100-man no Inochi no Ue ni Ore wa Tatte Iru

All of the anime tropes are so played out but for some reason - and decades later - they still persist.

One such trope is the flashback in the middle of an action scene which tells an unnecessary and boring tale of the characters past. It doesn't add much and simply fills time and takes away from the action. This show does this more than any other I've yet encountered.

The show itself is actually fairly good for what it is. The constant cutaways and backstories that are typically meaningless and unhelpful are just too boring and frustrating to rate this higher than a 6 In my opinion.

Thankfully they don't employ the absurd ESA obnoxious tropes such as the cringey squeaking child and screaming characters that absolutely drive me insane so that 6th star is a result of that. I don't understand how that still exists in the 2020s as from every forum I've ever read - people are either annoyed by it or indifferent to it and no one actually seems to like it. Kudos for not falling into that.

I never depend on anime reviews. People will mindlessly rate an average anime higher than it should ever be and argue people to death that don't feel the same. That leaves a lot of really bad anime shows with overly high ratings that they don't deserve. This anime is one of them. It is boring and the characters are extremely uninteresting. Even the story itself is stale.

This anime seems to suffer from being shallow while attempting to be deep at the same time. It doesn't work on an anime like this where the characters have no chemistry and also have zero reason for you to like any of them. This anime tries to be funny but it's not. It tries to be serious at times but it doesn't work.

I don't know but maybe Japanese writers need to pick a different lead than to always make the main character a wimpy highschool misfit. That's literally 90% of the male lead characters in these shows. It gets old and stale very quickly. It doesn't help that's what this series revolves around.

How can it be interesting to watch the same anime plot play out over and over and over again in every anime? How can you not be bored watch this series? It's nothing new or ground breaking.

It the same ol' same ol'. There was a time when anime used to be unique and interesting. Now it's just the same wimpy highschool kid getting nose bleeds around girls on every anime.

If you can't tell this anime is awful. You don't even need to watch it to know what every episode will be about. It's the same plot and character line up as every other anime these days.

This is great show. If I was to try and compare it to another show it's a cross between In Another World With My SmartPhone & The Rising of the Shield Hero, with a little Death Note mixed in. The smartphone show is just fun, the Shield Hero show is awesome, and Death Note is dark and witty. This show is right in the middle. Some light fun stuff mixed with some heavy emotions and consequences.

Infrequent use of profanity, and the profanity is more on the mild side. No sex or nudity, but a couple of sexual themes.

Totally worth the watch.

For me this show is a 10/10 not for the reason you may think what really push this show for me is charter interaction because I love seeing the point of view everyone had in this show they all have real points of view. That what pushs the show for me plus the world building is very interesting.

The first season of 100-man offered something different, and the author deserves credit for that. However, it ultimately didn't live up to expectations.

The second season was... weird. The show shifted a bit, adopting a more arc-focused structure instead of the previously dull approach.

Still, it's one of those cases where the phrase "go read the source material" definitely applies.
