Summary(If you don't want detailed analysis) : Barakamon is just one of those anime that makes you feel happy inside, the characters are lovable, the art is beautiful despite the story being a bit lacking in conclusion. Although this is a slice of life anime, so that's to be expected. The overall environment brought by Barakamon really gives a warmth to the viewers heart. When you see everyone in the small village pitching in when someone needs help, it really makes you think that living in somewhere like that would be paradise.
*Edit*: After re-watching this anime I realized that the anime really is a great
...
feel-good anime and probably my favorite slice of life anime ever.
Story: The story of Barakamon isn't that great, like most slice of life anime. The calligraphy part is really interesting though, and a unique spin on the slice of life genre. The story leaves in an open ended style which could be good and could be bad depending, although the story really isn't what makes this anime so great.
8/10
Art: The art in Barakamon is really amazing, Seishuu Handa is a really good calligrapher. (Oh God that joke was bad) Jokes aside, all the characters look amazing in the anime and the scenery also looks nice. Since it is in the country the art is able to capture the trees, insects and the buildings really nicely and in my opinion Barakamon has one of the best art styles of all time.
10/10
Sound: The soundtrack of Barakamon has a really cheerful part to it. It is sort of similar to My Neighbor Totoro, in terms of the soundtrack, but also has its own unique parts to it. It is one of those soundtracks that you would want to play in the background of your life.
9/10
Character: In my opinion characters are really the make of break of an anime for me. In Barakamon the characters are its strongest suite. Over the course of the anime all of the characters develop around each other and learn from each other. This really makes the anime all that much better. Character development in this anime goes at a good pace and makes you fall in love with the characters, and feel empathy and joy alongside them.
Enjoyment: Overall Barakamon is probably my favorite slice of life anime and made it to my top 3 favorites of all time. Sometimes I feel like newer anime is just generic and already been done 1000 times. But it's anime like this that are the reason I watch anime.

Summary: Bakemongatari is the first of the infamous "Monogatari" series. This anime combines interesting art style with vast story to make for a great anime to watch. For those who like supernatural anime or anime with a great story this is a great anime.
Story: The story in this anime/series has a very in depth story and it is told in depth little by little so the viewer will understand why things are happening. As you watch more you have those "Oh I remember when they talked about this" or "Now I get why they act this way. This makes you want to watch more purely
...
for the story.
10/10
Art: Bakemonogatari uses a unique art style to tell the story of the anime. The characters look good and so do the backgrounds. They also use images between animation to show how characters are feeling and what is happening. If you don't understand what I mean just watch the first episode.
10/10
Sound: The soundtrack is interesting to say the least. It uses piano and some synths to tell how intense a situation is. The voice acting is also done well in this anime, although sometimes it is hard to tell what the characters are feeling just through the voice.
8/10
Characters: The characters of Bakemonogatari all have unique personalities with in-depth back stories. This makes you interested in getting to know that characters and such.
9/10
Enjoyment: I enjoyed Bakemonogari and think that if you haven't seen the Monogatari series you should give it a try. It is definitely a great watch.

Summary: Nisekoi is a more modern take on the harem genre. So if you find harem cringe, just stay away from this. If you're like me and love harem, this will definitely end up on your favorite anime of all time.
Story: I don't usually like anime where people pretend to be lovers, but Nisekoi is the exception to the rule. Especially when the girl is a tsundere! The other characters like Onodera and Tachibana really add to the story and make the "slice of life" enjoyable to watch and very entertaining.
8/10
Art: The art style of this anime is something you just fall in
...
love with. The character's movements and how the art conveys emotion are definitely what I look for in all anime. And of course the overall looks.
9/10
Sound: The soundtrack really suits the situations in this anime, which is a defining factor in whether many romance anime are good or not. Voice acting in this anime also really suits the characters. The lively characters in animation have a lively voice etc.
9/10
Characters: As I stated before I love tsundere. Chitoge Kirisaki is one of my favorite characters in this anime. The other characters like Raku and his harem also have great personalities. They are all unique and there is definitely controversy over who is "best girl."
Enjoyment: Overall I really liked this anime and had a great time watching it. I can't wait for season two and am up to date with the manga. But until the GO TEAM CHITOGE.

