Review of Arakawa Under the Bridge
I haven't watched an anime this funny in a very long time. It is very enjoyable series with a wide set of weird and mentally unstable characters. I was actually a bit surprised when I found out that this anime got a 2nd season. Art: I really like the art style. It reminds me of the art style of the Monogatari series. The color palet is amazing. It gives the viewer a calm but yet unsettling feeling. The animation is smooth. Sound: I freakin love the Opening! It's calm and catchy. The visuals of the Opening are also beautiful. The ending is... ok. It's skipable and notas catchy and eye catching as the Opening. The music throughout the episodes is repetitive but still good.
Characters:
Each characters that lives under the bridge has their own unique mental issue. There is much character developement in this anime because these guys... are just a lost cause. But that whatmakes this anime so funny. If you people have seen an anime called Working!! (Wagnaria), which is another comedy anime that I like, you will know why I like this anime so much.
Recommendations:
Working!!:
- Has a large set of wacky characters
- Mis"adventures"
- Really entertaining
Bakemonogatari:
- It has the same type of comedy
- It has a very similar art style
- It has the same color palet but a bit darker
