I really wanted to like this show. It started off with a decent premise; unfortunately, the main character never really grows throughout the season. She starts out as a girl scared of her power and ends up accepting her power, but never grows a backbone. Even when the BBEG is beating up her love interest right in front of her, she doesn't grow a spine. Even when he grabs her and kisses her full on the mouth, the worst she does it bite him. The writing is rather poor as well. For example, in the final episode, the mainbad guy is fast enough to dodge/block bullets, but not fast enough to dodge a falling chandelier. Gorilla and main bad guy lock fingers as part of a fight scene - which is ridiculous enough, but then in the next scene, she's let go of him. She's stronger, but he's faster, like seriously, if you're locking fingers, just hold on for dear life and beat the shit out of him with your other limbs - that would have been the way to handle that.
Sadly, poor writing and utter and complete lack of character growth on the MC's part make this a lackluster show. The side characters (Mean Girls, as in the movie) are the only ones with any real growth. If this was about them, it might have made for a decent show.

The Gorilla God's Go-To Girl — Girl Power be amplified to the max...to then be the harem hotspot magnet of suitors? This is just too plain... With every passing seasonal roundabout of shows that are a series of hits and misses, there is one VERY particular genre where I feel that it's more than the sole works themselves that create this lingering problem that is the "rise and fall" of their anime adaptations, which their niche target audience marketed to the rest of the world doesn't seem to come off as any bit legit at all. And my friends, that would be the classic Shoujo demographic,which has seen quite the dying trend of works that try to mimic every bit as possible like its Shonen counterpart, but that its rather limited vision portraying much to the fantasy and rom-com genres only exacerbates it being this "cheesy" puppy love that's all sorts of uncomfortable. And this is most likely the case for mangaka Shirohi's Gorilla no Kami kara Kago sareta Reijou wa Ouritsu Kishidan de Kawaigarareru a.k.a The Gorilla God's Go-To Girl, one slice of the typical Shoujo pie, that just plays it TOO safe and ends up appealing to barely anyone.
The only thing going for Gorilla no Kami, I'll admit, is in its setting, which is actually quite unique and never done before, where in the not-so-unique but generically average world, everyone is born with a blessing from an animal god that gives them powers unique to the animal that they're representative of. And this is what we get with the female MC of Sophia Reeler, where her animal blessing is one that's rare and unheard of: the aforementioned Gorilla god, which grants her super strength, speed, and agility. It's already very unusual to choose a Card of such luck, much more so that it's a young woman bearing that name while the others pick everything else that's common. This, however, becomes a problem when she's scouted by her kingdom's Royal Knights to become an apprentice knight, halting her supposed peaceful school life to a standstill, and becomes the centre of attention due to the Gorilla God's power between the aspiring knights who'll become part of the kingdom's forces.
That, in and of itself, creates the space for Sophia to meet her potential friends along the way, from the likes of the kingdom's prince, Louis Scarrel, as well as candidates-turned-close friends Isaac Sheehan and Eddie Pheles. Naturally, as you would expect of a Shoujo work, there are multiple instances of flirting moments between Sophia and the guys, but the issues are quite the systemic problem, starting with Sophia herself. You would expect your Shoujo female MC to have at least a spine (which is largely like Fruits Basket's Tohru Honda) to do the things they deem are appropriate and do them right, but you can tell the mark of a rookie writer like Shirohi when the female lead does not think straight, wanders and panders back and forth like a deer, and, most critically, doesn't have a sense of purpose enough to stand for her own values, much less averting to the damsel-in-distress character that needs other people to take her hint and do all of the processing. Sadly, for all that Sophia has going for her, she instead is being led by the very circumstances of the good and bad Prince Charming influences around her, hoping that some guy who fancies her will take her gist. It's a goddamn harem, for crying out loud, and not one of the best executions at that.
