Mixed Feelings
The biggest disappointment of summer season 2015.It got so overhyped before it aired just because it was made by the creators of Angel Beats.To be honest I was hyped as well since I'm a big AB fan and have rated it a 10/10,but this show had clearly one of the weakest story lines and character developments from what I've seen.
Let's start with the story.Some teenagers over the world develop super powers that are incomplete and often have things that backfire,like getting super tired after using an ability.Our MC is a lazy good looking male who has the power of possessing someone for few seconds which helped him cheat on tests and he became like one of the best students.He used his power for everything that could benefit him,even picking up girls.Anyways he get's kidnapped by other super teenagers that tell him he needs to transfer to the new school for super teenagers where they try to save other ability wielders from scientists who try to use them as test subjects.
Overall a good idea but the transitioning into anime was so bad it hurts.First off,this could at least a 24 episode show,hell just the last episode could be used for another 11-13 episodes.Also a lot of plot holes and tons of unanswered questions but I don't want to talk more about it,because those are heavy spoilers.Just watch the show and you'll see what I mean.
Now the good things from the show:
-I loved the art,it really had the Angel Beats feel to it so plus points there.
-The sound was really good,explosions,abilities,voice acting and the music was great.Bonus points here too.
-Funny scenes,there were lots of funny scenes including probably my favorite character from the show Joujirou(because he was almost the same as Takamatsu from AB!).Also Nao's faces where great through the show.
-Some characters,Yusarin/Misa and Nao were kinda saving the show to an extent.They had some nice background story and character development.Nao was best girl ,Misa 2nd best.
Overall I'm not happy how the show ended but it's still a watchable show and if you'd like to experience another Jun Maeda's wild ride,then do it.
My final rating : 6/10
