Review of K
The color grading, animation, and music were very nostalgic. It's very reminiscent of those Japanese PSP games that I used to be so fond of when I was in middle school. You won't hear a lot of complaints about how this show looks and sounds 'cause everything in those departments were done quite well. BUT... the story sucks. It feels rushed and none of the characters leave a huge impact on the viewer. The main character's arc felt like a cop out. In the beginning it was quite slow and chill as if we were going to get a lot more changes tothe plot but it turned out to be stagnant until later on. The way they explained the concept of the 7 kings left a lot of questions, they were also missing a couple of kings, it was also explained pretty later on. The ending and the climax were pretty underwhelming, there wasn't enough tension at all. The villain should've appeared more frequently.
Still if you just wanna kill time, listen to a good sound track while watching some anime tiddies and cool visuals sometimes this ain't too bad.
