This is a masterpiece—well, almost. I can’t fully explain what’s going on, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The absurdity woven throughout gives it a unique charm, and the chemistry between Koshi and Nokotan keeps things engaging. The humor feels light and fresh, and each interaction seems to spark new memes. Even in the first episode, there are countless gags and fun references that keep you entertained.

And, for interesting you have references to dance from Spider-Man with Tobey Maguire. What do you need to watch?

I found this so stressful to watch. The underlying paranormal stuff pulls the relationships in a much harder direction than your typical romance.

I think the story is fairly straight forward and predictable. Its nice to have romance where the characters get into their relationship quicker and we get to see them actually in it and building that relationship together rather than it just happening at the end.

Animation and audio is all pretty on point, no complaints there.

I sort of feel like this fits more in line with Steins Gate type of genre than most other romance anime. There's just too much of a scientific/paranormal ...

I have very mixed feelings about this one. For sure it has too many characters and is too heavy handed on the drama. But it’s definitely competent enough to hold your attention for 12 episodes. The focus on the lead character is actually well done because it made the character interesting and a solid focus for her character development over the course of the season. This also showed the reality of the fact that children’s education takes a backseat to balancing budgets and trying to save money.

To summarize this review: This show is Isekai trash, it can be the fun popcorn kind of trash though.

To start off, the main premise of the show is a lie.

Premise:- Class loner got the left over garbage skills when the whole class got Isekaied. He is doomed to be forever alone and survive with his odd skills.

Reality:- the sarcastic prick got all the basic 101 isekai skills starting with identify and fire magic, the "loner" skill only comes into play to remove any male competition from the show as from episode 2 this is a harem now.

The isekai aspect is very basic to where they ...

Adressing an obvious thing first : I gave this movie a 5, yet I don't recommend it. I have only very few anime that I rated under 5, as usually if they don't reach that threshold, it's a drop for me. I never force myself to watch anything that is at least not mid. So unless an anime was mid just until the very few last episodes that makes it go under 5, 5 is really my lower limit, so usually not something I would recommend.

Blue Thermal had a lot of potential due to it's background theme. It's like Super Cub, Slow Loop, etc. in ... a sense that it's based on a non mainstream activity, and as such, not really covered by many anime (if none). As I enjoyed a lot those kind of anime, I gave this one a chance.

The thing with Blue Thermal is that instead of being a seasonal anime with the duration of 12-13 episodes, this is a movie. And that's where it hurts compared to any of these other non maistream activity anime, where it has :

1° Have enough titme to get into the ins & outs of the activity, which then makes the anime a somewhat "informative" anime, on top of a relaxing moment.

2° Due again to lesser time constraints, the other shows give you enough time & background informations about the different protagonists, so you can root for them or get at least some level of connection. Here you don't really care about anyone, while again the story is based about the feelings you may have for the different protagonists.

There, all is rushed, the anime doesn't give you any explanations of how the gliders operate, how the flying techniques work, the main girl has never flown anything and yet she has this absurd innate skill, and again due to time constraints you barely can notice the small hints that a decently long period of time has passed, she is almost instantly skilled at flying while you never see her learning anything, and the list goes on & on.
Fortunately, due to some Flight simulator gaming background, I have a very limited knowledge on how gliders operate, so I was able to get the main clues, but any lambda person may not understand anything about it.

The visuals are decent, while personally I'm not a fan of this mix of "fotorealistic" backgrounds with hand drwan animations on top of it. I understand the lower cost process, but again, that does lower my overall perception of the anime. Unfortunately it seems that we see more and more of this practice nowadays.

Conclusion : Overall, it's a frustrating anime movie, because all you can think of while watching it is all the issues with it.
Yet, it may really be a gem as a manga to read, because I have this feeling that all the negatives about the movie may completely be covered by the structure of a longer and more detailed manga, the movie doesn't have anything memorable about the audio, so you don't lose anything there (as opposed to a manga centered around music) and the animations are not top notch either, so here again, the manga could probably work better.
Not recommended, unless you really really need a weird anime entry to complete a grid game.

