It gives you a spectacularly detailed insight into their thoughts and feelings, all while following an intense storyline. This has been the way anime have defined the psychology genre for years.īut, as always, along comes a player that changes the way the game is played.Īoi Bungaku Series thrusts you into the shoes of the protagonists and synchronizes their brain to yours. All these anime looked at psychology as the mindset of a murderer or the troubled past of the protagonist, and there were also shows like Death Note, which focused on the psychological warfare of two geniuses. This anime made me so frustrated some times, but it has its funny, heartwarming, or well done moments, so I'm still giving it a score as high as a 6.For a long time now, the psychology genre has been dominated by the likes of Elfen Lied, Higurashi, Monster and Requiem for a Phantom. My least favorite part of the series by far was the first three episodes of the special, because nothing good happens, Inori is just feeling depressed and really mean and isnt telling anyone why (and it turns out to be a really stupid reason), but at least we get the ending that we deserve after sitting through this crap. You get to see a bunch of people shouting at each other and being depressed for 23 minutes straight! Doesn't that sound like a fun escape from reality? Yay! I'm someone who can appreciate drama if it's done right (violet evergarden is one of two 10/10 anime out of the around one hundred I've seen) but I just hate it when the drama makes it so the characters can't interact or so that they hate each other.
However, imagine you only have time for one episode of anime after a long day of work, and you are in the middle of kokoro connect. Everyone kept being stupid and mean, and no one liked anyone else for like half the series! I can see why people liked this show, because the parts that are done well are really good and the parts where no one hates each other are actually pretty fun and interesting getting to see the characters react to stuff. Like, what THE HECK was up with Iori in the last 4 episodes? It was a big pity party where Iori was being self centered and stupid, and I ended up hating her character.
However, you will only really like this show if you like people being sad, depressed, angry, and stupid. The ending is also the best thing that could have happened too, and I liked it (I'll just say one thing: inaba is best girl). The characters feel really deep and real, and the way they interact is mostly believable and fun. The music was actually one of the better parts of this show, the ost is really good even if the op and ed are just ok. The art in this show is good, nothing amazing, but definitely slightly above average. First of all: inaba is definitely best girl, without a doubt. I am writing this review for both the main show and the 4 extra episodes that actually conclude this show at the end.
