Bubuki Buranki felt like it was an experimental show to me. It was sort of like the way it was presented animation, story, character designs etc it's like Sanzigen wanted to test out their new original show using new animation software or perhaps they wanted to use the viewers as a test audience to see if the current direction they are going in is okay.. overall it just felt like this show was released as an experiment for something bigger in the future.Moving on from that, the overall story was okay, it wasn't too bad, nor was it anything special. The plot always felt like there was something missing or the writers just made things a bit too confusing.

The art, designs and animations rely heavily on CGI. I found this unique and maybe uncommon method pretty interesting, which makes me want to bring up the "Experimental theory" again, however I'm done writing about that... for now. Another thing I'd like to mention is the battles and action scenes. They are wonderful, beautiful, and most importantly for MECHA anime vibrant. Battles between Bubuki users are always exciting to watch! At times I felt like I was watching video game cut-scenes, in fact, I think that is word I want to use to summarize the animation and art used in Bubuki Buranki. The whole show just looks like a video game.


Soundtrack and background music, ughhh, they're alright, of course no specific songs used in this series stood out enough for me to like Em'. The voice actors were okay, I do however believe that Bubuki Buranki isn't going to be a role that the actors would want to brag about though.

Enjoyment overall, I found myself fading in and out, I mean Bubuki Buranki was well rounded to a certain extent and all however I just had a hard time keeping myself engaged in the story and plot. In the end though I think, nah, I strongly believe that Bubuki Buranki could've been a lot better than what was presented in the end. The plot and story could've been improved, character development etc. Overall I had to give this show a 7/10 because while I was disappointed with the story and plot, the amazing action scenes and fights actually made up for the mistakes.. So I don't want to rule Bubuki Buranki as a bad show so I think "fair" is good enough. Bubuki Buranki does have a lot of potential to be even greater, I look forward to watching season 2