I really enjoyed No Doubt In Us! From Xu Yu and Xiao Jinyun's reviving romance, to the court conspiracy slowly unfolding around them, to the fantastical magic element- almost every aspect of the plot lands well, with lively and entertaining characters to carry it. Xu Yu and Jinming are my favourites of the cast; the energy and positivity around both of them really lightens things up, and they're both very endearing to me. Everyone is very colourful and three-dimensional, and while it's slow to show you the depths behind each character, you come out with at least some positive feeling for even the antagonists (or ...

TL;DR - Inconsistent animation quality coupled with a strange affect from the characters is jarring. Weird and horrible things are happening all around these folks, and they are just going on with their lives as if they are powerless to stop it or unable to just leave the town. "Oh, we just saw this horrible thing happen. Wow. Hey, come over for dinner!" Should you watch this? Yes, it's a very unique anime, I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoyed Salad Fingers, Gantz, or any other bizarre horror inspired animated series. You're not expecting the best anime ever, but you certainly appreciate the weird and ... creative.

I know this anime was delayed to fix the animation - they wanted to do it in black and white to capture the spirit of the manga (which I have not read) and struggled to animate the strange body horror - but after the opening episode, it can be difficult to see where the extra attention was focused.
The art is gorgeous, but the animation itself is both stunningly good, and stunningly bad. Schrodinger's animation, if you will. Sometimes it's highly polished and other times it looks like an advanced storyboard or like something Rooster Teeth would've made in the early days of RWBY.
I don't hate this show, it's quite unique from the eldritch body horror to the inconsistent animation, but the characters collective reactions are bizarre to say the least. They have a very flat affect when they aren't screaming in terror, as though they are in such a state of shock about all the otherworldly goings on that they just continue to go about their daily routines in a light daze. "This is fine."
Uzumaki certainly needed longer episodes so things are not so rushed, and more time in the oven (or more money) to polish up the animation. Something strange or horrible happens, then a couple of minutes later something else is happening, then the next bizarre event... Then everyone has some tea before something else happens. It just doesn't get the time to breathe, the pacing is way too fast.
As for the story itself... things are rushed, which prevents any meaningful world and character building. We get information tossed to us in bits here and there in the conversations or as background audio from the TV and radio, but viewers certainly want more than what is on offer.
Conclusion - I rate this a 6 despite the flaws because it's bold and the art is gorgeous. It's not a "bad" anime, but it's also not a "great" anime. It's above average, but certainly had potential to be even better if the episodes were longer. If you enjoy bizarre animations such as Salad Fingers, I think this will be right up your alley. Same for fans of horror anime such as Gantz - you're here for the experience, not fluff.

Preliminary (3/12 eps)

Usually I don't like writing so early about an anime unless I have something that I think it is important to say at the moment, and so is the case of "Maou 2099" (only 3 episodes in).
This is not a review, I haven't watched everything after all, but just some things that I thought that may sway some of the people here to watch (or don't, if you don't like what I liked):

- The MC is really refreshing for this kind of story. Usually the demon king archetype in a isekai story was associated with comedies in the past 10 years. This is good every ... now and then but it does bother me that a supposedly near God existence does not, y'know, play the part. The biggest example would be Hataraku Maou-sama, where Maou is only cool in really specific moments and even then the comedy is still the main focus.
Even though there is still some comedy to be seen here (which I quite like it), the demon king of this anime is actually an intelligent guy. Does he have some moments he acts like a fool? Yes. But he is also open minded, self-aware of his strength, hard worker, values his subordinates and properly recognize their efforts.
You can believe that he was actually a king and not only because he's strong.

- The cyberpunk setting is pretty good from an aesthetics point of view. Although the world itself was not fully explored and justified as a cyberpunk story the visuals help break the monotony of the anime trend (like how anime are overwhelmingly set in middle age fantasy).
Although there is something involving mega corporations I don't think we are gonna get much more "cyberpunk" than that, as in general this could've been set in 2024 without many problems (the biggest technology aspect that was explored was internet, and you're reading this now because we have that).
So, just be warned that if you expect the story to be exploring cyberpunk themes you're not gonna get this here (at least 3 episodes in), but the cyberpunk visuals are there and they are competent.

- I will always remember this phrase although I don't know where I heard: "when JC Staff makes an anime a dice is cast". That is to make us painfully aware that this studio have some really high highs and some really low lows. I'm glad to report that storyboard, animation, key frames, voice acting and soundtrack are "perfectly ok". This is no ufotable animation, but there's nothing atrocious with it (the characters have somewhat less complex faces every now and then that really reminds of a White Fox anime. Not bad, just thought it was curious).

