B THE BEGINNING ANIME REVIEW


 

B THE BEGINNING ANIME REVIEW
-KATSUYA ISHIDA


OVERALL: 9.6

PLOT: 9/10

I'm searching for a series with an initial of letter B when my eye caught this one. At first, I'm quite unsure if I want to watch it since the protagonist guy looks weird. But at the same time, it also looks cool. Episode 1 give me the creeps. Like woah, I really didn't expect that. There's the same atmosphere of Zankyou no Terror on this one. The kind of genre I've been searching for. The story will keep you going. The mysteries that will make you press the next episode. The questions left unanswered up until the ending. Well, the place where one of the protagonist came from is quite common. It's kind of the escape on how unbelievable characters are made. But on the whole, it's exciting, really. This series conveyed how twisted mind of human works. How it can manipulate someone's thinking. How it can lead to something inhumane. 

CHARACTERS: 10/10

I love the craziness of the characters. Insanity is something a normal human cannot understand. It's something human think is inhumane. It's a sin, a grave mistake, but that's why the story keeps going. It's the level of their foolishness to do something they want to. The characters conflicting beliefs made them stand on each others' way. Their remorse in the past which pushes them to step forward is something a human is very known of. 

SOUND AND ANIMATION: 9/10

I don't really like the animation at first since the protagonist is something like a weird old guy. But along the way, the characters are definitely good looking. Apart from the fact that the characters are way too cool, by cool I mean really really cool, their expression is also not to be discarded. It flawlessly show the expression the characters needed to portray. The excitement, the agony, the hesitation, the disagreement of things will also reflect on their faces. There's really no opening song but the ending one seems too heavy. It feels as if someone is drowning and no one can save him coz he don't want to be saved. It's depressing. 

ENJOYMENT: 10/10

Since the first episode, I knew I'll really enjoy this series. 12 episodes are really short if you are having fun watching it. Every scenarios keep my eyes hungry for more. It's not everyday that I can see an anime like this one. A perfect mix of psychology, gore, mystery. I think it's also an action and supernatural one. 

ENDING: 10/10

Is dying means losing? Is living means winning? The ending is such an intense one. Watching the protagonist do things that against his will, that you know is wrong but still he do it. In the end, it's not the question of living and dying. It's more than that. It's standing on your ground, etching your beliefs to someone else's mind. It's a good ending and there's more to come. I just hope I won't wait too long.

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI When you thought that the story ends after the Winter Cup Tournament, this movie turns out to be the final phase of the story. Well, basketball does not end in one's country. After winning the game, there is no doubt that another player, much more talented, much more better, will go your way. During the movie, American Basketball Team, famous in the field of Basketball visited Japan. A point where all of the members of the Generations of Miracles, along with Kuroko and Kagami, will have to fight them comes. It is a very interesting and exciting movie since it will be the first time showing how they play as a real team. How they realize that there are players who can match up on their level, who can take them head on, that will trigger them to do more than what they are doing. And to depend on their teammates because basketball is a five player game and not one. Well, Kuroko did made them realize that fact. What I find k...

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI 1. Movie 1 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Kage to Hikari 2. Movie 2 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Namida no Saki e 3. Movie 3 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Tobira no Mukou Movie one, two, and three is a summarize version of Season one, two, and three. Though unlike the Season one series where it tackles first the plays Seirin made in order to participate in the Winter Cup and Season 2 moving on to the tournament itself, the Movies focuses on the Winter Cup alone and show only a bit of introduction from the Season one series. The movies consist of the highlights and the outplays Team Seirin did in order to defeat every team with a Generation of Miracles member. It is a waste not to watch them but I decided not to. Not because it will be a waste of time but I know that watching it will make my memory jumble. Since I've watched each episodes of all three seasons, I already know how the story goes. But apart from that fact, every bit of extras, no...
