Baccano! was outstanding for what it offered it'll hook you with the story, you'll want to know what's happening in the next episode and you will want to be careful and pay attention to the story, so you can understand more and more when you put the pieces of the story together and the way the story is told it's confusing at first but you will understand and like it.
Story
The style of the storytelling in Baccano! is unique, there are more than 1 MC, around 15 in which the storytelling manages to cover them in sequences and then jumping to another character all of a
...
sudden, you can imagine the confusion and yes it's confusing but that's why it hooks you, you want to understand and put the pieces together for the story that you're watching making sense, and by having multiple individual storylines you will see how the characters met and how important they are to the story. It's outstanding.
Art & Animation
I wanted to score the animation properly, because even if it's from 2007 and i'm the one who watched Baccano! just now, i got to say that it was very good but it could've been better, but the art style and animations were very good and enjoyable in almost every aspect.
Sound
The music in Baccano! was accurate, the jazz from the OP was damn good, not everytime you stumble with an OP that you want to listen and see over and over and in the middle of the OP it has scenes from the previous episodes after the introduction of the characters is done, the background music for the comedic and serious parts were just on point, the voice acting made the characters alive, it was amazing to listen to the characters they were unique and the ED song was good, it was a ballad. Overall it was outstanding.
Character
What can i say more than, they were amazing, it has a mix of everything, there were like 15 main characters and not to forget the support characters, as i stated they are unique, some of them are psychopaths, some of them good people, bad people, others were quiet, cowards who are brave inside, others were happy fools no matter what, i don't want to get into details because knowing them in every episodes is a part of the engaging story.
Enjoyment
This is one of those animes that you could watch over and over and you won't get tired of it, the story of the characters is enjoyable and that is one of the best parts of the anime, the transition between the intrigue, the comedy, the violence, the storytelling, the music, watching the OVAs is a great addition too, those are the eps. 14, 15 and 16. One thing that i thought was that i couldn't decide if i didn't want a 2nd season because how well it ended (defenitly wanted more OVAs) or if i wanted a 2nd season because of what one of the characters said (The Subdirector). This was outstanding.

I was recommended to watch Shigurui, knowing that i like the Edo and Sengoku era i was obviously going to watch it but till i ended the other ones that i have listed but i was told that this was accurate on the dark side of the samurais and how despicable they were and how mature the art and story was, and i was convinced to watch this anime before the other ones.
Story
Story is really mature, it's confusing at the beginning because there are a lot of flashbacks and you don't realise those are flashbacks at the moment but later when you are tying the
...
pieces together you get whtat's happening, may be boring for some people to see that the story advances slowly, but it has something addictive and keeps you watching the next episode, don't expect a happy story, is dark, in the first minutes after the OP of ep. 3, i was ''Oh no, everything but that kind of things'' but i knew what i was into so i kept watching it, the english name of the anime is Death Frenzy, so expect that in cruel ways, the bad thing is that they didn't conclude the story in the anime at least and that can be annoying for a lot of people and i saw it was Madhouse the king of ''Watch this unfinished ending by reading the manga,'cause 2nd season ain't happening son'', yeah they made this anime, and it was like with their 80% of animes they release, they don't make 2nd season, only for the other 20%, so i googled the parts that were not explained and how it ended, overall was great.
Art & Sound
This two go hand to hand, the dense and dark atmosphere, with a mature art style and the fit music for the samurai theme with sometimes silent parts were great, i'm not fan of the gore, but i didn't mind at all the gore in this anime, because of the samurai theme, it makes sense, it was almost like this back in the era where not everyone were respectable samurais but there was the despicable ones, both Art and Sound were great.
Character
I can say that 99% of characters were really despicable, but that's why this is great, it makes you dislike them but at the same time like them a little (well maybe just Fujiki and Ushimata) and you get to see how different they were, i mean different ways of being despicable, Iwamoto and Irako being the most despicable characters, you have to see for yourself, they were great for a samurai setting, as i stated the thing is that they didn't clarify how was it that Fujiki lost the arm (NOT a spoiler the arm lost, you see him for the first time like that on Ep. 1, but they don't explain it) unless you google it or read the manga, and that's what i did to find out, overall was great.
Enjoyment
I really was able to enjoy this, being careful to follow the plot and it was great overall.