If you're wondering where this unknown studio of Kachigarasu came from, not to worry, it's the usual happenstance of corporate rebranding, of which this used to be under Encourage Films before the change in December 2023. For the 3rd-rate studio to go without any project since Winter 2023's Kaiko sareta Ankoku Heishi (30-dai) no Slow na Second Life a.k.a Chillin' in My 30s after Getting Fired from the Demon King's Army, it's quite the dry period for a studio that doesn't see itself being as active as compared to pre-COVID levels, though I'd assume it's the work of producers trying to avoid bringing a bad name to their shows by avoiding less-than-stellar studios, of which Encourage Films used to be one of a handful.
Still, it's the cheap-looking quality of the anime that you can't disguise even with the name change that's being obvious enough. And like it, the music is just plain mediocre at best, with Shugo Nakamura's OP being at the very least decent and acceptable, though I can't say the same for Megumi Ogata's ED, which is just too overcomposed for its own good, alongside the PowerPoint-esque visuals.
In truth, Gorilla no Kami is just your average molasses story that's just about the most Shoujo of Shoujos it can be. And while most of what's presented here aspires to be as Fruits Basket-y as possible, it always somehow ends up backfiring in that there's not much of substance going for it; only the lovey-dovey and flirting moments do make the count, and that's all.
Once again, another Shoujo work that belongs to the trash heap of pieces, adding to the count of increasingly bad series that misrepresent the greatness of the Shoujo demographic. How pathetic…

I didn’t know what to expect with such a peculiar title like The Gorilla God's Go-To Girl, but to my surprise, I found a light fantasy story with an unexpectedly well-executed romance. I had my doubts about watching this anime because I’m not a fan of stories where humans transform into animals. I can tolerate it to a certain extent (like in Fruits Basket), so I was worried about how the concept of blessings would be handled here. Thankfully, most characters keep their human form. Only one character actually transforms, and no, it’s not the female lead. The plot is fairly typical, an insecure girl suddenly gainsimmense power and everyone around her starts to take an interest in her. Despite that, it was surprisingly engaging. It’s not a reverse harem, which I appreciated a lot, the main character, Sophia, only shows interest in the male lead, Louis, and never wavers or plays around with others. That alone was refreshing, especially because I’m tired of unnecessary love triangles. On the downside, some conflicts were resolved way too quickly or in an unconvincing way, like the bullying toward Sophia, which was handled far too lightly.
If there’s one thing worth highlighting, it’s the development of the romance between Sophia and Louis. It felt natural and is a great example of how a romance can be well-developed in just 12 episodes. I was genuinely surprised, especially for a shoujo, and it was nice to see a couple come together halfway through the story instead of in the last minutes of the final episode.
That said, Sophia’s character was a bit frustrating at first. As a protagonist, she was too passive, always trying to go unnoticed or hide things, especially in the earlier episodes. Thankfully, she improves a bit by the end, and I have hope she’ll continue growing if we get a second season. I’m not familiar with the manga, so I don’t know how the story progresses there.
As for the animation, it’s pretty basic, but honestly, it’s rare to find a shoujo anime with high production quality, so I wasn’t expecting much to begin with.
Lastly, if you’re expecting constant battles just because Sophia joins the knights, you might be disappointed. The anime is more laid-back, with just enough action to support the story. But if what you’re really looking for is a solid romance with cute moments between the leads, a bit of comedy, and some fantasy sprinkled in, this could be a nice pick to relax with.
It’s not a groundbreaking story, and it doesn’t have the best visuals, but it stands out for offering a sweet and drama-free romance between the main couple, and sometimes, that’s more than enough.

Gorilla no Kami kara Kago sareta Reijou wa Ouritsu Kishidan de Kawaigarareru (ゴリラの神から加護された令嬢は王立騎士団で可愛がられる), which literally means 'The Lady Blessed by the Gorilla God Is Adored by the Royal Knights', aka The Gorilla God's Go-To Girl, is an enjoyable anime, thanks to how quirky the main character is. However, this has received so many criticisms, and they're not entirely wrong. § Overview This is a fantasy world where people receive blessings from animal gods. In the case of Sophia Riller, she receives the blessings of the 'Gorilla God,' the strongest gift that's most useful for combat. § I'll list the weaknesses of this show first becauseit is readily noticeable, then address them.
