Nana Maru San Batsu or Fastest Finger First is an cliche anime similar to many school-based, guy joins a club'esque type of anime. It's about quiz bowl which is basically a competitive Jeopardy, with the main focus of answering the questions quickly and correctly.
Initially, I was expecting like an average 6 rated show, archetype characters, cliche story and so forth. Well, it turned out to be a lot worse.
Story (3). Basically, a nerd joins junior high, during the club ceremonies he is picked to join the "Quiz Bowl" team for a display game. "Now even though he is new to the game, he is extremely

Fastest finger first is over.
Finally, it was pretty bad. The concept at the beginning was cool. I don't know much about quiz bowl or even heard of the subject of it. Which is the premise of the show by the way. And I was semi excited to learn more about it through this anime. And from the anime's view on quiz bowl presented to me. It wasn't very exiting. It was about these trivia super geniuses that can answer a question without hearing the entire answer through various techniques. And apparently that is realistic to the actual thing. ...

Look, it doesn't really matter how amazing of a show you have if you start off with the most horrendous openings known to man. I can't actually believe a mangaka storyboarded this manga, got it approved by an editor, serialized it, kept it going enough for it to get an anime adaption proposal, and it actually getting adapted. It's crazy. This start is just that bad.
When you have a show be about a shy MC joining a quiz bowl club, how would you expect the first episode to go? Oh, how about looking at a hot girl's panties and getting convinced by that very girl ... Aug 7, 2017
Starter for 10 was a film i think i saw a few years back but memories fade and by the rate mine are fading I will be in an assisted care home by 2021. But that film is about quizzes, more importantly the true king of the "Sort of after The One Show" slot for the BBC, University Challenge. I've always complained how I don't think its fair that most team members are mature students who really take the title to its extremes. They roam these isles, bouncing from Anthropology of Dragon Dicks post graduate courses to Four Dimensional Town Planning at the University of

All the cliches you hate, wrapped in subculture you probably know nothing about, that will do little to make you care further about that subculture.
Story (3/10): Shy Main Character gets wrapped up in the "Quiz Bowl" club. His backstory is that his mom was a librarian and he's spent a lot of time in libraries so he's awkward af. He then proceeds to like quiz bowl club and the friends he makes in quiz bowl club. He's also the potential to become Jesus-kun at quiz bowl, so it's got that going for it I guess. That's it. Nothing more than the boiler plate stew of ... |
