Battle scenes! Yandere! Bombs! What more could you want from an anime?
Well Mirai Nikki gives you all of that and more!

Story (9):
Yukiteru Amano is an observer who writes everything that he observs in his cell phone. He is also a loner with no friends other than his 'imaginary' friend Deus Ex Machina. At least that is until he finds out that Deus is real and is a dying god. Deus gives him a 'diary' that predicts the future and he is set up in a battle-to-the-death/last-one-standing-wins scenario with 11 other ‘future diary’ holders and the last one standing gets to become god when Deus dies, or else the world will end. Yukiteru ends up teaming up with his schoolmate and long-term stalker Yuno Gasai to try to survive.

Art (8):
The art was generally very good. The style was very similar to the manga, which was good. The fight scenes were very well done and there were few inconsistencies. The character designs were simple but good and there was good attention to detail.

Sound (9):
The sound was truly amazing. For a start the voice actors were great, particularly Misuzu Togashi (Origami in Date a Live and Minatsu in Seitokai No Ichizon) as Yukiteru and Mai Aizawa (Mio in Nichijou and Rie in Clannad) as Minene.
All of the music was very catchy and well suited to the anime. I loved the animation of opening and ending sequences.

Charactrs (10):
Honestly, I think the best part about Mirai Nikki is its fabulous characters. Everybody knows this anime for its Yandere character Yuno Gasai, who is crazy but still very lovable as well as mysterious. Yukiteru, who is a complete wimp, is not all that likeable but I do have to say is still a well-developed character. But that is not all this anime has to offer in terms of characters, in fact Mirai Nikki has a huge cast of loveable well-developed characters.To name a few, Minene Uryuu, a well-known terrorist who starts off as one of the ‘bad guy’ characters in the anime but transforms from a foe to an ally, and a very helpful one at that, and Yukiteru’s mysterious schoolmate Aru Akise who loves to play the part of the detective and hardly ever shows up at school. And there are many, many more of these types of characters in this anime, too many to name, but all you need to know is that they are all really awesome!

Overall Enjoyment (9):

Overall I think that Mirai Nikki is truly an anime like no other. If you like somewhat horror-ish action anime, this is definitely an anime you should check out!
