For as simple a show as it is, Astra Lost in Space has made things very confusing for me over the summer. Part of me wants to say it overall doesn’t work, that it’s hamstrung by awkward construction and weird decisions that make things needlessly unstable. But another part of me feels a smile creeping across his face when I think back on the adventure I’ve shared with these crazy kids. It’s a show that works more in bits and pieces than as a cohesive whole, with no shortage of moments that really spoke to me and left a positive impression that nevertheless all float around in a soup of odd production choices and weak shortcuts. It’s a flawed animal to be sure. But you know what? Something about the stuff this show does right stuck with me so deeply that I find myself wanting to overlook those flaws and appreciate it all the same. If nothing else, that’s a sign that Astra must have been doing something right. The story is set in the near future of 2063, where humanity has advanced to a relatively utopian state of progress and now regularly explores the farthest reaches of space. Our protagonists are a motley crew of anime archetypes who all come together for space camp, some with previous connections, most meeting for the first time. Once they arrive, though, things take an unexpected turn and they find themselves stranded lightyears from home, with no means of communication, and a dawning realization that someone among them might want them dead for unknown reasons. All they have is a beaten-down, abandoned spaceship they miraculously managed to restore to basic working order, a rudimentary knowledge of how to survive interstellar dangers, and each other. And with nothing but those tools, they have to come together and find a way to get back home, keep each other alive, and find out just who- or what- decided the universe would be better off without them. At it’s core, it’s a very shonen take on Lord of the Flies in space, as our ragtag gang hops from planet to planet, runs into dangers both internal and external, learns valuable lessons about friendship and teamwork, and comes to terms with their troubled pasts as they slowly open up to each other. If that sounds like your cup of tea, then you don’t need to read the rest of this review, because Astra Lost in Space delivers exactly what you’d expect from that setup, and maybe even a little more. What keeps things running smoothly, despite some glaring issues that I’ll talk about in a bit, is a real beating sincerity at the heart of this thing. Friendship-oriented shonen adventures are a dime a dozen, but there’s a humanity to Astra’s characters and core narrative that really shines through. None of the characters are just the archetype they embody; the bossy brat is hiding a lot of pain and abandonment issues, the edgy loner is capable of being an outright goof, the most put-together among the cast are often the ones just barely holding it together, and the vocal performers all do astonishing work in bringing these nuances to life. Even from the moment we first meet them, their performances alone are enough to get us invested in them, eager to uncover their internal lives and understand what drives them. That’s a deceptively hard trick to pull off; it’s not easy to straddle the line between performing as a recognizable trope and finding something honest and unique inside that trope. But all of Astra’s cast walks that tightrope perhaps better than I’ve ever seen. Where problems start creeping in is the unevenness of the narrative and its presentation. This is all fairly abstract stuff that’s hard to pin down, but suffice to say, Astra’s overall production doesn’t do it any favors. The animation is appealing to look at, but usually fairly stuff and limited. Moment-to-moment pacing can feel awkward and stretched out at points, likely a result of adapting the manga too literally and not adjusting for the demands of animation. There’s also a bizarre choice to present the vast majority of scenes in a letterbox aspect ratio, only switching back to full screen at certain moments for unclear reasons. If the idea was to make the show feel more cinematic, it fails miserably, only serving to make scenes feel more claustrophobic and limited than they should. Some jokes come too slow on their punchlines to land, some emotional beats come by a little too fast, and these little distractions pile up enough to keep me at arms’ length from a story I otherwise really want to enjoy fully. And these issues all exacerbate certain awkward points in the narrative; there’s a particular moment where the shy, closed-off girl is finally making her big, show-stopping “embracing myself” moment, but it ends up feeling more like a musical montage than a genuine culmination to a character arc. None of this ever really tips over to aggravation, but it always felt like there was a better story underneath this awkwardness that I could’ve been watching instead. And yet, despite those issues, the sincerity at the heart of this show still shines through. Overall, it’s a lopsided framework, but there are still so many ideas and moments that I really enjoyed. I love the easy camaraderie between the cast and how comfortable these characters all feel in their own skin. I love it’s general good-natured spirit, and how confidently it digs into the drama of the show’s darker moments. And without spoiling anything, the mysteries of the plot ending up having answers that genuinely managed to surprise me, going in directions I never expected but always being satisfying to watch unfold. I can’t count the number of times I was struck by a particular plot turn or character beat that made me gasp in delight with the realization that this show would even go there. For as archetypical as it is in broad strokes, the way this story and cast develop is often anything but. Annoying tropes are mostly avoided, surprise turns catch you off guard, and everyone and everything feels a lot richer and a lot more fleshed out than your typical mindless fare. There’s a particular mid-season reveal relating to a certain character’s true nature that left me completely gobsmacked in the best way; how was any shonen brave enough to make THIS a part of their story? I don’t know, but I’m certainly grateful to Astra for taking that leap. And that’s the word I keep coming back to with Astra Lost in Space: grateful. For all its faults, for all its inconsistencies, the story and ideas at its score are the kind of emotionally honest, kind-hearted spirit that got me into anime in the first place. Like I said above, it’s a show that works more in bits and pieces than as a whole but those bits and pieces are so damn inspiring that it makes it worth the journey regardless. I can’t say it was a particularly lasting experience, and I’m frustrated that it wasn’t allowed to be better than it was, but this space survival shonen is an adventure I don’t regret going on.

