wasn't boring at all. Sure, it might feel a little bit cliche if you saw similiar stories before but it's not cliche to the point that you'll know right away what will happen on screen up next. You also might want to go out and start running a bit after watching it.

Solid 7/10

TDLR: Movie feels like it was written by a bunch of 12 years olds for school project.

Story: 20 minutes into the movie and i still have zero clue what is this thing even about. Ok, we have some humans fighting against each other and there are not only humans but other races also like elves, orcs, goblins. The only thing I know after 20 minutes is that they fight about something. Don't know what yet because movie didn't bother to tell you what it's gonna be about.

Only later we find out it's about good guys vs. bad guys fighting over some magical rod ... and magical elf that can handle the magical rod to it's full potential. Whatever, nobody cares at this point - should have told me that before both sides started to fight, maybe then i would care a little.

Art: CGI. A bad CGI to be precise. Movie had maybe like 1 or 2 moments when i wasn't feeling like vormitting.

Sound: Soundtrack would be good if it wasn't used in this movie, lol. Very unfitting in 90% of scenes.

Character: So we have 3 main characters. The very first one is some samurai dude that has a flashbacks about loosing his eye every 5 minutes. Second main character is some goody goody good orc whose character design is a copy paste of other baddy baddy bad orcs. There is also an annoying elf that screams and bites people whenever we can see her on screen. We also have 2 main bad characters that are baddy baddy bad guys. Pretty much all the characters in the movie are one dimensional and boring af. As for the NPC's that are slaughtered by our main trio - they're literally a copy-paste of each other. I've seen same dude dying over 4 times, lol.

Enjoyment: There is no enjoyment. Don't watch this.

If i had to summarize this anime i'd say "Underrated Chinese Mob Psycho 100". Seriously, this show definetly deserves bigger audience than little poor 2000 something members on this site. (yes, I know not everybody has MAL but still, Scissor Seven is not popular at all, considering the fact that if it weren't added to Netflix then i'd never ever hear about it) Anyway, i'll try to keep this review short as it's second season so the only people reading this are people that are either familiar with show and are interesterd whether 2nd season is as good as the first one (It's even better) ... or people that have already seen it and want to compare their opinions to others.

STORY;
It continues where 1st season extra special episodes left us off. Killer 7 is trying to live his new normal life but he soon finds out that the country which exiled him is actually sending killers to kill him, and his friends in order to take over the island.

ART:
If you've watches season one then you know what to expect. If you haven't then it's children's fairy tale at first glance only to find out later during fights that it actually has bigger animation quality than some of the most popular shows on this site. It's not a sin ot call it Chinese Mob Psycho 100 as i said before. Also, i've noticed significant improvement if compared to season 1 which made my eyes sh*t with rainbow while watching.

SOUND:
It fits and that's it actually. Nothing special to remember.

CHARACTER:
They're getting improved.
*LITTLE SPOILERS BELOW*
-Killer Seven is discovering his past and regains some of his lost memories.
-Thirteen is slowly starting to have her little inner fight between her emotions and her professionalism.
-Some interesting improvements of 2nd plan characters. Grandma that i forgot her name is revealed to have quiet interesting backstory from her young days.

ENJOYMENT:
It felt like 10 minutes while i was devouring the whole season. And i'm hungry for more. OH GOD I'M HUNGRY, NETFLIX PLEASE FEED ME MORE.

OVERALL:
8/10, would forget and watch again

Story:
30 yeras after apocalypse, where new disease caused 1/3 of human kind turn into nasty, bloody and huge insects - we meet with Kidow. Kidow is an insect exterminator that in the opening scene happens to be escaping from a huge swarm of flying worms. When he strives to survive from that swarm he finds out that despite him and his friend - he's not the only one person trying to escape. Unfortunately for the other escapists - the car droved by them meets with accident in which driver dies. It turns out that these car passangers are father and daughter. Father dies - begs ... our MC to deliver his daughter to her mother and that's how the story begins.

Kinda cliche i have to admit, but later on in the story it turns out that that's not some random kid and her father wasn't some ordinary father. Saying something more than that could be considered as a spoiler so let's just skip it and say that despite on focusing on the kiddo abilities - the plot is also about creating a strong bond between Illie (that's kiddo name) and Kidow.

Nothing outstanding about the story, however there are some stupid moments like one character dying for at least 2 episodes if not more and saying that it's his end for tenth time already.
5/10

Art:
*KNOCK KNOCK*
-Who's there?
-It's Netflix CGI again, surprise!

I'm not a CGI fan (i doubt anybody is) however i've seen many worse CGI anime and this one isn't that bad. I mean it's still bad but as a CGI - this one is okay.
6/10

Sound:
I have no complains there. Music was good, voice acting was the same.
7/10

Characters:
They are bad. Kidow is a typical edgy boy that turns out to not being edgy behind the edgy mask later on. However, some of his actions are so stupid that it doesn't convienced me to like him. Actually not only Kidow actions are stupid. There are many stupid characters in the show. Like a scientist that claims that science is his top1 prority so he doesn't have any remorse to use his family in experiments. But then later on you see in the flashbacks that he actually cares for his family only to find out later that he really don't. Then again it turns out that he actually does. But maybe he doesn't? I don't know myself. I doubt any of the viewers knows. If some of the characters aren't stupid then later on it turns out that they're not interesting either. It was barely possible to me to name more than three of them after show ended.

Oh, I almost forgot. In the first couple episodes there was one awesome death. It was really well made. It was only a shame that creators didn't focused more on dead character and didn't postponed his death to late series. I didn't cared when he died because it happened too soon. Kinda wasted potencial that death was, but what can I say? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
4/10

Enjoyment:
Despite stupidity, bad characters and CGI animation I've got to admit that it was still enjoyable. Not to the point that i'd sink in but it's a good show to watch when you have nothing to do, not much time and don't want to think much over something. Just sit down, watch it and forget it.
6/10

Overall:
5.5/10 but MAL doesn't allow to give halves so i'll stay with 5/10

There was literally no review to this so i decided to do one by myself. It's the very first one that i'm writing here so i'll assume it's gonna be poor. Anyway, let's start:

Story: As it's the music video, the story doesn't play such a big role here. Let's just say it's about samurai looking for revenge (pretty cliche) and about useless violence in the world. That's it. Nothing special, but still it's a music video so it doesn't matter that much. 5/10

Art: Even tho almost every single episode is made of different art, there is CGI almost in every one of them leaving us ... with like 2 episodes with pure 2d animation. What can I say? It's made by Netflix, c'mon. 4/10

Sound: It's not the type of music that i like, but i'd have to say it's not bad either. Google says it's blues rock, psychedelic rock, boogie rock, and synth-rock. 6/10

Characters: It's the same case as with story here. It doesn't matter since it's a music video. 5/10

Enjoyment: Well this one really depends on your liking towards rock music and it's subgenres. Also you have to have high tolerance for CGI graphics.
In my case it's 5/10

Overall: Whether you should watch it or not depends pretty much on your music taste. I started to get bored in the middle of the show. I'd recommend it only to those of you who are rock fans. 5/10
