Lycoris Recoil

Good animation (as always with these summer anime), with a good soundtrack, i like most of them during my watching experience.

The characters, are surprisingly good, the main cast (Chisato and Takina) are very "distinct" in terms of personality, and have a meaningful backstory, enough for me to get invested

Nice action, i like most of the shooting, especially with the main cast as mentioned earlier

The story, it's good, definitely isn't innovative any means, it's basically like a thriller-esque story, with some depth.

The only main flaw, i had is although the action is nice, some of it are quite confusing in their own, without watching at least the first 3 episodes, you won't understand why the main cast is being badass

Overall, This anime is charming in its own merits.

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.

One of the best anime ever I seen. My friends also a big fan of Lycoris Recoil. I recommend every one to watch this one of my favourite anime, No words left to tell, mind blowing, I hate animies before, but after watching this I am adicted to this. I eagerly waiting for season 2. Season 2 must come that's my wthat th I request A-1 studios to release season 2. Then only it will be full filled to viewers. Season 1 has a wonderful happy ending. But the main villian is still alive. If season 2 come it will be full filled to viewers, If season 2 released I definitely tell I am the most happiest person in the world.

This series is set in a future where there is no crime in Tokyo... at least not officially. In reality a group of school-girl assassins, called Lycoris, tackle criminal threats. One such operative is Takina Inoue; after an incident where she was considered to have endangered others. After this she is recruited by Chisato Nishikigi, an elite agent working out of a café. Chisato has the ability to dodge bullets but refuses to kill anybody. This sees then facing various threats; including terrorist Majima and a hacker known as 'Robota' due to the headgear he wears.

I thought this was fun series. There is plenty of action as well as some humour and likeable protagonists. The story progresses well after setting up the characters. The action is fairly dynamic and there is a good sense of danger even if the antagonists fall into pantomime villain territory at times. Away from the action there is some slice of life showing the girls off duty; this provides some more character depth. The character designs are good, as is the animation. Overall I'd recommend this to fans of the girls-with guns subgenre.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

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 ;)
