!!!!SPOILER FREE!!!! (except a part which is marked)
I am a pretty big drama fan, but boy this anime was something special. I heard mixed oppinions about this in winter, but I didn't wanted too many spoilers so I didn't read any reviews, and now I will tell you my experience with Kuzu no Honkai.

I will start with the good parts: Both Art and Sound were amazing. I really loved the aesthetics. Unfortunately, that's all there is good in this anime.

The plot was decent, pretty standard for a drama, the biggest problem are the characters. Even though it's a story, I can't belive they are ... so unnatural, baisicaly stupid and inhuman. Starting from the main characters (Hanabi and Mugi), which are beyond lame, with their childish way of thinking (I won't say to much because I don't want to spoil), to the main interst points (Akane and Narumi). I can't even express in words how I feel about these two. Firstly, Akane's attitude is anything but a respectable woman's attitude which brings me to my next point, Narumi. How can this kind of guy even exist?! (Again I won't say more to not spoil)

!!!Spoiler alert!!!

For those who managed to see it trough, I'm not satisfied with the ending. Personally, it could've been a much better story if the main focus was on CONFESSING then BEING REJECTED and GAINING AFFECTION FROM THE LOVED ONE rather then b******g around and getting laid; plus some yuri action.

Conclusion, I give Kuzu no Honaki a 5/10, only, JUST ONLY, for the art and sound. If you want to watch it, do it at your own risk, I almost punched through my monitor a few times.

Thanks for reading this, and sorry for not making it more in-depth, I'm still unexperienced at writting reviews

I guess everything was already said about "Kimi no Na wa" but I will give you my oppinion about this movie as short as possible.
I know I'm late, I just finished it a few minutes ago, but I feel now was the best moment, after all the hype had gone. With all that said, please enjoy my short review.

First, the story was awseome (9/10). I really enjoyed the whole concept, even though, you could predict the ending after some time of watching. I feel like it was a very well written fiction.

The art was simply beautiful (10/10). I'm not a huge fan of CGI, ... but here it was perfect. I really do feel like it helped the whole presentation.

The sound without any comment (10/10). Every single sound was in harmony with the setting, the whole atmosphere was built very well.

Characher developement (8/10). It's a shame I can't give more but honestly, the developement was too fast. In short, it's shown to us only a little about the protagonists, about their lives, which makes them develop feelings so swftly, we don't know where they came from. I know it's a movie and they need to fit in 2 hours, but here it should've been looked upon a little more. This is, for me at least, the biggest flaw of the movie.

Enjoyment (9/10). I can say a really enjoyed this, but I don't consider it a masterpiece to rate it with 10.

Overall (9/10) Overall, it was a good eperience, and I can say i'm happy I haven't seen it when it aired, and waited until the hype over it had dissapeared. If you haven't watched "Kimi no Na wa" until now, and are reading this, I recommend to do it now. It won't disappoint you.

This anime was a surprise, a good one.

After I read the synopsis and saw some footage I thought to myself: "Another series with High School DxD / Infinite Startos type of ecchi is being aired... BORING!!..." and boy was I wrong. I think the only reason Keijo was listed as ecchi is because girls fight with their "natural weapons" (boobs and booty), they don't even show nipples, not to mention almost sex scenes (you know what I mean), this reason raised my overall rating of the anime.

Now, the story was a pretty average one, a cliche, that's why I rated it with ... (6). An average girl want's to become a pro keijo player and "surprisingly" has talent. With the power of firendship she is able to make everybody her allies.

The art and the sound are both rated with (8). Here I can't say very much, they both complement each other pretty well. In the "art" department there are some flaws, for exapmle swiming suit which repairs itself from one scene to another. Other than that, I'm pretty satisfied.

The charcater design is rated with (9). Every character is well rounded, with one exception, Nozomi (she seems to be able to overcome everithing with the power of will, but she is not as overpowered as.. mhm Natsu or Naruto). As I stated above, the story is pretty cliche so I will let this one slide.

In the end, my personal enjoyment (10). I have to admit I had lots of fun watching "Keijo", and I enjoyed it to its fullest. A laid-back, funny anime which presents a new sport playable only by girls.

The overall rating I give to "Keijo!!!!!!!!" is (8) which marks this as a good anime, and I recommend watching this if you want to see a laid-back, with no emotional implication series.
