NO SPOILER, as always.
The ratings of this series are weighted 'cause the strange format (and a bit for the genre)
Story: 7
That kind of series doesn't need a proper story to flow well, but they somewhat manage to keep on the stories of all the characters pretty well.
Art: 7
The most subjective rating of all...the art is good, not less nor more. Strange heads but nice facial expressions and good animations.
...
Sound: 7
Good work with the voice acting, OST not remarkable but perfect ( I dont' remember a single piece, nothing that stand out but all fit in their scenes). Thumbs up.
Character: 7
Wow. Why wow? Because I've found more "deepness" in the characters of this short romantic comedy that in a lot of work that really need a firm psicological character design.
Ok, I'm exaggerating it, but all the characters have distinct personality and they act well in both comic and romantic moments, in a simple but almost realistic way.
Enjoyment: 8
I've loved it.
Overall: 8
Technically far from the 8, but i think that the alchemy between all the elements that compose an anime is a lot more important than the single aspects.
The show is really fun, it can make smile and laugh, even empathize with some characters and being emotive with them, or angry, it depends on how you feel about shyness asd
Really light and with no claims, but still can catch the viewer.

NO SPOILER
What an easy task, this time, writing a review.
Here are my ratings
Story: 3
Yes, there's no story at all, to be honest; we're even far from "the story is only a poor mean to show the character's development"...what devel.? (Character: 4)
Art: 7
Art is pretty good, the mecha desing is nice, also in the way they use to merge them with magic elements.
...
Sound: 7
Nice OST, not memorable but fit the mood, and it's their job, right?
Enjoyment: 6
It was fun watching the mecha fighting scene, the animation was good so they were rather enjoyable.
Overall: 5
Watch it only if you're a mecha fan, otherwise avoid it.

Absolutely NO SPOILER
What a waste! Really, a tragical one. I mean, the art and sound parts are really good, i'm kind of a fan of Sawano Hiroyuki and here he has done a good job as always. There are some nasty pieces for my ears, but they merge well with the fighting scene, so thumbs up. The chara design isn't so original, and that's valid both for personality and appearance, but they've managed to represent quite well the different provenience of the characters, and that's enough.
Re:Creators isn't a bad series, it fatigue a little in the first part but then start to turn smooth, even
...
too smooth; in what sense? It's predictable, even for one like me that force himself to not think to future events with my eyes but only with the mind of the characters. I can't stand that a series with a nice potential isn't supported by a strong and "aggressive" plot. I think the problem is more in the script than in the direction, but ehi, i'm so far from being an expert in the field, so i'm going to stop the moaning now.
Overall judgement: more that a 6, less than a 7. If you want something easy to watch, that seem new and that needs no brain consumption, but it's pretty to eyes and ears, Re:Creators will be a nice choice. If you have great expectations leave them behind before it's too late.

Story: 5
Maybe i've could rate the story even less, because there isn't a real story, only a sequence of situation that aren't well bonded together. There could have been a story, but i don't really pretend it from that kind of anime. In my opinion is a great waste of potential and a "bad" planning choise, but the show isn't that bad, so i'll stop the moaning here.
Art: 7
Here is so much a matter of taste, people, the style isn't original and the animation not out of ordinary, but on that point i have to say that there isn't a reason for having amazing
...
animations for that kind of show, they only will result strange! All flow well and the art sytle and color are perfect for a school comedy/romance.
Sound: 7
Nothing bad to say about the sound compart...oh, wait, i really don't like the ending, but the opening is light and happy/energetic enough to make me forget about that! The ost ride on the same line, light and happy, so it fits the mood of "Kono Bijutsubu ni wa Mondai ga Aru!" perfectly.
Character: 6
Well, that will be brief: no originality.
The lack of originality in the chara desing and choice of personality isn't a "so bad" thing, alone, but you have to balance it at least with an original or strange way of interaction between the characters, if you don't do it the result will be poor. I gave a 6 because i like the "character type" that are present in the anime.
Enjoyment: 7
I don't know why but i like the show. Maybe because it was relaxing and without pretention/presumption, a simple show that take itself for what it is, and nothing more. There were some funny moments, nothing hilarious, but surely funny!
Overall: 6.5
It's not a 6 nor a 7, i want half points lol
If only they have put some more meat on the "art fire" and feast around it, the show might will became a lot more interesting!
Recommended for who search some light and slightly funny anime to use as a break from more "mental series".

