Warning possible Spoilers:

After finishing Hand Shakers I'm surprised that this has a pretty low score on MAL because honestly I thought it wasn't too bad sure it's not the best, but it is most certainly not the worst.

Reading the description the story gave me a Future Diary vibe and it actually was in some ways similar to it just without the gore, killing and insane Yandere, it's about people who would become hand shakers and defeat all the other hand shakers so they could have a chance to face God and either fight him or be granted a wish sound familiar yet and the more the story progressed it got more interesting overtime finding out how everything worked, this show could also have put in the Romance and Comedy tags because there is some of that in here.

The characters were actually pretty interesting it was nice seeing the relationship develop between Tazuna and Koyuri as they got more experienced over time, the other hand shakers were mostly interesting because their wishes were actually more good than evil so you kinda feel bad for them when they get defeated plus they didn't act like assholes towards the MC's after they were defeated and actually became friends with them which was an interesting twist for once instead of seeking revenge.

The Artstyle is pretty much what grabbed my attention, it was very colourful and reminded me of No Game No Life, but a lot more shiny it was interesting seeing this style since this was probably a first for me with this type.

The action was quick, but satisfying I've never seen a Gear sword before so that was new for me and the powers the other hand shakers had were also interesting.

Hand Shakers is actually a decent anime, if you've seen future diary or like action animes then this might be a decent watch for you, it depends really on your taste, but I mostly enjoyed it
