"Higehiro: After Being Rejected, I Shaved and Took in a High School Runaway" starts with a premise that could have been a heartfelt slice-of-life story about loneliness and unexpected companionship. The animation is passable—nothing exceptional, but serviceable for this genre. The sound design is similarly minimal, fitting the laid-back atmosphere but not adding much. However, the story quickly derails due to extremely questionable writing choices.

**Problematic Characterization of the High School Girl**
The main issue is how the female lead is portrayed. Instead of a complex runaway with understandable reasons for her choices, she’s depicted as someone who has slept with multiple men for money, essentially turning ... her into a stereotype of a “whore.” This portrayal is not only offensive but also deeply problematic for an anime that expects the audience to sympathize with her. Family problems are common struggles for many characters, but that doesn’t justify depicting her as engaging in illegal and exploitative behavior. It’s a lazy and harmful shortcut in storytelling.

**Missed Opportunity with the Protagonist’s Arc**
The protagonist is a pure, innocent salaryman who already has a genuine crush on his senpai. The senpai’s rejection actually carried emotional depth, showing hesitation but affection — something the story cruelly ignores. Instead of developing this emotional thread, the writer jumps into a controversial and uncomfortable relationship with the runaway girl. This was a huge missed opportunity to tell a more meaningful, respectful story about unrequited love and personal growth.

**Why Not a Cleaner, More Respectful Setup?**
If the writer insisted on making the runaway girl the focus, the story could have introduced her without immediately involving her in sex work or illegal acts. For instance, she could have met the protagonist without having “slept with many men,” preserving her dignity and making her a more sympathetic, multi-dimensional character. Instead, the story chooses to sensationalize her background in a way that feels cheap and exploitative — a decision that ruins any chance of genuine emotional connection.

**Uncomfortable and Exploitative Writing Overshadows the Anime**
Overall, “Higehiro” fails to deliver a thoughtful narrative and instead settles for uncomfortable and exploitative storytelling. While the animation and sound are adequate for a slice-of-life show, the core writing is misguided and offensive. The anime tries to navigate sensitive themes but does so clumsily, resulting in a series that’s difficult to recommend. If you want a respectful and meaningful story about hardship and relationships, look elsewhere — this one misses the mark entirly.

"Aria the Scarlet Ammo – A Cautionary Tale of Everything Wrong with Anime Tropes"

In Tokyo where students are trained in gun combat and detective work at Butei High School, our “hero” Kinji Tohyama tries to live a quiet life after quitting the Butei elite forces. That is, until he gets roped back in by a sudden attack and is “rescued” by a pink-haired pistol-wielding girl who literally crashes into his life. Enter Aria H. Kanzaki — a small, hot-tempered, gun-slinging tsundere who's supposedly the descendant of Sherlock Holmes.

Sounds like it could be a fun, action-packed school anime, right?

Wrong.

😡 Main Character: Kinji Tohyama – A Human ... Doormat with Zero Integrity
Kinji is quite possibly one of the worst male leads I’ve ever had the displeasure of watching. He’s the kind of MC who is constantly being abused (verbally and physically), humiliated, and degraded — and yet, for whatever unfathomable reason, he keeps falling for the girl doing all of this to him: Aria.

He has what the show calls “Hysteria Mode,” a ridiculous power-up that activates when he’s aroused — yes, aroused — and turns him into a badass superman for a few minutes. The disturbing part? A large chunk of these triggers revolve around Aria, who looks and acts like a 10-year-old child. The show tries to play this off as “funny” or “cool,” but it’s neither. It’s just creepy and cringe-inducing.

There are smarter, kinder, more mature women around Kinji — like Shirayuki, who literally puts her life on the line for him — but he continues to simp for Aria, whose only personality traits are “small,” “violent,” and “loud.”

It’s insulting to watch. It’s like the writer went out of their way to create the most spineless, irrational, and oblivious male protagonist imaginable.

