Synopsis

Mikan Sakura is a normal 10-year-old girl. Optimistic, energetic, and overall a very sweet child, Mikan is the complete opposite of the aloof, intelligent, and somewhat cold-hearted, Hotaru Imai. Despite their glaring differences, the two girls have been best friends for a very long time. So when Hotaru suddenly transfers to Alice Academy, a prestigious school in the city, her best friend is devastated—especially when she hears of the horrible rumors regarding the academy's harsh treatment of students. Beset with worry, Mikan runs away to see her best friend!

Upon her arrival, Mikan learns of "Alices," individuals gifted with various supernatural abilities, and that the school is an institution built by the government to train and protect them. Discovering that she has her own unique powers, Mikan enrolls in the academy, and, after a lot of trouble, finally reunites with Hotaru.

Gakuen Alice is a heartwarming comedy that follows Mikan and her friends' adventures in the academy, as well as their attempt to uncover the mysteries surrounding the problematic, fire-wielding student Natsume Hyuuga.

This is My Hero Academia before that came out. This is My Hero Academia if it was a shoujo and had mature and dark undertones to it beneath its cutesy exterior.

"He’s a hopeless romantic. He believes the purpose of life is to love and be loved. That’s why all the things he makes takes up a soul. If he stopped making stuffed animals, most likely he’’ll die. Imagine the dreams a person like him needs to keep pressing forward."

Gakuen Alice seems like your typical shoujo, like a Card Captor Sakura knockoff: Mikan Sakura, your "plain" heroine meets the tsundere, Natsume, who also wields fire ...

Mixed Feelings
Gakuen Alice is one of the first dozen shows I used to watch as a kid on TV. I remember loving it so much, but when I watched it properly as an adult much later, It was entertaining but okay at best.

My main issue is the plot. It is not very sophisticated and falls somewhere between a coherent storyline and a series of random events. This results in a winding story with no real focus. It occasionally moves towards plot advancement, but much momentum is lost by going off on tangents. While these tangents contain some of the anime's most enjoyable moments, they serve to ...

*NO SPOILERS*

Gakuen Alice, or Alice Academy is an anime that was adapted from the same name manga. But in this review I will only concentrate on the anime with just a few digressions on the manga that will help me complete my review.

1.) STORY (6/10)
I don't want to include the story summarie here because there is already a synopisi written up there. But all in all, if you watch this anime, the story is going to be interesting and easy to follow. It's a typical "going to a school were everybody has magic powers" story and "being the special girl in school, that is somehow ...
