Another (Anime) add (All reviews)
Apr 9, 2014
First of all, I only considered watching this cause I want to see something Horror in anime. This as the cause gave me low expectations about the Anime. Although I don't think I am wrong I still think it doesn't give the Horror vibe I've been searching for. But please don't misunderstand, I am not saying it is bad at all it's just that I think it goes over into the Suspense or Mystery more. In my opinion, it resembles the Final Destination movies a whole lot. Like the sudden but slow deaths in it. I mean it's like telling me, "This Character will die in less than 1 minute." or something and then I'd say, "Oh, ok... so that character will die... but how, in what way will that Character Die?" That question does incite some intrigue just enough to put me on the edge of my seat. LoL.


---STORY: 8
As I said before it's like a Final Destination movie cut into episodes so there shouldn't have been much to the story. Well... It actually is more than that although still kinda basic. The story is set upon mostly how will Sakakibara, Kouichi & *company* solve a certain kind of mystery. Simply speaking, that certain How was what made me curious of watching the next upon next episode.

Opinion: Good.

---ART: 9
This kind of Animation (For Me) is definitely one of the greatest! Specifically the one P.A. Animation does. If I would rate them animation studios #1 would've definitely been P.A. and with like and in 2nd Kyoto Animation. Ok so back to the Anime review. The Art is portrayed very well in a way that it should have scared me IF* I watched it by myself at night. It gave a realistic feel whilst staying true to Anime. The Death scenes though were quite unreal like, "How did the blood spray reach that far!?" and the characters look like... say, characters in a make your own anime avatar but you can only change the hair/accessories but I guess you could say that to most anime.

Opinion: Great!

---Sound: 6
The BGM or Sound Effects were so-so. They were put at the almost perfect time to match the mood. Why a 6? That's because even though the songs did match the mood, they didn't give out the feels as opposed to some popular ones from Movies like Jaws or Scream etc. The sound effects also seem recycled, like hearing the same stabbing sound in every murder anime you would have watched. As for the OP & ED, I think the OP is good and fits the anime quite well. And as for the ED, I don't know if they tried to make something emotional like Angel Beats' ED but no, it just doesn't work out like that. All in all sound/music is good but definitely not one to remember.

Opinion: Fair.

---Character: 8 (Roundabout Spoilers)
I think the character development was pretty well done. Only part of what that could do was make you say "WTF!?" when someone dies. That feeling of getting close to someone for the first time then after some seconds he/she dies. Yes, that's how I felt but also got sad at the last episode about Akazawa Izumi. The Characters themselves aren't just like Student Council President with a crush on MC or something like that, it's something Deeper.

Opinion: Very Good.

---Enjoyment: 9
Kyaaa~! Ahhh~! Nooo~! Hiyaaa~!
Ok, well that 9 came from watching the series a 2nd time. The 1st time I watched it was at broad daylight on my SGSIII at public places. (No, it wasn't because I was scared. Really) The 2nd time was with my friends using our Projector at night. You might have guessed that they were easily scared. Well all I could say was it was a fun night, can't beat those Expressions!

Opinion: Great!!!

Overall: 8.00000008
It is, without a doubt, a Great Anime overall. What I found instead of the Horror was the joy of watching this anime. Something I'd definitely recommend to people who like Suspense/Mystery/Horror or Random, Unexplainably-Explainable Deaths.

Thanks for reading my review and another great "Thank You!" to a certain someone who got me motivated! Please say any problems you have with the Review as a comment in my profile or as a PM. Again, thanks for reading!

Cause it seemed like a certain character was cutting the review, I have rewritten the review and triple checked the contents. I don't think there is any spelling/grammar errors left and it is now officialy complete.
