    This drive felt short to achieve the high road

    Akudama Drive caught my attention due to it's vivid animation and the cyberpunk setting with some great music. An original anime with 12 episodes seemed interesting.

    The plot was decent, and was executed properly in the first 7-8 episodes. However, around 10th episode, the momentum shifted gears out of nowhere and the story was super rushed. The 2 characters, Swindler and Doctor were the most annoying ones with no development whatsoever.

    Although the animation was superb by Studio Peirrot, the story felt short towards the latter episodes and clocking the climax within 12 episodes resulted in a bit of disappointment. I would give high marks for the animation and the funky music throughout the anime, however the story was decent with unsatisfactory execution.

    Pros : Amazing animation by Studio Peirrot Cyberpunk setting and the music used was good

    Cons : The climax felt short of maintaining the momentum, which was built in first 8 episodes Rushed ending with no strong development of couple of lead characters There was too much chaos in the last 2 episodes which didn't felt connecting with the main storyline.

    My Rating : 6/10.

    Gorgeous art and direction

    I love this show. The characters are unique and the story draws you in. It is full of action and the plot is really good too. I can't wait to see how it ends.

    It definitely doesn't deserve all the hype.

    I binge watched it.

    Like the first Suicide Squad It ended up being just an average 1 viewing show. It started off really good but then turned into a netflixer.

    What kind of ending was that? "That's your clue".

    A 5 just an average 5.

    One of the best series in 2020

    To keep it short this one is absolutely worth watching.Give it a try you won't regret it.

    It's made by kodaka writer of the Danganronpa games

    It's pretty promising and it's going to get better
