I don't even know where to start with this review. This Ugly Yet Beautiful world started out strong. The first episode was really good. But then everything just went down hill from there. The concept was good, the storyline was good, there was just some rough areas of this anime.
I'm gonna start this review with the pros of this anime. The storyline, I thought, was very interesting. The concept of two girls coming from space and taking human form is what made me want to watch this. The characters are okay. Some of the characters are just unneeded and unwanted in my opinion. I thought that ending was good though.
Okay, now the cons. The anime started out strong like I already said. The problem with starting off strong is you have to stay strong. This anime, unfortunately, didn't. Episodes 2-8 honestly, I don't even want to call them filler episodes because some of the episodes didn't even tell you anything. Some of the episodes were just really unneeded. I watched the dubbed version. If you watch, be prepared for Hakari's voice because her voice made me want to just watch the subbed version. I found that this anime turned more into a romantic drama because of all the love triangles that happen. There's a love triangle between Takeru, Hakari, and Mari even though Takeru and Mari are cousins. There's also a (family) love triangle between Ryou, Kimi, and Akari. I feel like you could've probably watched the first episode and then the last 3 episodes and you would've understood what happened. If this anime was over 12 episodes, I probably wouldn't have finished it. There's also a lot of unnecessary nudity.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend this anime to someone. Even if I did recommend this to someone, I would say to just watch the first episode and then the last 3 because those are really the only episodes you need to watch. read more

So when I was first read the description of this anime, I was a little skeptical about watching it. I read some of the reviews and that is the main reason I decided to watch it. When I started it, it didn't really impress me that much. The storyline was okay. Some of the characters are a little over the top but overall, their personalities mix together really well. While watching this, I found myself making myself watch the rest of the episode because it was so boring. A lot of the episodes were filler episodes, just telling you how each member became a part of the host club and Tamaki's relationship with them.
So i'm gonna start with some of the pro's. The anime is very entertaining. The over the top characters are a huge reason for the funny moments of this anime. The anime also has a wide variety of characters. There's the 'prince' Tamaki, The twins 'Twincest' Hikaru and Kaoru, the boy lolita Honey, the quiet tough guy Mori, and then the more level headed characters Kyoya and Haruhi. Each character also has a deeper past that may surprise you because of all their happy and bright personalities. The concept of a club that entertains girls is also a very interesting idea.
Now, some of the cons. One major con I had was the filler episodes. I don't know about you, but I like it when something interesting happens within an episode. It keeps me watching. That's what makes me want to watch the next episode and that's exactly what this anime was lacking. I found that after watching the next episode I wouldn't want to watch the next just for the reason that I didn't think it was going to be good. I also feel like, you needed to watch the filler episodes because they would reveal something about someone's past that would make you understand them more. That was the only major con, but just that one con made it so hard for me to finish this anime.
Overall, I don't think I will be rewatching this anime anytime soon. I would recommend this anime to someone wanting to just pass time though. read more

Fruits Basket was the first anime I finished and I absolutely loved it! The story is very unique and makes for a very good anime. There are very funny moments that makes it enjoyable to watch but also has more serious moments. I loved the characters and all the Sohma's fit their zodiac sign. Although Tohru is somewhat spacey, Yuki and Kyo tend to help her. The only episode I didn't not particularly like was, I think it was episode 17. It was about the Prince Yuki Fan Club. It was just a filler and quite frankly, very boring. There are 26 episodes and they're each about 20 minutes long. Overall, I do recommend you watch Fruits Basket. It was amazing! read more
