To clear up any confusion about this anime, its all part of a bigger story. In order to fully understand whats going on here, you need to listen to all the songs, read the manga, read the novels, THEN watch the anime. I get it if you think that its a little annoying and stupid to have to do so much, but the anime probably wasn't meant to be watched by any random person. Its actually the ending to a big story.
I honestly understand the whole story even just with the anime only ,it's very similar to bakemonogatari atleast the first season with the vibes , character designs and constant crazy angles (for bakemonogatari those never ending text that i always have to paused to try and read even though a lot of them doesn't really mean anything )and the first season also had their stories kinda based around on animals and supernatural of some sort and mekaku city actors kinda had them as well ,daze was an awesome opening really made the anime really cool and i guess give me some hint thats why maybe i didn't get lost on what's happening in the series .
@@chasse-nigb3r well both were made by Studio Shaft, and both directed by Akiyuki Shinbo, so it only makes sense that the direction and framing of scenes feels similar. I reccomend looking up other stuff directed by this guy if you like Mekakucity and Monogatari, especially other stuff he did with Shaft.
@@DolusVulpes for exemple ?
@@kunkanyorhiu6535 Arakawa under the Bridge, Madoka Magica, and use Google and look it up if you want more examples because that's what the internet's for, I'm not a search engine, and my phone's about to die.
@@DolusVulpes I've seen arakawa under the bridge really love it cause comedy is my favorite genre and Arakawa did have some nice comedy,yeah it did have some similarities with weird angles and some text instantly popping up sometimes I actually didn't even notice being similar monogatari ,I've seen madoka magica as well but I haven't finished season 1 yet though I'm like one episode left and I've been trying to avoid it for about 2 years now .
8 YEARS MAN
Time flies so fast,
Still one of my favorite OP
Same!!
Yeah
Okay
ME TOO. From S.korea
Same
Wow, completely forgot about this anime. Thanks UA-cam Recommended!
Just got recommended this again as well, i’ll never forget about kagerou tho, it’ll remain one of my favourite anime/project of all time.
It's one of those shows that you would live to see a season two of, but know that the show stopped in a good place.
I love this franchise, and UA-cam just recommended me this again, don't know really why
If only they did the damn anime right.
The songs: perfect.
The storyline: amazing.
The manga/novels: breathtaking.
This series had so much damn potential. Still love the characters though.
The thing is though, the anime (bluray ver) is good, it just wasnt meant to be stand-alone. Its a timeloop story after all, you have to read the manga and novels first. Also, theres a sequel on the way oop.
It's not really confusing. It's very similar to Durarara!! story-telling wise. It shows events and later links them together, all in a very sophisticated manner. I find it really interesting and story-rich that way.
genevann e they were only explaining the way the anime's portrayed, jesus. Let people enjoy things
@@Nevereveronce91 I watched this coz it's similar to durarara lol
Tbh i kinda hard to find it like durarara/baccano. Sure everything happen makes them link and somehow related but this one got alot plothole that very confusing,but top comment said it that you need to read light novel,manga and other then just watch this anime
This opening is literally oozing with foreshadowing and symbolism, and I absolutely adore it. You can just watch for scenes featuring any one character and spot at least five references to future (or technically past) events. For example, watch what Ene does in the scenes she's in, and how she looks.
0:47 is my fav part, i just love how his eyes turn red
Underrated op, and even more underrated anime.
I don't understand why everyone is so confused with this anime. It was confusing in the beginning but I began to understand it later on. It's really not confusing at all when you begin to understand it lol
probably because they don't know the original material
I'm pretty sure they just got to ep 5 and said they were done because it was trippy. It didn't really rely on source material. And the only thing I found they needed to look more in was how Ene got her body back and the fact Konoha dosent have a snake. That's really it though.
It's bc the route the anime took was different than the usual route, but it seemed like a normal route at first, so when ep 5 happened, things got weird. Konoha got hit with a truck trying to save Heebs and Hiyori, even though Hiyori should've been in the Kagerou world if the plot of Kagerou Daze already ensued by then. This series has a LOOOOOOOOOOT of events and characters that the viewers have to piece together, and the anime adds some new things that fans of the original didn't see coming.
