Review of Dan Da Dan
Well, what can we say about probably the hottest anime of the season. Overall, Dandadan is a good shonen. First of all, the strongest part of the anime is the picture and animation. I can say that here is some of the best animation in the anime industry. It's amazing. Also I would like to point out that unlike other shonen, here, so far, the plot is not built in such a way that there are some monsters, "bad guys", and the main characters eliminate them because... they are bad. It's dull and primitive. Here the characters were solving their certain clear problems that they faced, you can't saythat they do it pointlessly and for nothing.
Speaking of negative moments, which are negative for me personally, I hate love triangles, and personally for me it's a minus. The relationship between the protagonist and main girl developed well, and I generally wanted to point out that the characters' relationship develops well, and it's not necessarily through a love triangle to lead the protagonist to reveal his feelings to her, which obviously will happen. This would happen at some point, you don't have to think that he's going to take her away from you, it's really basic. The only point of the love triangle is this, if that point didn't exist it would just be awful, now it's not so awful, but it's still problematic for me personally. In general, there's to much romance stuff, as for an anime that is not in the romance genre, is a bit much in my opinion, a little bit.
Actually, despite the fact that I spend time on what I don't like, this is still ONE aspect that I don't like, related to the romance line. And so, the anime is good, with stunning visuals, with great and good looking characters, quite funny, cute and amusing, but at times serious and very emotional, as especially in episode 7, which is peak of season 1.
So, I liked the anime, and I recommend it, especially if you are not so much annoyed by the love triangle stuff, as it is me.
The first season isn't boring like some other shonen animes, and it's not dragged out like some others either, but there's a feeling that the season just got cut short. And it's not like it just ended at an interesting point, which is often the case and common to keep the viewer in suspense. No, it just feels like the first season has been cut short.