🤯 Aria H. Kanzaki – A Walking Checklist of Everything Wrong with Tsundere Tropes
Let’s be blunt: Aria is not a strong female lead. She is a caricature of a tsundere stereotype taken to its most obnoxious extreme. She’s constantly hitting Kinji, yelling at everyone, and throwing tantrums like a toddler who missed nap time. Her small stature and overly childish design only add to the problem — especially when the show keeps pushing her as the romantic lead.

Her arrogance isn’t balanced with competence; her aggressiveness isn’t softened by vulnerability. She’s just an exhausting, one-note character who gets more screen time than she deserves. Worse, the show sexualizes her in ways that are both uncomfortable and completely unnecessary. It’s frankly bizarre and unsettling.

🚨 Romantic Dynamics – A Masterclass in Poor Writing and Creepy Priorities
What absolutely kills this anime is how hard it tries to force a “romance” between Kinji and Aria — despite it being toxic, one-sided, and painfully unrealistic. You have other girls — Shirayuki, Riko, even Jeanne — who show real affection, trust, and development, but they are cast aside just to spotlight the abusive, unfunny tsundere antics of Aria.

The emotional weight of the story is drowned in a sea of slapstick abuse, awkward fanservice, and misplaced fetishism. The worst part? Kinji’s reactions to Aria are frequently laced with inappropriate attraction, even when she’s in clearly childlike or compromising situations. It’s not romantic. It’s not comedic. It’s uncomfortable.

🧨 Story, Worldbuilding, and Pacing – All Style, No Substance
The action scenes are bland. The detective elements are laughably thin. The missions feel like a lazy excuse to throw Kinji and Aria into more forced “romantic” tension. The pacing jumps between edgy action and tone-deaf harem comedy with no consistency.

There’s potential in the premise — a school for gun-wielding teenage detectives could’ve been amazing in the hands of better writers. Instead, we get meaningless plot twists, inconsistent lore, and tons of screen time wasted on Aria screaming at Kinji over misunderstandings while he stares at her like she’s some kind of divine creature.

⚰️ Final Verdict: Stay Far, Far Away
Aria the Scarlet Ammo is not just a bad anime — it’s an embarrassing anime. It’s everything wrong with the worst of anime tropes: a pervy power system, an MC with the spine of a boiled noodle, and a female lead who’s emotionally stunted, physically childlike, and violently unlikeable.

The show romanticizes abuse, fetishizes immaturity, and actively ignores any meaningful emotional connection between characters. It’s not a bold take. It’s not even an edgy comedy. It’s lazy, creepy, and creatively bankrupt.

If you’re looking for action with strong female leads, interesting relationships, or even just a coherent tone — watch anything else.

Skip this. Burn the Blu-rays. Forget it exists.

"The Monarch Begins: Darker, bloodier, and a massive leap in stakes."

🖼️ Visuals & Animation – 10/10
Season 2 takes everything from S1 and levels it up.

The Ant Island Arc features wide-scale battles, aerial combat, and gore-heavy sequences with high detail.

Jin-Woo’s new gear looks stunning, especially his Black Heart Set armor and the shadow-summoning animations.

Shadows like Beru, Tusk, and Iron are beautifully rendered, each with unique color palettes, body language, and effects.
...
The cinematography is cinematic — wide camera pans, slow motion during key strikes, and highly fluid animation during speed-based fights like Jin-Woo vs Ant King.

📖 Story Progression – 9.5/10
Season 2 adapts the Red Gate Arc through the Jeju Island Raid Arc. It’s no longer about just Jin-Woo surviving — now it’s about establishing dominance, protecting Korea from national-level threats, and understanding his mysterious powers.

Key events:

Red Gate Dungeon: Jin-Woo saves his team, displays terrifying new power.

Ahjin Guild is Formed: Officially registers his own guild (though used mostly as a front).

Jeju Island Arc: The centerpiece of the season — Korea and Japan's joint mission against the Ants ends in tragedy and glory.

Jin-Woo vs Ant King is one of the best 1v1 fights in modern anime.

👑 Jin-Woo's Growth & Shadows – 10/10
He’s no longer scared — Jin-Woo is confident, strategic, and commanding. He now makes decisions not just for survival, but to protect his nation, honor his fallen comrades, and test his limits.