I can say without a doubt this anime was a waste of time. Ignoring how in the very first episode, they treat the viewer like a toddler with how even the most mundane things are pointed out, I'll admit the hook was at the very least interesting. However, I can't say the same about the plot & characters. This anime, much like others, is a victim of "tell not show." They practically tell you everything. There are countless scenes which exist solely to be exposition, in return, this made the "twists" heavily predictable. It got to a point where the antagonists quite literally sat around a roundtable, and directly told the audience their plan. It felt like a ""We are the evil antagonists and here's our evil scheme"" moment. Literally zero room for exploration nor interpretation. As for the characters, they're all walking cliches. There's the emo, the smart one, the shy one, the dumb one, etc. Almost every character has a sob story, always more pathetic and flat than the last. Serious moments are far and few between, and are always met afterwards with some unfunnily unwarranted quip, which doesn't match the tone whatsoever. This makes it feel like said "serious moments" hold very little weight. I understand this is a comedy anime, comedy is subjective, but the "comedic" scenes more often than not ruin the already non-existent stakes. One moment the characters are hit with a "game over"-esque dilemma, the next they're cracking jokes like their lives weren't just in jeopardy. The anime struggles to take itself seriously, yet expects you to. Kanata no Astra does a HORRIBLE job attempting to balance the comedy and drama. The characters are one note, and are forgiven immediately each and every time. In terms of the visuals, the animation is nothing to write home about; the art is quite pleasing to look at, it was the only aspect stopping me from dropping Kanata no Astra altogether. Overall, calling this mediocre would be an understatement; if you value your time, don't bother.

