The show also does that crazy thing where they start an episode in the middle of the story, and use flashbacks to tell what happened before you started watching. without telling you you're in a flashback. It's really jarring.
I understand that it was a bit difficult to understand the story with all those time jumps in the first season, but there really is a coherent story if you pay attention to it. In short, they are "superheroes" fighting each other for their own definition of justice and because the government wants to control and/or eradicate them.
Followed this series as it came out and it quickly became one of my favorites and really had an impact on me (still top 3 for me all these years later, tbh). I think your video does a great job providing what's appealing about it while also covering what's off putting about it to others. It was really fair. The enthusiasm here was also great, I laughed a few times at some of the jokes. 7:35 Also I agree with this part 100%. I don't get the impression Sho Aikawa (the series creator) was trying to make this broad appealing smash hit. It really is tailor made for a small niche who is interested in it, and I am that small niche, so quite frankly, I wouldn't want it any different.
Aye nice to see you here, I actually came across some of your posts from years ago on MyAnimeList while researching this anime. Happy to hear you found enjoyment from the video even though I kinda bashed on one of your favorite shows a little bit. It's crazy to see how such a relatively small anime has impacted the lives of so many other people. Thank you for dropping by man!!
For the time skips you can tell by there clothes when jiro has a red scarf,kikko looks grown-up, raito has blonde hair. It's confusing cause they got alot to tell in a little bit of time but they made it work with the flashbacks. Explaining why people are acting the way in the future or present. The show was a banger for me this is my 3rd time watching this show. Honestly this is the type a show that gets better when you watch it a second time cause you know more. But a first time viewer can easily get confused and say the show is ass. Definitely one of my top original shows that's not afraid to be different and be its own show. All that history you mentioned is what makes the show even better imo. History is dope if you actually pay attention to it. You hit all the points in why the show was a banger!
The historical references in this show flew all the way over the heads of Western viewers. In order to fully appreciate the show you pretty much had to be a person who grew up in Japan in the 60s/70s, or a huge Japanese history nerd lol
I cut it myself and say to myself "God take the wheel" and pray I don't give myself a Tory Lanez with the grain AND YEAH I HAD TO THROW THAT IN FOR THE OGs!!
I suppose this is the anime equivalent to throwing everything at the wall and and using it regardless of what stuck and what didn't. I can't really call any of it squandered potential, especially since it seems to use tropes from anime classics without them feeling forced. Honestly, I might actually get around to watching this some time. I have a literal list of anime I've been trudging through (and adding to lol) over the past 7 or so years so it probably won't take priority but I could see it being enjoyably flawed from my perspective.
Yeah some of the storylines here definitely shouldn’t have made the cut. I’m right with you there in having years worth of anime to catch up on lol. Always good to see you when a video drops Ben :)
@@Guaz Thanks man that means a lot! I know I've been absent on the comment section on your past few uploads but I have been watching, trust me. I've just been very preoccupied with a lot of home life stuff. I've got the bell turned on for your channel so I make sure never to miss an upload and it's incredibly admirable to see you make such a consistent effort to interact with your audience despite how much it may have grown.
@@BenOlsberg1995 Aye man don't even worry about it! Just happy to see you whenever you come by! And it's great to know you've been watching the videos! Thank YOU, Ben!
wow that statement proves you did not pay attention at all saying the shows just throwing stuff at a wall is like saying Evangelion is just white noise
Very good video! Apart from that, I'm interested in your sources concerning the chronology of Concrete Revolutio but I can't find the sites in question, could you send them to me ?

Yes, its nowhere near confusing as ppl claim to be
Your style of reviews are consistently fire, you stay putting ppl onto obscure anime. We love to see it
Gotta give the people what they deserve
This channel is the perfect blend of informative and entertainment keep up the good work
Thank ya for the kind words :)

You hit all the points in why the show was a banger!
Bro these vids are so well made you deserve way more attention man!
Ay boi boi
LET'S GO
I literally just started watching it an hour ago.
That’s a sign
Literally same
Welcome back
I missed you all
Honestly, not even a dumpster fire, it just ask its viewers to actually use their brain for once
The Director and Writer are the guys who were working on the OG FMA. It'd be sick if 04 Ed and Hohenheim showed up
This video go hard
Yo this guy is so underrated! Just stumbled on him. If he keeps this up I could see him hitting a million subs!
Bro how do you not have a big ass following I swear
i like this dude's way of talking
I almost bought this yesterday but decided to get Belle instead. This show looked cool so I might just check it out.
You make great vids. Please continue
This video helped me understand that this anime made no sense
This $#!TT is 🔥!! Is there MORE OF THIS!!! ?
Too bad people didn't like it, I really like this anime, for me it's the quintessential superhero anime.
The historical references in this show flew all the way over the heads of Western viewers. In order to fully appreciate the show you pretty much had to be a person who grew up in Japan in the 60s/70s, or a huge Japanese history nerd lol
no you don't
Bro you have to watch ranking of kings and make a video on that straight heat 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I seriously think you'd like great pretender. MMM its good
Thanks for your info you got new subscriber
Yo, who cut your hair bro? and spectacular video... LMAOOOOOOOOO THE FUCKING PLANET REFERENCE
I cut it myself and say to myself "God take the wheel" and pray I don't give myself a Tory Lanez with the grain
AND YEAH I HAD TO THROW THAT IN FOR THE OGs!!
Good Video.

So the saying that execution matters just as much as the idea is true
What’s up Falcon!!
@@Guaz I'm doing great! Nice camera btw, your videos look good!
Papa Guaz with some new sauce?
Always providing the heat 😈😈
So ppl don't like that it has realistic themes in a fantasy anime? I thought the time skips going back and forth would be the issue lol.
Very good video!
