If there is some judgement that goes on in the afterlife, should our great judge use human emotions while judging us? This anime is very very enjoyable and is definitely worth the watch. The theme is very likable and different from any other show that I have seen.
Story:
There are many theories as to what happens after one dies, however, in this anime those who die at the same time as others are sent to one of many Arbiters, who judge whether they are reincarnated or go to the void. The memories of their death, and their life, are wiped so that the arbiters can get
...
an idea as to who they are as unbiased as possible. when they are given to the arbiters, they are forced to compete in games that can cause them harm. Each episode has different people arriving and discovering their past. It did seem a bit slow at points, however it did get to the point very well. 10/10
Art:
The art is beautiful, the style and color palate works very well for the story. The ambiance was cold and chilling when it should be, which fits an anime that has a plot based around death. The character design is detailed enough to the point that I can imagine what it would be like to converse with the main characters, however, some of the supporting characters do feel a bit lackluster. 9/10
Sound:
Compared to other Anime that I have watched the voices sound good despite the fact that the mc shows no emotion. The music is truly what makes a television show for me, the theme is very catchy and is one of my favorites.
Characters:
All of the characters were very in-depth and had qualities that made you appreciate them. They were all well voiced (they showed the lack of emotion to the build up of emotion very well). 8/10
Enjoyment:
It was able to keep me awake an interested throughout a whole night, which is something that I can't say about a whole lot of other shows. Overall, it had a good story, good art, and was very enjoyable, except for the pacing and the character design on some of the supporting characters. 9/10
Overall:
9/10
