Stranger Case

This anime is quite good. At first I thought it would be boring to watch. But a friend of mine insisted on to watch it. So,I gave it a go and I found it enjoyable. Now a second season is coming soon. Really forward to watch.

The first few episodes of Season 1 introduce you nicely to the characters and their backstory with a nice blend of action and exposition. The main female lead has a positive quirky personality juxtaposed by the main male leads very serious and blank no nonsense one. Their "love" story has some humorous moments as well as some poignant ones.

However, those positives are mixed into a show that, almost as soon as the introductions are complete. Dives headfirst into simply being the main characters plus side character(s) dialoguing endlessly about how to solve or understand a particular mystery.

The first instance of this "Wall of Text" approach is at the lake with the water god. This concept is somewhat interesting, yet despite it's first instance still feels like it's dragging it's feet. It's main benefit over the rest of the season being that it is feels better paced than the next main plot of the Steel Lady. This is where you run face first into entire episodes of nothing but people talking together in a room about hypotheticals and uninteresting solutions. This continues on for several episodes in a row with barely anything else in-between and for only a brief time. At that point it becomes very difficult to continue to care about the story as it becomes repetitive and you'll care less due to the intentionally misleading brainstorms of the main female lead.

I suppose if supernatural mystery is your preferred genre then this show might be right up your alley. I found it far far too dull and exhausting to finish the second seasons. However, I will say Episodes 2,3, and 4 of season 2 where by far my favorite of the entire series.

Kyokou Suiri was extremely mediocre. The plot sounded interesting and I thought the Japanese folk lore would take a larger portion of plot, but the show tended to drag on one malicious yokai in something that should have been 1 or 2 episodes but ended up being 9. The music wasn't great either and I have nothing to say about the visuals. The personalities are one of the worst parts as there is very little depth and I feel as if an adjective was just given to each character as a personality. The character design was quite good on the main character and I wish there was more uniqueness to the other characters who came across as plain. Despite these drawbacks none of them were bad enough to lead to me not following through. Even though I was very critical of it, the experience was enjoyable enough for me to follow through. Unless you are interested in ghosts, yokai, etc. and can sit through a lot of dialogue this probably isn't the anime for you.

In mystery novels, people typically employ every piece of information and reasoning at their disposal to uncover the truth. Rather, Kyokou Suiri fabricates a lie using all available data and reasoning.

Kurou Sakuragawa and Kotoko Iwanaga are the two main characters in the narrative. One of them is a "goddess of wisdom" for the youkai that inhabit the planet, and the other is an apparently ordinary guy who is actually something else entirely. Together, Kotoko and Kurou form a group and work to address the fears and concerns of the nearby youkai. You could also say that Kotoko clings to Kurou.

Three characters, Kotoko, Kurou, and Saki, engage with a blend of humor and paranormal themes in this anime. Kurou is simple but strong, but Kotoko is cruel and hilarious. Saki, who was formerly Kurou's ex, is brave, witty, and gorgeous. This season, there is a lot of anticipation for the show because it presents a novel take on Mystery. The manga gives greater depth and solutions for readers who are not interested in animation.

I think i just didn't like story style of what this show gave to me. i already read the synopsis and i expecting something good. like action, comedy. the comedy was good and the action was nicely animated. but, the comedy is rarely appeared on this show and action of the main character (Kuro Sakuragawa) was so lame. like come on man he can do it better he is already hundred years of living and still dont know how to fight. the girl officer (Saki Yumihara) is not like police officer at all, he is too coward for anything, how she was ended up being police officer if she is too coward and not brave. that character is so annoys me. 70% of this show is full of talking and that thing is made me bored.
