What's your ACTUAL opinion this anime/manga. I keep hearing these half baked opinions that just seem to be siding with the majority without any actual reason. I wanna hear peoples actual opinion, don't be shy.
Akane a best
Started very strong, continued decently until the end of Tokyo Blade arc where it gradually fell off a cliff after.
never watched it
>>43344 It actually falls off a cliff after private arc.
>>43307 >suffers from Aka growing bored with his stories, his cynical view of love and women, his pretentious greentexting, and his lack of planning except for the finale (and JUST the finale) >Aqua is one of the worst protagonists I have seen. He does nothing, pretends he did something ("I'm tired of my revenge so I delude myself into thinking it ended the very same year I make actual progress"), and after getting his black stars he becomes a mystery box and also a drama queen who goes on all the time about deserving to die despite doing jackshit >Ruby is a disappointment and I wonder why Aka bothered with twins if one was doomed to be a side character until she suddenly get focus, and then she throws everything into disarray because exactly she got it so late >Akane is the best character but it's a shame how she's mostly a plot device and her whole Ai personality thing is underused
>>43307 A lot of good setups but poor payoff each time
>>43446 Akane acting as Ai served its purpose in Lovenow. Unless you wanted her to play the role of Ai so it could serve as a parallel and foil to her character like Aka tried to do with Ruby there's no reason to say that was underused.
>>43485 It just seems weird the whole thing of Ruby "surpassing Ai" yet there's no direct competition with the skinwalker outside the pity audition.
>>43388 The story finally gets going with Private arc and we get the whole Dark Ruby thing which was shaping up to be interesting. Then at the end of the next arc it just kind of stops and is never mentioned again. The whole story starts being janky after that.
>>43307 I like when the story talks about the japanese industry to detail and the drama but then all that is ruined because the story then reminds you that it's an in world isekai which is fucking retarded. Hacka should've just started the story straight up with Aqua and Ruby being born to Ai and none of the reincarnatiin nonsense that drags the story down.
>>43485 >Akane acting as Ai served its purpose in Lovenow. Aka still brought it up again when she went Ai mode after Aqua passed out, then with the stuff about Ai's revived emotions when Akane was figuring out Kamiki and then later when she said she cut her hair because she didn't needed to be Ai anymore, it feels like such a waste for it to never be used in any meaningful way, either by helping Ruby understand Ai or by going full mommy mode to try and get Aqua to stop his plans or trying to bait Kamiki
Everyone opinion based as fuck.
