An long-awaited adaptation of what a lot of people call "the grandfather of the Isekai genre". Ignoring cringey articles like "Whatever your favorite isekai is, Mushoku Tensei did it first." , is the hype actually worth it. Kinda.
STORY: 7/10
Before you come at me with pitchforks and torches think about it. What actually happened in this anime? Sure the concept looks great and there are a lot of fine details that the director did amazing to show but other than that, not a lot. Again, Mushoku Tensei has tons of potential but so far there have been some disappointing things. Mainly the pacing that is all
...
over the place: One episode we are speeding around an arc so fast that you will probably not remember anything and in another episode we are going so slow and the character talk so much you would think its just wasting time. Also some of the jokes aren't the best and i don't really understand some of the actions our MC does.
ART: 9/10
I have never seen a new studio come out with something that looks as good as this. I dont know where they got the money or the time or the staff but Mushoku Tensei looks amazing, managing to rival some of the biggest sequels coming out this season. If Cloverworks wasn't so good a studio this anime would have been the best production this season. The only issue i have is that the facial expressions are weird sometimes.
SOUND: 9/10
It was surprisingly good. The sound effects are extremely good, the music is class, especially the OP. The reason it gets a 9 is the fact that there really isn't anything that special about the music and sounds during the show and the EP isnt the best.
CHARACTER: 6/10
This anime makes mistake #1 when trying to make characters: Try to make the viewers root for assholes. This has, of course, been done before, but it is extremely difficult to do so. They kinda manage it with the MC but other characters, holy fuck, it bombs. I know that the show tries to somewhat represent what life is in the medieval but you cant do that and 5 minutes later make the same asshole character we know hate do some hero shit and expect us to now root for him. Sadly episodic characters seem to really fall into this category quite often. Its a shame because this could have been handled way better. Characters we see a lot more are way better in every way. They all have goals they strongly follow and seem to have things they hate or love, rather than flip-flopping between the 2 (like the other characters often do).
ENJOYMENT: 8/10
After Wonder Egg priority this was the anime i looked most forward to. Its funny and cartoonish but can be very serious when it needs to. Sometimes the comedy slips in the serious moments and the dumb characters ruin some of the fun but other than that the show manages to keep you watching with a big smile on your face.
ENDING STATEMENT: It was a good ride and I'll definitely be there for season 2 when it comes out. But, is it the best isekai i have ever watched? NO; Is it one of the best? Yeah, its top 4 and i STRONGLY recommend you give it a watch.

I started to watch this show after seeing it be highly rated by pretty much everyone. I told myself that "it's a shonen about skateboarding, how bad can it be?". Quite bad actually.
STORY: 2/10
How do you make such an interesting concept boring, is beyond my understanding. An amazing concept absolutely butchered by a lack of ideas. Its like the studio held a meeting where one guy said "Lets make an anime about skateboarding" and then they just ran with that whole idea and never talked again. The main characters are interesting but every single other person in the whole show you have probably seen about
...
20 times in an shonen. The pacing is way too quick and the whole show just screams "lack of ideas". I mean, the MC faces up against the main antagonist of the whole show, the best skater ever, in episode 4. Cant see the story heading anywhere.
ART: 8/10
I have said before that i am a huge BONES fan, and if BONES know something, its amazing animation with lack-luster story. The animation is amazing and the show manages to look better than some of the best shows airing this season. On a technical level the show is top-notch. The only issue i would have is the quite obvious short-cuts they take to make things easier to animate. (Like bro, please stop aiming the camera at the ground.
SOUND: 8/10
And that also translates into the sound section, the OP and EP are great and the music during the show is really really good. Can't really complain about anything other than the fact that some music clearly repeats itself trough-out the show.
CHARACTER: 1/10
Horrible, It gets 1 point for the main characters but even they aren't flawless. I would start getting into details but i am afraid of going on a rant so the only thing i'll say is that in one month time you are not going to remember who any of these characters are.
ENJOYMENT: 4/10
If you're favorite anime ever is God of highschool then you might have a blast. Other than that, i think the story is too bad and distracting to enjoy the good animation and music.
