| anyone else wonder what actually happened to Roboto? maybe that was him as the goofy-looking civilian asking for Chisato in the last scene in Hawaii? 😁 |
| finally got around to watching this and will say i enjoyed it a lot Kurumi is my fave of the series while the main pair Chisato and Takina are nice though will say there was moments when Chisato was pretty annoying but yeah..... with that said im looking forward to more of this series when it comes hopefully that announcement was for a season 2 and not like some movie but guess we'll have to wait and see for more info to come and hopefully soon |

| Ahhh the sweetness... Good to see the girls in action in this finale. Finally everybody can have some peace with Majima out of the scene (even if it's for a brief moment... we never know). Chisato and Takina I love youuu What a lovely cast! |
 |
| Massive 'W' anime! Watching this weekly must have been an amazing experience because you had a whole week to feast on this happy feeling you get watching Chisato on screen :') |

| Majima's "bomb" was really fireworks. I find it fits his sporadic moments of mildness. Chisato ended up survivng in the end, which is very fortunate for her. Mika obviously anticipated she wouldn't finish the job herself. Really enjoyed this anime. It was very lively and well animated, with a host of vibrant or intriguing characters who reinforced nearly every scene against any risk of viewer boredom. The last two or three episodes felt more hacked together than I would've liked, but not to the point where I was unsatisfied with the show. |

| Wasn't a huge fan of these last 4 episodes. Starting from around episode 9 the overall quality of the writing took a huge nosedive (along with my generally positive opinion of the show). The best part of the episode was seeing the pink haired broad assassin lady get absolutely destroyed by Mika for messing with Chisato's heart. As for the rest of the episode, the less said, the better. |
| Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast. Yeah. I said it. |
| The show had a hard time keeping up with the first three episodes. A-1 fluff. But A-1 fluff is nice. Could've used more characterization...relied on cutesy a lot. Overall we didn't get a great big revelation that intrigues for more. If there's a S2 I'd hope they up their game, I'll be disappointed if it's more of the same. The characters are NOT yuri. But this is a cutesy show regardless and I liked it, and Joker Majima. The show also had a gay couple which seems like it must be controversial in old Japan. So, accomplished fluffyness. Fluffy ain't always bad. I'd really like the characters to have more motivation though. Either know more about Takina or something. MVP was Walnut and Chisato. A S2 would have to really come up with something for the characters to do that wasn't as dull as the backend of S1. Saw all of this coming, was let down not to get a twist in any way shape or form. |
| So Majima lives again and Chisato lives as well so all that drama was for nothing in the very end. I'd bet that Yoshimatsu still lives as well. Show started off really good and interesting, but then dropped the ball hard. The more serious episodes in the end were badly written and Chisato was really annoying with her goddamn goody-two-shoes attitude. Walnut best girl. 6/10 |
| Kurumi’s “aloha” at the end there had me rolling! So glad this had a sweet ending. I was fully prepared for a sad end like, the heart is right within grasp! But Chisato can’t break her principles! And then we have a bittersweet ending where Chisato dies and Takina stays at the cafe. So glad we DIDNT get that! Loved this ending, and loved the show. |

| This is such a weird ending... With the way it was going, I figured the end wouldn't be satisfying no matter what, but that's beyond everything I imagined. I'm still trying to figure out why Chisato's first reaction when waking up at the hospital was to flee and travel around the world, but well. I think I shouldn't try to question this anime too much because there isn't much that makes sense in this story anyway. I think my main problem with this show, aside from the plot holes and weird reactions, is that it didn't seem to know what it wanted to be. A comedic slice-of-life or a dark psychological story ? The anime never found a middle ground, and it showed. The problem is, neither of these two aspects weren't already very good on their own. At least the SOL was pretty fun, but the darker elements were seriously lacking some real depth. Chisato's character, to start with, is very questionable when I really think about how her idealistic mentality fits with the story and above all with her own behaviour. She absolutely wants to do good but couldn't care less about the world, refuses to kill but nearly willingly killed Majima by taking him with her when letting herself fall from the tower, had a mental breakdown over having to kill Shinji if she wants to survive yet is perfectly fine when she finds out she actually does have his heart now... And the other characters aren't any better. The only one I found to be remotely interesting was Majima, who wasn't a bad antagonist at all and could've been a pretty good anti-hero if he were the protagonist, but even his character had some weird aspects, the show didn't seem to know very well what to do with him or how we were supposed to perceive him. He still was the best character though. Well, this whole problem of "not knowing what to do" is a whole part of this anime anyway. I can't say I disliked it, I had fun at times, I liked most characters despite my annoyance at some of their behaviour, I found some aspects interesting... I'm just disappointed it didn't seem to try to be more and go in depth with what it had to offer. I give it a 5/10, and I'm curious to see if there'll be a second season, that last Majima scene seemed to hint at it so I'll probably watch it if it ever comes out. |