“Astra Lost in Space” is what happens when You take a movie from 1998 and turn it into an anime… sort of. In 1998 “Lost in Space” directed by Stephen Hopkins was released. It was a story about a family that, thanks to a sabotage, was lost in deep space. Their goal was to get back to earth. Along the way they visit planets, conquer adversities and grow closer as a family. Now take that premise, turn the family into teenagers (because of course, it’s anime) on a school trip and You basically know what to expect. Now this isn’t a 1:1 comparison. The anime actually has some twists and turns that were… a mixed bag to be fair. “Astra lost in space” follows the adventures of 9 teenagers after they become victims of a mysterious phenomenon that sends them into space and forces them to use an abandoned spaceship to get home. Not willing to trust each other at first, they become closer as they visit new planets, fight alien fauna and flora, and become aware of a secret about themselves and the world they come from that could change the course of history. Despite having 9 characters for most of the show, they are not equally written and some of them get the short straw when it comes to quality. Kanata, Ulgar and Charce are the highlights of the show when it comes to character writing. Kanata because he’s basically the vessel for the viewer. It is through his perspective we experience most of the show and from the very beginning he establishes himself as motivated and protective towards his companions. Ulgar has a pretty nice arc during which he changes from an asshole who gives off the vibe that he would kill You in Your sleep to someone who is trusted to handle the most dangerous weapon that the crew possess. Charce in the beginning is an annoying, intelligent, pretty boy, but towards the end all his secrets are revealed and is given a totally new light to shine. Zack and Aries are ok. They have their roles and their interactions with the rest of the crew are pretty entertaining. The problem with them is that they are flat. They do have a little growth but all in all it’s an example of “the more things change, the more they stay the same” regularity. The rest of the crew, despite being interesting in theory, are done dirty. You could easily delete Quitterie, Funicia, Yunhua and Luca and the show could still work. Their only role is to act as catalysts for the growth of others. Especially Luca who becomes the key to Ulgar's change. They do have episodes when they can shine but it’s not even full episodes, it’s just a few scenes and that’s it. Talking about wasted potential. The plot itself is pretty interesting… up to a point. Let me explain. The first 3/4 of the show is pretty interesting. A type of “planet of the week” formula. They find a new planet, they explore it, have an adventure, resupply and go on their merry way. Repetitive? Yes. Boring? No. Not really. The planets they visit and the adventures and struggles they encounter on them are distinct enough to keep You invested in the plot. That’s when the show is at its best. When the crew explores new worlds and come together to conquer adversities. If the whole show would be like that I would not complain much. Unfortunately in the last 1/4 of the show they throw in a twist. A pretty big one. One that could, in theory, elevate the show. But it doesn’t. Don’t get me wrong, the idea itself is pretty ok. The problem is that the show has only 12 episodes and adding that kind of twist toward the end kills the pacing by rushing a lot of elements. They tried to pack too much new info in very few episodes. The whole thing feels rushed. The dialogs that were simple but solid become needlessly complicated and pretty much giant info dumps. Given another 12, hell even 6, episodes more the story would have more time to breathe and sink in more naturally. The mystery that was set up in episode 2 is resolved by an ass pull. I know the show relies heavily on coincidence (without it the plot wouldn’t even happen after all) and plot armour but that was on the level of Goku pulling out a new attack from his ass mid fight. I guess the mystery itself was handled in a lacklustre way by not giving any clues to solve it, so the writer probably wrote himself into a corner and that was the only way they knew how to resolve it. Bad writing nonetheless. Despite the flaws with the character writing and plot the show is really enjoyable. Seriously, with all the incompetent writing this show has no business being this hooking. I watched the whole show without even noticing the flow of time. Yes, most of it is because the banter is pretty good and the initial premise is thought out. If it wasn’t for the last few episodes the show would probably become one of my favourites. The twist part… yeah… it kills it a bit for me. All in all I think this show deserves a shot. If You can forgive plot holes and over reliance on deus ex machinas You can have a blast with it.

This is my first review. I had a lot of feelings about this anime overall. At the beginning of the anime, I was not really convinced if it was worth the watch. The plot seemed quite promising, but the characters were really annoying and were ruining my overall experience. However, I did not want to give up and stuck until the end. ***CONTAINS SPOILERS*** Story: 9/10 The story was very original, complex, and twisted. Straight from the beginning, I loved the idea that a group of teenagers was stranded in the middle of space, basically isolated. Therefore, they band together and try to survive and successfully return home. Each episode shows the adventures and challenges the characters need to overcome as they explore different planets. In the meantime, revealing fragments of the truth behind the real reason why the characters were stranded in space. I was impressed by how the characters were actually clones and the originals planned their murders so they can cover all the evidence due to the law of illegal cloning. It was a very dark twist that even I did not expect but that was just the start. When the characters’ spaceship was broken and were stuck in one of the planets, they found an old ship that has been abandoned (I do not know for how many decades). Inside that ship, they found a woman in a hibernation. This woman’s presence enhanced the plot as it was revealed that the planet that the characters were trying to go back to was Astra and not Earth, a different planet but very similar to Earth. In addition, they had no idea about the planet Earth’s existence and its history. Furthermore, they turned time back by 100 years so they can cover all the data from Earth, so it was not 2063 but 2163. The planet that they were placed in originally was Earth itself without realizing it. It was mind-blowing. However, I was a bit disappointed as there were 5 volumes and 12 episodes. It looked very short and I believe that there is a lot of potential. I believe that the story should go deeper into the reason why the government was trying to hide the history of Earth. In other words, I wanted more development on corruption and to show that the world they believed was a utopia was actually a dystopia. A fabricated world. In addition, I wanted more action with the originals. I wanted more conflict like even when the teenagers have returned home, they still tried to find ways to kill them. There were still trying to silence them. Characters: 4/10 I was actually very disappointed by the characters to the point that I was getting frustrated. As I was watching the anime, I started to get used to some of them, but it was still not enough to make me actually care about them. I did not care if they all died in the end. All the characters had very shallow or stereotypical characteristics, which really annoyed me. For example, we have the stereotypical attractive and athletic boy who wants to be the captain so he will be there to save the day. Then, we have the genius guy with the glasses who knows somehow everything about riding a spaceship when it was probably his first time being in space. I do not where he got that experience but my god that is some talent I must say. Next, is the anti-social girl and guy who have very traumatizing pasts, so they act like jerks and horrible or useless, causing problems for the team. Finally, this must be the worst example ever. The girls have no personality at all. It was very shallow and bland. All they did was shouting, screaming, crying, being disrespectful towards the other members, and talking about irrelevant stuff when they are exposed to a life-threatening situation. Also, they had no ambitions whatsoever. As for the guys, they were a little bit more interesting because they were actually doing something. They were engaged in different activities, despite being extremely dangerous, unlike the girls who only criticizing what they were doing. Art and Animation: 8/10 I enjoyed the art, but it was not the best. I like the different vibrant colors, giving me the vibe that they are in an unfamiliar, different, and futuristic setting. Also, I loved how photographic they looked. I think it was a good technique making it very mysterious and intense to a certain extent. Sound: 4/10 To be honest there was nothing special about the sound. It was boring and very generic. It was so generic that I forgot that there was any opening theme. Also, the lack of sound lost some of the suspense that I believe would be quite good. Enjoyment: 7/10 There was definitely some potential with this anime, but the characters were not very significant. They did not stand out. There was no realism between their interactions with one another. It was fake and confusing. Also, I wanted more development because I believe that the ending was too rushed, trying to glue everything all together within the time duration. There were things that were not developed, and I was very disappointed. Overall: 7/10 It was not the best anime but it is worth a shot.

