Read the manga instead. The animation presented in this adaptation is unfortunately nearly nonexistent. This adaptation simply didn't get the budget and/or care/love it deserved. It is such a shame because the manga is truly a hidden gem with an extremely unique take on a slice-of-life meets comedy and action genre. The characters are written to feel like real people unlike the annoying anime tropes that we're all used to at this point. The humor is subtle but really hits home and the story pulls you in and gets you extremely invested in what's gonna happen next. The manga is around 240 chapters of pure

This anime is an odd one as it is worth a one-time watch for combining multiple different genres, but not exactly because the combination of them is all that great, nor because each one of them is handled all that well individually either.
First, it is a comedy, with most jokes revolving around how the protagonist is unable to adapt to a common everyday life, and some minor ones about his non-sister trolling men. The first type suffers from no other character reacting to the situation in a way that comes off as funny, but rather having some “ah, I see” with a straight face type ... Dec 25, 2024
Many people have been telling me how this is an underrated gem. It has a good score in MAL, a little above 8 out of 10. Does this anime live up to that?
§ Overview An unnamed assassin, who has gained the notorious nickname 'The Fable,' is legendary. He can kill someone quickly and efficiently. Suddenly, his boss decides to have him stop killing people for one year. He and his partner are given false names under the pretense that they are siblings. Together, they try to live an ordinary life. That, however, doesn't go smooth as planned as they attract trouble pretty quick. § Notes ... Sep 29, 2024
This anime was certainly a rollercoaster ride - if my score was a reflection of how my journey went over the last six months it would be as follows:
How it began: 3 By the time it ended: 7 Let’s start with the bad: voice acting was unconventional, sleepy and sluggish. The first few episodes were so unbearable I thought the protagonist was mentally challenged (despite the premise of him being a legendary assassin), or that I had set the playback speed at 0.5x by accident. The animation felt cheap and the jokes were corny. I couldn’t drop the show fast enough. However part of me felt that something ... Oct 6, 2024
The premise of this anime looked really good and gave me hopes that this might be "IT" to watch and enjoy it fully. But although the plan looked good, it was kinda poorly executed.
The characters never really seemed to develop from what they are and that is bad news for anime that is 25 eps... i mean it would be ok for me for they to stay the same if it was 12 eps but not acceptable for 25 ep anime. Also if you think oh its anime about a legendary pro hitman and crime and its going to have some hot action packed and stacked.... ... |