ENDING STATEMENT: Really great on a technical level but anime is more than that. The most important thing is the story and this show lacks an acceptable one. Its a huge shame since the concept is really interesting but i highly recommend you don't waste your time watching this. (WATCH WONDER EGG PRIORITY INSTEAD)
OVERALL: 4/10 (closer to a 5)

I was actually kinda hyped for this show. I just wanna start by saying that i did not watch the original higurashi but i heard good things about it. Then an remake got announced, NOT.... Yeah, it turns out its actually a sequel to the original, but you don't actually need to watch the original to understand what's going on. Makes lots of sense right? Either way lets start the review.
STORY: 6/10
It starts off really really strongly, It's kinda creepy and fun but also manages to drop hints to the viewer as to what is actually going on. It's really good at keeping the mystery
...
up and for the first 10 episodes. Then, it just reveals what is going on. From there it just turns into a "Oh shit this show is supposed to be gory" (really tough, the first half of this show has less gore than a random family friendly show about a witch that game out in the 1st season). After the episode 10 the show just becomes boring. There is no big reveal, or slowly transitioning into what's actually going on. The show just goes: "Yeah this is what's actually going on guys, so yeah, glad we cleared that up.". Im sure there was a better way.
ART: 5
Let me just say that I LOVE the Monogatari series so i wasn't disappointed when i heard that the person who did the character designs was working on Higurashi, and the fact that this show takes inspiration from the Monogatari series is obvious. The problem is that ONE:This is not the Monogatari series and TWO:Passione Studio doesn't have Shaft money to actually make the animation look good. The animation starts off pretty good but it just gets worse and worse as the show goes on. It's obvious that this was the studio's first ever 2 cour and i hope they can do better in the future.
SOUND: 4/10
Nothing too amazing. Here I can't even say it started of well because the music isn't really that good a lot of times being way too loud. The OP also isn't that good. The only things that are decent are the EP and the sound design.
CHARACTER: 4/10
The characters are a mess. The moment a character looks interesting and you start thinking that maybe this show is building to something the anime just says: "hohoho, fuck you retard, we are doing something else, and everything that you know about that character? Forget it. Doesn't matter anymore."; or they just move to the dumb fuck, boring side-plot. Disappointing.
ENJOYMENT: 6/10
I can't lie, even if i was never really impressed i was kinda enjoying myself for the first 5 episodes. It was fun and entertaining. But after that it just gets worse and worse.
ENDING STATEMENT: High expectations, high disappointment. I was really expecting more. Either way, no one really likes this show. Fans of the original think it sucks, people who were expecting a remake were left disappointed. I don't recommend you watch this one.

*THIS REVIEW DOES NOT CONTAIN SPOILERS*'
One of the most hyped up anime of the autumn season, with a pretty good art-style and an interesting setting. Let's see what I thought about Akudama Drive.
STORY: 7/10
With one of the best 1st episodes in anime this year, Akudama Drive starts up really strong. The animation looked crisp and the story seemed like a promising one. First off, the setting is a very good one, and it leaves a lot of options as to what to actually do with the story. The show, chooses a "heist" story with a group of odd-balls and a normal person to do it.
...
We've seen it before but the heist itself is very entertaining to watch and it feels like they did their best with what they had. Sometimes I laughed and sometimes i felt sad, it did really well in that department. The problems I have with the story come in AFTER the heist was over. The show grinds to a halt and it even gets boring at one point. Something else that i need to address is the ending, which i thought was pretty bad, leaving a lot of questions up in the air and feeling kinda sudden.
ART: 8/10
A very beautiful world and pretty good animation overall. It's pretty rare that we get an anime original that manages to looks consistently well for the duration of the whole show. I mean, being consistent is kinda Studio Pierrots speciality. The only major problems i have is the character design that looks pretty basic (apart from the MC)
SOUND: 7/10
The OP is a fucking banger and it fits with the show really well. Can't say the same about the EP sadly... .The music that plays during the show didn't really put that much of an impact on me, generally being forgettable and or very basic "achson mushic"
CHARACTER: 6/10
Probably the department Akudama Drive does the worst in is characters. Apart from the MC who is a pretty well-built and decent character, everyone else can be put in the "basic bad guy" bin. Everyone is here, we have edge-lord who is very cool and strong, crazy bitch, strong dumb guy, insane guy who is very strong, we even have evil leader who is overly angry at the world for existing. Not a whole lot of interesting characters, and in the 12 episodes the show has, only 3 of the really seem to do anything to earn my interest.
ENJOYMENT: 7/10
I really enjoyed myself in the 1st arc (the one with the heist). After that the show really started to get boring and kinda rushed. It felt like there was a finish line they had to run to, rather than a marathon the had to finally finish. The whole show leaves us with a lot of questions to be answered but at one point it all just ends and nothing is really resolved.