Summary: Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu is a great anime. I feel that it makes the best out of something creative and does that to the best it can be done. The characters aren't good at much, but sure give it a go.
Story: One downside of this anime is its story. It isn't in depth and back stories aren't really explained, but in my opinion the positives outweigh this negative. With funny jokes and the only anime where a character uses the word ghetto Baka to Test is a great anime despite the story.
7/10
Art: For those who like the new style of art this won't
...
be as appealing at it really is a 2010 style in this anime. I personally like the art and find it appealing to look at. The chibi summoned beings are especially kawaii.
8/10
Sound: The soundtrack of this song is nice and has some good parts to it. I fell especially in love with the 1st ED. The voice acting is also good and fits the characters well.
8/10
Characters: This shows best quality is the character development. As the characters progress their personalities and grades you fall more in love with them. As they grow closer together you fall more in love with the characters.
10/10
Enjoyment: I really enjoyed this anime and it was great to watch. The combination of character development and art style makes for a good anime overall.

Summary: Good Ending is an amazing manga for those who love romance, like myself. It is my favorite manga of all time, and I have read it two times in one week.
Story: The story follows the high school years of the main character, Utsumi. I love these types of stories as the reader sees all the character's perspectives and the plot develop's throughout.
10/10
Art: The art in Good Ending was the most amazing thing I have ever witnessed. The way the conveys emotion through art is outstanding, especially with Shou-senpai. This makes the story very enjoyable to look at and you never get bored of
...
the art.
10/10
Characters: This is by far the best part of the manga. The way the characters are brought to life is the best part of this manga. The emotions and hurt shown by the characters is an outstanding quality that this manga has.
10/10
Enjoyment: I read this manga in less than a day. And I barely read manga unless it is better than the current anime I am watching. This manga definitely had me hooked on every chapter.
10/10
Sorry this review is a bit lackluster, I cant put into words how good this manga is.
Overall:

Summary: This anime is a great comedy. You already know an anime is funny if the main character's goal is to have 1000 **** buddies. This isn't something you watch for an amazing plot, but a great casual watch.
Story: As I previously stated, this isn't an anime to watch if you're into a deep plot. It is more an anime to watch if you're in it for the laughs. If you're not into that then I suggest watching something else.
7/10
Art: A lot of anime with my favorite art is from 2010 and this is no exception. Since I started watching anime a lot in that
...
year I guess it's nostalgia. I like the way the characters and background are drawn in general.
8/10
Sound: Since this is more of a comedy, the soundtrack isn't amazing. Although, the voices are done well. There isn't much to say about sound in this anime.
6/10
Character: I like the quirky personalities of the characters, which makes for a good time watching this anime. All in all the characters were great in this anime.
9/10
Enjoyment: This is one of those anime that you can just binge watch all of the episodes. Since you don't have a story to follow, the anime is an easy watch.
9/10

Summary: Amagi Brilliant Park is a enjoyable anime if you would like to see the MC and his friend build up towards their goals. It has an alright style of conveying the characters emotions, although it has unfinished romance between some of the characters which i don't like happening in anime I watch.
Story: The plot for Amagi Brilliant Park is certainly original. I haven't seen any other anime with this plot and it makes for a good change. Although they do explain why they have to run the park, I would have liked more detail in that aspect. The originality makes up for it though.
...
8/10
Art: The art in Amagi Brilliant park catches the eye with it's style of characters. Recently there has been a development in art since the release of 1080p resolution. Well, I guess that isn't recent, but you get the point. This anime uses the new style of art - and well. 9/10
Sound: The soundtrack isn't something amazing, but it suits the anime well. It makes for some emotional scenes even though most of the anime is a casual watch, and is not one of the anime that gives the feels for me. The voice actors perform well in this anime and suits what you think the character would sound like. 8/10
Characters: The main character is a bit generic, but is one of those "never give up" characters, which suits the anime. For me the backstories could have been told in more detail, but that is not much of a problem. Overall the characters were good. 7/10
Enjoyment: Although I did enjoy this anime my overall opinion is mixed. I loved the art but the only downside was I would have liked more character development, although the characters were thought out well. 7/10
Overall 8/10
