WARNING!!! Some people may be T R I G G E R E D by this review
Many people still stick with "3 Episode Rules", and with that kind of rules they write many reviews (and mostly) harassing that series because it can't fulfill their expectation (especially for anime with slow pace storyline). If you going to watch Re:Creators with that kind of rules, I recommend to ditch that rules, because on the first 3 episode of this series has very slow pace storyline (especially episode 2 & 3) and got a roller coaster ride after the first half of the
...
series. If you still want to watch this series, be patient and wait till the end to see this series true potential. So let's begin this Re:Creators reviews.
Story:
What if anime, light novel, manga, and even eroge characters can come to our world? The story of Re:Creators was begin when Mizushino Souta our "main protagonist" watch weekly anime entitled Eternal Symphony of Vogelchevalier. At the middle of that episode, there's a "mysterious girl with military uniform" fighting with Selesia Upitiria the main heroine of Vogelchevalier. When he thought it was a "Special" episode of Vogelchevalier, Souta suddenly enter the world of Vogelchevalier, right in the middle of the fight between Selesia and girl with military uniform". After a few minutes inside the world of Vogelchevalier, Souta back into real world, and this time with Selesia and the girl with military uniform. Why Selesia can go to the real world? Who's the girl with military uniform? and What is the relationship between Souta and the girl with military uniform?
The main concept of the Re:Creators is Reverse Isekai. As we know Isekai is a hit in this few years, and Re:Creators bring a fresh breeze for us who bored with ordinary Isekai anime and the idea to make the main antagonist is too overpowered make it even better and make us full of question and excitement about how to defeat her. But, nothing is perfect, right? There's several plot hole in this series, lack of characterization in this series and lack of consistency in storyline pace at the appropriate time. The main reason is too much "main protagonists" and that's make the main antagonist more likeable than our "main protagonists". So, I give 7/10 for the story.
Art:
Comparing to Ufotable, Troyca still below the level of them especially for the action sequence and to be honest I still prefer the Aldnoah/Zero artwork than Re:Creators. Aldnoah/Zero artwork look more dynamic and detailed than Re:Creators. But, it doesn't mean Troyca reduce their standard. They still one of the anime studios that got a high standard for their weekly anime release. You can see their hardwork when seeing the 2nd ending of this series. I give them 7/10 for this series art, this score is not fixed. I must watch Re:Creators in blu-ray edition to fixed this score.
Sound:
I like the timing and the way they used sound effect in Re:Creators, when the fight scene happen. The backsound, explosions, missile, magic casting and the other sound effect was perfectly fit and audible. More importantly it doesn't disturb the dialogue when those sequence happen. The voice acting is perfectly well, and with those kind of voice acting you can get to know the characters trait only from it, more than they can show to us in visual way.
For the opening and ending Re:Creators has 2 opening and 2 main ending. Composed by Sawano Hiroyuki, gravityWALL the 1st opening of this series was a big hit when this series airing for the first time, just like the 2nd opening entitled shOut that also composed by him. I prefer the 2nd opening especially the opening sequence and the lyrics. Because, it make us know better our main antagonist, and maybe sympathize for her.
For the ending we have NEWLOOK by Ayano Mashiro as the 1st ending and Rubicon by Sangatsu no Phantasia. I prefer the 2nd ending as well, because, this time the ending sequence teach us to respect the hardwork of the people who give us this anime and all anime in this world. For those who often harassing an anime series just because they can't meet your expectation just go watch this ending and see how hard they are trying to keep the anime industry running. With that I give 9/10.
Character:
What if Hatsune Miku using a military uniform with the trait like BlackRock Shooter? Well, you got our main antagonist Altair. What if Asuna coloring her hair red, and ride a giant robot with the trait like onee-san? Well, we got Selesia. When you watch Re:Creators, you will see the customization of all your favorite anime chara in this series and clash with each other. But because of that, the lack of characterization can be happen, especially when several new character emerge later. We must thanks to the voice acting of the seiyuu, at least know the traits of those characters because their performance. But, it doesn't enough for us to know better all of our favorite chara traits customization in Re:Creators except Altair. Because, when we summarize Re:Creators, we got "Altair's Revenge" and that's make this version of Miku become fans favorite and icon of this series and to see our favorite characters from other anime meet and fight each other its an own pleasure. That's why I gave it 7/10.
Enjoyment:
Did I enjoy this series? Yes. Did I recommend it? Why not. If you can't stand anime with the slow paced storyline, I didn't recommend this series. But, if you have patient and enjoying anime as it should be, Re:Creators would be a great series to test your patience, maturity, and teach you to respect the hardwork. Because it wasn't that bad like they say and it was a rare occasion to see our favorite chara from other anime (with a little modification of course) clash in 22 episode anime.
AND, for those people who judging and harassing an anime that didn't meet your expectation at the some early episode. Please respect their hardwork. Even if you don't like it, doesn't mean you must hate it. Give them a chance. Because on this day anime is more than 3 or 5 episode (except hentai). How you know a whole content of book that consist of 500 pages if you just read the 3 first page of it?

Sorry if my english were bad ^_^ Iron Blooded Orphans Season 2 (IBO S2) has already surpass my expectation. I have watched Gundam since Wing until today (IBO S2). Sometimes, i'll go to the classic one (Gundam, Zeta, ZZ, G-Gundam). But, this series really exceed my expectation. Gundam series didn't just about someone piloting giant robots fight and kill each other. There's always a deep moral value in every series, the political aspect, drama, and conflict around the main protagonist as the main dish of Gundam ... |
