Reviews of this series by the user Jeoffrey (3)

Shou (2015) (S01) 

English This season introduces a few new interesting characters and the original characters are still just as great. I really looked forward to each new episode so I am certain of the rating I will award it. This highly enjoyable second season is just perfect in terms of suspense, plot, and characters. So I am perfectly satisfied and I am looking forward to July 2015… ()

Ten (2015) (S02) 

English I can safely say that I still enjoy this show immensely... ()

Ketsu (2016) (S03) 

English I am sorry, but I cannot agree this time. I think this show still has its charm, even if it is, as a fellow reviewer writes: "a sequel of a sequel of a sequel." I am certainly not bored of the characters either; I still like them just as much, some even more as this anime series progresses. Certainly, the first season was the best; it had an incredibly interesting narrative flow, a cool narrative style that only Baccano! could match, amazing characters, a great setting, and a very good ending. They could have finished there, but why? There was plenty of material for a sequel, so why not use it? Sure the other seasons were weaker, however, the nostalgic magic still worked on me. I enjoyed every reunion with one of my favorite characters, every answer I got and I looked forward to the next episodes. Furthermore, even when I happened to doubt and even considered giving the season one less star, there was always some episode that convinced me not to. Similarly, the first episode of Durarara!!×2 and the "meeting at the same table" where some interesting things were discussed and where I smiled quite often convinced me to persevere and that I would enjoy it again for the fourth time.