- The story is surprisingly serious. I'm not saying to add a drama tag, just think its cool that in every episode we had a more serious moment. I specially thought it was interesting when Veltol shares his thought on the internet on episode 3: there he says everything we already know (the pikachu on the neck meme) but when you notice that the person making this comments had contact with the internet for less than a month it was actually a little bit cool.

So yeah, here are some point that I liked it. I wanted to share because it's really easy to dismiss this anime because of the promotional material, synopsis, or general discourse. It's easy to also go expecting a lot of cyberpunk. But I think this anime has some good things going for it as mentioned before (specially the 1st one) that really makes it worth a watch. It has been quite a fun ride.

Preliminary (4/12 eps)

This anime is another in a long line of "Strongest [Insert Category] Kicked out of Party" animes. Which is fine, I don't generally mind the incredible amounts of repetitiveness within today's RPG anime genre.

What I DO mind is how incredibly bad this anime's story and characters are. We start with the biggest flaw: despite the series title, the MC, Laust, is not the strongest. He is the weakest healer. He was kicked out of the party for being a bad healer when, in fact...he is a bad healer. He's a strong melee fighter, but he was fulfilling the role of ... a healer and doing a terrible job of it. As a result, the show fails right at the beginning to establish the baseline for this type of show: that the party is in the wrong and the MC is the innocent victim. Instead, the show TRIES to do that, but viewers who have played and understand group RPGs instead dislike the MC for applying for a group slot he isn't qualified for and failing his group.

Thus we get to failing two: since the show fails to establish the baseline "party bad/MC good" plot points, the show forces that viewpoint on the viewers by having the original party be ludicrously, cartoonishly evil and stupid, failing to understand the most basic elements of the RPG world they're supposed to have grown up in. To avoid spoilers I won't say how, but trust that you'll end up hating the storyline about as much as you hate the original party.

And finally (at least so far), there is the MC himself, who is a terrible combination of naive, bland, and irresponsible. The show has him continue the ludicrous farce that he's a healer despite it being constantly and obviously undercut by every element of the show. On top of that, no matter how badly he's mistreated, he forgives everyone, something the show treats as a good thing even when it leads to ludicrous injustice and bad outcomes for not just the MC but also everyone else. Again, won't spoil, but I feel confident that you'll know when you get to these moments, they're incredibly obvious and unambiguously bad decisions. Finally, he's just...bland. He barely talks, rarely shows emotion, barely even moves. He slowly walks around and attacks with a dagger, every once in a while saying not much of anything in short sentences. The supporting characters are far more interesting both in terms of the characters themselves as well as the action.

I'm forced to believe this is a group RPG anime written by a mangaka who has never actually played an RPG, which...is bad. At most, he's read about them in manga and is trying to bandwagon onto the genre's success.

I cannot recommend this anime on any level except as a time filler. It's the only reason I haven't dropped this yet.

Ao Oni is a film that thinks it’s far more intelligent than it actually is.

Haha... yikes. This was a trainwreck of an anime, to say the least. Watching Uzumaki:Spiral Into Horror, the adaptation to Junji Ito's critically acclaimed manga, is like watching Domestic Girlfriend because of the opening. The first episode is really well done despite pacing issues, but ends up being a catfish for the next 3 episodes as if the team working on it was ready to point and laugh straight at your face for actually thinking a Junji Ito work could be adapted well.

Before diving into the absolute horrifyingly bad parts of the show, let's "spiral" into the good! Haha... see what I did there? My ... bad, anyways. First of all, that first episode. It's a really well done pilot episode with stellar animation (despite some slightly noticable CGI moments) and the introduction to the spiral is quite chilling. It definitely draws it's audience in very well from that. It's clear why Adult Swim only used clips from the first episode for promotional footage on Uzumaki, as there was not a single moment in the other 3 episodes where I thought they were even on par with that pilot. Secondly, the music is really well done. It's haunting at points and I really liked the composition on this anime.

Well, that was all the good I could think of. Now, it's time for the BAD. And there were 2 key points that held the show back greatly.