His shadow army becomes a key identity marker.

Beru, the shadow of the Ant King, is fiercely loyal and terrifying.

Igris, Iron, Tusk, and Kaisel round out a small but growing elite force.
Watching him teleport, command armies, and solo S-rank beasts is ridiculously satisfying.

⚔️ Fight Sequences – 10/10
Every fight in Season 2 is a showstopper:

Jin-Woo vs Ice Elves (Red Gate): A fast, beautifully choreographed fight with team stakes.

Jin-Woo vs Ant King: Raw power clash with tactical depth and emotional build-up.

Beru vs Korean S-Ranks: A flex of Jin-Woo’s control over his shadows.

The animation here rivals movie-level production — crisp, weighty, and explosive.

🌌 Worldbuilding & Hints of Bigger Lore – 8.5/10
Here’s where Season 2 hits its only limitation — the deeper story elements are only teased, not yet explored.

The term “Monarch” is mentioned vaguely.

A mysterious voice and flashbacks start to appear.

The System’s creator, Ashborn, and interdimensional wars are hinted at — but not explained.

Fans of the manhwa or light novel will recognize these teases, but anime-only viewers may be left curious with no clear answers. That said, it's an effective setup for future seasons.

🔊 Sound & Music – 10/10
The OST evolves with the story:

Fight scenes are now paired with swelling orchestras and heavy percussion.

Emotional moments, like the deaths of key characters on Jeju Island, are underlined with minimalist piano or silence, amplifying the impact.

Beru’s voice, shadow teleportation sounds, and Jin-Woo’s dark aura all sound rich and immersive.

📈 Pacing & Engagement – 10/10
This season wastes no time. Each arc builds momentum. From Red Gate's survival horror to Jeju’s massive war, the scale of danger and power increases exponentially. Every episode ends with a cliffhanger or power reveal. The tension stays high throughout.

✅ Final Thoughts – Season 2
Solo Leveling Season 2 is everything a sequel should be:

Larger scale,

More intense battles,

A stronger lead,

And deeper stakes.

Even though the lore is still mostly a mystery, the visual storytelling, action, and pacing make it impossible to look away.

“The rise of the weakest – a masterclass in character transformation and immersive world-building”

🖼️ Animation & Visuals: 10/10
Season 1 starts strong and keeps getting visually better with each episode. A-1 Pictures outdid themselves — dark tones and rich shading perfectly reflect the gritty dungeon environment. The aura effects, glowing system interfaces, and intense lighting during action scenes are mesmerizing. One of the most iconic visuals is Jin-Woo’s awakening in the dual dungeon. His blood-drenched transformation, golden system messages, and glowing blue eyes mark the beginning of a visual feast.

🎭 Story & Structure: 9.5/10
The story follows Sung Jin-Woo, a frail E-rank hunter ridiculed by society and ... struggling to support his ill mother. The real twist happens when a double dungeon nearly wipes out his party, and Jin-Woo, left behind, accepts a mysterious “System’s” offer to become a Player.
From here, the story evolves like an RPG — with quests, penalties, levels, skills, and dungeons — yet it doesn’t feel cliché. What sets it apart is the constant progression and mystery:

Why is he the only Player?

What is the System’s true goal?

What secrets lie beyond Korea’s borders?

Season 1 gradually teases the answers while keeping the narrative tight.

🧍‍♂️ Character Development: 10/10
Jin-Woo’s journey is a textbook example of flawless character growth. He starts as someone scared, physically weak, and emotionally resigned. But after his resurrection by the System, he doesn’t just grow stronger — he becomes colder, calculating, and determined.

His transformation is not instant. You see the pain, the fear, the ruthlessness slowly grow.
Moments like:

Standing up to the dungeon boss alone.

Beating higher-ranked hunters without breaking a sweat.

Facing betrayal from fellow hunters — and walking away silently, yet stronger.

All these cement his evolution into a king-like figure.

