I’ve never underestimated a show quite like this one. I didn’t see anything online and I didn’t think the premise sounded that great. I gave it a watch on a whim just because it sounded unique and holy crap my expectations were shattered in one episode
Even for a 20+ years manga reader like me, Orb’s premise is very unique. The fact that Orb can make this unique premise interesting and touching really inspires me. Very happy to be able to witness this kind of written in my life.
"Orb" is a work of art. The original story by Uoto is on par with Marguerite Yourcenar's "Opus Nigrum" and Umberto Eco's "The name of the Rose". Absolutely worth reading. To me, it's the best anime of the season. And probably the year. I don't care about the other shows, they have their qualities on their own right, but "Orb" stands out far, far ahead of everything else. It even managed Tsuda Kenjirou to drop the tried and true tired-yakuza-tone he masters so well and deliver a wonderful performance in Ep.3, when Nowak faces Rafal. A must watch. That's it.
@@sanji_loverboy529Not really. All the characters are fictitious and the way the Church is portrayed is for storytelling reasons not necessarily to be historically accurate
@@sanji_loverboy529The author himself has never claimed its historical accuracy and he even explicitly stated that it includes exaggerated historical fictions in his interview. Stop spreading misinformation.
@@sanji_loverboy529 it's very unaccurate, kinda based on memes about church and how people accepted heliocentrism. I was one of many who thought it is indeed based on real history, but nah. Now after the show many weebs will pretend about how much they know about history , sadly. Another big oof for anime community
its so under appreciated, i never even heard of this anime until it popped up on my netflix. i was already hooked from its summary lol 😂 the story basis was so unique and interesting i was surprised i havent heard anyone mention it
I started it today, got 3 episodes in, completely hooked. Just got off work and I plan on watching w.e else is available to watch. Definitely a sleeper anime.
I think people oversold it because i came watching it with a lot of expectation and it felt a bit of a let down. I found the story being predictable in some way (except for the end of episode 3), like Jolenta being the daughter of THAT guy, Oczy's friend carrying a death flag, Jolenta mentor using her own research with his name then runing into the puzzle on the city board, among other things. To sum it up I don't think the writting is that well done right now. However I can see it rocketing in quality with the dynamic starting between Jolenta and the Badeni/Oczy duo. THIS is probably the real start of the story here.
i expected nothing when i started watching this show, because i just randomly clicked on it on anime site, but damn, i found a fking massive diamond. it's good to be alive
@@Mackyrelsss It's honestly so cool to see. Every season there is criminally under watched anime outside of Japan, but they never get pushed so finish without anyone outside Japan knowing about said hidden gems - Ascendance of a Bookworm - Legend of the Galactic Heroes - Yatagarasu - Heike Monogatari - Kingdom - Sacrificial Princess Just to name a few. And the pattern goes all the way back to every Gundam before TWFM This is the first time I've seen people pushing for coverage hard, it getting it, and everyone now picking it up because of how good it is
i read a comment about this anime on a neil degrasse tyson and thought it was maybe an old cult anime like ohm shinrikyou and stuff like that by the way the commenter typed (very bot-like, lol). But woooow the way i've heard only good things about this anime makes me so interested lol
Dandadan is more fun but the better story is orb imo. Both are great one is just less deep easily digestible. It's the same between JJK and Vinland saga.
I been looking forward for this anime it remind me of the book I just finished recently, Sophie World's it's about philosophy and it has the same ideas and knowledge just like this anime. And it is good timing to watch. Oh it's also similar to Vinland Saga vibe, which is one of my favorite anime.
In japan its very popular its up there with dandadan and re zero in popularity this fall. I hope madhouse fix the lighting its too dark i can't see sht, we didn't have that problem in ep 1
Orb is more like Vinland Saga season2 but instead of less combat yet fighting to seek the true thing.(Vinland Saga for true warrior, while the Orb for the true faith and dream) Defenitely it's a best anime of this season.
@@RoanoraZoro123 i don't remember exactly it was a video on UA-cam where he started season 3 and was unable to recall something so he thought he would re watch season 2 before 3
It's such a great anime. Even though (like in a lot of anime), the premise and portrayal of Europe is very 'occidentalist', I feel it captures the ethos of christian dogmatism extremely beautifully. It's wonderfully written, with great dialogue, great characters, and creative visual storytelling (like the eyes in the sky representing religious guilt, and God's watchful gaze; it's such a powerful yet simple image). Go watch it, if you haven't yet. I just randomly found it, and wasn't expecting my heartstrings to be pulled so forcefully. More original writing like this!
Dandadan puts more care into the writing into it than most shounen for sure. And Orb also is one of the most innovative and inspiring animes to come out. Of course Orb is known for the writing so it wont be easy to compete there, but that doesnt mean Dandadan doesnt have any substance. Emotional Moments are much better done in Dandadan along with character dynamics. Creativity and Eccentricity Factors are its strong suit. While Orb is more grounded, down to earth (haha), and innovative. It inspires as I said. It is something that comes once every decade at most. Both of them are phenomenal at what they do. If we remove all opinions and just focus on purely qualitative analysis, Orb and Dandadan BOTH are equally good at what they set out to do. Both of them according to me are 94 to 95 out of 100 series. Watching and reading Dandadan and Orb bring me equal amounts of completely different types of positive emotions. Dandadan is one of the most fun and heartfelt series. Orb is one of the most awe-inducing and thought provoking ones. They arent comparable. Just because Dandadan follows a theme that resembles what has been seen before in Shounen it isnt inherently worse. And that factor alone also doesnt bring Orb to a whole tier above Dandadan. Tl;dr, both series are equally great in what they do.
No doubt that it's slowburn, so just let them cook 😅 I knew eps 3 is peak, but is it enough to be the best anime of the season? That might happen if Dandadan and rezero has production issue 😏
All of those are top tier in their own ways. I think they're all valid for best of the season. It's just depends on storytelling preference Orb has the advantage though because it will tell a complete story
yes it can. Dan dan dan is better animation wise, but if you are talking actual plot, depth of writing, orb is much better. They are not even on the same caliber. Dan Dan Dan is fun to watch, but that's all to it.

Orb is what initially dr. Stone was for me. But now, orb is more educational than I've thought.
My only criticism to orb is that when it's night everything is so fucking dark you barely can see anything.
yeah true I had to turn on my pc brightness all the way an still couldn't see much lol
You should try watching it in dark room
Orb is so good. They really did the unthinkable to the mc.
Yeah, (spoilers)
We can't even make the "spoilers joke"

Thank goodness this anime is getting recognition
its a masterpiece
personally for me as dandadan manga reader i think its better than dandadan
What stream is this clip from?
Literally one of the best anime this season no cap. If dandadan is 1st than Orb is literally 2nd right behind
It can even surpass dandadan if story doesn't fall off and keep improving the animation(its already good but it looks off sometimes) every episode

the only thing i hate with the anime is 50% of the time im looking at a black screen and listening to voice overs.
