Angel Beats! Audience Reviews

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
DCfan As I promised on my review for Charlotte I am going to check out Angel Beats. Since I have now completed it here is my review.To give a quick summary: Angel Beats is about a young student by the name of Yuzuru who dies, has no memory of his death, and is recruited by Yuri to join battlefront to stop Angel. But, Angel is not a bad.Just be vary that there are two OVA's to this anime. The first one happens in between Episode 9 and 10 and the second one happens between episode 2 and 3. If you go on YouTube there will be an alternative ending available to watch. My advice if an anime is 100% never watch an OVA before the ending otherwise it ruins the flow. In terms of voice acting it was good, to be honest other then Brittany Kowbolisky and Greg Ayers I had no idea who any of the other voice actors were.Episode 3,10,12 and 13 were the most saddest episodes of the series and my favourite episodes alongside the second episode (where battlefront sneak into underground), episode 5 (when battlefront attempt to make Kanada fail her exams), episode 6 (when we learn a bit about Ayato's past) I was very surprised on how he massively changed from a dark ruthless bully to a kind hearted person and the episodes where we actually learn about Yuzuru.Like with every show there will be bad episode and when comes to Angel Beats the worst episodes are episode 4 because at the time I found Yu a very annoying character who screamed a lot: because of her the episode got ruined. The two OVAs because in the first one the whole plot was the characters getting over excited over anything just make Angel run away to sneak out her plans and on top of that Yuri was just being a b*tch to her friends and bullying them at end of the by restricting them from eating for a whole week while she is drinking a water bottle with her friends on the flour, the whole episode was an utterly joyless experience from beginning to end especially for fans who had watched the ending before this. I don't want to talk about the second OVA.In terms of art style and animation it was good. However every female character looked a bit like a carbon copy of Yuri but with different heights, hair style and visual detail.My final words: If you enjoyed Charlotte you will enjoy this.
emma529 Ah, Angel Beats. Let me first say, this anime and Ouran NEEDED a extension of episodes. Beside that I really like this anime but it is VERY rushed. Many of characters were introduced and you never learned their backstory which really REALLY sucks. All of the characters are great but the main character is extremely bland and so is his love interest, Kanade. If the anime had focused on Yurripe or Hinata (which I believe the manga does), it would of been better. Its a nice watch though, yes it is overrated but good. Great soundtrack, awesome animation, a decent English dub (it's not super annoying, honestly it isn't), and nice comedy. If you've watched Clannad and want to watch another anime before Afterstory then put Angel Beats in there. It's a nice anime and has a series of emotional back stories. I liked Angel Beats and it was nice but it could of been more. I have considered reading the manga as well which I believe doesn't have Otonashi nor Kanade so cool. But anyway, it's a nice watch and decently enjoyable. Good writing just wished it was longer. No second season please, just a extension.
Xitij Thool Just out of Curiosity, browsing through many animations, I stumbled upon this Anime. I am happy that picking up this anime didn't let me down. I must say ,it is One of the best Anime I came across.Revolves around bunch of high school students in school located Everything happened on School located in the particular,unknown place that is kept secret a mystery reveled until end of anime. If you think of it as a normal love stories it is much better. This anime is all about the desire,ambitions of students, character development, plot each and everything is beautifully crafted also music is very very good.Making the viewer hooked till the end and carve for more excitement until the end.Funny,charming,emotional makes the viewer to watch it again as your hope for best animation watching will be definitely satisfied.
Tohru Otonashi After my friends and I got out of our Full Metal Alchemist and Fruits Basket obsessions, we needed a new anime show to watch. So while I was on Netflix searching the anime section, I came across a show called Angel Beats!. I turned it on, thinking it looked okay, and was immediately sucked in. The story had lovable characters and a good storyline and it was perfect. After watching the first three episodes, I noticed that there was only 13 episodes in the entire series! I thought, 'This sure isn't long enough to finish this story!' But continued to watch anyway. And after the 9th episode, the story almost completely changed and I was left confused. They got it back together in time for the final episode, but I still think that the story ended too quickly. It was a perfect ending though, if you're willing to stick through the entire episode. And don't forget your tissue box, it'll come in handy through the whole series! And I'm normally really tough and don't cry easy, but there were tears rushing down my face the entire last episode, especially the final sequence before the credits. I still think that I could have lasted longer, like Full Metal Alchemist or had a fuller and more clear storyline like Fruits Basket, but it was good in its own way.
