Preliminary (11/12 eps)
Swagamoto is one a several anime, from the past few seasons, digging anime back from the depths of the grave it had dropped itself into.

The stories are simplistic enough and quirky enough to keep your attention and let the characters shine. With only a handful of returning characters, each one of them are likable and unique and play very well off of each other. This show doesn't take itself too seriously and loves to play by the rule of cool, which I admire.

Sakamoto himself is OP and knows it, and so does everyone else. This doesn't keep things boring, though. Watching all of the inventive ways he pulls off stunts and gets things done never fails to put a smile on my face as I cheer him on. And the always perfectly timed theme puts the right amount of energy into every scene.

The simplicity of the story and the humor really gives works in the favor of the show. You never go in expecting to much and are pleasantly surprised when the show throws you a curveball. The side characters act as great foils for Sakamoto as he stylishly makes his way through life, leaving them crashing in his wake of glory.

Overall Swagamoto gets a 9/10 in my book. It's trash, but it's some one of the best I've seen recently.