The next 3 episodes of Uzumaki were excruciatingly bad in the animation department. Movement was horrible. Even when the characters were just walking regularly, they looked like the Blue Lock PNGs moving up and down as if they were bobbleheads. This isn't even accounting for the BEACH SCENE (one of the worst animated scenes in anime history) or the falling PNG scene. It was very disappointing how badly the rest of the series turned out to be given that there was almost 6 years of work put into whatever you would call this. Secondly, the pacing continued to get worse as the anime continued. Episode 1 has signs of this but the anime took on the sonic mentality and said "Gotta go Fast!" before taking away any immersion or suspense surrounding the story in the following episodes. It was clear that they were having trouble adapting Junji Ito's manga well and tried to cope with that by speeding things up for the general audience, but with suspenseful horror, trying to play things out on 2x speed makes everything look almost dumb with how quickly everything moves.

To conclude, the adaptation of the Junji Ito work was very, very bad. I would personally give it a grand total of 3/10; Not the worst, but I'd rather watch Dandadan, Blue Box, TYBW 3, and of course, the great Loner Life in Another World over this anime.

Anyways, I'm off to rewatch Rent a Girlfriend for the 20th time and- IS THAT A SPIRAL ON KAZUYA'S SHIRT?!?!?

In the first season, I thought maybe they would improve the animations of the second season, after all, there needs to be a budget for this.

Characters have unfounded very shitty actitudes, I suppose the idea is to make some character development eventually but has made the experience obnoxious.

Plot and Themes

At its core, Mushoku Tensei follows the journey of Rudeus Greyrat, a man reborn in a fantasy world after a tragic life filled with regret. What makes this plot so compelling is its exploration of redemption and personal growth. Rudeus, armed with the memories of his past life, navigates the complexities of his new existence with an earnest desire to change. This theme of self-improvement resonates deeply, inviting viewers to reflect on their own lives while cheering for Rudeus's transformation from a socially awkward recluse to a capable and compassionate individual. The narrative is rich with emotional highs and lows, making it a ... gripping experience from start to finish.

Worldbuilding

The world of Mushoku Tensei is meticulously crafted, featuring a vibrant tapestry of cultures, magical systems, and intricate politics. The lore is not just background noise; it’s woven into the fabric of the story, enriching every character's motivations and actions. From the diverse races—humans, elves, and demons—to the unique geographical features that influence the story's events, every element feels purposeful. The magic system is particularly noteworthy, combining depth and creativity that allows for imaginative storytelling while adhering to internal logic. This attention to detail elevates the series, creating a world that feels alive and immersive.

Characters

The strength of Mushoku Tensei lies in its characters, who are multi-dimensional and realistically flawed. Rudeus is a particularly interesting protagonist; his journey is not just about adventure but also about confronting his past mistakes. Supporting characters like Eris, Sylphie, and Roxy are equally compelling, each with their own arcs that intertwine beautifully with Rudeus’s. The dynamics between these characters are rich and complex, showcasing friendships, rivalries, and romances that develop organically. Unlike many other series, Mushoku Tensei does not shy away from exploring darker themes, making its characters relatable and authentic.

Writing Quality

The writing in Mushoku Tensei is exceptional, blending humor, drama, and philosophical musings in a way that feels effortless. The prose is engaging, with vivid descriptions that bring both the characters and the world to life. The pacing is skillfully managed, balancing action and character development, ensuring that viewers remain invested throughout. Each episode feels purposeful, contributing to the overall narrative while maintaining a satisfying flow.

Conclusion: A Pinnacle of Peak Fiction

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation is more than just an anime; it is a masterclass in storytelling. Its intricate plot, immersive world, compelling characters, and exceptional writing come together to create an experience that is almost perfect. The series challenges conventional norms, offering a fresh perspective on the isekai genre. It invites audiences to engage with themes of redemption, growth, and the human experience, making it a must-watch for both seasoned anime fans and newcomers alike. In a landscape saturated with generic tales, Mushoku Tensei shines brightly, proving itself to be a true masterpiece of peak fiction.

I have much to say about this anime. As I usually don't bury the lede, my conclusion is that it is an utterly unique anime with many good things to say for it, but a few things that prevent it from being a truly great anime.

