Review of Blood Blockade Battlefront

This looked like a really interesting anime from the cover, and from the first few episodes, I thought it was too. BUT, it was too jumbled. It had a good thing going, the only problem was how hard it was to follow. Story: I gave it a low score in this section because of how scrambled and hard to follow it was. I had a hard time understanding the powers in this show. From the blood thingys to the main character's eyes, it was all too difficult to follow. Although it didn't really have much of a plot and it might be unfair to grade iton this aspect if the anime can't even properly lay out the world's mechanics-whether it's filler based or not- then you can't really give the story aspect a good grade. Thus, if the story/world isn't good, the anime is most likely not that enjoyable.

Art & Sound:
I actually liked the ending song, was pretty nice, but I'm no good at these ratings.

Character:
The characters were quite enjoyable. Although it was hard to follow the story and world mechanics, the relationships between these characters were pretty easy and clear. The characters were nicely made and their attributes really helped with the comedy aspect of this story. The characters were the only thing bumping the overall and enjoyment score from a 3 to a 4.

Enjoyment and Overall:
Like mentioned before, the characters were really enjoyable. Watching the characters' reactions to the situation and each other was quite fun, but the story wasn't very entertaining. The world and how it worked was hard to understand, which took away a lot from the enjoyment factor.

Would I recommend this anime? I really don't know. It has some good points, and the style isn't to my liking but it could be yours. If you like, say, Cowboy Bebop or Gintama, you actually might find this show more enjoyable to me, whereas I wasn't much of a fan of either and dropped both series. To add on, I didn't watch Kekkai Sensen & Beyond, so from all I know that season could be really great, but then again I don't know. So I might have to end up changing this section, but for now, Kekkai Sensen is something I might recommend depending on the person, although in most cases I would probably not recommend.

In Short:
If you like filler anime this might be something you can consider, if you're willing to ignore the confusing details on how this odd world works. If on the other hand, you enjoy plot filled animes and care a lot about their structures, don't even think about watching this.
