A Great anime!!!........mindful if you don't watch the final episode
Reckno6419 April 2020
This would have been one of my favorite sci-fi anime of all time. I watched it with the family way back in 2014 and it quickly grew to be one of the most intriguing, eerie, and dare I say disturbing anime I ever saw. The pacing was one of the best in my opinion, with things being revealed at the right time and things getting intense at the right moments. It even referenced some real-life mysteries like the UVB-76 radio station and solar flares. It was perfect; almost as good as Steins;Gate if you ask me!

The final episode though, was one of the most disappointing things I EVER saw. Without going into too much detail, it felt incredibly rushed and concluded everything the series had built up to so haphazardly that to this day, I have yet to see a "finale" nearly as bad as this one. Weak cartoon finales have always been met with "At least it wasn't as disappointing as Robotics;Notes" in my opinion. I could go into more detail why I HATED this final episode, but I'd rather not spoil this otherwise great anime. It took me awhile to remind myself how much I enjoyed the anime up to that point, and how worthy of a watch it still was.....if you don't watch the last episode.

This series is a solid 8/10. Would've given a 9 or 10 if not for that awful finale.....

Really interesting anime about robotics

After enjoying both Steins:Gate series I decided to check out this series as it is apparently taken place in the same universe.

Akiho Senomiya is a very enthusiastic girl who has an obsession with robots and wants to complete a dream which her sister could not. Her and her child friend Kaito are members of the robotics clubs who are working together on a project to enter in the tokyo expo.

I personally enjoyed this series, I am surprised it has such a low rating. I am a bit of a fan of mecha like animes and I actually was once into robotics. If you are into this kind of stuff i think you might like it.

The art style for this was pretty good too and I can definitely a lot of the character designs resembling to the steins gate universe. HAlso i thought the dub voice cast was pretty neat too.

I overall like it there might be faults on occasions with this series but overall it's great.

Series Review without spoilers.*

This series is a relationally emotional one. The only reason it's marked with one is the whole blacklist feature. (Which unintentionally may harm the series for those, however reading reviews before watching this show is highly not recommended as it's really mild anyway.)

Onto the series. The series is related horizontally to other anime which would also be Steins Gate, and Chaos Head if you are feeling alone.

The overall tone of the series actually made me personally cry. I felt emotional as I have felt those failures in engineering. Engineering is tough. One of the degrees which is worth it not because of the money because of "The right stuff." It's not about grades or transcripts or pay scale it's about what 'You do.' This degree requires tenacity. This show captures a lot of that idealism.

Even the MC's are personalities of someone in a technical degree of the 5 MC's characters' you could portray yourself as 1-3 personalities.

This series takes sci-fi and informs people of real world concepts like monopoles. Monopoles technically do not exist but only because it's a policy in the scientific community to dismiss something to not exist because we do not understand it. It's a professional thing (Saves people from delusions.). The science explained what people might not understand. Monopoles themselves are highly complex and are not explained until advanced physics.

This series is one where there are themes one would not be embarrassed. It's something of an icon that will go down in history. Despite not being as popular as Steins Gate this series has it's own quirks which are not to be mistaken or downplayed. But despite these flaws the main theme shines through.

If you are in FIRST Robotics this series is a must see as it's fairly related to a robotics club's fantasy. The overall concept of the show focuses on the characters. The feel of a robotics clubs is nearly spot on. (Except a bit exaggerated.)

Animation The color in HD is highly improved over normal.
