B: The Beginning

B: The Beginning is very in-keeping with modern television. Excellent production quality, an intriguing title sequence (like in GoT or Westworld) and a score which is both quality and well suited to the genre. The story is engaging with an interesting blend of crime-drama, gore, and the supernatural. Why I imagine many people would draw comparisons to death note. You may do this if you wish, but you'll be disappointed, they are very different stories, and admittedly this is not as good as death note, but let's be clear, few stories are. There are a lot of questions this anime fails to answer or does so too late for the audience to really appreciate certain parts of the story. A second season exploring the lore would certainly be helpful, but for what it is, 'B: The Beginning' is an enjoyable and fun series. I urge you to give it a go.

Pretty interesting, smart and somehow extremely sad is an interrupted childhood tale, there is no rush enjoy the ride.

If you liked Death Note, although not as great, this anime has some interesting twists and supernatural points to it that will entertain you. Some small plot holes, but overall very well put together, you can tell they had a very decent budget set aside for this as opposed to some of the recently released anime in Japan in general. Conclusion: great way to pass time and definitely a must watch for anime lovers!

Alright so, I made an account just to review this since I saw the hate it was getting. Ignore all of the noise, sit down and watch this amazing series.

B: The Beggining took me by surprise, I saw Netflix had released a new anime and since Devilman was a nice surprise I decided to watch it. And oh boy I am so glad I did, B is carefully crafted and feels more like an actual series than an anime at times, sure, the over the top fight sequences with cheesy anime music are there but the direction is certainly something new.

I don´t want to say anything else than go watch this now, anime fan or not you might REALLY enjoy this.

B: The Beginning is another good Netflix original anime series next to Devilman Crybaby and a warm return of the mature crime genre that seem to be very underappreciated in today anime scene when now it all about what kind of creature or race the main character will turn into in another world or who is the best girl/boy of the season. I think this anime got a great potential to be a long running series and with the the after credit of episode 12 a second season may not be so far away in the future but as much as I enjoyed the story and it top notch animation I still think the plotline about "Adam and Eva" super cliché and it will be much more interesting if the director and the writer decided to focus solely on Keith and dedicate a whole season on his past live cause he is the soul of this anime not those edgy wannabe Jesus kids