I'll try to keep this short. Kanata No Astra is an awesome anime. The anime really hooked you in from the start, and didn't disappoint in my opinion. The intro is really good, and I usually didn't even skip it. The plot was really good, basically Among Us, the anime. but I really liked it. They were really creative with the characters as well. And don't even get me started on the ending. They totally NAILED the ending. The 48 minute long ending episode had all that you could ask for. And I was very satisfied with how the story ended. This anime is perfect to binge watch. And if you're looking for a good 12 episode anime, Kanata No Astra is a safe bet. Overall rating: 9/10

Okay, thanks to fact that some moderators didnt like the last review and they delete it (rude), i was forced to write it again, this time with little bit more details and less spoilers, we dont want to upset our dear moderators again:), however if you watch the series and you want to write what you think about it even if contains the spoilers, you should. After all i get more spoilers from other parts for every series and yet i watch it, but anyways Astra Lost in Space. This is one of series that was in my wishlist since it was first published, but i never actually get manga, and after hearing there will be a anime, i decide to wait. Story: The basic premise, where you have bunch of kids get lost on their camp trip was well boring as hell but it was in space so i guess, it may be interesting, and it did. While story is slow and do not give to much details during first few episodes, where you have more questions then answers, plot moved with each episode, revealing more and more, by the 11-12 epsidoes everything finally have sense. There is few clues during the series which should give you clues whats going on. I wont enter to deeply into story, since it would contain spoilers. Art: Beautiful and well done. I definitly can say that and i believe that is all needed. It is visually nice, Lerche studio really did great job with this series. Sound: Quite good, and keep you on edge. thats all i could say. Characters: Unique and well created, they are not animated in way that all look like eggs, like in some anime series, they are all unique in apperanace and behavior. Enjoyment and overall: To say i didn't enjoy this series would be lie, i did, it keep me on from first to last episode since it is good, not near good as some other series like Black Lagoon, One Piece... but in its own way very good. I like it, and i recommend it, it is not waste of time. After all its only 12 episodes. Definitly try and enjoy it. Taking that story is well made and will go in way you don't expect (if you didnt read manga, and you are new to it). I hope to see season 2, however taking that anime covers all 5 of volumes somehow i doubt. Nevertheless it is good series.

This anime is by far one of the best anime with good characters,peak story,decent animation with so many plot twists. I have watched around 400 animes. By far this is one of the best anime with so many unexpected plots twists and turns. I am sad by how this anime ended very quickly. While other sh*t shows out there get season 5. This anime is very short and enjoyable.Every episode in this anime ends with a plot twist (like a cliffhanger). Trust me watch this anime.I am a pro anime viewer.This review can go much longer but I don't want to spoil anything regaring this anime , so I am ending this review here.