Let's start with this: this is a very unique genre, one I haven't seen before. While it could easily be mistaken at first glance for any of isekai, fantasy, gaming, or any such genre, it isn't. It is a straight up story of medieval warfare and politics, played for comedy. There is no OP isekai'd ... character, there are no other races, there are no quests, there is no magic (with one rather ambiguous exception, see below). This is a straight up story of a prince who reluctantly takes the throne from his ailing father, wants to simply pump up the kingdom in order to sell it, retire and have a cushy life, and that's it. Problem is that he turns out to be extraordinarily competent and keeps winning.

Kind of like a medieval "the producers", without ending up in jail at the end.

There is violence in this anime. It's not overdone and is sometimes played for laughs. While there is a small amount of nudity, this isn't an ecchi anime either. It's a straight up comedy warfare anime, and that's it. That's all you get. Nothing more. No romance, no ecchi, very little fanservice, just comedy warfare.

The only magic in this anime that I could see is what appears to be telepathy that sometimes occurs between the characters, but it's never clear if it's actually telepathy or just the characters knowing each other so well that it appears to be, and it's never explained.

This is an anime that does what it needs to well. There's nothing particularly wrong with this anime. The story is well done, the music is well done, the animation is fine, I watched it to the end and even found the ending pretty satisfying, all told. The humor was somewhat understated but got the job done, it was all fine. So why didn't I rate it higher?

Okay, for that, now we need to get into the flaws.

The biggest flaw in this story was that it was hard to follow. As with many stories (not just anime) that have political intrigue, there are many different layers to the motivations and actions of the characters, and these don't always translate well into story. At times it was difficult to follow what was going on, particularly at the end where several different kingdoms and kings were forming, and breaking, alliances at the drop of a hat. I followed it mostly, but it was still difficult. They obviously made an *effort* (with explanatory animations and rather transparent exposition), but still didn't get it quite right. It was kind of like a medieval "Oregairu" with less romance.

I guess that's actually somewhat realistic, but it adversely affected the story.

Also, the MC (the prince) had it *too* good. There was no challenge he wasn't up to, and he was particularly politically effective, to the point where it actually became a bit ridiculous. Maybe this was important to the comedy, but it was always absolutely clear he would either somehow talk his way out of a situation or come to the rescue in some way. I don't really mind that all that much, but it did somewhat affect the tension that good storytelling requires.

My final conclusion: Not being isekai, fantasy, etc., but set in a medieval world, this does not fall victim to any of the tropes that such genres fall into, but somehow manages to dig its own traps and then jumps in. But if you're tired of generic isekai, etc., this might be a refreshing change. Know what you're getting into, but a recommend from me.

Black★Rock Shooter (OVA) (Anime) add (All reviews)

Mixed Feelings

Forgive me for I had to get some background information before finishing the OVA. I initially started watched the TV, but then switched over to the OVA, and then after that I gave the song Black Rock Shooter a quick listen two episodes in upon realizing it was released first. I had first heard about Black Rock Shooter from its title alone, mostly because it could have been a cool nickname for Trump’s would-be assassin. The art was what drew me in, mostly because there’s just something so undeniably cool about a girl wearing little clothing wielding a massive bazooka. So, the art was great, ... but what about the anime itself? Well, the art was more so bait for its promotion of the hollow world, I had mixed feelings about the school setting.

The story, though much of it unexplained, it was easy to interpret and largely straight forward. It could mostly be summarized as two girls going through platonic relationship problems because Mato, the protagonist, is seeing other people. Mato, who is more outgoing, strikes up a conversation with a shy girl named Yomi, and while brief, it served as the catalyst for the start of their friendship. Nearly all of their free time at school is spent together, and as a sign of their friendship Yomi gifts Mato a gift relevant to the hollow world. Later, Mato forms another friendship with Yuu as they spend more time together in class. War is largely unnecessary, so the parallel world serves as some allegorical relationship between the girls battling over something that can be solved with diplomacy. I had mixed feeling about the school plot, while the drama was entertaining, it was mostly slow-paced. Instead, most of my enjoyment from Black Rock Shooter came from the world with the dark checker boarded aesthetic, which I expected to be more prominently featured considering its stellar (yes, even the astral definition) artwork. The two worlds do not show much connection until the final few minutes of the OVA.

