Tokyo Revengers
| Well, let's see. This show's antagonist is pretty much none existent. Kisaki might as well be irrelevant at this point. It's all about preventing Mikey from going mental, but the series never shows the process. It just jumps forward in time and assumes you'll be okay with it. I'm not. There's also no central theme to this series. Like, what is it trying to say? Is it about what it means to be a delinquent and their nuances? Is about family and brotherhood? Is about saving your loved one? What is it? All I can tell you is, it's all over the place. What this series end up being is bunch of middle schoolers that looks like high schoolers going around acting edgy. You know what Tokyo Revengers is? It's just a man's edgy fantasy. I would have appreciate it more if the Mangaka delve deeper into a theme and the world of Delinquents. But hey, it's making him money, so who cares. |

| The mc is so dumb for a 26 years old guy. But the main reason is I don't really like the theme of the show. |

uhboof said: I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SHOW, the only thing I see wrong with this is their age which you can literally call them 20 year olds and would seem believable + its anime and everything is not going to be realistic so I can look past this but I understand why some people just can’t. So for the people who just don’t like this show, I would like to know other reasons of why you dislike this because it can’t be purely of this sole reason. I also would like to point out that I usually watch my anime in dub but when I started watching this, only the sub was out and HOLY, I watched dub with a friend from the beginning and I CAN’T take it seriously, very cliche and it quite literally felt like I was watching a completely different anime, the emotions were just not there. I hate takemicchi, i hate him, he just crying kid. dumb reason? Yes it is, but yeah i still hate takemicchi. But i will still watch the season 2 bcs manga readers says development character of takemichi is pretty good |

uhboof said: chocomayu said: mc is very unlikable, I heard he gets better later on tho. By theme, do you mean you’re not into fighting types of anime?The mc is so dumb for a 26 years old guy. But the main reason is I don't really like the theme of the show. I like action but something like gang or whatever its called, yes I don't like it. |

| takemitchy is like a crying baby like Deku, even he's 26 years old adult. He's not matured enough to call himself an adult. The characters are just middle schoolers but they act like matured wannabes. |

| This anime is nothing but a gang fantasy with logical holes and horrendous exposition. There is nothing human about this anime because it emerges from desires, delusion and dishonesty. It is awful to watch because it doesnt even care to keep a consistent art, it is awful to watch because it doesnt even care about doing anything but pointless vapid drama and glamorizing violence. It is just pointless and just a product of virality A will be forgotten and looked down anime 10 years from now when the whole trend disappears |
| nothing about this show is believable, it's like the mangaka didn't even bother about having things make sense, it's just very awfully written. also the animation is pretty bad and most characters are not likeable imo |
  |
| Mainly because the "things are bad but I magically travelled back in time to do it all again what luck" plot is just weak outright. It's never been done well. Then also the character designs are completely unappealing, and what little I've seen of actual footage is plain dull. |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |
| * Subpar shounen trying it's utmost hardest to masquerade as something much more mature. * Pretty poor cast of characters, only thing they're got going for them is their loyalty towards each other (nothing new, other shows have portrayed it better like Rainbow). A bunch of barely fleshed out 15 year olds who just scream and fight all episode long, would have been better if they were adults. * Inconsistent with the setting, too many unbelievable things happen in an otherwise believable, realistic setting. There's only so much one can take of this. * Far too much plot convenience for the 13 year old looking, 26 year old clown MC. * Average story combined with awful script, it can be painful listening to these characters speak. Can't get emotionally invested with the anime. The time travel concept in this anime is extremely weak so far. * Poorly timed comedy rears it's ugly head every now and then The animation is the least of it's worries and hasn't bothered me one bit lmao.... It has the feel of a gateway anime, draws in the all the green people with all the excitement and action packed scenes, the flashy looking characters, etc. |
| @uhboof OK, how about Mikey's brother dying from a single shot to the head from a pair bolt clippers, but everyone else, especially Mikey, can take tens of strikes to the head with an iron bar? And not only not die, but still manage to be conscious afterwards? GTFO of here. Or Mikey kicking Kazutora in the head whilst simultaneously picking that other guy up off the ground? At least be consistent with how realistic you want your setting to be. As far as I'm aware, this isn't a fantasy lol. Plot convenience, Takemichi managing to survive at least two explosions and only come out of it with a few scratches and bruises lol. Episode 12 for example. Inner monologue from the MC is shit, it's pretty much babying the audience, any episode would do. Talks to himself for minutes on end and doesn't accomplish anything most of the time lol. I think it was episode eight, the "comedy" they used when Mikey and Draken were fighting in Takemichi's backyard did not fit the scene at all. It was a serious moment and they threw that crap in there. Everything is just underwhelming as a whole. I also can't take a bunch of 12-15 year olds riding around on motercycles and running the gang and underground life seriously. |

| I could ask you the opposite. What do you like about this show?? Because I don't see single good quality about it. The plot is boring, the MC is a stupid loser, the characters are a bunch of edgy middle schoolers with seemingly superstrength who act unnecessarrily serious all the time (which results in cringyness), the animation and art are both pretty bad. The show tries to take itself very seriously but I just can't. |

| The MC, not enough girl action and relationship building is boring. There is character development, but it's done slow. I like this anime, however because of Takemichi I can't give this anime a score higher than 6/10. Girl action is to scarce, the love interest and a single somewhat ecchi scene in the karaoke. Hope things pick up in ep 13. |

| I haven't caught up yet to the latest episode so dont spoil anything for me. First reason is gonna be the animation for me. I mean It's a story with a lot of fighting it should have at the very least 1 good fight or something like that. LIDENFILMS fucked this adaptation up. Second reason is the fucking dumbass mc. I despise takemichi from the bottom of my heart(not really but i still hate him), There haven't been 1 episode where he hasn't cried yet, like come on man you are fucking 26 years old and on top of that he is like so fucking dumb sometimes it makes me die from the inside. The whole inner monologue thingy from him is unnecessary too. Another reason is probably the plot. Like where the fuck are they going with the story lmao. Some things here and there were pretty cool and all but I feel like it could have been way better if the writing wasn't shit. Like can they already explain how the time travel works or what? or atleast make the mc question it, he is using it so often like he already knows everything about it. Lastly the whole 12 year olds riding motorcycles and being fucking jacked and strong lmaoo. They probably could take out goku in a couple of years like holy shit. I feel like the story was written by someone who wanted to have a cool childhood... You could tell me to stop watching, but why would I when am this far in already and I mean I have finished way shittier anime so it's not a problem if i turn down my brain and watch this. |