Ending statement: It was a pretty interesting ride, a lot of positives but the show kinda loses its "hype factor" towards the end. It looks like it's not getting a 2nd season which is kinda surprising but i still recommend you watch Akudama Drive because its a pretty entertaining ride, especially at the start.

*SEASON 2 SO THERE ARE SOME SMALL SPOILERS*
Being considered one of the best anime ever, i had high expectations of CLANNAD: After Story. After watching the 1st season, I already kinda knew what this show is about, but at the same time i hoped that season 2 would come in with some fresh stuff.
STORY: 8/10
The story picks up where it left off and we still follow the "solving other peoples problems before ours" stick. Half-way trough it turns into a family based slice-of-life which i honestly liked. There are like 2 good shows who have managed to make good "family life" anime. Either way, the
...
story is sadder than ever(especially in the latter half) but sadly(pun intended) sometimes it dwells into the realm of trying too hard to make you sad. Even if it over-does it sometimes, I can't deny that this show has indeed managed to make me cry (the 2nd anime ever I have cried at). CLANNAD: After Story is slightly better in the story department than its predecessor. One thing I would like to add is that the ending was confusing and I had to search the meaning of it on google. Pretty bad way to end a pretty good anime in my opinion.
ART: 10/10
Kyoto Animation you mad men. It is unbelievable how good this show looks. Let me just say, this came out in 2008. This show looks better than 70% of the stuff that comes out today. The work the studio must have put in this show is apparent by the way it looks. When people talk about CLANNAD: After Story being the best anime ever they probably remember the animation the best.
SOUND: 8/10
Again this show is really great in a category but it ends up losing points because of some mistakes. The music is great, OP and EP included, but there is this one song that the makers of this show absolutely loved because you can hear it about 3000 times during the show. At one point it was so distracting that i stopped paying attention to the story because i was too mad at this one song. Other than this season of CLANNAD does great in the sound category and it fully deserves an 8.
CHARACTER: 8/10
Oh, this show is the kind that takes advantage of the fact it introduced characters in the 1st season and doesn't even try to come up with new characters. I don't really like that, but it is a viable way to do things. I also enjoy the character development we get, especially on some more obscure characters. I love the MC and i think he could be one of the best ever MC'S in a romance anime ever, he isn't relatable, but he is very pleasing to watch and it feels like he is an actual human being, not being stuck to just one type of character trait.
ENJOYMENT: 8/10
As i said in my review of the 1st season, CLANNAD never really tries to hook you to the show and make you watch 10 episodes at a time but it never quite gets boring because of thee interesting story. It never felt like the show tried to overstay it's welcome but something that i don't like is what i mentioned in the story department. The show sometimes tries too hard to be sad so it gets predictable and even annoying at some points. The ending also doesn't make any sense.
Ending statement: Is it the best anime ever? I don't think so. Is it a damn good show that I should watch? Absolutely. The 1st season had its hiccups but season 2 is consistently good and i don't regret watching this series. If you like anime, or even romance and drama in general, you should watch CLANNAD.

*THIS REVIEW DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY SPOILERS*
With so much anime being released this autumn season we were bound to have at least 2 good new shows. I seriously thought they were going to be Akudama drive and the Taisou Zamurai(ouch). A lot of people liked the look of this show from the start and it's one of the best rated anime of this season, lets see what I thought about it.
STORY: 8/10
A pretty funny story about a guy who gets hit by a truck and manages to get himself a wife in the span of 5 minutes. I would describe the show as a pretty
...
wholesome and feel-good ride about a married couple living together, while not really knowing too much about each other. It kinda has a supernatural spin to it which wasn't really needed and can just be ignored to be honest. Tonikaku Kawaii's base idea is a very interesting one and it manages to bring a lot of laughs. The only problems i have is the studio slapping a fucking "ad episode" where all the characters sit down and play Street figther(Tm) (really now, i understand its a pretty small studio but come on) and the show's sometimes sits on a few things for too long which makes the viewing experience a little bit worse.
ART: 6/10
Yeah, the art really isn't the strong point of this anime, it may be because of the low budget and the (i think) artistic choice to have the characters look more "old school". Either way, at the start of this anime it actually looks great but it's once again a problem related to stamina because by the last episode the animation is just bad. It's a slow decline, but one that is very noticeable. I trust that all these problems will be resolved when the next season appears but for now it get a 6.
