Gabriel U @RT39908174 Jun 19 Good anime, good caracters, but See more trapy a @RT30004327 10/19/2024 sorry for my bad english and here is my review to sonny boy this anime is just a pure joyride you dont know whats happening you dont know whats the goal but ill say you probably will enjoy the journey if you dont take it all to serious .... but if you try to see some sense in this anime its hell from random journeys of friends that take a few thousand years where they life completly cut off and alone but peaceful to then just rejoin their group wich done nothing for anyone to characters appearing & disappearing at random how they feel like ... everything being kept cryptic on purpose where some characters know all the answers but dont feel telling it to anyone its just a mess and i feel like even the writers themself dont really know what they are doing with the story but even though the story is a mess its quite good if you watch it in the background while doing something else having always interesting stuff to watch when you have the time to look at it since the conversations not often build on existing knowledge/story lore but are most often just statements or random chit chat paired with a few short side storys colorful and bright scenes i say give it a try but not as main focus this anime in my opinion needs to be handled as background to something else to be really enjoyed dont try to follow the plot for your own sake See more R Z @RT03038375 05/26/2023 Cool art style. But the storytelling is mush. I can appreciate a complex or interpretive message, but this is just random spaghetti. The dumbest part is instead of showing cool stuff, the anime will just show random filler shots of the beach or forest while the characters *talk about* cool stuff. Like there's a whole episode of a guy talking about a team of baseball-playing monkeys, when they could've just shown us the monkeys doing that See more Read all reviews