⚔️ Action & Fight Scenes: 10/10
The fights in Season 1 are clean, brutal, and personal. The animators capture every slash, dodge, and skill-activation with fluid motion and great impact.

Standout moments:

Jin-Woo vs Cerberus – the moment he defeats a creature 10 levels above him is both nerve-racking and triumphant.

Jin-Woo vs Hwang Dong-Su’s team – showing off his skill difference with terrifying ease.

Shadow Extraction for the first time – the blue-black smoke, the magic circle, the trembling corpses – it’s haunting and amazing.

Every fight is a blend of tension, drama, and satisfaction.

🧟 Shadow System Introduction: 10/10
The moment Jin-Woo unlocks the Necromancer/Shadow Monarch abilities, the anime shifts into a higher gear. His first shadow, Kaisel the knight, is both loyal and powerful. As he collects more, they become his army, creating a sense of authority and scale never before seen in shonen.

🔊 Sound & OST: 9.5/10
The opening theme “LEveL” by Hiroyuki Sawano is a banger. Sound design during fights – sword slashes, impact booms, magical pulses – is on point. Emotional scenes are supported by somber, minimalist piano or rising orchestral tracks. Some moments may feel like a movie rather than an anime episode.

📈 Pacing & Enjoyment: 10/10
Every episode ends with a cliffhanger or revelation. There are no wasted scenes. The training montages are exciting because each new skill or stat gain has real consequences in the next fight. This is anime storytelling done right.

🏁 Final Verdict:
Season 1 is a near-perfect introduction to the Solo Leveling universe — combining game mechanics, a dark power fantasy, and character drama with elite production quality. It ends with Jin-Woo finally standing as a force to be reckoned with — and hints at global threats to come.

Score: 10/10 – A thunderous beginning to an epic saga.

So you're telling me this show—Kaguya-sama: Love is War – Ultra Romantic—is supposed to be some “intellectual romantic comedy masterpiece”? Yeah, no. It’s just a bunch of high-IQ idiots acting like emotionally constipated middle schoolers, and then the “alpha” MC makes the dumbest possible romantic decision because… reasons?

Let’s talk about it.

🧠 The MC: Supposedly Smart, Emotionally Stupid
Shirogane is hyped up as this ultra-disciplined, top-performing, cold-blooded genius. Dude runs the student council, works jobs, raises his sister, survives with no money—all while dominating exams like a machine.

So what does this certified sigma male do?

He falls head over heels for Kaguya Shinomiya, the rich girl who:
...
Is manipulative

Emotionally repressed

Has major superiority complex issues

Spends the majority of the show scheming like a Bond villain to avoid being vulnerable for 2 seconds

And we’re supposed to root for this relationship?

😡 Kaguya: Cold, Arrogant, and Not That Deep
Look, I get the “tsundere ice queen with hidden emotions” trope. But Kaguya isn’t charming—she’s irritating. She constantly belittles people, looks down on others, and acts like a smug aristocrat half the time.

Her emotional development? Too little, too late. Most of her screentime is spent dodging affection, acting like vulnerability is death, and turning literally everything into a power struggle.

Oh, and let’s be real—she’s not even that attractive compared to other characters. The show treats her like she’s Aphrodite descended from heaven, but half the time she looks like she just bit a lemon.

👀 Meanwhile, We Had a Better Option: Chika Fujiwara
Chika may be dumb as bricks, but she’s:

Cheerful

Supportive

Honest

Actually fun to be around

And unlike Kaguya, she doesn't treat people like pawns in a 4D chess game. She would’ve made a far more natural, emotionally healthy, and entertaining partner.

But of course, the writer never lets her be a real romantic option. Why? Because she’s “comic relief.” Cool. Let’s waste a genuinely likable character so the brooding rich girl can win the scripted romance lottery.

💥 Ultra Romantic = Ultra Predictable
The title “Ultra Romantic” implies some grand emotional payoff. What do we get?

