From the beautiful well crafted opening with an amazing song to the story and the characters themselves - not to mention the out of this world aesthetic to the genre - Hell's Paradise is set to become something we didn't know that anime could be. We're only three episodes in and this anime continues to stun me. Brace yourselves, you're in for a hell of a ride. This is top of the tops, creme de la creme entertainment.

I'm speaking as someone who's never read the manga and just watched the anime - as this is how I went about every anime I've ever watched.

I thought that Naruto would have a monopoly on the ninja-genre but somehow Hell's Paradise is able to reframe that notion to all of us, Naruto fans, have in our minds, and keep it fresh and moving forward.

I'm hyping the hell out of this anime because that's the impression it left on me. And hey, I've just come out of rewatching all of Demon Slayer in anticipation of season, and somehow Hell's Paradise animation is able to entice my heart with even more emotion than the likes of Kimetsu no Yaiba.

We should all just be glad that we can sit down and revel on these anime's as we're currently living in the golden age of anime.

It's a great anime that won't let you go from the beginning.

Simply put, the protagonist has to find a fruit on an island to survive, but on the way he gets into trouble, because it's never as easy as it seems and that's why the anime is called "Hells Paradise". The first three episodes have a strong entry into the story. It's not just a story where you have a bad guy, but you have to find the bad guy first.

The exterior in the anime is also very nice. The main characters are introduced in detail.

I can only judge by the first six episodes, but I think the six episodes are enough to form an opinion.

In general, I can say that this is a great anime that you should not miss.

I ll make it clear from the start, Berserk fans are gonna love this one ! Well done, I was hooked from the start, great pacing, loveable "heroes", little bit clunky animation but overall, pure enjoyment.

Action is kinda interupted by flashbacks, but not in the measure to ruin the vibe of the show. I mentioned Berserk, in few instances, I felt that Berserk taste in certain scenes, especially with monsters design. It has those "hopeless moments" where you know trouble is inevitable and the end is near. Its been a while where the show reminded me that much of Kentaro Miura's masterpiece so I am maybe little biased but nevertheless, a warm recommendation to all anime lovers!

The storyline seems pretty simple at first. The MC is a killer with superhuman abilities and lacks remorse or empathy until he is forced to marry his chief's daughter and falls for her. The first 6 episodes or so are just okay. The fighting and animation is still really good so they're entertaining. However, the last half of the show the storyline really picks up and it gets more and more interesting every episode. The power system is really cool, the way the characters interact and build off each other is very natural and their relationship dynamics feel real. Some of the side characters' stories are REALLY good and in my opinion even better than the MC's story. I found myself very invested in them and wanting to learn more about their lives. Any character can die at any moment so the show keeps you on edge. The world building is amazing. I love the aesthetics of the island and the soundtrack is incredible. This show has so much potential and I think it can become bigger than demon slayer if people give it the attention it deserves. I came in not expecting much and now I can't wait for season 2.

Although I've only watched 9 episodes, I can easily say this is one of my favorite anime. The characters all have personalities that the voice actors do VERY well at. The intense action scenes are very entertaining. The animation is good. The art style is good. The story seems basic on the outside but is actually quite an interesting concept. Its like there isn't anything to hate on this anime. If you are a fan of anime, I'll say that this anime is one you should not skip. Besides that, the anime does have quite a bit of blood/gore so if that kind of stuff makes you uncomfortable, you might want to watch with caution.
