Isuca

DedPanda★ 1

What's up MAL community, here I am bringing you another review about how bad something is. Seriously this one deserves a bad review. Isuca is quite possibly the worst anime I have ever seen like of all time. I know my review of Absolute Duo painted that series as bad but this one makes that show look like a masterpiece. By now you all probably know what this show is about thanks to the effort of those who actually tried to write a review without wanting to puke so I won't get into the details, I'm just going to tell you why you shouldn't bother. Story- 1 The story seems like it is nothing but recycled retools of series that already exist and is mashed together into one anime that is supposed to make you appreciate the verse. Take Kekkaishi, elements of supernatural harems like DxD or Shinmai (and I make this comparison very loosely), the importance of kissing like from Sekirei and gore that doesn't make sense as to why it is censored and that is basically Isuca in a nutshell with a shotty plot. But really, there is no story. Art - 4 The art manages to skate by but only so much as to make this tragedy only slightly visually appearing. Sound - 5 The soundtrack is okay but there isn't really anything in terms of sound that makes this anime even remotely memorable Character - 1 The main heroine is supposed to be some head of a clan but she takes so much shit for just existing that you wonder why she doesn't just tell everyone to off themselves. The main male is like a super hesitant dense ass fuck with no balls and he seems completely useless unless he becomes a plot device. There is no real character growth either so the characters pretty much stay the same throughout. Also, there is like a copy of Origami from Date A Live in this series: emotionless and ready to rape the MC at any moment she can but ironically is like the best character to me. Enjoyment - 1 If I remotely enjoyed this series, it lasted for a solid second. Overall - 1 A harem that isn't really a harem that has no real substance for a story and makes you question why money was wasted on something like this. Isuca is the worst anime of 2015 and watching makes you want to drill a nail in your head or something. All in all, do not waste your time.

"Masterpiece" is what I would describe anything else compared to Isuca. I felt like the time I wasted watching this show was better off watching paint dry or some other nonsense I could come up with. This is something you need to stay away from. The writing will make you cringe because of how cheesy it is, the animation is horrid, and characters are just disgraceful and pathetic. Story (2/10): The plot is nonsensical and downright redundant. It had the grounds to be a somewhat decent plot, yet all their creativity was used to instead put the main character in ridiculous and perverted situations. Thestory itself was easy to follow, it wasn't a jumbled mess, but rather the plot was executed so poorly that you just seem to lose all interest. Art/Sound (3/10): The Animation was pathetic, just by the opening of how Asano pulls out his sword, you instantly know that the animation would be jagged. If I were to give this show any props it would be the animation. That just means that's how high the standard would ever be, in the lowly disappointing range. The sound was equally as bad. The OST was dead to me, none of it even clicked while I was watching this show. That could also just be that my brain was working so hard to understand why I was wasting my time on something as horrendous as this. Character (3/10): Instead of giving you an in depth analysis of each characters, just take all the generic harems you've ever watched, and remember how those specific characters were. Chances are they are infinitely better than any character this show has to offer. There is one character though that stuck to me like a leach, and that was Tamako. I could write an entire essay and you still would not be able to fully grasp my frustration about this character. I love cat girls as much as the next guy, but this is someone that will annoy you to no end. Enjoyment (0/10) - Usually, to escape the harsh realities of doing work or anything productive for that matter, I go and watch anime. This show made me want to write a 10 page thesis on how grass grows. The only reason I did not drop this show is due to the fact that I'm a completionist and it would bother me that I wasn't able to finish it. In the end it was sheer willpower that kept me going. If you do want to suffer and watch this show, I recommend that you lower your expectations and your brain capacity to the point where anything can be considered interesting. That is the only way to finish this disaster. Overall (2/10): As I stated before, you will find it more intriguing to watch paint dry. Go outside or take a bath, just stay away from this show. It might be good if you're into the Ecchi genre, but why bother? I'm willing to bet that a Hentai out there has a better plot, character, animation, etc.
