Synopsis

Eccentric and blunt, the walrus Hiroshi Odokawa lives a relatively normal life. He drives a taxi for a living, and there he meets several unique individuals: the jobless Taichi Kabasawa who is dead-set on going viral, the mysterious nurse Miho Shirakawa, the struggling comedic duo "Homo Sapiens," and Dobu, a well-known delinquent.

But Odokawa's simple way of life is about to be turned upside down. The case of a missing girl the police have been tracking leads back to him, and now both the yakuza and a duo of corrupt cops are on his tail.

Odd Taxi is really good, but its reception is a little warped, as it seems to have found itself in this weird situation of being fairly obscure, but also highly overrated by those who actually know about it, and this is dangerous because it leads to a hugbox where no one is willing to offer negative critique. Odd Taxi is a refreshing and clever mix of genres and styles, and it tells a complex but ultimately grounded and human story steeped in its well-construed mystery. Many have compared it’s conversational tone to that of Quentin Tarantino films, and as long as they’re referring exclusively to ...

Mixed Feelings
When I saw all of the overwhelming praise that Odd Taxi got, as well as its premise and character designs, I got a great sense of excitement and anticipation.

As I watched Odd Taxi however, I felt a familiar tightness in my chest. My brow went furrowed, my ...

I'mma drop the unpopular opinion right here, but I feel like I need to add a bit of balance. You know I wouldn't lie to you, ya'll too cute for that.

Ya'll. If Odd Taxi is a masterpiece as anitwit keeps claiming, then we REALLY need to take a hard look at our surrounding anime titles of this day and age. If this SHINES then we need to accept that everything else must be incredible DULL.

Odd Taxi? More like PLOT CONVENIENCE the anime, starring ANIMALS. I'd like to say it's original, but with the rise of BStars, BNA, Zootopia and whatever that ...
