Why was this anime so good? Like damn I played the game afterwards and it was embarassing how much better the anime was storywise of course gameplaywise the anime sucks because its not a game you genius Im sorry but how the heck am I supposed to write 2200 characters about an anime I watched 20 years ago? What? I dont have to write this? Well IM WRITING IT ANYWAY Look I remember I really enjoyed the characters. Lets start with the villains. The villains felt very Team Rocketesque being really funny and all but each of them had a personality and were really cool looking and they all had their moments within the anime so they were great and a joy to watch. The main characters were pretty cool too and all had their time to shine as well. Oh yeah man the music The music was so good The openings and endings still live rentfree in my head...I remember the second opening showed up in my head one day and I was like wait what the heck is this?. Then once I figured it out I was overjoyed by viewtiful memories. By the way I still carry a big lesson from this anime which was that ketchup is actually REALLY GOOD. And that I shouldnt be worried about wasting the fries with ketchup because it actually enhances its flavor. I havent learned that lesson yet but I sure as hell remember it This anime just had a lot of charm man. But we gotta enter some groundbreaking territory here and I hope youre ready for a bumpy road: the art style The art style SUCKS said animeweaboouser234. People just have no taste these days. You see every freaking anime and their animemoms already has that genericbeans visual with super cute anime girls and stuff. Either that or theyre chibi. This anime DOES. NOT. CARE. It has neither chibi nor humanesque characters. It has tiny kinda chubby funnylooking characters. And I love all of them and wish them the best. Ok maybe not all of them are chubby Alastor exists. SPEAKING OF Alastor hes a great character. I like him his character has quite the developments that I wouldnt spoil even if I remembered them. Back to the art style: it makes sense with the game and I think it fits well with the overall atmosphere. It also feels great to watch an anime that is actually somewhat different than the usual. I wouldnt want that ALL the time but who would want ketchup ALL THE TIME am I right? Probably not. Anyway I really have some fantastic nostalgia feelings for this show so I hope you dont mind my terrible review I just wanted to express these feelings. Maybe Ill eventually be able to rewatch it and have some clearer thoughts about it but then my feelings will probably change. Dont know if itll be for the better or for the worse but Im just happy Viewtiful Joe exists. Thank you.
