Review of Amnesia

I guess my review is a little bias since I am utterly obsessed with this otome game when it was released. YES this anime was based on an otome game where you play the main heroine and you get to choose a guy's route, win his heart and live happily ever after with him. With that said, this show is definitely not for everyone and if you have not played the game I doubt you will understand this anime nor even continue to watch it because it'll just get confusing as each episode progresses. Also, I believe this anime was adopted mainly as a game franchiseto satisfy its overwhelming fans.

Alright so MC character is supposed to be you. They didn't gave her a name in the show because in the game the person playing it names the MC as herself. I noticed some reviews were complaining about this, and although it is a little frustrating this is just how most otome games are. Deal with it.

The Plot is a helluva topsy turvy wtf moments but again, if you play the game, it all makes sense. I respect that they followed almost every single thing that happened in the game in each guy's route. In the game the MC is definitely bland and doesn't talk much, it's because Orion does most of the thinking for her, and her dialogue are mostly choices you pick on how to respond to the guy youre playing. It is definitely interesting how they put together all the scenes that are exactly on each of the game's route so I do commend the animators for that.

Music was great, the intro and the bg music are fantastic, even Ukyo's theme got me mesmerized. All the characters are on point and I'm glad they used the same voice actors as the ones they have in the game.

My only gripe is that they did almost two episodes for each of the guys except Kent, which only has one! where is justice on that?! and they sort of cut Orion in most of the scenes. It could have been better if he's with the MC most of the time to avoid the annoying blandness on MC's reaction each time she goes to another parallel world and restarts her amnesia.

OKAY SO OVERALL, I definitely enjoyed this show only because I played the game and enjoyed the game to heart. BUT IF YOU ARE NOT AN AMNESIA GAME OTOME FAN, this is probably not for you or you would probably hate this so much your eyebrows will unify to one. It's confusing af so for better viewing I recommend playing the game first before indulging on the show. ^^
