Charlotte

It's a cool story that i haven't seen in much series before. But thing is: It's to short

It's a good watch, good balance between drama and comedy.

No complaints, but there's so much wasted potential here, It could have been easily stretched out to more than 20 episodes...

The first 2-3 episodes of the show are amazing and gets you hooked showcasing what the characters are capable of, but the middle episodes were quite boring and have way too much filler content for a 13 episode anime. However the show regains footing in the last few episodes and ties up nicely. I would recommend you watch the show only if you are ready to binge it. Overall a good show in my opinion

This is the same people who made "Angel Beats!". I heard good things about this since it aired but it was in my long list of shows that I plan to watch eventually, the reason I ended up watching it sooner than later was because my friend had just finished it & bugged me to watch it for days(lol). So my first impression after episode 1 was, "this looks like it could be interesting, i'm curious to see where it'll go". So I watched 1-5 & said to myself well this isn't bad its definitely interesting but its far from the scale of praise everyone gives it, seems pretty average/slightly above(in terms of story) to me. So I watched 1 more and everything from that point to the end just took a complete left turn in story(in a really good way) I didn't expect it at all. Went from a slightly above average > pretty awesome show. The story is about teenagers who develop supernatural abilities around puberty & a group of students from a school that houses these special teens go out & prevent others from abusing their powers & endangering the welfare of others with abilities with their poor actions. Its so much deeper than it sounds, don't let the "stupidly plain over done" theme discourage you! The animation & artwork is great, visually pleasing from start to finish. All the character designs are great, no one looks off or stupid. The music is fantastic! The op & ed are soooo good you can listen to them over & over without tire & everything in the show matches great. My only complaints with the show are it feels very rushed from 1-5ish, but then everything past that seems well paced and something that happens in the last episode irritates me I can't get into it without spoilers but it just leaves you with a how?..that doesn't even make sense due to what you see in the episode before it. Its got quite a bit of a darker theme then it lets on so if your tastes are instability, powers(with realism to them which is pretty cool from your typical power genre), action & or a fan of the previous work "Angel Beats!" you'll definitely enjoy this as long as you stick with it past the beginning.

4.5/5 Why? It felt rushed for the first half, something happens in the end that irritates me because it doesn't line up with the previous episode. But the story is pretty solid & much deeper than you'd ever guess from the first half, the animation & artwork are awesome and the music is majestic af. If you like a darker theme show you have to check this out, especially for fans of "Angel Beats"

This is a very good short series. The major problem with Charlotte is the first half. It was very dull despite the interesting main protagonists. The second half was saved by a visionary plot twist that was well worked upon to its full potential. This totally changed the storyline into a banger. It becomes darker and unpredictable. If you can get past at least 5 or 6 episodes without dropping, you definitely won't regret it.