And if you're gonna say that the source material is irrelevant for judging the anime, this series is an exception. The differences in the anime's route have to be compared to how the routes in the source material played out to better understand how a route can get to a Happy End vs a Bad End. So when something different happens in the anime, it's compared to what we know from its other media and, as a result, gets pretty damn confusing when we try to piece EVERYTHIHG we know about this already complicated series to a new route that has appeared in the form of this anime.
Hope that explains it well enough...
People do love saying that this anime is bad without seeing "source material", which is something I couldn't disagree with more if I tried. Now, thing is there isn't really a real source material for this show, because all 3 are equally canon, and while Anime technically takes place last it really does not matter which you start with. Be it MV's Manga or Anime you will have different story every time, but this is the point of this series.
The reason why I disagree so hard with people saying Anime is bad if you do not know what the series is about already, is pretty simple the best part is figuring it out. And for that purpose Anime is by far the most satisfying when you understand it.
Then you can feel free to see other timelines which will give you a looot more details, which is great because when you know the "mystery" details are what you are interested with, and on the same time you can still enjoy them because even though they take place at exactly same time they ARE different timelines. Lost Time Memories in Anime version while focuses on Anime timeline, it does show manga panels, and the opening shot of MV's just to remind people : They ALL happened.
That said I am very worried about the upcoming Reloaded series, Anime was supposed to be the ending of this story, so chances are this one is going to be absolutely terrible and forced. (Of course it can also just take place in one of the timelines before Anime, but I do not think this is going to be the case)
To be fair it really comes togheter on a second watch, especially if you're not familiar with the source material.
Had a similar experience with monogatari
I do think shaft lowered the standards, mind you there was a lower budget on it. Eitherway I still loved seeing each character move about xD
Also fun fact, Mikagura project is also getting animated by a different studio. I am very excited.
Really??? Do you know when will it be released in america?
William Dempsey it'll start airing in april this year, and it's by the same guys who did gekkan-shoujo nozaki kun
I know these comments are like from a month ago but... Do you guys watch these series on youtube or another website and when you watch it is it english sub or only japanese? Cause i soo wanna watch this anime but i dont know how! Please help me (i know i didnt quite make the words right but i am norwegian and a little lazy right now)
usually I use sites like animeshow.tv/ and www.chia-anime.tv/ cause youtube is pretty bad at getting all the episodes imo
BUT try see if you can get episodes on www.crunchyroll.com/ or www.funimation.com/ first because those websites support the creators and stuff
usually when you see an episode it's subbed unless you got there 1 minute after it aired or something and nobody has translated it yet
hope I helped :>
Ok thanks :)
9 years and I still love this opening
If you guys are going to dub this you better use top notch voices that match them well, if you ruin this master piece I will never forgive you -_-
"Masterpiece"? Dude, this anime was confusing as heck. It jumped from place to place and the animation was lower than Shaft standards.
It comes from something called Kagerou project google it, people who knew about this and then watch the show would agree with me, this is what I think about it...
The Show (story, art, characters) = my life
I can relate to it, it's very special to me
Christina Hathaway I do know where it comes from, but the adaptation doesn't do original material justice, It doesn't stand on its own, which is what bugs me. You have to depend on the orginal source to fully understand anything.
But really, Shaft did a really lousy job with some of Mekaku's animation. (like that one episode where it flashbacks to Ayano's childhood. Man, that 3D animation).
The animation is supposed to be like that! But I do agree with you about the flashback, I don't get why it was like that....
Christina Hathaway I did ressearch about it and I still think the anime was terrible... I even made the effort to wait for it to end so I could see it all in a row without waiting to max the enjoyability...