| Basically a fantasy buddy buddy cop movie. Mostly light hearted and cutesy with a happy ending with high production value. Everything seemed really animated and well made. It was hyped upped when first released and I can see why. Binged it. Let's see if anything else comes out of this as it was left open to more. |
| They did Chisato dirty by hiding the truth from her, and did Takina dirty by using her as Chisato's plot armor. |
| Good ending. Glad Mika stepped up as a father and did what had to be done for his daughter. Cute that they got a food truck setup in Hawaii, but RIP their regular patrons back home lol |
| Everyone got storm trooper aim its crazy Im more with the main villain than I am with the goverment there kind of just evil vs evil villain Sensei absolutely destroyed though Kinda feel bad for majima where the explosions were only fireworks |

| Always love a final fight with a good OP music playing in the background. The OP is still stuck with me, been listening to it repeatedly recently. Yoshi really is insane and dedicated to his ideals, he really implanted the heart inside of him. Chisato could never get the heart out of him, but Mika is resolved to do so. Chisato went on a journey to spend her last moments in peace, but didn't know that they already replaced her artificial heart hahaha. When Takina visits Chisato, she thought she's there to bring Chisato back, but its actually the other way around lol. Chisato took Takina and LycoReco with her on her journey, and this time its Hawaii! I love the ending, Chisato and LycoReco gets a nice change of pace and get to enjoy themselves travelling. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this show as much as I did, Chisato carried this one for me. 9/10 |

| This show was bingewatch-in-one-sitting levels of goodness and by far the highest quality original anime from the past decade. Its crazy how LycoReco came out of nowhere and became such a hit. They'd be stupid to not turn it into a franchise and milk it for all its worth so its surprising how we havent heard much news in over a year after its broadcast. There's no way we won't get an announcement of a sequel, movie, or spin-off by the end of 2024... right?! |
| im pissed at that ending. chisato lived like i wanted but that she ran away to some remote island annoyed me, probably stupid of me but i feel betrayed. i would have wanted a reunion between the two girls where takina hugs chisato while crying so hard that i myself begin crying. so now they have a van thing in hawaii. dont know what that "are you in trouble" thing was about, just helping people like they used to? also how the fuck is green hair still alive? there were hints that some guns are still in civilian possession and green hair is alive so things will continue to happen in tokyo but the main cast doesnt seem to care so thats probably it for the series, no second season. id take a short special spin off show with chisato and takina living happily. so yuri bait as there isnt enough new yuri to watch. im gonna go read a yuri manga actually. all in all i did like this show. their relationship was fun, "she is my partner!" actually. this exists: https://myanimelist.net/anime/54440/Lycoris_Recoil_Shinsaku_Animation |

| The final fight was pretty good, Majima is an interesting guy. His methods are terrible but his ideals are actually understandable in some way. I liked the way Chisato's vulnerability shown with her heart problem... gave way to a very emotional scene with Mika and Yoshimatsu. It was a very fitting end for him, so it seems Mika (not Yoshimatsu) had to do with Chisato getting the new heart; but Mika let Chisato think it was her hero after all. Good to see everything back to normal at Lyco-Reco and they opened a food truck in Hawaii that's neat. The visuals in this episode were amazing, the darkening city scene and the Hawaiian sunset scenes really good. This was a really fun anime I enjoyed it. |
| In a lot of other shows where there's a good and upstanding protagonist in combat with a chaotic antagonist who torments the protagonist in malicious ways, I usually see the protagonist suffering a lot as they battle their inner demons. Should they kill the antagonist? Do they want to fall down that slippery slope of killing their villains? How would they weigh their moral code against what they consider the greater good? I noticed before that Chisato is fluent in shittalk, and I'm really surprised by how she can casually talk to Majima on even terms. I think the best term I can use to describe LycoReco is blasé. Chisato is so confident and assured of herself that very little seems to phase her emotionally nor mentally. As such, she approaches life - and fights - in stride. She seems to comprehend Majima's goals, but doesn't seem to care enough to internalize his grievances with the world. She just wants to kick his ass (non-lethally) and go back to enjoying life. That being said, it does somewhat weird me out that she isn't phased by people dying, like the 4 Lycoris agents who died from Majima's ambushes. Chisato does get upset when people are wounded in front of her, but it seems like if something was completely out of her control, she doesn't have that much of a reaction? Majima's whole "we're alike you and I" speech does ring true to a sense. Chisato is definitely a good person, but she could make for a high profile threat if she ever had a reason to go rogue. Also, I've seen a Batman/Joker comparison, where Majima tried his best to force Chisato to break her moral code. There's an argument that Batman creates his own villains by not killing, thereby inviting a challenge for his villains to step up their evilness. I wonder if Chisato is inadvertently doing the same. |

I really am a sucker for hyperpositive, bubbly, cheerful characters like Chisato. So that alone made this series for a based blob like me. But, the rest was also really great. I loved the dynamic between Chisato and Takina, the story was engaging and well-rounded and everything looked beautiful. They really worried me halfway through with the whole heart shebang and was hoping that this story doesn't fan out like Plastic Memories. But all's well that ends well, I guess. Here's hoping to a speedy continuation in which form whatsoever. 9/10 |
| Really fun anime to watch and I can’t wait for season 2 it was an 8/10 for me!!😎 |