A dragged-out confession that takes 3 seasons of mental gymnastics to deliver

A balloon stunt that tries to be deep but feels painfully overproduced

A kiss that’s so awkwardly earned it feels like a hostage situation

All that build-up, all that supposed “emotional chess,” and it still feels forced. Shirogane’s affection comes off as pure plot obligation, not natural chemistry.

🤡 Final Thoughts
The show spends seasons telling you these two are smart. But their romance only works if you turn your brain off. It’s a relationship built on pride, mind games, and complete emotional immaturity. It’s not romantic—it’s exhausting.

And don’t get me started on the fandom acting like this is the greatest love story ever written. It's not. It’s just two narcissists fumbling through love while better, more lovable characters get sidelined for laughs.

Final Verdict: 1/10
This ain't love. This is two emotionally stunted elites playing “who confesses first” while the audience waits for actual character growth.
Chika deserved better. We all did.

If you ever wanted to watch a fantasy anime where the main character has the emotional intelligence of a brick, the romantic lead treats him like dogshit, and the story rewards abuse with romance—congrats. Zero no Tsukaima is exactly that trainwreck.

🤡 Meet the Main Character: The Human Doormat
So let’s talk about Saito, the guy who gets isekai’d to a magical world. Cool setup, right? But what does he do there?

He gets enslaved by Louise, the main girl, who instantly starts beating him, shocking him, degrading him, and treating him like a literal pet. And what does Saito do in response?

He falls in love with her.

Seriously. ... Is he into pain? Does he have a humiliation kink? Because there’s no other explanation for choosing a girl who:

Calls him a dog (and means it).

Whips him for talking.

Jealously assaults him for not doing anything with other girls.

Has the body of a 12-year-old yet somehow thinks she’s God’s gift to men.

This isn’t a romance—it’s an unhealthy power fantasy where the guy is treated like trash, and the anime calls it “tsundere charm.” It’s not. It’s just abuse.

🧂 Meanwhile, Better Girls Exist and Are Thrown Away
Let’s list a few of the better choices:

Siesta – Kind, affectionate, and clearly into him. But nah, too nice.

Henrietta – A literal princess, elegant, loyal, gorgeous... but not enough drama, I guess.

Tabitha – Quiet, mysterious, also ten times more competent than Louise.

All of them have brains, hearts, and beauty, but Saito turns them down to chase after his emotionally abusive pink-haired middle-school tsundere with the body of a broomstick and the ego of a dictator.

WHY?

💰 So Is It the Money? The Status?
Let’s be real. Louise is rich, noble, and powerful. So maybe Saito’s just a gold-digging masochist who’s into being stepped on by royalty? Because from a viewer’s perspective, nothing else makes sense.

He’s treated like crap the whole time, and instead of saying “You know what, I deserve better,” he keeps crawling back like a simp with Stockholm Syndrome. Even when better women are literally throwing themselves at him.

📉 Final Thoughts: The Tsundere Disease
Zero no Tsukaima is everything wrong with the “tsundere waifu” trope on steroids. It rewards bad behavior, glorifies emotional abuse, and tells you that being treated like garbage is true love. It’s not. It’s exhausting.

And don’t even get me started on how repetitive and lazy the later seasons get. Plot? Nope. Just more slaps, more jealousy, more fanservice, and a never-ending shrine to Louise’s undeserved dominance.

Final Verdict: 1/10
The MC is a punching bag with no spine. The main girl is a brat with no charm. The romance is an insult to human relationships.
If you like watching trash romance with zero logic and painful characters, congrats—you’ve found your poison.

I went into Berserk expecting an emotionally complex, gritty medieval tale about struggle, ambition, and loyalty. And for a while, it was exactly that. The Golden Age arc is incredible—slow-building, character-rich, with deep emotional investment. Guts is a tragic hero you want to see succeed. Griffith is a complex, charismatic leader whose ambition feels both inspiring and dangerous. Casca is layered and strong. The camaraderie within the Band of the Hawk is real. The story promises something great.

Then comes the ending. Or more accurately, the nuclear obliteration of any sense of purpose, hope, or narrative coherence.

⚔️ The First 80%: Masterful Setup
Strong Worldbuilding: The Hundred-Year War, ... the kingdom politics, the rise of mercenaries—everything feels grounded and mature.

