there are many aspects of this anime that I like so I'll get over with them quickly; It's made by the creators of Death Note a anime that I seriously like, the premise is interesting and it's handled well during the series, it doesn't get melodramatic for a highschool student drama (Thank god), it keeps a nice contrast between seriousness and comedy and it's very grounded in realism to give the expectator a clear view of the world of the manga artists which makes this series even more recommended for someone who wants to be a manga artist.

Now what I don't like of the anime is some mishandlings with the transition from comic to animation, this series has A LOT of dialog and it feels quite uncanny when characters stand still for so long talking making me wonder how do they even breathe. I guess you can say that I'm exaggerating but the thing is that for animation it's better to cut down the dialog for more exposition since everything is in motion you can tell more through expresion and atmosphere rather than words only, people who watch TV don't have the patience for dialog as someone who reads books or comic.

This leads me to this conclusion, it's better to read the manga not only because it gets rid of that uncanny feeling I explained earlier but also because character models and commedic expresions have better impact on the manga which is weird considering that it doesn't have the advantage of motion

Also one last thing, this isn't really a spoiler but don't set your expectations to high on the ending. It's very anticlimatic and it does not give a clear vision to what happens to most of the characters
