Sparrow's Hotel

Having this be my first review you probably shouldn't take anything I say to strongly due to my lack of experience. However, I didn't think this anime was that bad compared to what others say.

I gave the story a 1 because this anime really doesn't have a story. But I would exempt this anime from this category merely because It is one of those anime that focus on trying to push in comedy.

I gave the art a 5 due to the fact that it isn't the best art that I've seen, but it also isn't the worst. I admit that the art is pretty bad ... for what could be done at the time, but it's art kind of make it unique in some regard.

I gave the sound a 5 because it didn't really stand out from my perspective but it also didn't not fit the anime.

I gave the character a 1 because the characters had no development whatsoever. However I think this anime should be exempt from this category as well due to the fact that it is not the type of anime that would focus on developing characters. and if it were the episodes would have been a bit longer and some of the comedy would have been cut.

I gave the enjoyment factor a 7 just because it doesn't take a lot to impress me. The anime wasn't the best thing ever but it was still enjoyable which is a category which some anime fail to achieve.

Overall I gave the anime a 5 due to it being an good yet not outstanding anime with average scores all around for me. However I feel that this anime is a hit for some or a miss for many more. I wouldn't stay away from this like some reviews say, but this anime isn't outstanding. Please don't take this review to seriously though because I have no experience reviewing anime whatsoever. Thanks for reading.

Sparrow's Hotel is about a woman who works in a hotel on the rowdy side of town. She is talented, beautiful, and just happens to be the hotel's bouncer.

Starting this anime I had very low expectations for it. People on MAL gave it a pretty lousy review and frankly, the cover image for the anime looks like crap. Surprisingly enough, the low budget production actually wasn't too bad in the first episode, or the second, or the third. I found myself laughing and really enjoying the show. The poor art quality actually worked for the show and its level of humor. It wasn't ... until the 7th episode that things started getting weird.

Have you seen an anime in which the MCs are anime creators themselves and the project they are working on goes through a massive change in the middle of production? Well, Sparrow's Hotel is a RL representation of that.

All of a sudden on the 7th episode it looks like the whole production moved to a different company with new artists and possibly new voice actors. It was very unsettling since I watched all the episodes back to back. The art style actually got better after the change, however, since it was such a big difference, it was very distracting. I couldn't get over the change in time to truly enjoy the rest of this anime.

All in all, give this anime a try expecting it to be what be what it is: a poor soul that seemed to want to do better but couldn't.
