Charlotte Anime Review

Hey guys !! Today we are going to review anime entitled Charlotte.
Charlotte is a Japanese television anime series written by Jun Maeda produced by P.A.Works and Aniplex and directed by Yoshiyuki Asai. This anime released in Japan between July 5 and September 27, 2015.


This anime is already far predicted by the audience will be booming, perhaps because of this anime story writer is Jun Maeda.
Charlotte tells about a group of children who have a unique super powers, like disappeared, fly, control the time and others. Yuu Otosaka, a child who has the ability to take over another person's body for 5 seconds, intends to use his power to live a high school life with ease. However, he was caught by Nao Tomori and forced to move to Hoshinoumi Academy, where he and other council members have to help students who have difficulty controlling their ability.

Like Plastic Memories, the use of the name "Charlotte" in the title is very unique, and gives a mysterious aura that surrounds this anime. Moreover, the name "Charlotte" there is no connection with the name of a character or a synopsis. This factor successfully entrapped anyone who was curious (including me) to follow this series until the mystery about the name was answered.

Almost all works of P.A Works have high-level image quality. Each scene brought a remarkable admiration. Every little detail in the picture with great amaze, for example stars or comets that we often see in this anime I think is very cool. The scenery and background of Charlotte is also very fascinating and I admit that this studio always gives art that never disappoint in every of its work.

Jun Maeda also plays a role in the cultivation of music and backsound of this anime. And the result, quite satisfactory. Her opening entitled "Bravely You" was sung by Lia. The fitting lyric, the sound of the distinctive Lia is a perfect mix. Then, ending entitled "Yake Ochinai Tsubasa" was sung by Aoi Tada. This is the best ending in Summer season 2015. This ending makes me always not willing to leave this anime whenever I finished watching it. And the video from the ending is simple, just blend the image with the theme of Nao with a beautiful sprinkling of stars in it. In this anime itself there are many Insert songs as sung by ZHIEND idol band from Nao. And the idol of this anime, Yusarin and her sister, Misa singing some insert song and ending on episodes 3 and 4.

Unfortunately there is no season 2 of this anime. With 13 episodes, for me still not enough for this one anime. The story of each person who has different powers, makes this story interesting. The story is also dramatic and emotional, even I was carried away emotion when watching this anime, because many scenes are so touching.

The story in Charlotte actually has a huge potential, the ending in this anime seems unremarkable and over-imposed.There is no typical climactic moment in the last episode, or touching moments like ending Angel Beats (anime often associated with Charlotte). Or is it because we were too hopeful that Charlotte would be anime feels like Angel Beats that has ending could make the audience burst into tears? May be. In other words, Charlotte failed to give the ending as expected because of excessive expectations imposed on this anime from the beginning.

The main factor that makes Charlotte associated with Angel Beats is because of the same writers and studios, Jun Maeda and P.A Works. Since the first announcement of the animation, anime lovers have begun to make expectations that Charlotte will become anime with epic story and can make the audience ride on the roller coaster feels. When the animation was aired, scenes like the past of Nao and her brother, the death of Ayumi, Yu who went crazy, the actual events told by Shunsuke, and Kumagami's death became epic moments that made anime lovers hope that the ending would be the most epic moment in this anime, beyond the moments mentioned earlier.

But what happened? No epic moments occurred in the last episode. The last episode seemed flat. There is not even an exciting fight scene. In addition, Yu who lost his memory did not remember about Nao. Gone are the hopes of anime lovers who expect a romantic scene in the reunion of these two characters.

Apart from that, Charlotte has enough qualities to be called as one of the best anime in 2015. But is it worth mentioning as the best? Probably not.

Clearly, Charlotte is a very worthy anime to watch. I also do not hesitate to recommend it to you who have not watched it. However I will remind you not to expect a memorable ending or romantic heart-warming scene of this anime.

This anime is perfect for the story lovers written by Jun Maeda and you can compare it with some anime that written by Jun. This anime can be an interesting recommendation and spectacle.

Anime Reviews : Kuroko No Basuke

Ever heard Kuroko No Basuke?
If not, it looks like you have to watch this anime !!

Image Source: http://kurokonobasuke.wikia.com/
An anime by Tadatoshi Fujimaki themed basketball sport adapted from his well-known Manga, with an anime name that is made similar to his manga that is Kuroko no Basuke.

Kuroko no Basuke is the first season released in April 2012, the second season released in October 2013 and the third season released in January 2015. There are 75 episodes in this anime divided into three seasons, each season with 25 episodes of video.

This anime tells the story of the basketball team. Teikou Junior high school basketball team is a team that won three consecutive years because of the five great players, with their amazing and unique abilities. However, after graduating from junior high school, this teammate, known as the "Miracle Generation" split up and now considers each other as a rival.

The storyline of Kuroko no Basuke is not about Teikou Junior High School, but Seirin Senior High School basketball team and discussed is not just the 5 of Miracle Generation player but more about the 6th generation of Miracle Generation, Kuroko Tetsuya who will join Seirin Senior High School basketball team.

Kuroko no Basuke is an exciting sport anime to watch. The audience will be invited to enjoy the thrill of their basketball match.
The storyline of this anime is interesting because all the explanations are simple, starting from the high school basketball team that will compete, the main characters and even the support. Art of this anime's characters are quite good and not rigid, although have to move fast and agile during the match.

For coloring slightly pungent but is also suitable for character and place background.

The startling story begins with an unusual main character, a rather unique narrative perspective, to an unpredictable storyline. A fast tempo and the focus of the story also was very cool to be enjoyed. When compared with Slam Dunk, in terms of graphics Kuroko No Basuke is better and it is a necessity because with advances in technology is no reason to lose the image quality with anime 90s like Slam Dunk. In terms of stories, both have different points as well as more points. But if Slam Dunk is too broad and too detailed, Kuroko No Basuke is more efficient so the tempo is faster. Although in terms of skill and games there is excessive, but the packaging of a neat graphic display makes us unconscious and seen can be practiced, but it is not possible such as copying skills, shots 3 points from a very long distance and others, it's just the packaging of the display makes me not too concerned about it. Overall, this anime is really cool.

In essence, this anime is exciting, maybe more exciting than other basketball anime. The depiction of the character is also cool, especially with hair colors that is too flashy in every champion. So, without the introduction of each character, I think you will immediately know which players have greatness above average, can be seen from hair colors, the most striking color, it means he has the best skill.

Well, share this post if you like and want to share to your friends. Give your comment in the comments field if you have any criticism or suggestion for this blog. Hopefully this article will be useful for others who have never watched Kuroko no Basuke. Because personally, before downloading anime, I often seek information first about the anime that I will watch. For example by searching and reading reviews or synopsis of anime related.

Thank you very much for you who have read this post and see you in the next review.
