'Erased' is a quite interesting concept that sort of reminded me of 'Detective Conan' due to it having a similar concept. (These two series are still very different so don't think this will be similar) However, there is one massive flaw in this series. If there was more explanation for everything the series would have been so much better. Many things were left unexplained that could have made the series a lot more interesting. This was the first time I ever found a show where the live action was better in fact as everything was explained better in it. (I'm talking about the Netflix one) But let's not get into that because were talking about the anime, not the live action.
One of the other flaws found in this series is it is way too predictable, especially when it comes near the end. This show 'Erased' is all about the mystery behind who is the killer. When it comes close to the end, their hints are way too obvious and give it away instantly.
Unlike other mystery shows, this one is a lot less suspenseful and tries to give more of a heartwarming experience throughout the show. (this doesn't mean it's never intense) This is done by not only focusing on the mystery of the murderer, but also focusing on him living his childhood once again and hanging out with all his old friends. It also does this through the romance between him and a girl he grew up with. This may sound creepy since he is technically so much older than her but the show did it in a way that made it a lot less creepy.
overall score: 7/10.