Haven't read the manga but i know the anime and the mango are complete opposites, while the mangoose is more tragic in nature, the anime is more comedic.
Story
The story is about a girl (Ririchiyo, who in fact is a Youkai) who wants to be alone in this special mansion, because she tends to make people go away with her harsh words, she then meets this man in this mansion (Soushi) who appeared all of a sudden and tells her that he will be her SS, she wants to make him go away but she fails because he knows her from a long time ago, but
...
she can't remember and that's where their relationship could seem close but it's distant at the same time. The story was good, but from what i read from the manga difference, it could have been outstanding and thought ''why didn't they adapted the things like that?'' tho i didn't change my score on the story because of that, it's just that it was just good for a supernatural rom-com, nothing new to see but keeps you entertained, overall was good.
Art & Animation
The art style and animations were very well made, nothing much to say, i liked it and felt it was very good.
Sound
The music was great, the background music matched the moments and were really enjoyable, the VA and the OP were great, there are different ED and all of the were really good, specially the one from Ep. 5, that one was hilarious, overall was very good.
Character
The character development was good, they were really memorable even tho they have weird names you can remember their personalities and all of them were funny and interesting.
-Soushi could seem the typical guy who is in love or tries to be the kindest guy with the girls but he's not, and sometimes maybe you feel he's too kind for your blood to handle but that kindness is presented with comedy and it was ok and i was surprised but kinda expected his back story.
-Chiyo was really good and you can feel the chemistry between Soushi and Chiyo.
-Karuta for some reason was adorable.
-Natsume is funny whenever he talks.
-Rensho was damn hilarious and the music they put on him everytime he transforms made it even funnier.
-Kagerou was funny with his S and M division of things, and the support characters with their little on screen time were funny too, but it wasn't perfect and it showed at times, overall is good.
Enjoyment
I have to state that the comedy is a strong point in the anime for you to enjoy it and the romance was satisfaying even tho it's almost at the end, not to mention the music and characters made it more enjoyable; It has flaws and if you have read the manga obviosly you won't like it because the story has a lot of changes for the anime to be more happy, the ending was good and i wanted to see more after seeing their dialogues, the OVA is really great, go watch it too, overall the enjoyment was very good.

Mondaiji
I just finished Mondaiji and i wanted to end this in one day but it took me 5 days to finally relax myself from the things i was doing and finished this already, i felt this needed more episodes or another season because it was short, it has just 11 episodes counting the OVA and i wanted to see more, i felt hooked to follow the story and what is to come for them.
Story
The story revolves around three characters from different times but from the same world and they receive an invitation because they have powers and they're needed, all of a sudden the three
...
of them are falling from the sky to this fantasy world they've never seen before and they meet Kuro Usagi and she explains them the situation and ask for their help for the community that is called ''No Name'' to rise up to be a great community with their aid, Azuka and Kasukabe agree and Izayoi accepts to help but later. The story is very good, it's well paced and really well adapted, it's not perfect and not something we haven't seen before but it makes little mistakes and it's solid and interesting.
Art & Animation
The art style wasn't amazing, and this anime is almost recent so they could have done the animations and background art style even better but it was good overall.
Sound
The music was great, the OP is really enjoyable and the ED is really funny, the voice acting was very good and the background sound and music fight was great.
Character
The development was great for being a 10 episodes anime, they give you what you need to know about them and make them interesting since the beginning and how they get to develope their powers, Izayoi is overpowered and i wanted to know the reason, we don't get to know Izayoi that much but you only ask yourself that at the end, Azuka and Kasukaba were interesting and well developed, more than Izayoi in the sense that we get to know a little more about them than Izayoi, Usagi was a great character, every episode knowing a little bit more about her and is surprising how badass she can be, there were some flaws with support characters and the Main ones but overall was very good.
Enjoyment
I really enjoyed this anime but i felt it was too short and needed more episodes but that's my thought of wanting more, it was fun to watch this, at first i saw Izayoi a bit like a douche and cocky but at the 2nd episode and from that on he was an overpowered cocky badass, but as i stated it was short so it was a very good enjoyment.