There’s not much to add when it comes to the characters, considering most of their characterization was used to add more drama to the plot, with it difficult to do so otherwise in a 50 minute OVA. Nevertheless, all of the main characters in the real world came across as realistic and were not unlikable. Mato, though largely outgoing, has a more awkward side to her that is really prominent when talking to Yomi. Yomi sort of reflects this, since she tends to warm up around Mato. Yuu’s character was fine when it came to her parallel in checkerboard land. One let down from the fighter girls character wise was the fact was they all practically have little to no dialogue. Their other selves, though cool, were largely only used for the battles.

The artwork is definitely praiseworthy, as has been mentioned probably multiple times in this review. The two worlds design wise contrast well with each other. One one hand, the school’s scenery used brighter colors, while visually appealing, it was quite harsh on the eye hurting at times (I always have my brightness at 0 btw). There were a few scenes that showcased this well, particularly those set outside of the classroom, since the classroom setting was rather generic and dull. On the other hand, the hollow world had a more dark atmosphere to it, and was more appealing than the normal world. The dark colors, the checkerboard pattern, the dungeon like atmosphere, etc. were all incredible. The world makes it so bazooka girl and her enemies fit right in. The animation was a nice addition, and while the animation may not be as fluid as that of the normal world, it is still a significant improvement. Its “choppy” animation style enhances the battle scenes better and makes them more impactful. The sound was on point, but this anime comes from a song, so I can’t say I’m surprised.

I was going to rate Black Rock Shooter a 5, mostly because it’s only 50 minutes and the promotional art is nice, so I gave it a 6. If I gave it this low of a rating, it would also make it show up on the “They loved it, I didn't” thing, so yeah. The later released 8 episode series offered more of a satisfactory ending.

I'm not quite sure who the audience for this show was meant to be.

If you like cute stories about girls adorably bumbling through life and growing up along the way, you will find parts of it excessively dark and unsettling. If you prefer darker themes, for the most part, you will find the story boring and the characters annoying.

I do not think all of the episodes are in chronological order, either, so sometimes the main character will say she is eighteen, and then later in the series say that she is seventeen. But it isn't too confusing aside from that, as most of the episodes ...

Not nearly as good as Season 1. Several of the arcs are simply boring, let alone not being funny. And among these, a few depart far from any notion of character development or story advancement. Some arcs leave seemingly important situations unresolved and not are concluded in subsequent arcs. I kept watching because I hoped the season would recover.

With that said, there are a few arcs that are funny and have the same feel as Season 1. In fact, one of the arcs in Season 2 may have been the best of both seasons for me.

This anime is a quick, casual watch, great for a short break but unlikely to leave a lasting impact. It offers a fun, silly escape for a few minutes at a time, but the humour may only resonate with some. Rating: 5/10

This anime is not funny, but it makes you smirk twice or thrice throughout the series. It lasts only three minutes per episode and has only 12 episodes. So, people with 30 minutes of free time and nothing to watch can watch this anime. It's neither a great anime nor a complete waste of time, but the jokes could be better.

I really don't understand the hype for this anime apart from the amazing music. The art is very mediocre. Honestly I wouldn't even call the anime average. It's just bad.

Starting out 'Punk Nana' seems interesting, a girl with certain aspirations and struggles, someone you can root for. 'Dumb Nana' is twenty years old but she acts like she's five which would be fine if she later took accountability for her actions but she doesn't. She's all about men. Cry all you want about her growing up later but she has nothing she wants to do, no dreams, no hobbies. Blast's dream is her dream & ... as for herself she doesn't have anything of her own. Honestly if the character in question was a teenager, I'd give it a pass but everytime she whines and makes a mistake and acts like she doesn't understand anything, also her friends around her just 'letting it be' because that's how Nana is - I'm reminded that this is supposed to be an adult character and it pisses me off so much.

