Super Crooks

A new anime from Japan that has an original story and unique characteristics not found in the million other animes released this year!

Super Crooks is original...which is refreshing by the way, and the anime art style is quite retro which is great! None of this CGI anime crap that makes soulless animation in straight lines from a keyboard instead of a drawing board. The retro art style shines! This art style could have been made in the 90's and we would never know it!

The story is well written also! I have seen a number of IMDB user reviews saying that this show is just like my Hero Academia and even a few saying it's Fairy Tale rebooted for villains?! Clearly these bozos that posted those reviews are fake and they are reviewing this anime just from reading the shows generic description! They made me laugh because it's clear they never watched this show...which makes me wonder why on earth they took the time to write a fake review with a poor score? Review bombing is all I could come up with.

Regardless of the fake reviews, this show is excellent and I have no doubt it's going to become an extremely popular anime with a very bright future! Basically it's a hit. I know a hit series when I see one, and this is it! I am posting this review on the day they just released all of the episodes- Nov.27, 2021. Six months from now this show will be a well known hit with cosplayers at conventions and a green light for season two!

I give it a SOLID 8/10! Don't miss this one!

I had a hard time to get used to the animation, they are really good but not my taste. The Story is intresting and since the Boys I really enjoy Shows that draw a thin Line between good and bad heroes. First i wanted to quit after the first episode but I got my own rule never judge before you finished episode 3. The Story is fun, the crooks are fun and Glad i watched it till the end. Only thing beside the animation style that bothered me was the Soundtrack. Music is the most important factor for me. Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bepop had music that i don't listen too, music that is just noise for me but I loved both Soundtracks, they are fantastic. But this one... 1 / 10 for that horrible music that only fit once, when the Brothers Made their Red button Run.

Netflix has found its Invincible or The Boys. Targeted for mature audience like me who found Arcane very predictable and too slow.

The animation is uneven and not groundbreaking like Arcane is, but they didn't hold back on the action and the ending is conclusive (unlike Arcane, which I deduct one point just for THAT ending alone)and true to the comic (I'm assuming this is just a one-season show?).

The second half of the show (episode 7 onwards) is a bit messy but it's still a good time. Binged all 13 episodes in one sitting but I got up from my seat and danced to the intro song for every episode lol.

Too bad Jupiter's Legacy is cancelled, will there be more coming from the universe or this is it?

First few episodes, it was a show you'd put on in the background while your phone. By the end, I truly felt I had watched a good program, with a good plot.

The over saturated superhero field found a place for SuperCrooks. Unique, interesting, good character evolution with a nice twist. This show shouldn't go unwatched by avid anime fans. Some reminiscent of The Boys in it, either way, I enjoyed it, watched in one sitting.

Given the fact that the superhero genre is starting to go stale and with shows like Invincible and The Boys utilising the narrative perspective of the line between heroes and villains being blurred. I'm pleasantly surprised by how refreshing this show is. The elements of the characters gives you a wholesome suicide squad vibe. The animation is beautiful and the influence of western and eastern together is reminiscent of Shinichiro Watanabe to (creator of Samurai Champloo, Cowboy Bebop and Space Dandy) combined with the funky music just gives off such a cool vibe. I'm glad that they stuck to the more adult themes as it separates it from anything Marvel or DC in regards to animation.

Also I literally can't stop listening to the opening credits song it's that funky and amazing.