SOUND: 7/10
Firstly, the OP of this show is an absolute banger, i listened to it every time a new episode came out and that's pretty rare for me, it really fits the style of the show and is a good song overall. The OP was kinda forgettable and the songs that play during the show really didn't leave that much of an impression on me. Something i enjoyed however is the sound effects that have this "old anime" feel to them, personally i think this was a good choice, if intentional.
CHARACTER: 7/10
The 2 main characters are very cute and offer a lot to the show. I feel like they perfectly fit with the show and I really liked every moment with them on screen, i never thought any of them went to the extreme with their characteristics and feel just right. However, the other characters, ohhhh the other characters. The wife has a sister who is the most annoying girl ever and every minute with her on screen is just pain. The husband also has a friend who is not quite as annoying as the sister, bu still pretty fucking stupid. There are other characters that i really don't care about, but what's important is that the MC's carry Tonikaku Kawaii on their back and that's not such a bad thing in an romance anime.
ENJOYMENT: 8/10
One of the shows i looked forward for every week. It isn't really an eye-catching story but it does manage to keep your attention by making you wonder what these 2 married people are up to next. It is a pretty funny and especially romantic story that manages to keep your attention just enough time to impress you.
ENDING STATEMENT: I ended up enjoying Tonikaku Kawaii, it isn't a masterpiece but it a very good show that deserves a watch, especially if you like romance anime. I would watch a season 2.
OVERALL: 7/10 (closer to an 8)

*THIS REVIEW DOES NOT CONTAIN SPOILERS*
I was once again convinced by the r/anime community to watch an anime that didn't really look too interesting. Let's just say I got what I came for.
STORY: 3/10
By far the worst part about this anime is the story itself. It's the most basic shit ever and plays it way to safe. It's a story about a young witch that travels through a fantasy world. Yes, that's it, a 7 yo could come up with something like that. Either way, Majo no Tabitabi follows an episodic formula with a problem getting introduced and resolved in the same episode. Let me
...
just say, i hate this way of telling a story, i know its done to "feel" like the book the MC is writing but it ends up hurting the show. It gets boring fast and it feels like the main character never really learns anything from these experiences. At this point I realized: this show is just a bunch of filler episodes stuck together. And that is even more obvious when the show finally has a story "arc" that is 2 and a half episodes long and its fucking amazing compared to the rest of the show. Overall, not trying enough.
ART: 6/10
The art, like the story, is very basic and doesn't really manage (or even try) to impress the viewer at any point during the show. But when we are talking about animation and art, it doesn't hurt the show as much to not take any risks, because that means there wont be any mistakes. Majo no Tabitabi takes the safe bet once again and delivers on an ok art-style with decent to good animation, doesn't do anything too good though.
SOUND: 7/10
I didn't really make anything of the music, once again, like this whole show, its kinda forgettable. But the music isn't overwhelmingly annoying and also the voice acting from the main character is amazing so at least it does something right. I would comment on the OP and EP but i don't remember it. I'm just gonna give it a 7 because they didn't make any mistakes.
CHARACTER: 7/10
The MC is the only important character, who is the best part of the show because for once, it's a pretty original take on a character just starting their journey, being awfully cocky and selfish during the duration of the whole show. That's (finally) something original about this show and she really manages to kinda carry the show. The other recurring characters are the MC's friend who is neither funny or annoying, and a teacher that only appears in 2 episodes but i thought i had to include her. Overall all the focus goes on the MC so the makers of this show don't really have to worry about jugling other characters.
ENJOYMENT: 4/10
Boring. That's the word that describes this show perfectly, i thought multiple times about just dropping it but i said to myself that I'm too many episodes out to drop it now, i never looked forward to the next episode and the show overall bored me to death. There was one episode in which the show goes full fucking berserk and just drops a super gory and serious episode out of nowhere, which i really enjoyed but the show sadly didn't stick to the narrative. It also has that 2 episode arc which I already said I enjoyed but that's about it.
ENDING STATEMENT: It ended up being a pretty boring and uneventful ride, it didn't really make any mistakes but it's safe-ness pisses me of and makes it seem like more of a quick cash-grab than a project people poured their all into. I think you should stay away from this one.
