Japan Sinks: 2020

Look like 2012 version anime, but in the middle of this anime has a lot of people who dead for bad reasons

I think for the most part, we can agree that the story was great. It showed the horrors of natural disasters and how easy it was for people to die. What's also interesting is that unlike many doomsday movies, the humans here tend to help each other (safe for some individuals and later nazis). It gives a fresh new perspective, in a realistic manner to humanity when under a threat of being wiped out. Enough for the story now it is time to address the graphics and animation. Japan Sinks 2020 cannot be done without breathtaking landscapes and that's just the problem. The graphics look lazy with characters looking deformed sometimes. They also seem to not be able to draw up perspectives. The awkward sudden change to 3D (which they did horribly). Landscapes aren't amazing, let alone great. It really feels like they skipped animation school because it looks choppy and has a bad flow (like those cigarette scenes). Sometimes it feels like it's straight out of a flash game from dailygames dot com. The characters were great and had solid personalities and the only complaint for this part is that the little kid Go likes to blurt out english phrases randomly and to me it was just damn annoying. All in all, i gave this a 6/10 not because i didn't appreciate the story, it was because they tried to make a beautiful anime but minus the good drawing techniques and smooth animation. The trailer really gets you tricked in this part (I genuinely thought it was Makoto Shinkai's work). Tl;dr : so much creativity, so little technique, Go is annoying.

"A very sad story, very touching, I really enjoyed it, short but always makes the audience curious, great start and great ending, and I hope this story never happened"

First episode is good, after that is just a downward journey. Story telling is bad, animation is excruciatingly terrible. One character dies at every episode, just for the sake of it, and others just get saved by miracle means. Completely waste of time, save yourself from the disappointment.

At the beginning I was like, ok, this is interesting and has a lot of potential, by the middle I thought what the heck is this turning into and by the end I was crying like a baby.

So overall there were bad moments but also really emotional ones and that's the most important for me personally, in the end, it made me feel something.