I understand why some were confused by the story. The anime was more for the fans of the original song series and light novels/manga. When I first read the manga and listened to the songs I was also confused. Especially the chapter were everyone is brutally shot to death and then Shintaro wakes up and meets Hibiya and Hiyori (I think that’s what the girl’s name was..?) first instead of the others. Or in the songs when multiple deaths are shown but no one really “dies” but after awhile it truly does make sense, in the song series and manga the confused was meant to be there. The anime? Not so much. I believe it’s because it didn’t do the time loop death thing it failed to explain to the fans that that’s what’s going on. Ayano’s reappearance also made no sense to me until I realized what had happened while she was in the heat haze. Overall; it’s a good story and I suggest reading the manga and listening to the songs THEN rewatching the anime. (Also everything in the franchise is called “Kagerou Project” yet the anime isn’t called that...?)
I remember watching this back in 2014 as a teen
This is definitely a summer classic for me. I enjoyed many days where me and the group watched and read kagepro stuff
UA-cam recommened me this again two times:
I guess its time.
I like this opening
Just watched this for the first time in ages-ah, the memories
I know this anime had its flaws and all, but still, I love this opening so much!! And the music was awesome, the voices were perfect, and it was so cool to see them all animated and brought to life ;u;
Probably going to buy the dvd of this when the dub comes out. I hope they have the music videos on there too.
This series could've been a LOT better if was 2 cours, and if the series composition was handled properly. I wanted to like this show, but I was seriously disappointed with it.
Same here.
Actually the show is truly good when you get that this isn't a standalone. You actually NEED to read the novels, read the manga, watch the PV's and everything to get the show. If you watch it closely, the anime adaptation isn't an adaptation but a new route (completely new) and a sequel of everything. The anime series is what link Outer Science with Summer Time Record. So they didn't explain anything cuz u already knew everything.
Did you read the manga? Or listen to the music before the anime came out? Do that and then watch the series. It helps.
The ending of the anime finally make sense after 4 year
MEPSIPAX honestly, even though I haven’t read the source material (Ill download it after I comment) I was a little surprised at first, it could just be me, but I found the story a little hard to follow, and the characters never felt fleshed out enough to matter
After reading the manga everything makes so much sense like: like why Ayano tells hibiya don't forget me cuz they met in anothor timeline/route. They way hyori and hibiya are connected. Why Shintaro posses one of the snakes when he wasn't in accident and didn't lose a loved one and Mary resetting abilities. The whole evil snake backstory.
The Anime is literally a continuation of the manga ending.
surely the best opening i've ever heard
Still a Masterpiece ...❤
I'm gonna watch this!
For all of you who don't know, the づ in Shidu's name also means zu. It has two meanings. TWO MEANINGS.
Minuto 1:10 Kano se mira Super Despair
Que lindo
No se porque, pero cuando veo este op me dan ganas de llorar cuando recuerdo el pasado a konoha y ene 😢😢
Man I really need to watch this again, I remember almost nothing about it.
Mentally I'm here
Awesome Mekakucity Actors Opening Trailer.
Time flies so fast dude. I remember watching this anime when I was in high school
And don't understanding anything about it
@@abdullahaltnoluk lmao
Me and some friends love this show so much
I really miss that era
Watching this anime was like starting on episode 22 of like 50
Because this is the final route of the kagepro story
Technically its episode 88 of 199 if you are looking at release order.
If you wan't chronological order, more like 188 of 199, give or take
@Thatowlzguy you sound like a nerd
This is my fav anime. Still don’t completely understand it all but I adore it.
1:11 my first reactions seeing this: OH MY DIRTY!
Omg I forget the name of the song but it was something deceive
@@pocky5867 Yobanashi Deceive~
Yobanana decieve
I've heard many bad things about this, but considering I'm a SHAFT fanboy, I'll probably find something good out of it.
Its confusing if you don't know the source material thats really the major flaw with it in my opinion. Also the animation in the later half wasn't nearly as good as the beginning.
its alright... if you already know the show, or atleast spend some time on the wiki. They made it for people who already know the original material. That being said, I, a person that only got into it about a month before the Anime came out didnt get anything till episode 6. It was like playing tetris and you get the long block and the whole wall disappears.
