Gleipnir

It's rare I don't finish a show. However, Gleipnir isn't worth my time. I watched the first 6 episodes and I'm convinced half the screen time is spent on close ups of muscles and tendons on the female characters.

The plot is practically non-existent. Someone came up with what they thought was a good idea and somehow got paid before fleshing it out in the slightest.

The voice acting is over the top. Moreso than most anime. The characters are tropes with no personality or growth. The soundtrack wasn't bad but that doesn't make it watchable.

All in all, it's sub-par. It may appeal to some if other reviews are anything to go by but I'd suggest only watching the first 2 episodes before making up your mind. It really doesn't change after that. There's no "pay-off" moment that makes the slog worth it.

Premise, something gives a bunch of people the ability to transform into a whole host of things or just modify their bodies to enhance them.

Off the bat, we'll spoil this; 1-4 and 10-13 are all you need to watch of this show, literally the middle chunk gets made irrelevant at the end. Also, doubt this is getting a season 2.

I watched this on the premise it was a DARK and DISTURBING anime, it's not. It's an adult anime, so it does push those boundaries a bit, a lot more gore, but no real nudity, some inappropriate sex content, but again censorship in the way the hair falls over parts. It's super tame and as edgy as Blink 182 in the 90s.

The problem is, the whole ending kind of negates everything. They threw together an interesting mystery that didn't really have clues for the audience to play along and solve themselves.

Acting's fine, animation/art is great, and the dog from of the main protagonist is adorable. I love dogs. Don't watch. You'll fall asleep.

The anime is really good. It has some dark theme and it gets interesting very fast. I like their creativity and the way that tells the story. 100% you need to read the manga to understand the story better but you can enjoy it even if you don't want to read the manga. It's a strange and sexual anime and that's why I like it and my girlfriend also found it interesting.

Worst anime series i ever watched..idiot main character..to weak to call it a monster..maybe a puppet!

I first heard about this series when its anime adaptation was announced and I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. This is one of those shows that is best to go in blind, knowing absolutely nothing about it. This is one of those shows that you have to watch to the end before you decide to critique anything. There were a lot of things that despite small, I questioned because they didn't seem to make much sense but clearly they knew what they were doing because it all ended up being answered in the end. The animation is incredible with some of the coolest and most intense fight scenes I've seen in a while when it comes to anime and despite being just a 12 episode anime, it provides a lot of depth and character development for our protagonist. I would have given this a 10 but there were some parts that were pretty cliche and there was a lot of unnecessary sexual scenes. Aside from that, the plot is properly fleshed out and nothing is too overdone. Not sure why people had a problem with it but the characters were well done, the plot is creative and fresh, and it doesn't try to be unique. On top of that, it constantly kept me on the edge of my seat and I was never bored. If you're into fast-paced shows, I recommend this. Give it a watch :)))
