Re: Zero, Starting Life in Another World

This is a show I can't help but love and hate at the same time. The plot is really interesting and original, and some episodes are absolutely incredible, like S1E15. It's a brutal story of death and despair where a useless protagonist is forced to learn from his mistakes over and over in the most gruesome ways, and that's his only "superpower" to overcome all odds. That makes the protagonist a very relatable and likable one, undoubtedly one of the best character developments I've ever watched in anime (and I've watched a lot).

On the other hand I often found other characters to be incredibly annoying (I'm looking at you Ram); the plot often goes on weird tangents that make little sense and contradict or derail the main plot; you are often lead to believe every single character is conspiring against the protagonist for some mysterious reason.

Overall a great show, highly recommended; but expect an excess of pretentious characters with bad attitudes and overpowered girls in maid outfits.

Story line So good. I am waiting S3 now. The best anime❤

It's got everything you could possibly want from an anime. It has magic, action, alot of comedy, romance and at times its really dark. There's something in it for everyone in this anime and its just a really good show. I would recommend it to anyone.

This show is - amazing.

Go watch this NOW.

NOW.

I'M NOT KIDDING.

Anyways...

Re zero is a 2016 anime series about a teenage boy Subaru transported to a magical world. He then met a half elf half girl Emilia. Then they go on a journey to find Emilia's stolen stuff. But, they then got murdered. Subaru then transported back to where he first entered this world. A 25 episode magical emotional adventure begins.

Don't fooled by this boring premise because this anime has SERIOUSLY GOOD WRITING. Everything in this anime evolves from meh, to omfg. I can't say anymore because it will becomes a spoiler, and so I just wanna advise you all dive into this series with an open mind.

The artwork and the sounds are also very great, although I won't say it's amazing. If you look closely to some of the frames, you might spot some quality down tier. But then they hide it very well so eh? Who cares.

Overall I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you guys to check it out. And so, yeah, do it. You'll be amazed.

This anime is set in a medieval fantasy world like that of a videogame (think Skyrim or an mmo) and has a certain element to it which is key to Steins;Gate. It's also made by the same studio White Fox, this is a good anime studio.

The series is about a layabout called Subaru which finds himself in this other world and like the film Butterfly Effect, is trying to get the best outcome, whilst also learning more about the world and getting further tangled in it and it's inhabitants affairs. The show has some humorous moments and the character's are likeable (the horrible or antagonistic character's are perfectly unlikeable or hateable). The storyline is interesting and keeps me wanting to know what will happen next, with cliffhangers set at good moments. And the show for it's lighter or goofy moments, also manages to be extremely dark and violent, which is an interesting balance. It's a balance the series or manga (this is condensed from) manages to get right. Some of the written humour or dialog isn't perfect, but for the most part it is good and the english dubbing has talented VA's.

Overall I'd recommend this, it's a quite good show, one that will quickly pull you in if you liked Steins;Gate (despite it's much more fantastical setting and anime-esque protagonist).
