Review of Hyouka
This show...left me speechless. This is probably one of the best shows I've ever sat down and watch. All the deer steriotypes, all the mindless bulls***, all the "plot" and terrible characters, nonexistent! This show is original, a one of a kind, a true masterpiece. The plot -Hōtarō Oreki is a freshman whose motto is "If I don't have to do something, I won't;If I have to, I'll do it quickly." Because of his sister's request, he is asked to join the Classics Club to save it from being abolished. Other members that join soon after are Eru Chitanda, Satoshi Fukube and Mayaka Ibara. TheACTUAL review - This show is slice of life and mystery done right. It has mysteries that make you think, characters that makes the show what it is, and a calm feel that lets you relax from action animes or crappy harems (MM! everybody). This is the prime example of anime done right!
The art - Kyoto Animations done it again. Flawless art that sets the calm mood and really makes the serious moments stand out instead of subjecting to CG (Don't lose your way, Trigger).
The sound - I like both opening and ending themes for this anime. I could listen to them all day long on repeat with the calm and soothing ost.
The characters - Where do I begin? The main character goes through excellent character development that little by little changes his way of life. I can honestly say that he was my favorite character, even if I was laughing at his attempt to not using energy and failing every time Chitanda became curious. Satoshi was probably the best male best friend in any anime ever, even if I wanted to punch him in episode 21.
Overall - 9/10 Watch this anime. You won't regret it. Hoping for another season.
