First of all Yeah the plot is slow, the first few episodes are kind of like those episodes added between dramatic animes having too much gore or too much losses you know like akame ga kill, akudama drive level of sorrow.

Well, after ending the anime when you look for synopsis you will find that it was never a gang war, just people roped in trying to live better lives with their circumstances. You will understand it if you watch it.

But when it gives it GIVES

I like this anime enough to write a review for it - a rather unusual thing for me to do!

Before I describe what I enjoy about the show, I would like to mention its shortcomings first. The animation is lacking, and the artwork and soundtrack mediocre.

Having said that, the animators make up by employing clever directorial choices. The characters are designed unlike your typical anime and can be distinguished between quite easily. Each character has been afforded a unique design. I found them quite likeable and enjoyed the atmosphere the show is set in. One can make the case that there are no filler episodes ...

Preliminary (13/25 eps)
BORING !!! Story gets dragged out after only a few episodes and there is very little action. The action consists of mainly still pictures with sound. Opening song is annoying as hell. Animation was good and sound was fine. I just lost interest because it was like watching Columbo, but instead of Peter Falk, it's David Schwimmer as Columbo. 26 ep collection can be found for less than $10.00. What does that tell you?
