This ending just felt repetitive, the characters never really click into me, the animation is inconsistent at times, and I get it's trying to be a leisure but maybe some episodes just felt like it was the same shit about the liquor shenanigans all over with the direction. Death Parade definitely is a miles better than this weak representation and everything in general is just a lackluster. 2/10

Man, I really thought I would like this, but what a fucking drag....

I don't through around the word pretentious a lot, but this anime would be right up there, personally speaking. Even the interesting historical aspects of the drinks became dull and overused, the human drama was shitty or boring, the bartender seemingly had all the answers, the character art was uninspired (I can only visualize the MCs face lol, might be a first), the story telling was weird and sometimes confusing, it just goes on...

The sound was great though, really complimented the tone of the show. Unskippable ED as well, cool live action sequences at the end of every episode. 4/10 overall.

Help, I’m having trouble figuring out.

What did they mean by “If a gentlemen thief gave money, what does a bartender give”?

Is it supposed to be a singular thing? Or multiple things? Like comfort? Rest for the soul? A hideout?

Or is it supposed to be a reference to the title of the episode. Bartenders serve alcohol/water of life and therefore Bartenders give life?

@GakutoDeathGlare Are you the same kind of guy as the first side character that was scared of bars? 😂 Pretentious really? The whole premise of the show was to show that Bars were for everyone and NOT pretentious 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ almost seemed like you only watched the first minute of the show LOOL

@Curtmc Why are you assuming I'm talking about the experience of going to a bar, pretentious? That's not what I said at all, moron. But nice strawman lol

You seem bitter about something. You should visit a bar some time 😂 Way to go with insulting me but saying nothing at the end of the day. Why are you assuming I’m saying you find the concept of bars pretentious when the whole anime is literally about… you guessed it. BARS.

An empty vessel makes the most noise? What’s pretentious is your review. You pretend to know what you’re saying and make it seem well written but it has nothin to it 😂 Come back when you’ve cleared your head of its rot lmao.

@Curtmc "You seem bitter" says the guy who quoted my old Bartender post cause he's mad that somebody holds a negative opinion on an anime he likes. I won't come back, because I don't care about this show lol, unlike you and your hard on for it. Pathetic.

Hahaha “comes back to insult” and then claims he won’t come back. I wonder who left a review on an anime from 2006 in 2023?? 😂 You’re a funny guy. All the anime making your brain rot my guy. I have no problem with negative reviews. It’s the fact that you even called it pretentious. It went in one of your ears and out the other cause your head’s so hollow 😂

Not a story but it's exposition galore.

I was amused by the info overload and the glamore of this job.

If only bartenders in real life are like him, who could replace shrinks.

I like this kind of recap about the Eden Hall as a whole and the job of Barman, the people that are coming here with their own problems and all the different cocktails and drinks with their meaning, "water of life" is indeed a good summary for everything around that, I really liked this anime's themes, very relaxing overall, going to check the 2024 version but this was solid. 8/10
