Killing Bites
キリングバイツ
Studio: LIDENFILMS
Synopsis
After unknowingly participating in a kidnapping, college student Yuuya Nomoto finds his friends brutally murdered by Hitomi Uzaki, the high school girl they attempted to abduct. Forced to drive her to an undisclosed location, he finds himself being wagered as the prize for a death match between two Therianthropes, superpowered human-animal hybrids created through advanced gene therapy. As one of these hybrids, Hitomi uses the speed and fearlessness she gained from her ratel genes to viciously dispatch her foe and save Yuuya from certain death. Waking up hours later hoping the whole event was only a nightmare, Yuuya realizes that he has become embroiled in a secret proxy war between four large Japanese business conglomerates, with the winner taking control of the economy. As her sole albeit unwilling investor, his life is now directly linked to Hitomi's ability to participate in underground bloodsport matches known only as Killing Bites. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

SoraSenpai★ 9The story is basically battle royale but with animals. These people are infused with specific animal DNA resulting in them being able to turn into their animal forms. Okay not the best story wise but the fighting is what really drew me into this anime. Okay I would be lying if it was 100% the fighting, a large portion of it revolved around the amount of HEAVY fan-service in this anime. Which can always boot the enjoyment of an anime as well. The art and animation was really well done. LIDENFILMS has yet to disappoint me when it comes to high quality art and animation. The openingand ending were so good. The ending was a good head banger/ running song and the op was really entertaining. The music during the show fit it perfectly as well A lot of heavy metal is a great thing when it came down to it. The characters were fantastic. Really i felt only one character did match their animals when it came to personality, each basically fit their characters perfectly. When it came to enjoyment I really loved it. The fights were better then most fights I have seen in DBZ, Naruto, Bleach etc. They were unpredictable and very well animated. Overall this was actually a decent anime to watch. I can see why the score would be swayed either high or low because of peoples tastes, but overall I think this show deserves a little more praise.
Leark★ 8Hey guys, I read the manga, i knew what i had to expect. And man, i wasn't dissapointed. This could be the best worst anime of 2018. I seriously was waiting for this anime, even though i knew it won't be something humanity wants to remember in the future. This show is utter trash and i love it. If you want to have a good time just watching boobs and people killing each other, then you are in for a hell of a ride.The Story is unimportant and just a framework for the explosive action and eroticism. The music rocks. I have to say, the music is really good, the heavy metal tunes are awesome. The fights rock. You can see them actually fighting instead of talking for half an hour. And the anime is actually funny, i didn't expect that but i had to laugh really hard a lot of times. I really enjoyed the anime. The anime is good in its own way, and shouldn't be judged bad only because it doesn't suit your taste. Don't expect anything great. Grab a beer, lean back and have fun :)
