Saiki K Its an incredibly hilarious and silly comedy that is almost guaranteed to make you laugh. This review is just me talking about what I like in Saiki k so if that doesnt interest you feel free to stop reading. If you havent watched the show however hopefully this gives you enough motivation to start it. Characters Saiki k is a show with an incredibly hilarious cast of characters the foundation for a good comedy. Each character except Saiki is a troupe that is taken to their incredibly illogical extreme . Nendou is so dumb that saiki cannot read his mind. And Hairo is so passionate that he literally creates heat and fire. This makes for incredibly dramatic but never exaggerated character interaction. well they are exaggerated in a way but never forced This cast of characters more so than being funny by themselves play off of each other in a really silly witty and humourous way. You could take any 34 characters from the cast of this show even without the mc put them together and it would lead to a gut wrenching session of laughter. Kaido is probably my favourite out of the entire cast followed by koboyasu teruhashi and that magician dude. I love every single one of the characters in the cast. except teruhashis brother that guy is weird And if you watch the show you probably will as well. Humour Saiki k is a comedy that isnt even close to generic. Most of the jokes land for me and there are no repetitive joke formulas. The repeating jokes are also done with a new set up each time making them funnier each time you see it. Saiki k has some parody elements that are funny as well. The jokes come in at a very fast pace as well never letting a joke overstay its welcome and constantly making me laugh. I literally laughed so much that I had to use my inhaler at times But the main allure of the comedy is that it is so over the top silly fun and lighthearted. And it always works with the incredible cast. Added to this saiki plays it off in such a nonchalant way that it somehow becomes even funnier. Let me quote a line said by a magician in the show on why he became an illusionist As everything in my life dissapeared I realised that making things disappear must be my talent. And he went on to become a magician. Its not as funny out of context but if you found that even slightly funny I highly recommend watching this amazing comedy. Presentation / Execution Saiki ks already great base is improved by the sound a lot. The voice acting perfectly fits everything . The silliness of the show and characters are all represented by the voice acting. The music is also really fucking good in making jokes funnier. For example for a stupidly funny sob story an over the top overly generic sad song track plays for a layer of satire making the scene twice as funny. A lot of the tracks are really silly like the trumpet bike soundtrack or really over the top and dramatic . Some of them are just normal ones that are supposed to set the mood. my fav is koboyasus theme The opening and ending are also basically memes by the end of the series. Overall I can confidently say that the sound of this show is amazing. The artstyle character designs and colours are incredibly charming but the animation is nothing special quite cheap if anything. So solid presentation in the end. Other There is basically no plot in the show its a comedy after all. Saikis powers are very inconsistent. There are basically no themes tackled and when the show tries to be serious it really doesnt work. But none of these take away from how funny this show is. The show is also incredibly rewatchable so if you ever feel down then you can put on an episode of saiki k and it will be as funny as the first time. The dub is also really good one of the best ive seen. So why is it a must watch ? Because it is either a source of near endless enjoyment or just 5 10 minutes of your time wasted. Due to this I think everyone should at least try Saiki k.
