DRIFTERS ANIME REVIEW
-KOUTA HIRANO
(FEBRUARY 12 2018)
OVERALL: 8.8
PLOT: 9/10
It is a common thing to make a certain real-life persona a protagonist in a story. Someone known or popular which we can relate into. Though that is the norm, that is what we typically saw in a movie, a book or in an anime, this one takes not only one persona but a lot of it. Once they're on a verge of dying, that someone will put them in a certain world where they will become Drifters. Basically, they will become something who drift through time. You will come to see Oda Nobunaga, Hijikata, Shimazu and any other talking at the same time, breathing the same air. It is an interesting plot for me. Though I don't really know most of the drifters, I am amazed at this series. What more when I've knew all of them?
CHARACTERS: 9/10
All of them have different kind of craziness in themselves. They view life, death, war differently. They have their own principle which cannot be broken. They have their own strength which they fully excel. Everyone of them have a role only they can fulfill and that is what makes them important. That is what the series make thrilling. The funny side of them is also cute as it is too rare for a story which revolves around bloodshed and war.
ANIMATION AND SOUND: 8/10
The animation of this one is too rough for me. The emotion showing on every character is too powerful and it really is a unique one. At first, I am not sure if I will really like it since I'm not fond on the animation. But I guess, it is the one which attract the one who sees it. It is magnetizing and the action was also also well done. In line with the sound, well, I am really curious on the elven language. It's cute and classy. The voices of the characters is fine with me, the tone and stress of it is exactly how it is supposed to be. About the opening and the ending, I did not really like it but I think it is okay.
ENJOYMENT: 10/10
I really did not think that I will enjoy it. The way that the protagonists mind work is too irresistible that you will ask for more. I also love the action on it where the forces who they subjugate will turn into two once they slice them in half. It's sooo cool. It is also too amazing too see how a great leader and tactician overcome the numbers by using the mind. So yeah, I did enjoy watching this one.
ENDING: 8/10
The ending is too cliffhanger. I want a next season. I want more of it. But what would I expect in a good series? It is always the ending is just a beginning. They've only take one step forward and they have so much more to encounter and they have so much time to grow.
