The Eminence in Shadow (2022–2023)
6/10
Bad backbone story, only a final aim.
29 June 2023
It's really hard to say if the anime is good in the early episodes.

It kinda lost me early in show, probably in the second ep. It felt like it has no backbone (only an end game to which it was aiming)

Pros:
  • the anime has potential
  • it has been inspired from few other animes (not necessarily bad, but it didn't integrate well in whatever the writer thought about)
  • the chars seem to have a personality.


Cons:
  • the environment in which the story evolves (at least early in the story) it's so confusing.


  • ep 2 made me feel like I lost some details. Made me confused on what's going on.


  • Very few of the details have been clarified in the 3rd episode. It's not mystery, it's purely a lack o properly introduction in the story.


  • I'm at the ep 4 and don't feel it to have a well developed backbone, but only a final aim.


  • "huge" display of power for no reason, just to kill someone who would die with extremely less dmg.


Conclusion: After the episode 6 it's starting to be less painful to watch, and it got actually better. In the end I actually enjoyed it.
