Megalobox

With an older school animation style that is reminiscent of some of the classics (Cowboy Bebop, etc.), a simple and clean story and characters just deep enough to enjoy it was worth the binge.

Series length about perfect, episodes were straight forward storytelling without much filler and the final episode was surprisingly fulfilling, especially considering I'm one of those anime fans who always thinks the endings are rushed / needed more wrap up.

All in all it's a nice clean 13 episode arc with a tidy ending leaving one satisfied and feeling "complete".

FYI watch until the final seconds of the credits.

Pros:

• Classic / Old school animation style.
• Good music, with some unique scores for the show.
• Characters that are simple and identifiable with most not feeling like cardboard cutouts.
• Short but satisfying series that is easily binged.
• English dubbing.

Cons:

• Animation quality dips at times, some distracting irregularities.
• Predictable story, but it doesn't pretend to be more than what it is.
• English dubbing misses some of the dialogue (I watch with subtitles on).

This anime is just straight up amazing and I highly regret delaying watching it. Everything from the animation to the story to the characters to the voice acting is absolutely spectacular. A longer review would end up being redundant praise. The music is great, the fight choreography is perfect, its really hard for me to find any flaws in the story or the show itself. I would highly recommend watching.

I wanted to give this anime 10/10 but i didn't. Because the story is way too simple. No match to today's boxing but still enjoyable. Art is 7/10. Soundtrack is awesome 10/10. Story is 7/10. But somehow with simple story this series can make you get obsessed with it, just like it did to me. So, it is worth to give this anime a try ;D

Megalobox official review

Megalobox was a great show about Gearless Joe, a boxer in a tournament against power-suited opponents.

It did a great job of hitting the right gritty tone and I loved the old school look.

Worth a watch, and im hoping for a second season.

8/10

Super hooked the first time I watched it. the whole vibe of this anime is dope - cowboy bebop and oldschool vibes...