Emotional Stakes: Guts and Griffith’s ideological clash is powerful. Guts walking away from the Band is one of the most emotionally mature and well-earned moments in anime.

Grit Without Gratuitousness: For most of the series, the violence has narrative weight. It's brutal but not exploitative.

It feels like you're watching the birth of something legendary.

💀 The Final Episodes: Burn It All to the Ground
Then—suddenly—we are in hell.

The Eclipse: A cosmic horror bloodbath comes out of nowhere. Demons appear like a bad acid trip. Characters you’ve loved for 24 episodes are slaughtered in the most grotesque ways imaginable.

Griffith's “Ascension”: He sacrifices everyone—every single loyal friend—to become a literal demon overlord. And oh yeah, he rapes Casca in front of Guts for good measure, because shock value apparently trumps storytelling.

Guts’ Fate: His eye gets gouged out. His arm is ripped off. He’s forced to watch the woman he loves destroyed mentally and physically. There is no catharsis. No victory. No lesson. Just trauma.

The tonal shift is so drastic it feels like you accidentally switched to an entirely different anime—one made by Satan on a bad day.

👎 What Went Wrong
Narrative Betrayal: All the careful buildup is tossed away for shock horror. It’s not “subverting expectations”—it’s spitting in the face of emotional investment.

No Resolution: The anime ends mid-trauma. No aftermath. No revenge. Just Guts screaming into hell, and then... credits roll. Imagine watching The Empire Strikes Back and it ends right after Han gets frozen—with zero context for what’s next. That's what this feels like.

Gratuitous Edge: There’s a difference between dark storytelling and edgelord garbage. Berserk crosses the line hard in the finale.

"Read the Manga" Syndrome: Telling people they have to read 300+ chapters of manga to get closure isn’t a defense of the anime—it’s an admission that it completely failed as a standalone adaptation.

🧠 Final Thoughts
The worst part? Berserk was this close to being a masterpiece. But instead of following through on its promise, it ends with trauma porn and no soul.

If you’re watching to be moved, inspired, or fulfilled by the story—prepare to have your heart ripped out and fed to a demon. It’s unforgettable, sure. But sometimes, unforgettable is not a compliment.

Final Verdict: 4/10
Start with brilliance. End with despair. And not the good kind.
If you want a complete story, satisfaction, or redemption—Berserk’s anime gives you none of it.

I had high hopes going into Code Geass R2 after the first season’s intriguing plot and complex characters, but unfortunately, this sequel utterly fails to deliver. What could have been a brilliant continuation instead unravels into a confusing, frustrating mess that betrays everything that made the original compelling.

First and foremost, the writing feels rushed and inconsistent. Instead of clever strategic battles and nuanced character development, the plot devolves into over-the-top melodrama and forced twists that make little sense. Key characters, especially Lelouch, make baffling decisions that ignore their intelligence and previously established motivations. Lelouch’s ultimate choice to sacrifice himself as a scapegoat — a move ... that should have been thoughtful and impactful — instead feels lazy and downright insulting to his character. This “noble martyr” ending smacks of convenience rather than genuine strategy or growth.

Moreover, many new characters are underdeveloped or simply annoying, and the return of some old characters feels shoehorned in with no meaningful purpose. The pacing is all over the place, swinging from slow, dragging scenes to frantic action with zero balance. The stakes never feel real because the plot constantly bends over backward to keep Lelouch invincible or to manufacture drama artificially.

Visually and musically, while the animation quality remains decent, it cannot save this wreck of a story. The mecha designs and battle sequences lose their impact amidst the nonsensical plot shifts.

In short, Code Geass R2 is a frustrating disappointment that squanders its potential with poor writing, bad pacing, and character betrayals. It’s painful to watch such a smart protagonist reduced to making the dumbest decisions possible just for shock value. I cannot recommend this season to anyone who loved the original or enjoys intelligent storytelling.
Rating: 1/10 — A waste of time and potential.

