if you liked Danmanchi you probably still won't like this. The story isn't important because it's the same thing every episode. the main character gets herself stuck in a precarious situation and gets saved by the amazing Aiz Wallenstein. the main because so indebted and obsessed with Aiz she follows her around everywhere she goes and buys her stuff regardless of how rare or expensive because the sword princess is that important. the plot armour is tolerable at least as we get into fights the viewer doesn't really care about each episode.

the art is ok. I mean it has to be if it's mostly fighting.

the sound is also ok but nothing to praise.

the characters are either garbage or annoying. we have the great Aiz Wallenstein the girl with no personality yet everyone loves her. she is only good for fighting as she throws herself into fights even when told not to. we have our main character Lefiya which follows Aiz around like a lost puppy as she is weak and hopeless on the battlefield but don't worry like previous main character bell she has something special about her and has a ton of untapped potential. who cares about the rest of the characters, they're side characters they can't be much better.

overall i give this show a 3/10. crap characters, crap story but good fight scenes (that's all it has going for it). things look like they might change pace next episode but they probably won't. unless you're a completionist or someone who just a good fight skip it. and danmachi fans unless you like Aiz (i don't know why you would) you're not going to learn anything you care about.

the story is a girl meets someone that looking exactly like her that is going to a school for delinquents. the catch is that someone can't fight but she can so they make her go in their place also it's an all boys school. we watch as she climbs her way to the top of the food chain. honestly, the story isn't important at all you can tell that from the 8 min episodes. it is just there for context, the creators only wanted a show to make cool fight scenes and have that be the end of it but know they needed more to get approved.

the art is average. it's not like this studio is known for its art anyway. you get ur cool fight scenes, those are done well and that's all that is important here.

the sound isn't even something to pay attention to. no of it is memorable or really adds anything it's just there because it has to be.

the characters are bland but maybe that's because they don't have time to be fleshed out anyway. it generic tropes with nothing to separate them from any other generic harem anime.

honestly, I don't look forward to this show every week but the 2 mins of fights are all I come for. it isn't like this show offers much else and i doubt the main character is ever going to lose a fight the show doesn't have enough time for a genuine plot twist.

overall 5/10 if you have nothing better to do and want something to knock out it's short so why not watch it. but don't put it on the top of your list to watch later

the story is let's explore the side characters and their backstories. it feels like they felt that the fans are starting to forget about them and they want to get them talking again so they have us this. they do continue the story but the meat of it all is character development. I don't want to spoil anything so that's what I'm going to leave you with.

the art is as good as ever the titans are goofy but at the same time scary which it kinda hard to combine. fluid camera cuts and fast-paced action leaving you wanting more.

the opening theme isn't as good as the first season and isn't as nearly has memeable. that's all you wanted to know right, but really its great and fits the scenes perfectly.

like I said earlier all this is is character development. they are adding to the side characters so if the characters weren't good someone didn't do their job right. learning about the characters isn't something you thought you wanted but you really do. where are they from, what happened to their families, how have they grown from where we left off, and etc. and we still have the continued story from where we left off but we haven't gotten to the basement.

Going in i wasn't expecting much because i hated season one and only finished and started watching season 2 because its popular but it really redeemed itself for me. they opened up the world more and added to the side characters they stop on fan theories and add more to others i love it.

so far i give in a 10/10 vs my 1 for the first season i really didn't care for the story and main characters (they're motivations outside of we want our freedom and revenge sucked ( i know that should be enough but it wasnt for me)) but they really fixed that this season.

Story: the jokes felt either obvious or forced and they were pushed way too long. continuity is good but there is a limit until you need to try something else. the story is really interesting though but everything is still forced when it comes to that and at a faster pace, than it needs to be which is okay but it really feels like they rushed it because they couldn't think of anything to put in-between climaxes (so they abused jokes). Don't get me wrong the show is funny but the joke is still going when you are done laughing. If you are not coming from Death Note and are just trying to watch some of this will miss you.

Art: it's really nothing special, not bad just it doesn't stand out from other shows.