Overall: 5/10

*THIS REVIEW DOES NOT CONTAIN SPOILERS*
I finally decided to watch CLANNAD. I heard the 1st season was pretty bad and couldn't compare to the second one, but i decided to form my own opinion on it. My expectations were pretty high since i heard that season 2 of CLANNAD is one of the best anime of all time.
STORY: 6/10
CLANNAD is a harem anime in which you know who the MC is going to end up with by the first episode. I don't really understand why they made every girl in the show like the MC but not give any of them a chance. The show
...
goes from a comedy to a (kinda) serious drama. It didn't make me cry but it did manage to make me laugh a few times. The main problem with CLANNAD is that the transition from comedy to drama is too abrupt. A big part of this show is the "character introducing arcs". I would say that about more than half of this show is just characters getting introduced and having their problems solved by the MC. These arcs were pretty bad, either being completely retarded or just boring. CLANNAD never did feel really bad though, like i never felt like i didn't want to watch the show but also not that i was enjoying myself to the fullest. In the end it ends up being disappointing.
ART: 7/10
The art of CLANNAD is regarded as some of the best in history. I think people only remember the 2nd season though..., The art of the 1st season of CLANNAD is far from unforgettable but it is above average, looking better than any other romance anime out at that time. Sometimes it's really beautiful and Kyoto animations makes sure to flex their talented muscles by drawing scenery and back-rounds that are amazing even by today's standards. But the actual action of the characters moving isn't as fluid as it should be, only in actual action scenes is it ever good, and even then sometimes they try to pull some tricks so you don't notice how "watery" it is (naruto style). Something that i do appreciate is the fact that characters are almost always moving when they talk, so the show isn't just 2 PNGs moving their mouth at each-other.
SOUND: 8/10
Something the 1st season of CLANNAD excels in is music. It ranges from decent to beautiful and it's clear that the makers of this show spent a lot of time trying to make it sound great. It comes in at the perfect moments, serious parts feel like they have more of a weight and comedy scenes fell more fast-paced, even if in reality they are several minutes long. The only problems i gave is the OP and EP which i didn't rally like, and that's a pretty important thing in the sound category.
CHARACTER: 8/10
As any harem anime, the focus goes towards having fun characters that people can either laugh at or with. As i said 55% of this show is characters getting introduced and getting some kind of story where the MC needs to help them. Even if i didn't find these to be entertaining, they are good ways of doing character development. The 2 biggest problems I have with the characters is the MC's best friend, who i found annoying, and the character design. You've seen the memes and the video's and yes, some of the characters in this show look like they are melting, especially in the face area. At first, its annoying but you end up getting used to it.
ENJOYMENT: 7/10
The problem with the 1st season of CLANNAD (and drama anime in general) is that it doesn't really have a way of keeping you coming back, i don't think anyone has ever binge-watched a full season of CLANNAD because it's just something that's probably going to ruin your experience. Still, i never finished work and thought to myself: "I can't wait to see what happens in the next episode of CLANNAD". I had fun but i feel like the show could have done more. The ending is pretty satisfying and was a good way to end it.
ENDING STATEMENT: I ended up being pretty disappointed. I don't know why, but i had huge expectations of this show, either way, I don't know if i should recommend this to anyone because it all depends on how good "After story" is. An anime season 2 that's apparently 10 TIMES better than this one. I look forward to it...

*THIS REVIEW DOES NOT CONTAIN SPOILERS*
Fire force was one of the most under-rated show of last year, getting slept on by a lot of people, the animation was great and the world they introduced was very interesting. When a Shounen gets a sequel the 1st thing it needs to do is built upon the characters and world that was settled in the 1st season. Let's see if Fire force season 2 manages this.
STORY: 6/10
Let's start with the good parts: there are a lot of fights and a lot of hyped up moments, the show does well to pull you into the next episode and it
...
is an overall decent ride. Now the bad: Pacing, i know you probably already read about how horrible the pacing is in this show but it has to be said, its really REALLY rare that i fall to sleep while watching a show, but Fire force managed it. Also one of the arcs is so fucking bad that i actually considered skipping it but it was really important to the main story, which btw, just fucking jumps out a window. It tries to do something simple but ends up complicating it so far that it seems the makers of the show got tired of people saying its just a "basic Shounen" which it is. It goes for the "The evil people have to collect x amount of things/people to do this bad thing" cliche which i don't really like mixed with the "evil cult" cliche. As an ending statement on the story: you would probably like this show if you are really into conspiracy theories.
