First of all, Weiss Kreuz is a completely terrible anime. It's a passion project created by the VA's, and it clearly shows every step of the way. That being said, this anime is so bad it's completely hilarious, like The Room.
Everything that happens in this anime is completely ridiculous. Nothing makes sense, emotions are muted when they don't need to be, people just casually die.
If you are watching the first episode and expecting a serious anime then you are sadly mistaken. This anime is absolutely ridiculous in every way. I watched it with a friend and as we watched we constantly tore this anime
...
apart like a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode.
Story:
Constantly ridiculous, and hilarious at every corner. The first episode a man dies from a van falling on him. Things get supernatural on occasion just because. People just die because the plot calls for it. It turns into an end of the world situation at one point.
Characters
Aya is supposed to be the cool guy but he just comes across as a sociopath half the time. Omi is supposed to be the ladies man at 17 years old, but all his relationships end in the worst ways and it makes me laugh really hard because it escalates. Yoji is supposed to seem like a cool ladies man but he's a disaster. He also is supposed to be 21 when he looks at least 30. Ken is a character in this show I guess sometimes.
Brad Crawford is my friends favorite and he's basically a mary sue with huge shoulders and he can predict this ridiculous plot with ease. Schuldig is a telepath but also he has "powers" that are not explained like ever. Farfarello doesn't even have a power he's just crazy. Nagi is a baby and like 15 and they have him kiss a 27 year old woman at a point because they forgot that she wasn't a fellow teen.
Sound:
So all of the voice actors are seasoned professionals, but this was a passion project, especially for Koyasu (Dio Brando's voice actor). Koyasu specifically who voices Aya and he's so serious about it, but again. Aya comes off as a ridiculous psycho. They also sing the ending songs because again, this is based off a boy band.
Art:
So like it's not the anime's fault that it's a 90's anime. Sometimes the art can be pretty but other times it can be a huge oof moment. For instance Yoji can be very cute sometimes, but other times his eyes are so spaced apart and his hair is super puffy. If you like these designs don't get used to them, legal disputes happened so the second season they look different. Yoji becomes a cowboy for instance
Enjoyment:
It's really funny if again you like anime that are really dumb like this. It's like really ridiculous and I would watch it for the sake of being bad. 10/10
