Its a greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat Anime. Not just: nice, i like it.
Its really great. Its really playing with our expetations sometimes scissor just is beating people up(not very common) or it looks so but someone unexpected happens that is hilarious and everyone happy. The Story is somtimes very dark but only do make it hilarious in the next 2 minutes. I laughed very much one of the best Netflix Original Anime ever made and I hope a third Season will come

This show has some of the best action and humor in an anime Netflix Show, hands down recommend this.
I will be honest, I saw the trailer for this on Netflix and added it to my list because it looked interesting and goofy enough to waste at least 15 minutes on an episode, without giving it much thought. It stayed in my list for a couple of months until I finally got around to it. And I'm really happy I did.
At first i went into it more as background noise, it wouldn't be the first show that i had in the background, just so the room isn't silent while I'm doing something else. Initially had it set on english, so I didn't have to pay much attention to the screen, while still hearing what's going on. But in the middle of the 3rd episode I realised that I was actually paying more attention to the show than I initially wanted to, and the story started to suck me in.
The characters show up one by one, not crowding the episode, and they each get an explanation on who they are and why they do what they do but not necessarily from the start (you will get some heartwarming backstory on a few of the characters in the OVAs and episodes in season 2). The show is mainly a comical one, with splapstick gags employed throughout each episode, but with a dramatic tone that makes itself felt especially in the backstory episodes or in the main storyline.
Overall, the show is great, with very good character building, even if the style of animation might be off-putting for some.

I absolutely adored this series. I was blown away by hand drawn animations in this day and age. The characters were so movable and had so much life. The team even added a swaggle in one episode to brag about their animating skills. It's also stylistic so it'll age very well.
On top of that, the humor was original. It also had its serious moments, which were dramatic as well. The extremities of the situation and the centering of the scenes really brought out how important some parts were.
I honestly did not expect to see a work of art like this in the form of an adult animation. It's so unique!
