Platonic Chain · review

★
Top reader Jan 2, 2023 · 2 min read
7 /10

It's extremely hard to judge Platonic Chain. It provides one of the most dystopian premises of all time, and yet it centers itself around the general mundanities of teenage life in Shibuya, with the same kind of tone you would have in most other slice of life comedies. It has a very unique sense of humour that sometimes lands and sometimes doesn't, but either way you will have fun. Each episode is technically 6 minutes long, but the actual episode content is only 3 minutes once you subtract the opening and ending. Within those 3 minutes is batshit insanity. If you know how much I hateCGI animation, you might wonder why I like this anime so much. I hate Berserk 2016, I'm not the biggest fan of Dorohedoro, so why this? I love that this looks like a forgotten Dreamcast game. I love the soundtrack so much. The various openings and endings are all in my playlists. The fact that this takes place in Shibuya and makes actual reference to things and events in Shibuya's landscape and history is also a plus.

It gets kind of dull after a while, but this is definitely worth the watch if you wanna see some truly inspired shit. Doing research on this anime is hell. Trying to find out things about it as a non-Japanese speaker is truly a challenge. If you find anything new, let me know.
