This show is about a bunch of dead kids/teenagers that are forced into something they never wanted. The love between characters pulls at the heart strings and makes you (or at least, it made me) tear up because of how genuine it felt. But it doesn't overpower the show like so many other animes do. But the animation is beautiful and that extra color just makes everything feel more real. The hair, outfits, highlights, everything was so eye-popping that it was a bit overwhelming at first. What struck me first when I watched the show was the color. And the character development is fantastic for an anime that is only 13 episodes. The characters, though some are a bit outrageous, have such.human backgrounds and problems that everyone has faced some point in life that you sort of find yourself nodding along when they talk about their death and life when they were still alive. But later in the show, the creators (you amazing, blessed creators) show you the characters' past and trust me, most of them are heart-wrenching. Their personalities are so easy to connect to and are flat out hilarious (idk, maybe it's because I'm still a teenager).
Though it took me an episode or too to get my bearings straight, after episode 3, I fell in love with the characters. I remember having a strange dream that night (morning?), but that's about it. I honestly had no clue what I was watching.
Warning: The first episode is as random as one can get. I remember seeing good reviews about Angel Beats online, so I decided to go ahead and watch the first episode. So what do I do? Go on crunchyroll of course and browse some anime. Why? Well because one minute I was laughing so much it hurt, and the next I was crying and cursing the world for making me have such emotions. Thinking back now, I probably looked psychotic while watching this. WARNING: THIS IS A REVIEW FOR THE ANIME! THOUGH I HAVEN'T READ THE VOLUMES (YET), I AM JUST GOING BASED OFF OF THE SHOW!
