Review of School Days
After all the controversy surrounding this show I just had to sit down and watch this to understand was it was all about, and I must say this show had a lot of good, but also some really messed up things... Story: So school days is another harem anime involving a main male role and a bunch of girls that love him. Ok that said, I'm gonna say that for some reason the story didnt really appeal to me that much, maybe I'm too used to watching shows that involve some sort of supernatural event because school days felt like one of the most down toearth shows I've seen. The events that lead to the infamous "nice boat" ending seemed all preventable from the beginning, but I guess thats what makes school days such an interesting show.
Art: The animation in school days was very solid and had some very nice colours in it. there really isnt much else to say about this.
Sound: The sound was also decent, I'm sorry I cant really give any more details on it but I just dont have much more to say.
Character: OK, this is what I had the most trouble trying to rate...School Days has some of the most...stupid, no, genius, no...I cannot really decide what to think of the characters, all the events of this anime were preventable yet the main protagonist Makoto is probably the most hated anime character I know, I was thinking on giving this section a 5/10 but after thinking things through I realized that for a show to have made me feel such powerful and strong hatred feelings for a character that isnt even real to begin with, School Days must have done a masterpiece work with their characters. And it is not only Makoto, Sekai IMO was the reason this whole thing event started, Makoto was just retarded enough to make things escalate like they did. I give this section both a 5/10 for giving me characters that piss me off so much and 10/10 for being able to make me express such feelings >_>
Enjoyment: I'm not gonna lie I ended up enjoying the show in the end...actually I specially ended up enjoying the end lol ^_^
Overall School Days is indeed an anime that has a lot of controversy over it but like they say controversy sells and it did in this case, I strongly recommend everyone to watch this show since the opinion of people towards this show are so varied and so many that in the end this review is just another drop in a big bucket of water.
