Lycoris Recoil

Good anime, I haven't watched good original anime in a long time and not many original anime have quite interesting stories. I suggest you watch it if you are an anime connoisseur because there are very few original anime that are good and will really support the anime industry if you watch original anime, because the anime industry is experiencing turmoil such as a lack of quantity of animators, very short deadlines, etc. Which makes a lot of good anime whose broadcast was postponed for a long time due to problems in the anime industry. Thanks to the staff who work hard to create interesting stories.

This is another anime that, at the start of the season, I never expected to be this great, which is why I was greatly surprised by how much I enjoyed this. This is an action-filled, heartwarming, and emotional thrill ride. I loved the action in this anime, gunfights, hand to hand combats, the whole deal. Look, it was very unrealistic, but I can't deny how cool it was. I loved the 2 main characters and the main villain. They were very likeable, and all the banter between them was really entertaining. The friendship between the main 2 characters was very sweet. And the story, while not perfectly told, but still was really good with a few surprises along the way. The sound design was great too.

All thanks to a covert organization that trains orphan girls to become Lycoris; all-girl assassins dressed in high school uniforms who ensure Tokyo stays crime-free. Stoic Lycoris sharpshooter Takina, meets the cheery Lycoris elite agent Chisato, whose remarkable trajectory insight makes her an impossible target to shoot (Neo who?). Together, their wide-ranging missions begin.

Only 3 episodes in and Lycoris Recoil is already proving itself to be one of summer 22's best original anime series. It succeeds in blending slice-of-life, comedy, and action, and its vibrant animation perfectly contrasts with the story's underlying dark aspects. The best selling point of the show besides the neat action scenes (and the occasional action movie references), is the dynamic between the main characters Chisato and Takina as they're literally each other's opposite.

If you're up for some gun-toting girl spies, foil characters, and Loli hackers, you'll certainly gonna love this one.

Watched only the first episode so far and honestly this is very nice !

The plot is very simple and the characters are engaging enough, I really dig the mix of genres : action, slice of life, comedy, it works really well.

This looks very promising !

Plus the end credits song is a banger ;)

Lycoris Recoil does a decent job of finding a middle ground between slice of life and action. The main characters are likeable and very interesting, almost every character plays a real role in the story. It wouldn't be a show about stopping crime without a villain! This anime's villain is what helps make it a successful and suspenseful story.

Now the overall concept of cute girls with guns working behind the scenes to stop crime isn't unique to this anime but Lycoris Recoil does it the best out of any show I've seen. Without any spoilers I will say however the final two episode's are lackluster and disappointing. For a anime I actually enjoy this definitely hurts the shows rating in my honest opinion. 7/10.
