Amnesia (Anime) add (All reviews)
Jan 24, 2021
As someone who got into otome games thanks to Amnesia, I am forever grateful to this confusing yet still intriguing anime!

I think I watched this back in highschool, and I was just newly getting into the genre of reverse-harems. This anime is an adaption of an otome game, and that's why there's no real ending. It leaves on a "if you want to know the rest, buy the game!" sort-of ending... which honestly, not a good feeling for anyone expecting an anime to get a proper closure. So I can see why, from an anime-perspective, why this anime series is kinda crappy. It gives you a mystery and then ends on a cliffhanger, forever unknown of what you just watched.

I definitely felt super confused and unsatisfied by how the anime ended.. but after a few months to a few years, I always came back to this anime, I was always intrigued by the plot and also the romance in the anime (I love shipping the MC with any guys in the show, and this anime CERTAINLY delivered on that aspect xD). So I watched it again, this time prepared for an inconclusive ending, and I found myself just falling in love with the characters and the overall design to the anime. Eventually I started doing some researching and found out that this is actually based on a otome visual novel... and hence, the start of a new era for me as an otome gamer lol.

This is a very niche genre, so this definitely isn't everybody's cup of tea. As someone who really likes reverse harems, where I can support a girl MC being surrounded by pretty boys and falling in love with her, I absolutely dig stuff like that. So this is a 9/10 series for me. It helped get me into reverse harems and helped me discover otome games, so this has a special place in my heart. I don't know how to explain it, but all the sweet stuff in the anime fills my heart with warmth and I get super giddy from it <3!

From a more "objective" anime viewing experience, I'd probably give it a 5/10 for it's beautiful voice acting, art and premise, however it loses a lot of points because of a lack of an ending and explanation for what the crap is going on. For anyone else interested in finding out more about this, the game is out on steam, and you can probably find a summary of what's happening on the internet if you want a quick read. It's mostly just a quirky romance visual novel that pulls on your heart strings lol (which is something I live for xD)!