ABSOLUTE CINEMA Just in 12 ep. a huge and complex story is told. This is the magic of 12 ep. animes. I finished it in one evening and got so many positive emotions and questions to think about. There is one drawback, it is a low budget because of which 3d is used, but only when it`s necessary. And fortunately it is not at all noticeable. The whole story is very well written and suspense is present everywhere. The plot knows how to hang the gun at the right place and let it fire at the right time. Vibe is very similar to Summertime Render, but unlike it, Kanata no Astra doesn`t let you get bored. It constantly brings you back to a state of tension and desire to solve the mystery. The immersion reaches such level that you put yourself in the characters` shoes and think through a plan of action in advance, come up with solutions and try to solve the secret. It`s crazy how so interesting and so complex story can be fetched in just 12 episodes. And by the way there`re many comedic moments, that actually fun and laughable, also there`re breaking the fourth wall and elements that are indirectly references, at least I found some for myself. I accidentally found out about this anime and wish more people would watch it and spread it. Kanata no Astra is totally worth watching. Hope You will enjoy:)

Tbh for me I really liked it it has a great anime and I like how each character is shown in there own way and how they compliment each character for there respected capabilities and I really like how they find a new planet on each episode which makes each episode feel different and unique I really liked this anime and I would highly recommend it and but the thing I wanted the most is more action but it's more of a exploring anime than action but I really like it even though some caractère were a lil different wat I expected

Enjoy the travel more than it's destination. Astra lost in space is a good soap opera but has some big flaws by the end. The ending delivers big closure for all characters, but the latter episodes becacome a big exposition dump, with great revelations and mysteries nonetheless. Shinohara Kenta is really good at doing just that (characters talking interesting stuff in the same room) because his previous work in Sket Dance was exactly full of that, but worked a lot better because of the premise. This series starts as a solid survival through unknown space planets in a very neat way, describing the planets with enough detail to make them feel alive while also juggling some great scifi concepts which become darker as they progress. By episode 7, the level of mystery is tremendous, but also the the planets take a seat as only a background for some scenes, and most of the story is developed by characters just talking and talking in the living room of the ship. Once the series arrives at the end, some developments which would have required more action are cut short to just more exposition. That left a nasty feeling after finishing the series, but I can't deny the trip was a lot of fun with characters with strong personalities and great developments of themselves, you can truly say that everyone is a different person after all they go through.

The hell bro how come this is a 8star rating? First of, a one of a kind anime that involves space exploration and survival. To add to that, we have suspense and 1 imposter to the ship that they have to find before they got killed. The twist is also unique and the final explanation to what's happening is easy to understand and pieces out the clue of the puzzle. Second, we have 5 different kinds of planets to explore, each planet has a unique kind of ecosystem and things that are in it, so it's refreshing to see the each different kinds of planets. Third, each character is unique of it's own. You can also feel and see that the characters are growing each episode, each thing or task that they have to do to survive. Finally, to conclude this, areis spring is such a cutie, and Kanata ma boiii is such a great character and leader to lead them all. Great anime, no, MASTERPIECE OF AN ANIME!!!

Visual wonder.. This is a very complete-feeling, well rounded anime. A nice story of friendship, coming of age, and space adventure, accompanied by some beautiful visuals and a lovely soundtrack. The most impressive thing here is that the story doesn't rely heavily on typical anime tropes and silliness, fan service, or bloody action, but instead completely immerses you through visual wonder, adventure, and lovable characters. It may not be remembered as the greatest anime ever (or even remembered at all), but it is an enjoyable experience the whole way through, and you may find yourself surprisingly excited if another season is announced.

I'll just say this I have watched over 300 different anime series, but this anime is one the best if not the best 12 episodes anime series that I have watched. This anime had so many mind-blowing twists and turns which I didn't see coming. The characters were well developed and the story was paced very well too, the only negative point was that this anime should have been a 26 episodes anime or more, cause there were so many things to explore in the plot, characters, and planets themselves. If you saw the show you know why I'm saying that this show needed more episodes. Overall I had a blast watching this show and I hope you find it amazing too.