An anime that plays well with your emotions with great characters, that it makes you forget all the unexplained in the weak but still good story.
Story
The story was original, funny and dark with a transition of comedy and drama in every episode and almost every character had a ''sad'' past, it hits you in the feels, at least to me and a bunch others it seems, the thing is that is filled with plot holes and things that didn't make sense, they couldn't bring a more elaborated story and is because a story like this needed more episodes, so the story could've made sense by
...
explaining those plot holes in a 24 episode anime, the story is about a guy named Otonashi who arrives to the purgatory but he doesn't remember anything (Possible spoiler but not really: this one is a plot hole, even if they tried to explain it with another thing, it didn't make sense, Otonashi came later to the purgatory but dies first in his human life before the (white hair) character that was there first in the purgatory but dies years after him in human life, it's stated that they arrive there instantly after dying but he wasn't there neither did he reincarnate, so how was that possible?) about his death or his life as a living person (obviously, he will remember in the last episodes and is just a sad story tied to another character which i already stated made no sense for him to be arriving after her in the purgatory), a girl appears next to him with a sniper rifle and tells him that he should join them to fight against god (they find the truth about ''it'' which only raises a bigger question that stays unexplained) and a girl they call ''Angel'' (who i don't want to spoil by writing anything more about her) he doesn't believe this and goes to talk to ''Angel'' and gets killed because he told her to (and this was a story changer, if he wouldn't ask her to do that, the story would've been a lot different if you think about it later on) he awakes again and joins the SSS where Yuri the girl with the sniper is the leader of and from then to the end the comedy-drama transition starts, where they need to fulfill their dreams to disappear (tho reincarnation is a possibility) and they never explain where they go, if they resurrect into a fly like they joked about or if they just go to heaven? they don't explain a LOT of things. Overall the story is still good because the characters make the story more acceptable but is the weakest part of the anime.
Art & Sound
The animation is great despite being from 2010, the characters design looked very good but they could've done a better job, the background for the dramatic scenes in combination with the music was great.
The sound was great, the VA cast were very good and the music was perfect for the scenes and the OP is just beautiful. When you end this anime you'll want to cry somehow just by remembering that OP (i almost cried just remembering it right now) and the ED was good, the song for episode 10 and 13 Ichiban no Takaramono destroys your heart and even more in the last mins. of episode 13, that combination will make you cry to no end. Overall both art & sound were great.
Character
The development on almost everyone was very good, i can't go deep on this without spoiling, so i just have to say they were great but a couple of them didn't make sense on their stories and you will find out the two of which i'm referring about and i still have that question but even with that nonsense those two are two of the best characters; I wanted to know about the others and even more about TK which was a mistery, but why are they in purgatory? you don't get a couple of characters back stories and it was a let down how they ended but the characters were very good in general.
Enjoyment
Despite the big plot holes, the things that didn't make sense, the questions unanswered, despite the negative things, the enjoyment was great, you will enjoy the action, the music, the characters, you will cry in the sad dramatic moments, cry because of the songs, because of the really tear jerking episodes, it's just a trip of feels, the last episode destroys you, it was too much to handle because of the great VA performance but with a big plot hole in that part (already stated) and the last 3 sec. of that episode didn't make sense considering the previous heartbreaking scene (that already had a plot hole) but all in all it was a very good ride.

