| Disclaimer | As a viewer, I am extremely picky with my anime and especially critical when writing reviews of them. Something to note about my review-writing style is that I feel that it's essential to keep mine short and concise. I do not want to write a novel review, and this is solely my opinion. If you disagree, then I respect your opinion. I ask that you respect mine.


Story |5|

I rated the story a 5 because it's not very original, although I can tell there was a little effort to make it original to its own genre/subject. By that, I mean making the ... main character a goth. I like that and I think it gives the anime a small amount of originality and interest. I just feel as though it's just like every other anime where the story goes, "Oh, a girl living with a group of personality contrasting boys where they either hate, love or grow to love her, and one of them ends up being her love interest of the show!" and it's getting very boring seeing the same ordeal after another. It's like the same salad but with different dressing each time. (By dressing, I refer to characters/character designs.)

Sound |6|

I gave the sound a rating of 6 because there was nothing too special or outstanding about the sound. It was alright, but nothing spectacular.

Character |6|

Once again, another rating of 6 goes to non-other than the characters. I rate the characters and 6 because they are all nothing to obsess over. They are definitely contrasting in personality and style, which is obviously a good thing. Overall, I just don't really see anything too special or likable about most of their personalities. The only character with a detailed personality was Sunako.


Art |4|

I rate the art/animation a 4 because let's all be honest, it's pretty bad. Yes, I understand they produced this anime early 2,000s but come on, Sailor moon has better animation than this. To be honest, I almost stopped watching halfway through Episode 1 just because of the art, quality, and animation. I don't prefer whatever style this animation was, the character design was awful at first but it grew on me a little by the last episode.


Enjoyment |7|

I gave the enjoyment rating a 7 since I finished the anime. I must have thought it was good enough to spend my time on to complete. I must admit it is funny, so it accomplishes its genre title of "comedy."

Overall |7|

Overall, I rate this anime a 7 because I might re-watch it in the future, but most likely only if I ever find myself to be extremely bored in the middle of the night and need a quick laugh.

DISCLAIMER! SPOILERS BELOW!




Personally, I love anime's with a bit of mystery and gore.

This anime exceeded my expectations.

STORY: 6 Fair
...
The story I gave a 6 only because the first season is only 12 episodes. Compared to the manga, the story is quite rushed. I would've preferred there be a few more extra episodes to give the two main characters some more animation of their character development. Their friendship was quite rushed and that made me not really understand how by the end of season 1, they seem to be in a relationship.

ART: 7 Good

I just think the art style is good. Nothing compared to TBHK of course, so I feel that the highest I could give the artwork is a 7. (and I'm being generous)

SOUND: 9 Great

Great sound, not quiet, EVER.

CHARACTER: 6 Fair

I literally could not even describe any of these characters' personalities in three words if I tried. Like I said prior to this, RUSHED CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT & STORY.

ENJOYMENT: 10

I only say this because I watched this anime in one night and did not get uninterested.

OVERALL: 9

My favorite character is Sniper Mask because of his mysterious and scary charm-like attributes. I loved the ending, but I hated the character that they killed off so that made me smile.
