Reviews for Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun (8)

I definitely recommend this as a "watch with friends of similar interest" type anime. It's lighthearted humor managed to get a quite few laughs out of me. It has a unique art style that isn't often seen in anime. Utilizing thicker line work and special color fills to set a somewhat "spooky" feel to it, since it is indeed a fun ghost story. The choice in colors seem to also be planned out and help build the atmosphere. The animation is pretty well done as well.When it comes to character development, I had a harder time understanding the motives or personality types. It didn't feel as fleshed out as I would like, though there is still enough there keep the main characters in the plot interesting to watch. It did make me tear up a little on one of the episode, (but that's because I can be a sappy idiot sometimes ) If you've seen a lot of anime before hand, I'd recommend adding this one to your list of shows to watch. Even if it doesn't do too much new with character tropes, the art style itself is enough to make it feel refreshing in a sense. I enjoyed it
