Super short review and my first one ever.
So in my honest opinion I don't think this show is worthy of the 8 I gave it if you strictly look at it analytically. The story itself is quite unoriginal, they could have done so much more with sound, the visuals are nothing to go on about, and the characters could've definitely had more depth to them would it not have been for the totally unnecessary fight scenes.
Speaking of those fight scenes... seriously, why? They served absolutely no
...
purpose in the story itself and they completely killed any mood that had been set up by that point. Also, this anime doesn't really lack in the visuals department aside from the fight scenes. The fight scenes are the entire reason I gave the art a 5/10. The fighting is incredibly choppy and the art style of the warriors themselves is extremely distracting.
So with all that being said, why on Earth am I giving this show a 8/10? Well, to be frank, I myself am not sure of the answer to that question. This show lacks in so many areas and insists on killing its own mood; however, somehow it still got me to connect to the two main characters. It is quite hard to point out the specifics about why I enjoyed this show as much as I did, but I do know that I recommend giving it a watch. It won't make you cry like Koe no Katachi and the character development is comparable to akame ga kill. But, for some reason this show has the ability to suck you into the minds of the incredibly flat main characters. All in all I can't guarantee that you will enjoy this show; in fact, you'll probably hate it. However, there are a small percentage of people that will feel a strong connection to this show; and the only way to find out if your included in that group is to give this show a go.
