In a world, where having strenght and power is everything, we get a little boy with a great dream. Something we've seen already and it seems simple at first but hear me out.
Story -
The story is pretty good, nothing new to the table, but its presented in an amazing way that glue us into the screen episode after episode and leaving us into wanting more and more of that even though we are familiar with it.
The pacing is very good as it there's never an episode where you feel things are a little bit slow or boring.
Characters -
This is definitely one of the best things in the show, has there are some excellent characters among the cast. Even side characters felt like real persons and not just a "filler" character for the plot. The characters feel alive, and even though there are a lot of characters every single one of them feels like an individual. Everyone has a personaliy, dreams, ambitions and regrets. Each of them is a person and wants to leave their impression on the world. This is cast is so spectacular to the point where you can understand the antagonists. Even root for them a little bit. Overall the casting is amazing and even tho there are good or evil persons, you fee like there's equallity and it's balanced since everyone has their goal.
Animation/Art Style -
The art style definitely looks childish, but whenever i heard about Ousama Ranking i always felt curious about how the show was so acclaimed with an art style that most of the anime fans would avoid. For me it's great, it looks kinda childish but enjoy it that way. Unique traits are important and this is one that makes this show so unique and memorable!
The animation is just god damn beautiful! The fights look clean and animated perfectly! It was truly enjoyable, it is one of those projects where you can feel that the staff that produces it, are all on the same page and completly understands the assignment. Simply 10/10 animation!
Soundtrack -
The team made an excellent job with the music. There were some moments when it trully gave me the chills! The music production on this is just fenomenal as they made such beautiful, profound and vibing tracks that we are left speechless. The more you listen to it, the more you see yourself getting sucked into this world with so much to look for. Simply put... IT'S GORGEOUS!
