Clevatess

It's been far to long since i've seen an anime that hooked me on the first episode.

The first episode starting off with a 45 min gripper that hooked my hearth.

The animation is a breath of fresh air. It throws you into a world where what you want to happen or think will happen is a mere wish.

The story wants to take you on a ride and pushing the boundaries is not a fear it has!

For those that are tired of anime not going all they way with the story, this might solve it.

The premise is good enough, but the story is poorly written. The dialog is atrocious, childish at times, which is weird considering the random fan service (not that it's very prevalent). I could honestly nitpick pretty hard on the writing but the half assed animation needs to be addressed. Some of it looks straight out of a 80s action cartoon. Its so out of place that its jarring when it happens. Then there's the voice acting. Clevatess is the only one to do a decent job. Everyone else phoned it in and put on their worst voice imaginable. I wish I could have the life back that this show took from me.

It's pretty hard for me to get into shows now a days because a lot of writing and plots are pretty meh. After watching the trailer I didn't think much of it, just thought it'd be a cool violent fantasy anime but I've been pretty stoked every time a new episode comes out. The action is pretty good, some fights could use a little more fleshing out, the plot is actually pretty interesting, characters are actually kinda unique and not just one dimensional. Even the villains aren't just evil to be evil, most of them feel like they have some kind of will driving what they do.

What I'm mostly enjoying is how good and bad isn't just black and white. There's a gray zone with our protagonists and antagonists.

Was initially shocked at the 8/10 rating when I looked up this show but the more I think about it, I think it is one of the better shows that'vd come out this year.

So far, seven episodes in, the series is just ok. The world and the characters are intriguing, and the story developments are decent.

However, it feels like nothing of importance is happening. There's not much for me to look forward for. I feel like the characters are just aimlessly wandering around.

To me, this is just another run-of-the-mill anime for teens.

This series really deviates from the current norm of a lot of anime series. It really doesn't follow any set guidelines that a lot of its other predecessors follow. I literally have no clue what will happen next, or where the series is going. And I am typically, yet annoyingly, accurate in my predictions at how stories will end. This one is kind of a hit.