Maoyuu Maou Yuusha
Maoyuu was a great anime, at least the first episode and not because i didn't get the story, i got the story and i found it refreshing and really relatable to real life (Economy) but it's because this promise you that there will be romance but the romance only existed the first 3 or 4 episodes and it was a light romance, this anime was perfect to be romantic too but they wasted the oportunity and the story was rushed and it can be confusing for a lot of people when they talk about economy and how they use it and i was
...
entertained by that.
Story
The story was good, it's in fact a little complicated if you don't pay attention or else you will lose the idea of what the story is about; It's really about economy politics most of the time, mixed with war between heroes and demons or between countries and i found that combination very good the ending was an open ending where you can clearly see they wanted to make a 2nd season and leaves you with intrigue, and the romance, don't expect romance, not even in the end, that end was WTF happened that they don't act like if they love each other and that was annoying, so overall was good.
Art & Animation
The art style on this was beautiful and very good, it really felt like a fantasy world, with a palette of colors that matched the story and the theme, but there were some flaws that you clearly will see.
Sound
The sound was just amazing the background music was great the OP and ED were amazing, they really fit the theme, the voice acting was very good but i expected more for some reason, overall very good art style.
Character
The characters were ok, i liked the fact that they didn't have a name, their names were their range like Heroe or Demon King, Prince, etc. i really liked a lot Maou she was almost well developed, she was really smart, she is unique for me, Yuusha was ok, just didn't felt that he had a lot on screen time even being one of the two MC he wasn't there a lot and that bothered me, for just 1 season, they couldn't developed more than Maou but Maou was out for like 4 episodes just like Yuusha, this needed more episodes to be better, overall was good.
Enjoyment
I really enjoyed it, because of the animation and the music, they were great, i was expecting romance, but i was disappointed, the characters and the story were getting just ok because of the absence of both main characters that combined disappeared for 8 episodes of 12, and the ending got me mad.

Hataraku Maou-sama
Hataraku Maou-sama!, i expected this to be even better because people that i know and people on comment section of everywhere were saying this was great, but there are some things that bothered me and thought they could have done those things better.
Story
The story was basic, a Demon lord that initially went to another dimension to regains his powers and start from the bottom and conquer Japan and the world, but then he realise that he's comfortable in this dimension, this is where he starts and keeps with his humble and hilarious life, where every situation is laughable and he at some points will
...
encounter people from the other dimension and one in particular, the hero Emi who defeated Sadao in their own dimension, they will have a hate-appreciation relation, and this anime is tagged as Romance, but there is none, this shouldn't be in that category, because i was expecting romance and it was a let down to find out by watching every episode that there's none and the final episode was too open, like if there was going to be a 2nd season and that episode felt more like a 7th episode, it was like a filler and the ending should have been the 12th episode, i was a little mad, overall was good.
Art & Sound
Both were very good, just what i expected, the VA and the art style matched together, i don't think there could be a better cast for this, they just make it perfect, the thing was the background sound, there was not much music, there were silent parts and felt odd for me at least, the OP was ok, overall was very good both art and sound.
Character
The development could have been better but for just 13 episodes it was very good, Sadao, Shirou and Urushihara were damn funny and even better the chemistry Sadao and Shirou had, it was great everytime they were put together and make you laugh, EMi was ok, Suzuno looked beautiful, i liked her and Chiho reminded me a lot of Kushieda from Toradora because of the similarities on a lot of things, and i like them both a lot but maybe is just me, overall was very good.
Enjoyment
I really enjoyed this a lot, the comedy and the chemistry with the characters were great, that's what make this a very good anime, the let down was that there's no romance, not even with Chiho and it was because Sadao isn't interested in love or that's what i perceived from him and they didn't close the anime, the ending got me a little mad, but overall was great the enjoyment.

