Review of Amnesia

4/10

MINOR SPOILERS: Story 5/10: I'm going to get straight into the point. Amnesia starts off with a young female who doesn't have a name and is referred to as "Heroine", or "The" Heroine. She first bumps into a rather useless and annoying fairy called Orion. Because they bumped into each other, she for some reason loses her memories; thus, Orion helps her to get it back. But wait... there's more. Every time the girl dies she goes back to August 1st for some unknown reason, and every time she does, she is the girlfriend of one of the main males. The premise is interesting enough to catch yourattention - but the way they made it out to be in the show (or the execution, rather) is terrible. The logic of the anime doesn't make sense either. I can't really say much because I forgot 70% of the anime since it was on my on-hold list for many months. But an example I can provide in one of the later episodes you can that Heroine and Ukyo are having a conversation - but are doing it in the middle of the street. Why....? Suppose that a car is going that direction and ANYTHING can happen. Are you kidding me? Why couldn't they just talk on the sidewalk?

Art/Animation 6/10:

It's nothing special or unique. It was good for its time; mainly because of the character designs. That's really it though, but it's not bad, I've seen worse, I've seen better. But it was passable.

Animation? Nothing for me to take note on, it's generic.

Sound 3/10:

Take a shot every time the girl says "uhhh...".

Character 3/10:

Honestly, not even the guys are the saving grace of the show. Hell, I just appreciate their designs!

Heroine:

I don't get why the males are interested in her. Even when she loses her memories the guys still have the patience to be with her, and still love her after whatever-the-hell she was doing, and I respect that.
Moving on... the only good thing about Heroine over here is that she has a cute design. They never mention her name. You know how in those Persona animes they confirm the male lead's name? Why is she never given confirmed name? Well, she doesn't deserve one either which I'll get into in a second. I've mentioned before that she looks similar in more ways than one to Yui Komori from Diabolik Lovers. Well... yeah, she pretty much is. I wouldn't be surprised if the creators of this anime pretty much saw Heroine and then made Yui Komori. They have an identical face and don't do shit.
Heroine, just like Yui, is a flat one-dimensional character. She has no personality, no talents, no motives, no goals, no hobbies, no humor, and is INCREDIBLY unintelligent. And despite NUMEROUS times being warned not to go out, or if she is being warned before danger happens, she persists. She's just asking to be killed wasting her life like that. She is one of the worst reverse harem protagonist in anime history. 2nd place behind Yui Komori. If Diabolik Lovers didn't exist, I would put her on 1st place. Anyways... she also doesn't do anything outside of working and speaking to her bishie boyfriends who have these... eccentric ass designs. You get what I'm saying? Just like Yui, the only thing Heroine has got going for her, is her existence alone. She doesn't even feel like a real person, she isn't even a decent one either, just terrible. It makes me wonder what she was like before she lost her memories. Was she a different person? Idk. I'm not playing the games to find out either. Maybe I'll look it up one day.

And even if she lost her memories, wouldn't she have something she could easily pick up to remember if it was her thing, like...being into writing or something? Y'know just by writing and picking up that knack for writing again?

Orion:

A rather useless and annoying fairy. I don't like his voice either, he always says he'll guide or help Heroine but points out the obvious with what little screen time he gets, and can't do anything to protect her, like using powers or whatever. I'm glad he realized he was useless, 'cuz he IS.

As for the males... Shin isn't a bad character. But I only like him because he has the best character design in my opinion. Ikki I misunderstood, he's a nice and caring character for Heroine.
Kent is meh. Not my favorite. Touma is a yikes. Locking someone up in a cage should definitely get you arrested. Sure as hell any opportunity I would get, I would call. Ukyo I didn't care for. but I felt bad that he was experiencing genuine pain from being killed over and over again in gruesome ways. And that he was trying to kill Heroine (who doesn't deserve to exist by the way) because she was the one effing everything up.

Enjoyment 2/10:

None. Each and every episode I could feel my soul leaving my body. I kept thinking "why do I do this to myself?". Damn... terrible anime is fascinating yet... boring. Again, not even the bois were the saving grace of the show. I'm just glad I got it over with.

Overall 4/10:

I cannot believe I got through this. I think every bad anime I watch, I feel my mental health deteriorating.
Anyway, Amnesia could've been better if they fixed how this adaptation from the game was going to be made into the anime. I'm not surprised seeing that there are 12 episodes when they could've fleshed out some things. There was no character development, we yet again, have another terrible female lead in a reverse harem aaaaaand... yeah. I'm done. I don't want to have nothing to do with this anime. So forgive me while I go to bed.
