Review of Lazarus
7.5/10 ~ Fun ride but not as deep as it pretends to be Lazarus is a bit of a weird show, its pretty fast pace the whole way through and before you know it, its just over. Great animation and music follows you the entire way. The story however had a pretty interesting premise and the show is riddled with high philosophy and religious undertones. Here is where my praise stops, the story itself with a good premise just kinda falls flat and turns into a hide and seek. The characters are not that deep and honestly are a bit cardboardcutouty, and they even managed togo on sidequests during this race to the finishline in a 13 ep series... bit of an odd choice all around.
Oddly enough all I could think of while watching this was "where is laplace's box". Despite this the show gave me the feel of Cowboybebop+BlackLagoon+Jormungand
If Cowboybebop is one of your favorite animes of all time you will probably find yourself at home here. For everyone else the show is short enough where I would be surprised if people just down right hate this one, its just fun and not amazing by any means.
