7/10

Why the high rating? Okay it wasn't the best, but I still enjoyed it until the end! Jikan no Shihaisha had its good and bad moments. I'm a sucker for stories dealing with family, especially tragic ones and I think that's one of the main reasons I was drawn to this anime. Tbh, I had high expectations because I felt that the story had a lot of potential, especially after watching the first episode: Tragic Family Background + Ikemen/Bishounen + Time Eating Monsters + Action + Gambling Elements + Jazzy Music/Hyped OP/Beautiful ED ?! Count me in!

I even said that it was ... going to be my favorite anime of the season but, that was in episodes 1-2 ^^; I think my opinion changed after the new characters were introduced. After that, the pacing changed and I felt that maybe they weren't going to be able to resolve everything in just 13 episodes. Maybe it was because there was so much they could do with that amount of episodes, or maybe the manga is just bad, I don't really know. Nonetheless, that wasn't enough of a reason for me to drop it. To me it's either I like it or I don't. If I don't like it then I drop it, simple as that. If I finish an anime until the end, then that means that it was worth my time.

Is there better anime out there? Yes.
Will you miss out if you don’t watch it? Hmm, not really.
Is it worth a try? I think you should try watching a few episodes before deciding whether to keep watching or drop it. If you have the time, then why not? I sometimes end up enjoying anime that most people don't like~ (as you can see from my rating compared to the others hehe)


With that said, I will be reading the manga. Maybe, just maybe, the manga will make up for what the anime lacked. ^_^
