Full review
“When you feel this person could protect you and your children for the rest of your lives, you start to feel a desire to be with them forever.” -Kaguya
Kaguya-Sama is an insane masterpiece. For some reason, it has everything that you could ask for. This is not something that I expected in any way from this anime. I've read and watched many spoiler-free reviews about this and they always say the same thing. This show hilariously blew their minds.
The show revolves around the President and Vice-president of the school council which are both in-love with each other but both has the highest pride in humanity but not wanting to confess. This has been going for seasons! They compete and tried not to fall to each other's trap of confession. It's really enjoyable.
The story is set in a school, a typical setup for an anime. It's quite safe to be honest, not to mention the romance part of it, however, they elevate the standard. It's common but it's unique. This is a slice of life but this anime cannot be listed as a slice of life. Because it's all over the place.
What do I mean?
You got the school, you got romance, action, fantasy, comedy, you freaking name it. This anime has it all and it's interconnected in an insanely weird and in a really good way.
The transitions of the animation are insane for an anime of its kind They even explore a different aspect ratio, using black and white and dragon ball-type of scenes. Truly incredible.
This show has a massive entertainment value. It has really great story-telling behind a very simple plot. It's really impressive.
“Telling people what to do isn’t really my thing. Something like this is only noble if you do it without saying anything.” -Ishigami
The Finale
An impressive conclusion for this epic storytelling about our guys. A masterpiece that we might only encounter once in our lifetime. This is a really great ending, all those seasons, those build-ups, are all here. This is what we are all expecting for this anime but it has to grant and has a really rewarding culmination.
It's ridiculous but it works. It's somehow heartbreaking but it's fun. It's warming for sure. My heart aches a little knowing that it's the end. You'll be amazed, you'll laugh and you'll be satisfied while asking for more.
And there's a surprise Christianity in the end. Now, tell me if this anime has everything
“Even though it’s a single word, “Love” can have many meanings. Love for one’s family. Love for one’s friends. Love for those in one’s care.” -Shirogane
My takeaway
This show may have madness but it also comes with its won cleaverness. They have intelligent lines that sometimes we brush off as we proceed in watching the show. They got controversial quotes and lines that really make sense.
I really like it when they show how we people set our best foot forward. This line is a positive way of using it, but in actuality, we often try to deceive the people we like. We tend to do those really nice things to gain their trust and their love. It's weird, it's hard accept but it makes sense.
“You have to hide your weakness and ugliness behind a veil. Otherwise people won’t love you.” -Hayasaka
Big question!
How much can you offer and how far can you go for someone that you truly love?
“It’s not good to be excessively afraid of physical contact with other people. I guess that’s the dark side of the society “ Kaguya
