JUNI TAISEN ANIME REVIEW

 


JUNI TAISEN ANIME REVIEW
-NISIO ISIN
(FEBRUARY 05 2018)


OVERALL: 6.8

PLOT: 5/10

Different types of action series are available out there who can take our interests. It can be horoscope, sins, great heroes, mythology and zodiac signs. This one revolves around Chinese zodiac participants who are willing to fight and kill each other for just one wish. The first episode is too exciting, too interesting, you'll never expected that the whole series will be too predictable. Yes, the action on this one is kind of great but still it lacks on it. There are multiple loopholes and things that you'll find disturbing after watching it. First, why there is a war against zodiacs every twelve years? What happened that time that resulted on this kind of tournament? Second, where is the back story of rabbit? I know that he is a psycho. One who you can't speak normally. But why is he like that? Why did he decide to turn himself into a corpse? He is fighting for his wish to be friends with all of people. Not to kill himself and turn into a monster. Third, the series became too a loop of story and death. Whoever is reminiscing his past will die. So you will really know who's going to survive. Fourth, who are the people betting on them?  Who's the guy in hat? Is he God? And last one, the rat give off a really mysterious aura. Well, he did have a unique skill. But I expected more on him which I shouldn't have. 

CHARACTER: 8/10

They all have a different principle in life. Something they hold onto to keep on living. Something in their past which makes them the person they are in the competition. Truth to be told, the characters are created humanely. They have their bad and good side. They have their strength and weakness. Though I ended up not liking the series, the characters are on different criteria. For me, the characters are great. But still, I expected more in rats' character. 

ANIMATION AND SOUND: 9/10

The animation is great. What will you expect in a new release series, right? The way the things around them breaks and how the series show the expression on the characters face is quite amazing. Most of the time, it is very detailed. The dubbing is also fine.  As well as the opening and ending songs. 

ENJOYMENT: 7/10

While I enjoy the action brought by this series. It became also predictable which resulted in making it boring. Yes, the action scenes are good, no doubt about that. But overall, the series just take turns from story to death. The most interesting character rabbit is the only one who made me decide to finish the series, I think. 

ENDING: 5/10

The ending is a mess for me. They leave a lot of questions. They leave a lot of unexplainable things in the series. Additionally, the series ended up with a depressing person who has no will to live. No dreams, No wish. Though he did seem happy in the end, I still expected more on him.

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...
