No spoilers. Don't listen to the negative reviews. 99% of animes with this type of animation have a bad rating just because of that. This is an anime with a plot that, despite being cliché, is well built, fast and develops perfectly over 8 chapters (I wouldn't have minded seeing up to 12). If you like sci-fi, here are elements that fit very well: space, alien beasts, energy sources, robots and futuristic weapons, military, among others. I want to highlight two anime mechanics that I like: the first, how the chains of command are continually challenged, both among the military and with respect to the prisoners.And secondly, I quite liked how they play with the element of the pregnancy of one of the main characters for the development of the plot: it is very well implemented and is important for the evolution of the story. In short, and most importantly, the series is entertaining, if you like this genre. I give it a rating of 7.5, but I leave it at 7 because the anime is just "good", I wouldn't call it "very good" either. Additional note: a very interesting series to watch along with the anime "exception" which was released on netflix almost at the same time as "make my day" with which it also shares the genre of sci-fi, space and futuristic elements as well as reflection on life.
If you like Sci-Fi and Horror, then giving it a watch isn't too much to ask, 8 Eps. is quickly done usually. Humanity on a different, distant ice-planet where horrors lurk in the deep down darkness. I'll be honest, does this anime LOOK good, more or less. Is the story a masterpiece, maybe not. Yet I couldn't help myself from continuing to watch this through and enjoy most of the characters. Heck, it even made me cheer for a robot multible times, somethings that doesn't always happen. Over all though, it's not a must watch but something nice to bite into if you got the time and you enjoy anythingdone with Space and Aliens.
(spoiler free review) Make my day, well it sure did! Sure, the show may not have best animations ever but it wasn't bad to unwatchable point. Story was also quite nice, it's one of the shows I liked most of all stuff I watched (I would say I watched many but judge number from my profile or smth). That all said, I won't be making story spoiler cause it would just be a waste to spoil it but I sure recommend anyone with interest in sci-fi to watch this. Btw about cgi, I am someone who quite dislikes cgi so in most cases i would dropshows simply because of it but not this show, instead I watched it fully in 1 sitting because it was just so interesting. So yeah, my rating here may be focused mainly on story and little on animation but as there are sh** ton of people who hate on it and rate it low judging on animation alone I just had to let people know that this show isn't actually bad as they are saying by writing this review (and I extremely rarely write reviews). So there you have it guys, if you like this kind of stuff make sure to give "Make my day" a watch. I promise you won't regret it.
I've watched the first few episodes of every anime in Winter 2023 and without a doubt this is the worst anime released this season. I know for a lot of people they're going to write this off immediately because of its pretty awful CGI but there are a lot more issues than just Foodfight level CGI characters and animation. I don't know if they had two teams working on it but some shots look passable while the next will look like a fan project a 12 year old made on Youtube. The story is nothing special, humanity wants a super rare mineral, finally find a planet that'sfull of the stuff but they dig too deep and wake up a bunch of hibernating Tardigrades the size of elephants that run rampant over the entire planet. The characters are worse than stock, they're bad. The main character will randomly flip a switch between being a super action hero to being a wimpering, crying loser begging for everyone to hug and sing campfires to make up. The prisoner main character is so one note that he's boring, even when they hilariously introduce his dark past that only matters for about 1 minute of screen time and then it's not brought up for 2 full episodes where they only bring it up to go "Oh, by the way, he had a reason so it's totally forgivable" and then it's never mentioned again. Throw in a few wacky mad scientist characters, a few planks of wood as the Doctor and the main love interest and then you also have the "villain" characters. I was tempted to spoiler tag it when I say that it's routine for a villain to turn on them, try and murder them and then they just forgive them in the next line of dialogue, but then I also realised that this describes 3 separate characters in the show so it's not even a spoiler. The slow build of the first episode is just boring and I was really hoping that the introduction of the creatures would turn things around and it kind of did for about 2 minutes before it died again. Some of the deaths can be kind of brutal, especially when characters I didn't expect to die are killed off. The creatures however have a pretty massive flaw that removes them entirely as being a threat and really after the first 2 episodes, the creatures are just kind of a mild annoyance floating around. The main character of course makes them more dangerous though because despite him being a sudden genius who works out everything about them after his first encounter, apparently he never actually tells anyone the weak points he learnt or how they hunt. The story grinds to a halt towards the end when they just sit around and talk, revealing no new information that wasn't already clearly demonstrated already, or something we could have guessed ourselves. My favourite bit is when in the middle of what seems to be the final climatic "battle" they dedicate a full half of the episode to a woman giving birth and the characters just kind of hanging around and chatting about it. It didn't even take away from the battle because despite this being a huge event shown numerous times in the trailer, basically all the fighting happens off screen and despite there being an army of untold millions of the creatures, we only really have to deal with one or two. And that's one of the major issues of the show. It's an entire planet falling and being overrun. The show mentions 100,000 people on the planet, but it feels like there is never anything happening outside of our character's field of vision. They basically just travel from place to place, arriving, hanging out and then the creatures attack and they move on to the next place, rinse and repeat. In no way do I feel that thousands are dying by the minute. And of course the anime has them repeatedly bump into eachother over and over again. The world feels like it's made up entirely of 3 rooms and the cast of characters grows too large towards the end especially when most of them are generic and bland characters. There's one character in particular they introduce right at the end who seems like they only introduced to go "Hey! Remember this character? Huh? Remember them!?!?!?" but their presence was just there to dump totally unnecessary exposition about the planet which made the lore of the anime more confusing then it needed to be. Only not a 1 because its at least watchable and at times it can be funny-bad.
The CG isn't that bad quit fitting the story setting actually, the story is generic but not lack of nuance. Only 8 episodes the story is short and compacted, not mind blowing or has done anything special so feel free to look pass it but it still provide an ok enjoyable watching experience. Addressing the elephant in the room, the CG is NOT bad and I also care more about substance than looks, a lot of boomers just refuse to give it a go, but the overall the story arc, story telling, and story pacing of this show surpasses majority of the high 6 low7 show on MAL in my opinion.
