Etotama (Anime) add (All reviews)
Jun 25, 2015
My review on Etotama im unsure about the series to be perfectly honest i have gripes but overall i enjoyed it more than disliked it but it definitely wasn't great.

Story- You can read the synopsis that's on the site already but in short its about a girl who wants to become member of the Chinese zodiac her memory is hazy and her journey is basically to find out how to become a member and having to do silly things in order to become a member as while living off a high school student she meets.

I thought the story was good in many ways it was funny alot with the "breaking the fourth wall" scenes and so on but the ecchi seeming fanservice was kind of a turnoff for me throughout the span of the anime the path to trying to obtain a position within the zodiacs was also enjoyable through great looking fight scenes which uses the cgi effect which some people hate but if it looks good i have no complaints and if the fights are decent i have no complaints.

Art- 2 words really vibrant,the color palette the anime has is great its just really in your face colorful even during some dark scenes it still looks great.
It uses cgi animation which looks good during the fight scenes esp in the last episode.

Sound- Honestly it wasn't terrible but there was absolutely nothing in my opinion that stood out to me the intro is probably the only that stood out and was somewhat decent but everything else was just straight up generic i don't really have a gripe or love for anything in terms of music. The fight scenes voice actors and characters speaking were all in sync and sounded great but based on OST and that its nothing special.

Characters- The Chinese zodiac includes 12 people represented by an animal so their are a decent amount of characters including the male leading character and another character which adds up to about 14 you will see 13 majority of the time. The characters had all different personalities some cute and enjoyable and some you couldn't really hate or like because they weren't broadcasted as much to form an opinion i enjoyed some characters but overall it was just average no real character development just static characters throughout the anime.

Enjoyment- a light 7... 7/10 truly a 6.8/10 in my personal opinion.

Overall- 7/10 if you are just looking for new anime to just watch and add to your list then watch it but dont expect much but everyone has a different opinion so you may hate it or you may love it but i thought it was OK at best.