Talentless Nana starts with an intriguing premise: a powerless girl, Nana, is sent to assassinate superpowered students under the guise of being one of them. The hook is immediate, and the twist in Episode 1 genuinely shocks. But beyond that, the anime quickly devolves into a frustrating, writer-controlled mess where logic takes a backseat to artificial suspense.

The biggest problem? The story is constantly bent to favor Nana, no matter how absurd or unlikely the situation. Whenever she’s on the verge of being caught, the plot finds a convenient excuse to bail her out — often making other characters act irrationally or simply forget to communicate ... crucial facts. This isn’t clever writing; it’s narrative manipulation.

Take Kyoya, for example. He’s introduced as the intellectual foil to Nana — a potential Light vs. L dynamic. But while he seems observant and suspicious, he’s repeatedly neutered by the script. Despite having multiple chances to expose Nana, he chooses not to — not for believable reasons, but because the story refuses to move forward unless Nana remains in control.

The rest of the cast suffers similarly. Characters are conveniently dumbed down, don't share information, and often die in ways that feel forced. It becomes less a game of wits and more a one-sided performance where only Nana is allowed to "play smart." The tension loses its bite when you realize she’ll always be saved by the pen rather than her mind.

Stylistically, the anime tries to blend psychological thriller with emotional backstories, but the emotional beats lack weight because the structure feels so manipulated. Even moments that try to redeem Nana fall flat when the rest of the cast has been reduced to pawns in her survival script.

🧾 Verdict
What could have been a sharp, gripping psychological drama ends up feeling like an edgy concept trapped in a rigged game. The writer’s obsession with protecting Nana drains all credibility from the plot and neuters every opportunity for real tension. If you're looking for a battle of minds, look elsewhere.

Rating: 4/10
– Starts strong, but crumbles under its own manipulative storytelling.

"What the actual f** did I just watch?"*
Let me be brutally honest — this anime is a f***ing disaster.

I went into Yosuga no Sora expecting a romantic drama with maybe some emotional depth, but what I got was an incest-fueled, morally bankrupt mess that left me wondering how the hell this ever made it to mainstream television. The script is absolute dogsh*t. The dialogue is lifeless, the pacing is garbage, and every single relationship in this series feels like it was written by someone who should be on a watchlist, not writing anime.

Let me be clear — I'm not complaining about the idea of exploring ... complex or even taboo relationships in theory, if they're handled with maturity or actual narrative depth. But this? This was just softcore incest porn masquerading as a romance drama. And it's not subtle. The sex scenes — yes, actual full-blown sex scenes — are so graphic and unnecessary that I genuinely forgot I wasn’t watching a hentai. It’s uncomfortable, exploitative, and completely undermines any attempt at character development or emotional tension.

And then there's the relationship between Haruka and Sora — holy sht. Who the f** thought a romantic storyline between a brother and sister would be a good idea, let alone one where the show tries to romanticize and normalize it? It's not thought-provoking. It’s not boundary-pushing. It’s just plain f***ed up.

What bothers me even more is how casually the show treats this theme, like it's just another quirky plot twist. No deep psychological exploration, no emotional conflict worth a damn — just straight-up "Hey, my sister wants to bang me, and that’s totally cool now." What the actual f***?

Seriously — how is this even considered anime and not just hentai with a better budget? This kind of twisted sister fetish crap belongs in the deepest, most depraved corners of hentai — not in a show being marketed as a romantic drama for teens and young adults. I genuinely worry about what kind of message this sends to viewers, especially younger audiences. If you’re 16 or 17 and watching this, what the hell are you supposed to think about your family after that?

To the writers, directors, and anyone who greenlit this abomination: shame on you. You’ve crossed a line — not in a brave or bold way, but in a disgusting, tone-deaf, borderline harmful way. This is not art. This is fetish trash pretending to be something deeper.

Final Verdict:
Yosuga no Sora is a f**ed up, incest-glorifying trainwreck that should have stayed buried in the hentai world. The fact that it's marketed as mainstream anime is both baffling and disturbing. Avoid this sht like the plague.
