Shiki is an anime that I think has one of the best stories I've seen. You look through the lens of 3 different characters as they go through their lives in a town with a "pandemic" that goes around killing the villagers.

(Show is hard to write a review for without spoilers)

Story: 10/10
Can't write much here without spoilers but the story has a great buildup throughout the show.

Sound:10/10 the sound makes up for art in making a creepy atmosphere and really the sound design, in general, is top tier.

Art: 6/10
Art is the only iffy thing about this show, it's not bad imo but it's very ... weird

Character:9/10
The three main characters provide different viewpoints and philosophies regarding the "pandemic" and I'd have to say all of them are great and fulfill the role they are given well.

Enjoyment: 9/10
While the story is outstanding there are certain points without much actual action and can feel a bit lacking at moments, as well as the art so I wouldn't give this a 10/10.

Overall: 9/10
Great and very unique show that I would reccomend if you are a fan of darker themes

Funny

The story isn't the main component that makes this show absolutely
amazing, that would have to be the synergy between characters somehow (besides the sister character which isn't even in this season) makes every character loveable you got the sweet girl Onodera who is just wholesome and creates tension, then you have Chitoge Kirisaki who is hotheaded and a bit of a tsundere but is somehow not obnoxious and even brings comedy and life to the other characters, then there is Tsumugi who is also a tsundere but feels nothing like Chitoge and brings a new type of comedy to the table with her little ... knowledge of social situations, lastly (Out of the main girls) there is Tachibana who cares about nobody but the protagonist and is obsessed with him. She too brings another form of comedy to the table that is an unrealistic random form of comedy. (Not to mention flipping the plot on its head) And somehow even with all of the great main girls, the guy Raku Ichijo is the best character since he is always put in comedic situations and does everything he can to help other characters, he is both naive and a genius. The best part is how all the characters interact, I can't explain it just watch it yourself if you are interested.


Overview
The greatest character chemistry I have ever seen in any anime and then they through in that one sister and well... but besides that, this show is a masterpiece and hilarious. The voice acting is on point, the art is really good and overall just a fun show.
