Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Irishchatter I honestly thought the characters and the music were pretty great in this. Although I did find that i was lost midway of the series regarding the storyline, it's possibly because there were too many characters added to the anime or just the fact it was just my way of thinking. Who knows? lolAnyways i do have to say it was sad in the end. Inori was leaving Shu and the fact she wasn't around with him 5 years later with the reunion dinner he had with the friends. I suppose the apocalypse should've been longer in that case if they both wanted to be together for longer. Which of course didn't happen and anyways if the apocalypse was longer, it would still continue to destroy and crystallize humanity. By the way, the crystallization was absouletely breathtaking in the anime. I honestly didn't see it like a threat but rather an appreciation to the anime artist's who have done a phenomenal job on getting the detail of the crystals right!Even though this anime didn't make me cry or think it was the best, it was quite nice to watch especially if you are into apocalyptic movies or series! I definately recommend you watching this to get a trill of a apocalypse!

Wanderer I've been a die hard code geass fan and was looking something similar to that anime so i came across guilty crown and decide to give it a go without checking any reviews and spoilers. First of all the opening theme song is really good and the first episode of guilty crown made me nostalgic and reminds me of code geass but as soon as the show progressed,it literally become awful. I feel like it's going at too high pace,lots of plot hole,and the development of most of the character was beyond any logic.-CONTAIN SPOILERS FROM HERE ON- And creator of the show was really unfair to the protagonist shu,first made him an orphan,then make him forget everything about his sister, then made him fall in love with a girl whom he would eventually lose at the end,made him trust a friend who would betray him later,give him power of kings and take away the power with sacrifice of his one hand,gives him cancer stone over his handsome face for sometime and at the last make him blind.Really what type of ending was that?It was better to let shu die rather then letting him living with the pain,there could have been a happy ending but the creator said no and the end the anime in awful way with death of inori.And there is no villain in the show,everyone is good just the circumstances made them bad so eventually all r anti-heroes. i find this thing beyond any logic,i was like omg i can't take this anymore. *gai-a good guy till 70% of the show,bad guy fr 25% and rest 5% he tells why he became bad just to save the world.*mana-a character with plot holes level over 8000,she was good,she was bad,she was everything. i mean there wasn't any specific way to judge the character even i've a doubt if the creator can judge her character or not.*arisa-another mindless character,almost same as gai,good-bad mixed.*daryl-a full psycho character who tries to kill all but from inside has a good kind heart.*segai-are you ever really obsessed with light over the sky far away or even a power saving bulb?if so then ur fav character must be him.**That apple guy with void power and that old man who killed shu dads,can't remember their names but they were the worst character i've ever seen.At first place the anime should not be made,it really made me tear my beautiful hair apart because i have to watched the series of 22 episode (22minutes *22=484minutes aka 8hours 4miutes :( just because i spend 30$ on it. Only good thing was music,with no doubt it was really beautiful.points for each thing- ANIMATION-7/10. MUSIC-10/10. CHARACTERS-3/10. CHARACTERS DEVELOPMENT-3/10. PLOT-2/10. First half-5/10. second half-3/10. Ending-2/10. Romance and action-4/10. logic and explaination-1/10. That feeling of awesomeness and made you cry in this anime-1/10. AVERAGE REVIEW-4/10.

leondyt Guilty crown is the example of amazing anime deapite a few flaw(at least from my point of view,maybe tp other peoples,it's not a flaw). The music easily grabs the best place of all anime I ever watched. 11/10 Animation? Pretty good,8.8/10 Character design? The design is nice too. For me,8.3/10 Plot? A bit confusing and lots of implied thing(which may lead to confusion),and lot of unexplained things at first,but as it goes on,the plot is getting better and better. 8/10 for the plot. Ending? I wont spoil you,but personally I liked the way it ends(even though it make me shed some tears and a bit annoyed by it). Well,for ending....... 7/10. It has all thing you expect from a Romance-Action anime. The battle scene is pretty satisfying,which I give rating of 8.5/10. I'm not into romance,so I don't know how to rate it properly. But with my limited knowledge about romance,I'll give it 8/10(dont call me retard,as I said,I almost never watched any romance. In fact,I watched guilty crown because the plot,animation,and music seems promising.) The character development is pretty good,but as you would expect from an anime,not all things happen have a realistic impact to the character. Some of them is A LITTLE exaggerated. Last but not least,overall I give this anime 9/10 rating. The great animation and music makes it stand out. The plot is good,but not the best. Overall watching this anime definitely worth your time,and its a great way to kill time too :P.....