This
Not sure what you could've heard that's bad about it, it's pretty great for the constraints it was made in, and it works as either a standalone story or as a part of a larger story with all the other Mekakucity media.
i don't care what anyone says this will always be in my top 10 you just don't get it
Ahh this bring a lot of memory~
0:45 *Konoha Crying in the background*
Aww my baby konaha >~
Nah, he sleeping
I was hit by nostalgia...
*Let's Save*
One intro I refuse to skip
Shintaro was probably one of the most important people in this show or had the biggest role
Love this song so much
1:11 Who’s this guy? No right answers allowed. My guess is Nagito Komaeda.
Close enough, hes the original Kokichi Ouma lmao

@@satansmascara9756 Deeply true
Sometimes i wished they redo this anime, y'know? Better animation and pacing. That would've been amazing.
Probably not gonna happen though.
Idk why but i kinda like the animation.i think it suits the show.However,yes,it needs better pacing
Mekakucity Reload
Well is a short movie called "Kagerou Daze - in a days -"
Shaft has always done really good anime. If you're not aware, Shaft did the Monogatari series, Hidimari Sketch (series), Elves of the Forest, Sayonara Zetsubou-Sensei, Af, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and this. I mean, Shaft hasn't done all the greatest anime, but it has done some very critically-acclaimed ones.
As beautiful as the first day I see this
I wonder what ever happened to that remake they were supposed to do for this? I feel like it just kinda faded away since we never got anymore news...
Actually, Jin said that it's still in production! He said that it's just taking longer than he thought
@@wuffleroo is it an anime remake under the name Mekakucity Reload or another different route?
@@janna2791 yeah mekakucity reload
If someone else gonna watch this, this anime isn't an adaptation of kagerou daze, it is sequel. Before anime, you should watch all clips and read manga.
That gave me chills
me: ooohhhh I like the animation style...
*sees anime production: SHAFT*
me: I love u shaft... u make my day
So much better after listening to the vocaloid songs
Pedazo de opening
Whoa it appears on my homepage just today
UA-cam should add a nostalgia section and just recommend you videos that you haven't watched in a long time.
To be able to understand this series properly you need to listen to the songs, read the manga and novel, and then watch the anime because if you don't, you're going to be confused as hell and probably won't like it.
Eh, listening to the songs is enough... Reading the manga and LN's can be a plus if you want to understand the added lore...
TFW the character designs were done by Gen'ichirou Abe and I'm just here freaking out like aAAAAAAA because he's my favorite SHAFT animator
I really hope they make season 2
this show is epic and so goood
I love Mekaku city actors u
I love this anime
Однозначно один из лучших опеннинингов
I liked having to piece together the plot and everything, but the last episode was WAY too rushed. It should have been at least two episodes to explain it.
AWSOME
I suggest that you guys read the manga of this "Kagerou Haze"- better than the anime tho it's still ongoing ;-;
I was so lost while watching this anime lol
Happy august 15th
I love the op
the people complaining about the show being confusing and bad are the same people who don’t seem to understand, despite being told, they have to read the manga, listen to the songs (w/ translations and mvs), and read the novels to understand.
bunny That's precisely why they are complaining. You shouldn't have to read the manga, listen to the songs to understand it. It is still a bad show despite the great source material. Reading the manga and listening to the songs would defeat the whole purpose of making it an anime.
Lekyea not...really?? listening to the songs and reading the manga continue a new route of the story. like the movie and this anime were two different routes. this isn’t the first type of story where the story is continued through multiple different formats and medias, and you have to be familiar enough with all of it to really understand. it was never meant to be a standalone type of thing :/
bunny bunny The anime adds nothing new to the table. It had poor pacing, a poor budget and was a bad representation of the story as a whole. The route was definitely explained better in the songs, novels, etc. What did it do really besides give fanservice to fans? What I expected was for the anime to deliver in gathering all the parts together to introduce the story to a new audience. It didn’t deliver though.
I miss this anime
I think it's confusing because a lot of people skipped the stories told after the ending songs.
this op reminds me so much of noragami! LOL
Exactly! ♥️
IT DOESSS
TRUE
I watched Noragami after I saw Mekakucity Actors so when I saw Noragamis OP and realized how similar they looked I thought "What the hell is this" XD
