Let me preface by saying that this review will just be a wall of text for now as I am at my internship and am not going to look for anime screenshots on here. I will also say that this review is a mix of subjective opinions and objective opinions. Objective being the story quality and such theyre not really objective but I have no other way to differentiate them. Scroll down for a TLDR. 510 Im not going to talk about the premise here I like jumping into anime blind so for others who want to do so as well this is just for you . Its a very simple story and very obviously shounen. Mostly consisting of fighting and getting better really nothing special. The world is pretty interesting though with fire departments all being completely different and having their own secrets. Like always though the villains motives are dumb as hell and just there to be villains. Its realy nothing special and thats good I dont care its a battleshounen. 810 This show is full of characters and especially the 8th fire department has a great dynamic. Shinra and Arthur are both dumb as hell and I love dumb characters so their rivalry antics are extremely fun to watch. The other characters in the squad are cool too although Makis one and only joke is very stupid. Aside from the 8th department the other departments also have fun characters like Hibana. She has big tits. best guy is Benimaru love him and his squad 810 This is where Fire Force really shines the fight scene animations are top notch and shine all the way through in every single one. Just watch the first episode and be amazed. Shinras jetfuckingengine feet look incredible and all explosions look beautiful too. The reason the animation does not get a 10/10 is because of the scenes outside of combat. This is where its very obviously the Shaft people animating/directing it. If you didnt know many people from Shaft moved to David Productions and worked on Fire Force. Youve got this awkward conversations where theres just a static image of them far away blank faces and weird close ups straight out of the monogatari series. Theres a lot of talking so youll see this a lot. I dont particularly mind as I love Shaft but it is still awkward and can be at least decreased to a degree. 910 Yes The sound Its good. its good sound. The voice actors deliver their lines well I really have nothing to complain about. Shinras fire sound are just jet engine how cool is that? Fucking cool. Its fucking cool. The music is awesome too its got this orchestral feel to it and an awesome leitmotif that keeps coming back and I fucking love leitmotifs. Its hype the OST is hype. Thank you. Goodbye. tldr? Good shit I definitely recommend watching it. The battles are fun and cool the animation is fluid the soundtrack is fun the voice actors are good the world is interesting the story is not. Thank you for reading this shitty review