Story: 6
Sooo much potential, people, really. My opinion in that case is personal and not 100% objective, because we aren't in front of a bad story, we are in front of a story not well told. I will not say anything about the ending, but more we approach to the final more all became...confused.
Regardless that few negative point the story remain rather enjoyable.
Art: 8
Wow. Ok, there is "moe" here and there, but the style and the animation of Kyoukai no Kanata is really good! Nice colors, nice movement and everything blend in pretty well; it's a party for the eyes!
...
Sound: 7
Opening and ending aren't so memorable, like the ost, but they are more than enough to strike the target. Great work of Risa Taneda, the voice of one of the main characters.
Character: 6
They have tried. Or at least i hope they have. The character design is good (but it stand in the art rating) but about their stories...mh they are lacking. What does it mean? Well, i think they have tried to give profundity to something that doesn't deserve, or simply doesn't have, it.
They are stereotype, and I'm ok with it, nothing bad, they work, and it's the reason why they reach a 6, even something more, but not the 7.
Enjoyment: 8
Yeah! Another high rating in the enjoyment, maybe more than the series deserve, but i really like Kyoukai no Kanata, it was a nice experiment for the Kyoto Animation, and the result is something that can really entertain!
Overall: 7
It wasn't good enough for awake real, deep emotions, but it was beautiful to watch, it worth the effort. Suggested for who want to see something light that can catch the eye and don't stress the brain in any way!

Story: 7
This movie is all about the "daily adventure" of Buddha and Jesus, who chose to make a vacation in the modern Japan...and that's enough strange, in a good sense.
We'll going to watch various "chapters" that depict different "daily", or anyhow common, situation, and the original way that the characters have to face them.
Despite the division of the movie in different "chapters" the time dedicated and the time's flow are well balanced and each story result interesting and funny.
Art: 7
As i usually say, the art have primarily to "fit" the kind of work that have to be presented, and in Saint☆Oniisan does it's
...
job, not less and not more.
So, not memorable but with some pearl here and there, during change of expression, for example.
Sound: 7
Good OST, nice insert/ending song and right choice for the voice of the main characters make the sound of the series good.
Character: 7
In Saint☆Oniisan there are only two important characters, so it would be difficult to ruin them!
Far from be deep, they are well characterised and the interaction flow well and it's funny!
Enjoyment: 9
Yes, i've loved that movie, it make me laugh and it's like i've really spent some time with that strange duo. I'm not used to watch movies, they usually make me dizzy, sleepy, but that one really catch me, from the start to the end.
Overall: 8 Good job!
I'm atheist. This movie talk about two saints, but didn't "hurt my sensibility" in any way.
It has concealed meanings or messages? Who am I for ruin your thinking?! Watch it and discover on your own! Have fun :)

Flying Witch...where i have to begin?
Fan of the "usual magic" anime series should think twice before watching this work, because it has almost nothing to do with the common magic that we are used to see. It has magic, that's sure, but it's different, more classic and, in some ways, more deep.
Story: 6
Why only 6? Because that series doesn't have a story, and doesn't need it, in my humble opinion.
The events of the various episodes are well managed, so the time will flow easily while watching.
Art: 7
What can i say...the "visual" part of the anime is not memorable, but it fits perfectly the pace
...
and the atmosphere of the series, and for me that's the most important thing.
Sound: 8
Nice voice acting and pretty op/ed. The main dish, though, is the OST; it harmonize with sceneries, moods and situations, giving a push on the emotions that the spectator feels.
Character: 7
I have to say it, as the story doesn't exist, even the characters aren't so original or deep, or have some sort of development trough the series...but they work, and the work pretty well.
With so many anime out there i think that's nearly absurd to pretend originality everywhere, so i don't give much weight to that point in my evaluation.
Enjoyment: 9
This series was a fresh wind that have traveled trough seasons, bringing along the scent of everything that has encountered, and the results it's something great.
It's a slice of life, the comedy part is not so funny, the "witch magic" appears maybe one time for episode, but the real magic is everywhere. If I have to analize every single element the rate will not be so high, but the show have a strange sort of alchemy that it was able to put all the parts in a pot, cook them at low fire and take out the best from all.
Overall: 8 well deserved!
