Some 'people' may describe Slice of Life is nothing but a boring genre, the phrase for someone who dislike SOL is "Why do we have to watch anime that tells the life we live day to day?", but the truth is not like that. One of the main objectives of a Slice of Life genre is delivering a straight message of life itself. And Barakamon is a great example to prove that.

Barakamon begins with a small plot. A small plot that circles Barakamon is not giving the anime a weakness, but it give the story a power to weighted the story itself. One of the reasons why is because the premise of the story. The premise really represents the true feeling of the story.
The story makes all of the genre (including Shounen and Magic) speechless with no words in the brain, it's really fresh your mind.

For a modern anime, Barakamon has a beautiful animation, a magnificent light, and a unique character design makes the art is one of my favorite. The animation is well-matched within the story.

One thing we must notice in the sound settings is the Opening song, "Rashisa" sung by SUPER BEAVER is really makes a reflection to myself, the feelings of the song is delivered successfully within my heart. While the background music is quite decent, the seiyuu did a very good job in bringing such feelings to the screen.

As we can see, the massive character development that occurs is a center in our main character, Handa Seishuu. As the other character, there is a simplistic but unique character division on display, surely it is a great character division.

I enjoyed Barakamon a lot, it's successfully charming my harsh feeling into a mild feeling. It's quite memorable and full of excitement that occurs in the story. It is highly recommended for a simple Slice of Life fans.

In the end, Barakamon is another great show that succeeds in the feelings and excitement in the story, by the way (this is the first time I threw a 9 in my review...). Trust me, it works...
