Show by Rock(!!) over everything.
Anime Relations:
Show By Rock!!
A little ramble, but I thought I will update it and most likely a unprofessional review until one of these days I'll do one.
I first found out about Show by Rock(!!) (or SB69 for short) when about last year anime news sites leaked the first ever promo art of the band "Plasmagica", the fictional band full of main girls and even have a showcase of the GIANT "figure" (that was up for sale I believe) and I was like "Huh?" and then "Sanrio" label here and there and that shock me even more!
When 2015 would have SB69 on the Spring line up, I know I would go pick that up because I need more kemonomimi than just Dog Days!
And well...
It's weird.
It had both 2D anime and 3D chibi-animals.
And you get to fight monsters WITH MUSIC!!!
The trailer did not lie. It had a suspense sounding soundtrack with a very puzzled Cyan, the main girl and band leader of Plasmagica. I did not expect for the anime to go THIS FAR...
AND I F**KING LOVE IT!!!
I love weird and cute, something that only "Japanese formula" would work! And it pulled it off!
Also thanks to the anime itself, I learned far to late that the "franchise" was based on a mobage rhythm game...
AND I AM SOLD!
(No I did not spend any moolah. Yen prices is still insane!)
Thanks to it and the dedicated SB69 fanbase (not just the anime but for the game) I manage to start my game, played for maybe 1-2 weeks and slowly build up my "deck" of each color aliment for better/effective scoring!
So... If you like cute-quirky rhythm games but can't access a Japanese arcade, this game is a wonderful example of Japanese rhythm mobage experience with likable (cute and cool) characters!
Also I am glad it existed because I am trying to run away from the Love Live hype. (Even my sister is into it!)
The anime made me like all of the 5 confirmed bands as well the cameos (Shizuku Secret Mind and that yokai band). So don't be to surprised if I would gaga for Crow...
Do not be too shocked if I have to give this anime a 10 rating. It's like... All of the formulas that make anime "anime" and topping with cute and GOOD MUSIC and it's BASED ON A MUSIC GAME... I wish there are more fun cute anime based on music games... WHERE ARE YOU POP'N MUSIC LAPISTORIA!!!
