Review of Record of Grancrest War
This is my first time ever writing a review and the main reason along with many other reviewers is due to the amount of hate this show is getting. Most of the people leaving bad reviews either didn't watch the whole show or are simply overly critical pieces of crap. Many of them think an anime has to abide by a specific list of criteria and thus rate it accordingly. Many people seem that they can't just enjoy an anime for what it is. This show is incredible! It takes about 10 episodes for it to really get good but it's worth it. Now I'llbe honest the score isn't anything special and the animation and fight scenes aren't anything spectacular. It just wasn't that popular of a manga really and so didn't get as much funding. Other people talk about how the pacing is awful. News flash...it was clearly done on purpose. It gives the show a sense of urgency and makes it that much more exciting. There's also just so much going on politically, tactically, etc that the show jumps around making sure the viewer can understand the hectic Ness of this world.
Please! Please! Give this show a chance and enjoy it for what it is. It's such a shame these days that truly great anime don't get the hype they deserve where as incredibly average shows like AOT get unwavering priase even though it has way worse pacing and character development than this show.
Thanks!
