Anime 53428 Ayaka Reviews Filter Check 1

Hi! This is my first time reviewing an anime so I will explain how I watch and rate things.

there are a few criteria that I look for, most importantly the animation quality, the story, and the characters. What is less of a priority for me is the concept of the anime and the music.

now onto the review:

animation: 5. The animation is alright. nothing really bad (ahem ahem... nanatsu no taizai), but also nothing to write home about. What is missing is dynamics and fluidity in the climaxes of the episodes. It feels static.

Story: 6. I think that the story line is pretty fluent. ... There is nothing really surprising at this moment, but the mysteries are slowly being laid out and are waiting to be answered.

Characters: 7. The characters are pretty good at this moment. Some are there for obvious reasons (Jingi), but most of the characters are playing well of eachother. It is to early to speak of character development (except for Yukito). So this grade could change.

Concept: 8. This is more of a subjective thing, but for me, the concept of this anime is what will make me watch the season. It's really interesting how the powers work in Ayaka. it has a mix of JJK and Naruto. which are both good.

Music: 7. good music, not groundbeaking but just good music.

all in all, I enjoyed the first three ep. and I think I'll watch the entire season

Great series, shaky beginning but it seems to have payed off very well.

Animation 6/10: not horrible it's not as refined as other anime but well made all in all. Lovely tame colors. Refreshing.

Characters 7/10: lots of different personalities, lovable and well designed keeping in mind the animation.

Plot 8/10: although the plot we've seen done so much, it is a charming rendition of it. It's not an edge of your seat anime by any means until the later episodes but well presented throughout.

Aggravations: tease of power from MC gets breaked up continuously but it seems to have had a reason too be, no clear ... plot path until a few episodes in.

I'd say in comparison with the other anime of the season it is underrated, typical plot with a good story behind it, nice and refreshing from the mid-isekai riddled market.

OVERALL SCORE: 7.5

First review ever, hopefully it was worth your time.

I liked this anime it was good but there were things that could take it to the next level.

Character development wasn't the best and could have been better. They could have gone deeper in the connections between the characters and some of the conflicts between them. I believe that if they had more than one season they would be able to dwell into the characters more and make them more nuanced.

Animation was okay, it isn't the worst or the best I've seen. The Ara mitama could have been better animated and "drawn" to better fit in as they feel a bit out of place.

The ... story line could have had a lot of potential if they had more time to work with. They could dive deeper into the past, present and possibly the future after the end. The way the ending was presented made it seem like this story was over with this season which I think is a bummer as I would love for them to dive deeper.

TLDR
They could have made the story better if dived deeper into characters and slowed down the story.
