Story: The concept of a survival game with cellphones is not completely original but Mirai Nikki does have these few creative twitches that makes up for it. The story itself can be a bit confusing especially towards to end but the general idea is to kill and win since it is a survival game after all. Except one problem Yuki is weak and yes a bit well ALOT of a coward. The story revolves around him and Yuno depending on each other more sort of Yuki depending on Yuno though. There's sabotage, sacrifice, love, betrayal and at parts have you wanting to lock all of your windows and hide under your bed. This anime seriously plays with your mind sometimes though it's all worth it.
Art: The art is pretty good. Not horrible, not amazing. The author did do a good job on drawing Yuki and Yuno. Just looking at Yuki you can already tell how much of a coward he is. As for Yuno i think it perfectly fits her personality her bright pink hair in piggy tails really makes her look just like one of the moe characters in anime ... this is the part where you sorta think back and question your existence. LOL.
Sound: I loved the opening themes and the second ending theme was amazing. The lyrics generally fits the theme though sound wise it sorta reminds me of Greek opera. LOL not that its a bad thing I mean who doesn't love a little opera now and then. The music throughout the series do help set the mood like when there's a sad scene a pretty sad song will come on. I don't think the music is one of Mirai Nikki's strong point though.
Character: Now this is definitely the best thing about Mirai Nikki. The characters are imo very well developed mainly focusing on Yuno and Yuki here. Though the other characters are very important too, you wouldn't believe how many characters in this series do not seem like how they are at first glance. Yuki who is weak (and has you shaking your head of how pathetic he is sometimes) and Yuno who is strong, smart and madly in love with Yuki. You'd think someone would be taken advantage of here though it might not be the person you had in mind. Yuno is definitely the most interesting character for me theres so many words to describe her, bipolar, schizophrenic, psychopathic but to me shes like the yandere from heaven LOL though i doubt any yandere would be in heaven.
Enjoyment: After the first episode i couldn't stop watching it. It may seem a bit ordinary at first but dont fall for it , its a trap lol the character development and interesting twists just keep you engaged and intrigued through the whole series.
Overall: Overall I would give it a 10 just because i enjoyed it so much but even i must admit there are a few cliche scenes here and there. Im telling you if you want something suspenseful, thrilling, action packed, and psychological then ding ding ding we got a winner! LOL mirai nikki is the perfect anime for you. Enjoy the series if you decide to watch it oh and remember the bucket ;)