ART: 8/10
I mean, it's practically a death sentence to make a Shounen show without good, fluid animation so i expected it to be pretty good. The fire itself looks really good but doesn't really look like it packs any wait when it hits something and i really didn't see any problems with the animation in most of the episodes. There is one arc however (also mentioned previously) that for some reason looks way worse than the rest of the show. I swear to god David Production went on vacation for a month and just let some fucking random people they picked off the street do this arc, its pretty bad. Either way, the animation isn't ground-braking put it does look pretty good.
SOUND: 10/10
This is the only place where FIRE FORCE settles itself apart from other run-of-the-mill Shounen. The sound in this show is so fucking amazing, i could say it's on orgasmic proportions. Seriously now, this is some of the best sound design i have ever heard, its crisp, well chosen and it really shows that they spent a lot on time on it. The only reason i didn't read the manga(which i heard was better than the anime) is because i wouldn't have been able to hear that beautiful roar the fire does. The music also fits amazingly well with the show and it compliments the fight with style. Easily the best part about Fire Force.
CHARACTER: 5/10
I mean, it doesn't take any brave steps here. This is the reason people call this show the "basic bitch" of modern shounen. The characters are so cliche that its actually embarrassing. If you watch anime and ask me to tell you about the characters of fire force without saying their name you would be fucking confused cus it seems i'm just talking about every character in existence. The character design is pretty good but even here the show kinda fails with some of them (you know which if you watch the show). The only true character development we get is: this character is strong now and in conclusion it's a total shit show.
ENJOYMENT: 6/10
I mean, i really liked the fight scenes and the well-placed cliff-hangers but you can't expect me to give it more than 6 when i fell asleep while watching it. It's a tough one, on one hand i was looking forward to almost every episode and sometimes i enjoyed myself, but on the other hand, some of the episodes are boring as fuck and that arc was really really bad, i just cant give it more than 6 (and thats pretty bad for a Shounen).
ENDING STATEMENT: In this instance season 2 ends up being worse than season 1. Even if it seem i dont like the show at all i would still recommend it to you if you are looking for some fun stuff you can turn your brain off to (or if you are a conspiracy theorist). If a season 3 ever appears I'll probably watch it, but not get too hyped.

*SOME SMALL SPOILERS AHEAD*.
After being pleased with the first season of BSD and kinda liking the 2nd one i decided to watch the 3rd. By this season i think only people who liked the 1st season of the show are still watching it so it's pretty weird that it keeps getting adaptations and specials. Either way lets get into this:
STORY: 8/10
Something that definitely improved from the 1st and 2nd season is the story. I think its more of a result of the story being more focused on the mystery part of BSD. I personally really love mystery in anime so i think that does
...
play a part. There is however an episode i have to talk about, where the show has the audacity to try to explain to us that CHILD BEATING is okay if you had good intentions at heart. This is disgusting and pretty much ruins my view if this show. Either way, the story isn't amazing but it does a pretty good job too keep you hooked to the show.
ART: 7/10
This rating is also based on what we have seen so far. Season 3 of BSD pales in comparison to the animation of season 2 and isn't even better than season 1 at some points. It's not bad but i expect much more out of BONES and especially out of a seinen anime like BSD. For once the animation doesn't carry a seinen anime...
SOUND: 6/10
The music remains the same while the show changes. While BSD focuses more on mystery and story telling the music still is your stereotypical edgy action anime music that worked in season 2 but it really doesn't fit now. The OP and EP also suck so in the sound department BSD does bang average.
CHARACTER: 6/10
The character design is still as bad as ever, even with the bad characters, and i thing the antagonist of this season sucks and isn't built on enough, the show only tells us that he is very strong. ALL the new characters that are introduced are pretty bad. This season is pretty much carried by the old characters we have like Dazai and especially Kunikida. The characters really need some more building however.
ENJOYMENT: 7/10
The 1st few episodes were amazing but it got really weak by the end. I feel like the show was never able to keep me locked in for too much. In my opinion the show is too focused on making a strong connection between the Port Mafia and the Special defence division and forgets to talk about a lot of things everyone has questions about, especially the characters and their backrounds.
ENDING STATEMENT: I think this season of BSD isn't the best one, but it ends up being carried by the story, which is the most important part of a show after all. I still think that the show can do better but it keeps getting too focused on doing specific things that don't really matter. I think i would watch a season 4 if they make it but i won't have high expectations.