This series was outstanding, a really great surprise. Had heard of it before but didn't spark my interest from the cover art/synopsis, but read a Youtube comment that had a bunch of likes about it being someone's favorite anime so I had to check it out It was just a joy to watch this, start to finish, the characters, story, interactions, had a perfect balance of adventure, sci fi elements, and it made me emotional Not going to lie I had tears rolling down my face multiple times from the emotions it brought out The music was superb and I turned my speakers up louder so I could really enjoy it. The voice acting was also immaculate. Really all around a top notch anime, the only slight thing I could even point out as a possible negative is the lack of realism of the way things panned out in the end, but this is an anime and I totally accept that suspending your disbelief is expected in a show like this. I'm usually not even particularly even into sci fi but this just had so many elements going for it, including the mystery of who the "betrayer" was, and also each episode's cliffhangers were epic so I binged the whole show The last thing is the characters are extremely well designed and likeable, and the way their feelings change and the flashbacks to their pasts and shared trauma they all endured just hits you in the feels Loved the art and style and really just so glad that the writers, musicians, artists, VA's and everyone's talents shined so well in this it was just absolutely amazing.

Astra is a good show, not great, but good. It's not ground-breaking or deep, but it's only 12 episodes of okay. With a legit ending, not one of those probably-never-going-to-make-another-season endings that drive me crazy. The characters are pretty bland, but oh well. Although the chracters seem to be WAY too lucky, most of thier good fortune has an explantion by the end of the show...Mostly. Though I still cringed at some of the character's very bad ideas. (eg, why do you have to go back for the dog tag? if all the wildlife is running away from something, so should you. Maybe don't cruise allong the surface of an unknown planet, you litterally just dodged giant bug-zapper plants.) I figured the cast as a whole was pretty naiive, so whatever. If you want a space thriller, you watch The Martian, but if you want to kill time, you watch anime.

I did not know what to expect from this anime, because I had begun to see it as to waste time and at the beginning of the 15 minutes of the first chapter it seemed to me that it was going to be that, an interesting space story with comedy and etc. ......... I WAS VERY WRONG. Kanata no Astra is not just a common space adventure, it is THE space adventure par excellence, I would say the best of all time and not only in anime, but as a bra in general, if it is true that it is not the only one with Turn in the plot, but in my opinion, no other series played the twists in the plot so well, as Kanata no astra did, every chapter, every revelation, was so stressful that I felt that my head would explode, as the weeks went by out of breath because of what I saw, I was always fascinated, I was never disappointed at any time, and I have a hard time understanding why there are people who see problems in which there has been humor in the series, I mean, it is not necessary that a series excellent have to be serious in its entirety, moreover, throughout the series smoke only 2 episodes with comedy that did not affect the plot at all, but there is always someone who believes himself superior for believing that humor in an anime is rubbish , for me it is very useless to throw shit to the work only because it is not a dark story as they want, and well if they are looking for that, then go read a batman comic, they are ideal for perfectionists like you.

SPOILER FREE REVIEW: At first I was already expecting this series to be good but to my surprise it was better than I expected due to the amount of character backstory and development that are included which are often discarded or cut off and the comedy scenes are also surprisingly funny but don't worry it's not all is well all the time for the characters ;) For me Kanata no Astra is just beautiful....it's nothing short of AMAZING. This is one of those the few series that you'll be able to binge even if you find errors within the show. If you watch it you'll wonder how would they explain a setting of space exploration which is very complex from our natural standpoint and the thing is....they don't. But I personally think that is a good thing so that the story would progress and it would appeal to broader audience who are interested in space adventure since it doesn't burn its run time by spouting complex calculations and endless explanations dealing with reality and completely losing the interest of the watchers...No I don't think this show is made for that. The same can't be said for the story complexity though but I can't talk about it since it's spoiler heavy and I don't want to ruin it for anybody...All I can say is that it is VERY VERY GUD JA The negative of this show is that at first there are things that they find or needed are sometimes so conveniently placed but fret not since most of it will be explained why or how it got there in the first place but trust me it's for the sake of the plot and some of it are connected to the plot twists of the show and speaking of plot twists...there are a bunch of it in here which some of it are obvious if you have a keen eye but most of it will surprise you out of nowhere which I personally like. This show is a Solid 9/10 for me and I can totally recommend it to anyone.

honestly it's been a while I've watched an anime and ended with complete satisfaction. if I could give this 100 stars I would. I was enchanted with with storytelling. the characters might sound and act dense at times but I think it's fine to be like that their personalities seem more real and we can see more of their character growth. the comedy relief starting from ep 8 was really enjoyable! also I also love how this series ended! honestly they could've just ended it during the half mark of the last episode but they extended the episode to give a proper epilogue for each characters much like how Digimon Adventure II ended so I really love that! this has a perfect score from me!
