Guilty Crown

Where do I even start with this one? Let's start with the good things about this show. The animation is gorgeous. There are really some epic art bombs in this show that make you forget how bad the story is. The music is absolutely beautiful, and I have it about the sang music, not the standard epic fight music that was decent. The show starts with this beautiful song that makes you think your gonna watch something epic. And after the first episode that thought was gone. But I continued watching. After a few episodes, I came to notice that I didn't like a character in this show. Especially the main love interest for our main character. I absolutely hated her in the first half of the show. The second part is defiantly better, much slower paced and a story that's not as thrown at your face than the first half. And then the ending happened... The shortest, anti-climactic, stupidest ending ever. If it weren't for the animation and the music this show would have gotten a lot lower from me.

The anime looks beautiful and has some good fight scenes. However, trying to understand the plot (especially in the second halve) is near impossible.

Plot twist after plot twist. Everyone good is apparently evil and then good again.

Except for the guy that killed his sister's husband out of pure jealousy and then tries to destroy the world because of the same reason. And who or what is the Daath guy??

Overall a very watchable series, with an ending, if imperfect.

Pros: -Animation. (strong colors, characters, etc) -Music. (Fantastic score, opening and closing credits) -Initial plot. (Some Trope use, but the politics was a nice angle)

Cons: -Starts to loose it's way in season 2. -Tropes. -Ending Plot some really hate. -Very "short" Ending.

It Falls under a number of genre categories (Action, dystopia, political thriller, some mecha etc)

When i checked the rating after watching this i was shocked to see just 7.1, it really deserves more really really more, it has a fantastic screen play with more than a decent story line and an excellent character development, The quality of the animation is beautiful picture perfect you can say. I don't know why it is so underrated, probably the reason for this is the story line being bit too confusing in the initial stage, That's the only reason i can come up with. Initially you really won't understand what's happening, what and why are they attacking each other, which is a good side and which is not, Anyway moving forward things will start picking up and you will get proper clarity for all that has happened and what is happening, it may not give you any anxiety or a high level curiosity but still It is an interesting anime, The only suggestion i can give you is not to get frustrated with the initial episodes.

Deserves much more...before watching read the reviews but was really disapointed and after watching the anime i can say that it was worth it. Nice anime.
