But why though That was the thought that perpetuated in my head as I sat down and watch the entirety of this series. At first my anime friend circle commented on how dreadful and cliched they was. I thought them to be dramatic. Evidently it was not until after the second episode that the commentary was warranted. That I found myself to be on the same page as them. Like our edgy protagonist I forged ahead gave this a fair go. Yet at its conclusion I was left asking But why though? Well it all starts with the writing. I am going to metaphorize the abysmal writing style as a rollercoaster. Except that the rollercoaster gives you whiplash to the point of concussion. At times the writing will venture in one direction then out of the blue: PLOT CHANGE It is almost as if the writers scarce repository of ideas seemed to deplete faster than my patience with this anime they must throw in SOMETHING to prevent stagnation otherwise I was going to be put into a cold sleep. So what the hell have they done? Or rather what they have not done. They have not explained anything properly. Example is the character writing. Half the cast do not be in the story but they threw them in there anyway because why the hell not? I mean they just looked at some outdated criteria for a good anime and ticked them off like a checklist. One such criteria is having a lot of characters. That is what supposedly makes a good anime right? Lots of characters But the problem with that was I had no care for half of them. Because they have not explained them well enough for me to care. If that was not egregious enough they keep throwing in new characters halfway through the series leaving me wondering But why though SPOILERS The production is.... but why though kind of bad. Animation for me is in three parts: 1. Storyboarding 2. The animation itself. 3. Sound Design. AND THEY ALL VEXED ME. Storyboarding wasted too much time showcasing stuff. The Animation made me feel I was back in 2010 and the Sound Design is just... empty. I do not recommend this anime.