This anime was a big surprise for me, first because i saw this was a harem and i don't mind harem but i have seen a lot of them and i thought this was going to be like the other ones and i was really wrong in a way, second was because i didn't thought they were going to focus on the story and just in the girls but they made a decent job focusing on both.
Story
Well, the story was good, it follows a 17-year-old high schooler Sagara Yoshiharu who one day time-travels to the Sengoku period and that is the why i didn't gave
...
this a better score because you don't really get to know how he time-traveled to the Sengoku period not even through any episode, the reason was unknown but other than that it was great, the fact that he knew how to change the history and helped Nobuna to achieved a way to make her follow the good way and changing what he knew to an unknown result in the future was entertaining and you didn't know what was coming if everything changed and the fact that she wasn't corrupted (like the real Nobunaga was) was because she found someone that she loved and that one was Yoshiharu, the other thing i didn't like was that there wasn't enough romance, i was like ''kiss her'' or ''kiss him already'' don't expect deep romance but overall was very good.
Art & Animation
The animation was great even in the battles they look really well done and the art of the landscape and the cities were just great, and the character design was really good, overall great.
Sound
Sound was great with the voice acting, i can't picture them with other voices that could fit them that great, the music background was very good and the OP was really enjoyable i never skipped it, overall was great.
Character
This was outstanding, i just loved every single character and not to mention Saru was really amazing, he is a real MC, he is not a wuss even tho he doesn't fight but he was really good in sports so he can avoid things and he was smart too and was never afraid of anything just to make Nobuna happy and the greatest part is that he has a Harem of lolis lol, that was hilarious when every episode a new loli was added to his harem when in reality he wanted girls of his same age was funny but they're really adorable specially Hanbee with that sweet voice, he has like five lolis and two of his age being Nobuna and other one that i won't spoil you, Sagara became one of my favorite characters, and the other ones are outstanding, they were really well developed, there're a lot of characters that were really great in this anime, so this was the outstanding part of the anime.
Enjoyment
You won't regret watching this anime, this has almost everything, good humor, amazing characters, great art and sound, very good story, adorable and funny lolis, historical events, this needed more romance or a kiss to be even better but you will like a lot Oda Nobuna no Yabou.

NakaImo
Fast review.
Story
The problem with this anime is that it was predictable, the story is good but predictable and in the 9th episode i knew who the sister was, it was obvious if you payed attention to the things they said and what they knew till that episode, and even in the first episodes i knew she was going to be the sister with another suspect that i had, but i knew it, was predictable so the story was fine.
Art & Animation
Being an ecchi harem anime this should have great art, but it was just good, nothing amazing or great, the uncensored parts were fine, Ikusu
...
parts were good and funny, it was good overall, don't expect much nudes.
Sound
It was fine, the voice acting was good, but the background music was ok, the OP and ED were boring, overall was fine.
Character
Almost everyone were ok, just Miyabi and Ikusu were interesting and sometimes Konoe, but it was fine because of somethings that you will see, if you get to watch it.
Enjoyment
I enjoyed the art and the comedy mixed with the ecchiness, it was fine.

I thought i would dislike this season after that mediocre third season, but surprisingly this is the best season of the entire anime, everything is improved and i for once didn't find Louise and Saito's realationship pointless and annoying.
Story
On this season, there's just two stories to follow, the mission that the queen Henrietta gave both to see what the Pope wants from them and the other story is the finally growing relationship between Louise and Saito, finally there's not hate-love between them, but more love, more romantic and that was good after a step back in season three.
Art & Animation
The art and animations really improved,
...
it was colorful and brighter, and smooth, it was the best of the four seasons, the overall was very good.
Sound
The sound was the same, with little changes but still was good.
Character
Finally they developed Louise and Saito, and it was a big improvement, the other characters weren't behind on improvement neither, finally we get to know more a lot of their background, overall it was very good.
Enjoyment
The only season that i enjoyed a lot and wanted every season to be like this, because i felt like they restarted and improved everything on a good way, the ending left me wanting more, because they finally are together and trusth eachother and i liked how Louise changed from being the kind of tsundere that i hate to a calm tsundere like Taiga when she was with Ryuuji.
