    MAPPA's Knockout Blend of Action, Comedy, and the Supernatural

    Bucchigiri had a promising start with its unique visuals, intriguing premise (think Aladdin with a modern twist), and energetic action. It built up a lot of mysteries, but the show never delivered answers. What is "Honkibito"? Why is Matakara obsessed with becoming one? The side characters like Senya and Yichiya felt pointless, possessing high schoolers for their grudge match. Matakara's fixation on the main character and the Cat Cafe plot with Miss Jasmine all felt like wasted ideas.

    But the biggest disappointment was the characters. The main guy, Arajin, was a shallow ladies' man stuck on getting with one girl. All his early fights were just to impress her, with cringeworthy declarations about "losing his virginity." There was no room for him to develop amidst the constant brawls, making his later personality shift feel unearned. The rest of the cast wasn't much better. They felt like wacky stereotypes rather than actual people with motivations and stories. This show had the potential to be something special, but it fumbled the plot and wasted its characters.

    Mappa is wasted on this garbage

    Cant believe they took on this garbage of an anime.. really hard to watch.. mc is really annoying.. its not even funny anymore.. managed to watch up until episode 2. Cant take the vommit inducing garbage..people need to have better taste.. garbage like this is the reason why people hates anime lovers.. i hope mappa was paid enough in making this garbage those poor souls.. always working late just to get this garbage out.. i wont even recommend this anime to my worst enemy.. listening to the mc is like listening to someone scratch a blackboard with their nails. How can anyone with a half working brain thinks that this is cool.

    It's a good anime, it has its flaws (mainly the MC), but it's good overall.

    The story should've focused on Arajin and Matakara fixing their broken relationship, but instead we got a boy simping for a girl who doesn't even like him. I just hope there is a season 2, because the final episode showed that they are close again like how they used to in the past. Plus the story is more interesting when it focused on Matakara side of the story much more than Arajin.

    Apart from the lame MC, everything else is good, although i don't like Arajin, but the final episode did make me not hate him as much, but I still don't like him in general, he had potentialc and maybe we can see that in season 2? We can only hope.

    Whiny Main Hero

    Buchigiri is a remake of an anime movie by the same title. I don't remember whether I've watched the previous version of film or not, but I do get annoyed a lot by the main hero being a whiny and live in his unrealistic fantasy of ideal relationship.

    The supporting characters, however, were all great and enjoyable. A lotal friend who vouched and tried to protect him at all time, a genie who longed for a powerful human to sync with, a girl he fell for who was a psychotic, big brother lover, her big brother who was psychotic violence gang head, and more characters yet to introduced.

    The action and humor were well timed and fun AF. The comical violence drew at minimum a smile. But the main hero being a whiny boy turned me off and less interested.

    MUST WATCH

    I JUST COMPLETED SEASON 1 AND WHAT I CAN SAY THIS ANINE IS SO GOOD AND THAT ANIMATION MAAPA ON 🔥🔥🔥. YES, LIKE EVERYBODY I ALSO DONT LIKE THE MC THAT MUCH BUT SIDE CHARACTER ARE TOO GOOD THAT THEY COMPENSATE EVRYTHING AND MC CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT CAME IN LAST EPISODE MAY MC BECOME BETTER IN SEASON 2 I KNOW THAT RELEASE OF SEASON 2 OF THIS ANIME IS HARD BUT I AM GOING TO PRAY FOR IT BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT I KNOW THIS ANIME HAVE MANY FLAWS LIKE OTHER BUT I WE CAN'T ASIDE ITS GOOD THINGS LIKE ITS HUMOUR ITS STORY IS GUESSABLE BUT I CANT SAY ITS NOT GOOD AND DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES OF EVERY DIFFERENT CHARACTER THIS ANIME SOMETHING THAT I WANTED TO SEE FROM VERY LONG TIME.
