Originally from a manga
バクマン。
the title literally means gambler
General ★★★★★
Even though I've already read the manga, the Anime still keeps me excited
That's how good it is
Just like the manga, every episode ends at exciting point
Story ★★★★★
Both main characters had their heroines in the start
The effort they put into the their work alone the way attracted many other female characters
and they never changed their heart
The psychological descriptions of characters are nice (the story writer really put a lot of effort into this)
As for the main Story
those who never watch/read this Anime might think there isn't much to tell in drawing manga story
That's not true, every difficulty they have overcome, another one soon pops up
I'm not gonna discuss about the difficulties they have overcame, You will know what I mean once you watch/read it
CG ★★★★☆
One small negative thing I have to say is, the Anime production is too focused on speed
Environment and Character expression are not detail enough(exp: light/dark effect)
The manga does much better performance on this part
Altho it's two different platform, hard to compare
Other than that, the anime quality is good
Design ★★★★★
You might be familiar with this drawing style
yes, the art is done by the same artist of Death note, Hikaru no go etc
and like all his works, story is done by someone else
As for bakuman, it is the same writer who wrote death note
Music ★★★★☆
No noticeable BGM, but I really like the OP and 1st ED
Especially the OP lyric uses strive, dream as theme, really nice
See you again on season 3