Dumb Nana is dumb for the sake of being dumb. So much so that when in a particular scene she says 'I actually love Takumi/Nobu/someone else' it's hard to understand if this is supposed to be 'something dumb' because she's dumb and doesn't understand anything and this will build up to later on, someday when she'll be like 'I was wrong, I actually didn't love Takumi/Nobu/someone else'
OR
this is her moment of realisation that she actually loves 'said person'.
You can't really tell. All of Dumb Nana's friends treat her like a 5 year old as well and that's one of the reasons that she never really grows. The fact that a 20 year old with such a childish mindset is surviving in a city on her own with her only focus on romantic relationships is very very unrealistic. Please don't bullshit me as this being deep. She makes so many mistakes again and again and again that an adult shouldn't make so casually in the first place but that's not even the main problem! The worst part is that, all the things she does wrong are brushed off as 'her being childish' and she really doesn't have to 'pay' for anything she does wrong up until the end after she gets pregnant, when she decides to be Takumi's wife but to be fair she never had anything going for her before either, did she? Before becoming pregnant, she used to cook, act like a spoiled brat, spend all day thinking about men and OTHERS' relationships, go to a studio for SOMEONE ELSE'S band practice. She never had anything distinguished as 'her own'. It was always about either having a boyfriend or worse, someone else's thing entirely. After getting pregnant, she cooks, knits, acts like a spoiled brat, and spends all day thinking about BLAST and their dream and If Nana will be able to sing again. What about you girl? Wouldn't you want to be an artist or baker or something? :(

Anyhow, her mistakes are never a 'conflict' she has to overcome but something which is acceptable because she's immature. And she's twenty. She's an adult.

Also throughout most of the series, it's Dumb Nana who narrates the story and whatever she's saying is in reference to the events that just took place or are about to take place and most importantly her feelings. And I kinda like that but later on for the final few episodes the narration switches to Punk Nana and boy oh boy whatever she says during the narration is just random bs. I understand they tried to switch the perspective to the 'other main character' but again, for the sake of giving importance to the 'other main character' and not because PUNK NANA being the narrator will make a lot of sense here. I honestly thought Dumb Nana's narration was nice and they should have kept it. Because Punk Nana's narration goes like "Hey Nana, we were like lovers, I realise if I were a fish I'd swim away forever, with REN!!!!??!? what? Is this about Nana or Ren? Pick your poison girl. Honestly in the last few episodes they wanted the other main character's perspective so much that they forced it even if it doesn't make sense. Not to mention, Punk Nana also switches between Yasu and Ren so much, it's hard to tell which is the one she loves though it's not as bad as Dumb Nana.

By the end, even though none of the characters really grew, surprisingly Dumb Nana is the character I liked. All the other characters were so horrible, atleast DUMB NANA accepts her reality as it is what it is, whatever has happened has happened and I'll give that to her. On the other hand, I grew up hating Punk Nana instead. She's literally the most selfish character ever. Even in last 5 mins of the final episode, Punk Nana keeps persuading Nobu to be with Dumb Nana. Why? Dumb Nana has clearly accepted her reality and Nobu should be allowed to date other women and most importantly, isn't that what the Nana fans preach that the story is about? Accepting that things won't always go your way and making sacrifices for the sake of yourself and the people you care about? Reality is harsh right? Definitely not for Punk Nana! She, being a peabrain doesn't understand that and still wants Dumb Nana to be Nobu's bride. Regardless of how much of an unhealthy burden this is going to be on Nobu. I'd completely understand if she wanted them to sort out their misunderstandings and harsh feelings towards each other but that's not the case! Additionally Punk Nana and Nobu are supposed to be like childhood friends? Their dynamic is supposed to be a highlight for actual friendship in the story? But she only wants him to suffer? Only and only for the sake of herself feeling 'comfortable'! I despise this character so so much and it baffles me how much people love her. Yeah she's a cool woman who is rude and obnoxious, wears cool outfits and smokes, I'd see why you'd be enthralled, but at the end of the day even she's not sure about what she aims for, she questions Nobu 'what is it we're fighting for if not Nana' while he's clearly uncomfortable of doing it all for Dumb Nana's sake because she's not his' anymore - like he should! So yeah, it's all a facade to make the audience think she's a 'strong independent woman' lol. At the end of the day, even she's all about her man. But worst of all she's a selfish self-centred bitch who only cares about herself and no amount of childhood trauma justifies being such a shitty friend.

And yeah, contrary to how I felt at the beginning, I actually like Dumb Nana waaaaaay more than Punk Nana though I necessarily don't like any of them on a broad spectrum.

I can only write so much. Other reviews have addressed the other problems. Don't watch this anime. Watch Gintama instead.