Savo I had extremely high hopes for Guilty Crown when it was first announced. The story sounded promising, especially considering the presence of the Code Geass screen-writers, the art was easy on they eyes, and it had the vibe of a classic in the making. I finished it a few days ago and came away from the show with mixed feelings. Guilty Crown has proved to be a very divisive show, suffering some of the most hatred I have seen inflicted upon a show in a long time, a view that I partially agree with, but not to the extent that many do. Now that it has finished airing, I've decided to write about my thoughts on the series as a review.Guilty Crown revolves around Ouma Shu, a socially withdrawn high-school student, who lives in a world where Japan is under the tight-fisted control of an oppressive military organization named GHQ due to an outbreak of a deadly virus ten years previously. Shu soon gains a genetic power derived from the "Void Genome" which allows him to create weapons and tools from the hearts of other people. Shu is recruited by a mysterious girl named Inori into a freedom fighting force known as Undertaker and he soon sets out to stop the GHQ.It's not the most original story idea in the world, but its a workable concept in the hands of a skilled writer. The issue that arises is the show's obsession with becoming another mega-popular genre-spanning epic in the vein of Code Geass. Two of Code Geass's scriptwriters penned the series and its painfully obvious. Similar to Code Geass, Guilty Crown is a Frankenstein of genres, slamming together everything from romance to mecha in an attempt to appeal to a wide audience. This strategy worked for Geass, GC doesn't pull it off with quite the same level of grace. The show relies heavily on stereotypical anime clichés for its characters and story and the plot shamelessly rips off other better series such as but not limited to Code Geass on numerous occasions.Through all of this, GC still manages to be a fun ride despite the chronic lack of inspiration. The main gimmick of weapons derived from the hearts of companions is a novel idea and helps create many exciting fight sequences. The action scenes rank as by far the best part of the series. The fight choreography is well-done and sets up some heart-pounding action sequences involving everything from standard shoot-outs to mecha duels.Despite an initially strong start, GC starts staggering several episodes in under the excessive use of clichés. The plot starts running out of steam at an alarming rate and defaults to standard boring anime high school antics. However, things do pick up towards the halfway point. The show's story actually becomes somewhat unpredictable in the latter half of the series, leading up to a rushed but reasonably satisfying ending.The characters are a mixed bag. Shu isn't the worst protagonist ever, but there aren't many reasons to empathize with him in the first half of the series. Many criticize Shu for being a weak-willed character, however I didn't find him to be that unlikable for all his flaws. Shu's character evolves somewhat as the series progresses and he eventually gains some backbone as things progress. The varied cast of characters that make up Undertaker and Shu's school friends is hit and miss. Some of the characters are likable, others not so much. The one thing that ties them all together is a sharp lack of decent character development. The antagonists aren't that much out of the ordinary, but are fun to root against. Special note must be given to the character of Inori, who ranks as one of the most flat and uninteresting characters I have seen in any work of fiction. Her character is little more than an emotionless piece of eye-candy that exists solely to pander. I can't help but feel GC would have vastly benefited from a more likable female lead. Overall, the cast of characters isn't that bad, but suffer from a lack of charisma and character development.The art is, in a word, gorgeous. Production I.G spared no expense in the animation and the result is awe-inspiring to look upon. Detail fills everything from the backgrounds to the characters themselves. The coloring is particularly pleasing to the eye. The fight sequences are many times a wonder to behold thanks to the detailed and fluid animation. Its quite obvious that a lot of talent went into the production of the show. Its such a shame that the story can't match up to the exceptional production values.Guilty Crown fares very well in the sound department. The opening and ending songs are pretty catchy. The background music is absolutely superb. Certain scenes in the series are elevated from mediocrity to greatness simply because of how fitting the music is. I would say that the music in many scenes, such as in the last episode, are of movie quality. The quality of the voice acting is very good even though many times the script doesn't do the the performer's talents justice.In the end, your enjoyment of this show will depend on whether you can look past the gaping issues with the story and just enjoy it for the well-produced sloppy fun it is. If Guilty Crown would've had better script-writers, it is very possible it would have turned into a modern classic, but as it is now, GC merely ranks as a technically superb example of failed potential. For all the problems, I felt that my time with the show was time well-spent and I had a lot of fun along the way. If you don't care about poor writing and just want a slickly animated and fairly entertaining way to spend twenty-two episodes, Guilty Crown is your show; more discerning viewers will want to look elsewhere.
