| Wlep, that's all folks......Overall, not my liking. |
| Really dissapointing anime, specially two last episodes. |
 |
| Hm.. I love my Durarara and stuff similar to it, but this... i guess it was alright, but my expectations were a bit shattered. In all honesty, for anime with concepts like this, i prefer a story that has a beginning, a middle and an end. This one was episodic and some of the cases were just pretty underwhelming, while others were a bit more interesting, so it was a mix of many things and wasn't exactly consistent enough to say it was a good show. Turned out to be one of the disappointments of this season. 6/10, could have been something terrific |
 |
| I generally disliked the previous episodes which involved the gang heavily but I liked this last episode. I'm not sure why. |
| The ending was ok for an average series. The synopsis did a lot of unjust damage to this show if you ask me. When you hype up a show to be Durarara!! on steroids with gang violence and all that stuff, you get a lot of unmet expectations by the end of it. I loved how it touched certain important aspects of our current society in some episodes, don't get me wrong. It was enjoyable overall, but it wasn't what I (and probably many others) expected. I couldn't help but feel really confused in the beginning since I couldn't understand wtf is the direction this show's going to. Still a fun ride after all though, after I accepted the episodic nature of it and how the synopsis was complete bs. 5/10 |

Dokia said: I know that such things happen in the real world I was saying that I hate watching anything with gangs, yakuza or thugs because of these stupid people and their herd minded violence.Maou_heika said: Someone was killed, we don't know the culprit but lets just attack anyone and everyone even normal citizens wearing blue or red and children as well. I've never liked gangs so the last two episodes were just horrible to watch. I only watched this because the serious took up some real issues in some of the episodes. Overall 5/10. I mean this legit happens. You can be killed for wearing the colours or looking like someone from another gang. It's not far fetched per say. |

| May not be the best anime, but surely was enjoyable and worth watching to me, at least enough so that it got me to reply on its episode discussion topics lmao. |
| So, I'm not quite sure why I watched this other than the fact that it had very loose Durarara vibes. The episodic nature instead of an overarching story, despite having morals somewhat, made it a drag to watch. The animation was decent I guess but most of the characters came across as one dimensional and bland. Also the ending was quite predictable and barely emotional. At least many of the hits in the fights were clean I suppose. Overall, a "barely above bad" anime to me: 4.5/10 |

| Makoto can become a big time fixer! Since he has a lot of connections... good thing Isogai has been done for! lolz 4/5. 7/10. |
 |
| This episode made up a bit for the dumbness in the last one. Most of the gang members are uneducated, and easily manipulated. Kyouichi was still a bit dumb for falling for it, but whatever. At least he decided to longer be part of the gang and live a regular life (hopefully). I was wrong about them finding Mitsuki, but I did like how they set up Isogai. Isogai made a dumb decision to tell everything to Makoto, though. Guess he's not much better than the gang members he looked down upon. He should've been more careful about Makoto the moment Makoto revealed that he knew Isogai was the mastermind. He also didn't check to see if Makoto actually died...a classic mistake. Still, I liked how it ended, what Makoto said about how even though they sometimes hurt each other, they can also forgive. As well as telling them to think if there was any meaning to the fighting. And the ending line, "life goes on." Overall, I really enjoyed the series. I didn't come in thinking that there was going to be an ongoing plot, so that might've helped. I liked the self-contained episodes, and many of them were of interesting topics. I can also see why this was boring or underwhelming for many people. It was right up my alley though. This was one the top series that I looked forward to each week this season ^^ |
| This send off was awesome. They brought in all the cast shown throughout the show. Isogai was arrested. This goes to show that bullying is bad and that it doesn't always end well for either the victim or the perpetrator. In the end, it was a happy end for Ikebukuro👍 |
 |
| Takashi got one hell of a sturdy body. Makoto was a true mvp this whole series, stopping a whole gang war and saving multiple people's lives. Enjoyable series, while some cases could have been executed better, it was still interesting to see Makoto with some help solve the different kinds of societal issues. |
 |
| Pretty decent series, with a better than expected ending. I liked Makoto and he played the role of mediator to perfection. However, I have no idea how he thought he was hiding after the attack on King while wearing that big ass bunny on the back of his jacket; that was a dead giveaway, dude. Scored 8/10 |
| Not a bad show. But the entire time I was wondering about the "loved one" he lost? The wikipedia sheds some light about his girlfriend and stuff but either the show makers didn't include that part or it is yet to come. Anyways, I liked the story and the characters but I wish there was more to it. I wanted to know Makoto's backstory and how he got into this mediating thing in the first place and what motivated him to do so despite the risks instead of some vague ideal of justice. I also wanted to know more about Kyouichi and Takashi. But we never got that part as the show was episodic from start to end. However, I didn't like how quickly they rushed the last episode. Realistically speaking Makoto would be lucky if he lives past his 30s with the way he going about pissing off the dangerous kind of people with his justice. |

| Man that one went from tackling normal issues to 100 real fast. It should’ve had some more buildup to the gang war. A lot of problems were talked about that aren’t brought in anime platforms. I thought it was quite enjoyable, but the summary should be different because this is definitely not what I thought it would be. 6.5/10 because King and Dancer boy was underutilized. |
