Review of Hyouka

"Watashi kininarimasu!" - Chitanda Eru It's probably a sentence that you've read in other reviews, but it's just one of the characteristics of the story. First off, this anime is just awesome. It really is amazing and deserves to be highly rated. I haven't read the manga, a lot of people say to also look at the manga but since that one isn't translated fully yet, I decided to make review for the anime. Story: I'll start with saying that this a character-based anime (which means that the anime is dependent of the characters). The story is very simpel, but since it's character-based it's very enjoyable. To put it downto the essential things, it's about a boy who's school-life looks grey, but takes a sudden turn. However, I gave this a 9 and not a 10 since I think that the story is still a little underdeveloped at the end (BUT that's something you'll see for yourself!)
PS: For those who heard there was romance in this anime, please read the genres again! The romance is really limited, though very fitting)

Art:
The art is truly amazing! It's very detailed, the shadowing is very well done and I couldn't find any flaws. The art fits with the surroundings and the characters are very enjoyable to just look at! The background is just as detailed as the foreground, which didn't make it irritating to watch! I gave this a 9 since I would've liked to see a little more variety in the scenery here and there!

Sound:
As for the sound, it's not something I often listen to BUT! the OP and the ED were enjoyable and I let them play to their extent every now and then. Also what I think is important to mention when talking about the sound is the voices of the characters. The voices suited the characters very well. The main characters have nice voices which doesn't make it irritating to listen to. The background sounds are also befitting the scenery very nice, so yeah! No complaints there either! I gave this a 10 since it's, to my opinion, flawless!

Characters:
As I said, the anime is character-based so the characters are a very fatal subject. It was funny to see how the characters could differ so much, but fit so well together! The characters were very enjoyable throughout the whole anime and didn't irritate me even one bit! There was a lot of character development in my opinion, for such a short anime! (Most of you will be like '22 episodes isn't short! But hey... It kinda feels like it when you watch this)
I gave this a 10, because the characters were just too amazing.

Enjoyment:
There's nothing more to say here except: It's a very enjoyable anime and you should definitely watch it! The producers did a very good job and the writer wrote a truly amazing story! (Again if you want to watch this for the romance, just watch this for the romance!)
