Hinamatsuri (2018)
7/10
Laidback Hina for comedic release & Determined Anzu for emotional ride. And many more....
5 January 2023
Odd start and at first glance it reminded me of space baby, beelzebub, gantz and several other animes under slice of life & comedy category. The quality of production seems okay for me, an okay animation style snd bright tone setup that works well with the scifi storyline. To be honest i wasnt connected with the flow of the storyline at first, took a while for me to catch up and starting to like. Good call in making hina as someone with laidback attitude but still able to express emotions and act cute.

For me, the introduction of Anzu made this series much better. Laidback Hina as for comedic release and Innocent Anzu as for emotional release while unfortunate Hitomi used as to tackle a real life adultery experience such as responsibility and growing up lol. Them. This anime taught me a valuable lesson on being homeless and their perspective. Anzu's performance was very compelling and moved me to tears. Reminded me of the sentiments from one piece especially that ugly crying by anzu.

Voice castings were okay for me, each of them paired up well with their respective characters design and potrayal. Nothing big on the action departments but the intro song was dope. Ending song was cool and appreciates the outro. Highly recommended.