Sound: also nothing too special. if you like the music and stuff okay but it really doesn't matter

Characters: for what the show has presented they have a lot of promise (i'm going to into detail because i want you to experience them first hand) they have unique personalities than i really like and you might also or hate them it depends on how seriously you take this anime going in it is a parody after all.

Enjoy: it has it's ups and down but I'm excited to see where this goes i like the characters and premise i just hope they get more creative with the jokes later on.

Overall: 5/10 the writing could improve and if you don't love or even care for the characters the plot isn't enough to keep you engaged its fun but once again the writing doesn't give it justice. the show is really meh when you think about it but check it out yourself you never know you might love it.

what happens when you bring your favorite anime character to our world. considering the copious amounts of shows where we have the opposite and we go to their worlds it's a little refreshing.

the art is good but I don't really care enough because the show is mostly people sitting around talking and giving exposition. for the action scenes, we do see it is fairly original and fluid it is worth the sitting around.

the music isn't that memorable to me but I like the casting choices. it feels like they belong with the characters.

the characters are amazing, going in you may expect basic mainstream anime tropes but everyone feels alive and like they're their own person. they are very memorable and they do have their references to other characters from different stories but it was done right to feel as if it is not cliche. They have great reactions to the realization of the situation they find themselves in and seeing who their creators are, are they like gods they imagined or not. the main character doesn't add much as he is just around to tell us who the characters are as king otaku (not a stereotype btw) but I guess it's useful knowledge.

the story is great but it's too much say and not do. like I said before its 90 percent sitting around talking in one room and that can be boring and for a lot of people is. I am really into this show for I don't know if I can handle it for 22 episodes from my history with anime I will get bored and I hope we get a little more movement at least. Otherwise, I love this show and want it to improve. i want more show and not tell

i give it a 8 out of 10 the story is enough to keep you watching but don't be surprised if you want to skip through at points.

Fuuka is about a girl named Fuuka Akitsuki who wants to make music and the other characters will help her if they want to or not. (btw this does not follow the source material if you're coming for there)
skipping to characters, this show portrays Fuuka as the most selfish and thoughtless pos possible and it show our other focus character Yuu Haruna as the densest pos in anime. the other characters on the other hand are good as Koyuki “Tama” Hinashi is emotional and acts based on those emotions which pushes the story and makes everything happen i like her character because she act like how alot of people would in her situation and is one of the things that makes me like this show despite other issues. we also have Makoto Mikasa our token gay character which clears up and issues Fuuka's character creates because her personality although she can be .... things (trying my best not spoil). the other character aren't that important although they have their places.
the art on this show is a hit or a miss depending on what your into i like it and i feel it gives the concerts and other occurrences little pushes other art styles wouldn't.
the music in this show is also amazing and if you don't like the show you will like the music even the ones with engrish.
overall i give the show a 7 i like the art, music, and story the only gripe i have is with the characters but the don't ruin the show for me as they would with most people

the show needed more episode for it really to have been done perfectly but for we got i absolutely loved it. all the characters in the show are villains in some form as that is what got them put into the game in the first place. i really like this and it really comes to play later in story (the source material). also despite the time constraints this show has they had really well-paced character development, it shows how our main characters get affected mentally by the game as some go crazy or selfish. if you decide to watch i really suggest not stopping at the point the show ends and continuing the story in the source material as it covers up things that other reviews point out as flaws as the flaws in the characters and story are essential but don't come into play yet.

you take a what is pretty much a japanese legend and turn it into a anime and you get this. you have two tigers with the same goal but trying to achieve it in different ways. one picks the more villain like route an the other a more heroic one kind of like a split of the original tiger mask, which started as a villain but saw the effect it had on the children that watched and became the hero.

This show is very outdated and in turn makes me feel like a kid again. but i that a good thing as a viewer yes but as a critic no. for today's standards the story is bland, the animation is choppy and bad, the characters can be a hit or a miss but i really enjoy it. the music is really fun and i can listen to the op all day. compared to shows when this should of been released it is really good. if your looking for a classic feel 9/10, otherwise 5 or 6/10.