* It features slideshow-like animation on some frames. This is done, not because of anything subtextual. It's just a budget-saving shortcut. There have been many instances of this.
It goes without saying that it practises the trend of not adding facial details to people other than the lead characters, as well as supporting characters.
— I answer that: For its genre of shoujo and the utter unseriousness of the story, I don't mind, but people will notice and rate this show low regardless.
* Since it's shoujo, it has æsthetics that I, as a guy, have to tolerate, namely, how Sophia's love interest, Louis Scarrel, has to be shown with flowers in the background once every episode.
— I dislike this, but this anime assumed you're a young girl, so my opinion regarding this point is moot.
* Corollary to the point above is how generick the character designs are.
— I won't argue back because this is true.
* Even though Sophia is overpowered, she allows her school bullies to push her around. And when forced by others to apologise, the bullies seemed meek.
— I answer that: It's not the same type of mean bullying seen in anime such as My Happy Marriage, The Too-Perfect Saint, or Honey, Lemon, Soda. The bullying is meant to annoy Sophia, but, without exerting effort, Sophia wins and the bullying backfires.
* Critics complain of plot holes.
— I know, but this is not a serious anime, so it's forgivable. One might think such plot holes are deliberate to introduce absurd and funny situations.
§ This anime's strength is Sophia Riller
Because of how funny Sophia's antics may be, even in her naïveté, this trumps all the weaknesses of this anime. For example, she can easily escape being imprisoned, but escaping means the person who imprisoned her will be bullied even more. This is one example where viewers object to the apparent absurdity. Storywise, however, this makes sense: Its brand of comedy is absurdity. If she uses her power indiscriminately, the show only becomes boring and loses its comedick aspects.
I won't belabour this point as examples are prevalent if you watch this anime with open eyes.
§ Side note: Charactonymy
I'm not sure if this is a strength, and many people will be neutral about this. The characters' surnames are related to their gifts.
Sophia Riller: Riller in katakana si リーラー or riiraa. This reminds you of the rilla part of gorilla.
Louis Scarrel: Scarrel sounds like squirrel.
Alene: Her katakana is アレーネ, so it sounds more like a ray nay, and sounds like the French word for spider, which is araignée.
§ Conclusion
I am only giving this a 5 out of 10, but marking this as recommended. This anime is funny, but it has flaws that cannot be ignored. One might have preferred if this had better animation or had tighter writing, and I agree. It's just that it's funny enough that it's easy for me to overlook its flaws.
NOTA BENE: A rating of 5 out of 10 means that 1) I find this anime to be average, 2) I enjoyed it to some extent, but it has some flaws. 3) Or simply, I rank it below my 6's but above my 4's.
A 5 means a passing score. If you're the kind of viewer who treats anything below a 7 as irredeemable, I'd encourage a broader, more nuanced approach to rating.
My enjoyment spectrum lies from 4 to 10. If I have scored an anime below 4, I actively dislike it.

Good enough anime, but a bit too generic, it's hard to blend all these genres and themes into 12 episodes. The development of the couple's relationship is the main attraction of this anime, which is sometimes sidelined by the fantasy plot, so it is romcom heavy. In that regard it achieved what it wanted, can't say the same about the fantasy theme. The fantasy side of the anime was just the right amount and perfectly fine up except for the whole Daybreak plot, there wasn't really a need for it to be the main plot for most of the second half of the anime, it's too ambitiousfor a 12 ep anime that's trying to be both fantasy and romcom. Instead of the Daybreak plot there should've been something that doesn't eat up that much screentime and doesn't take over as the main focus in a few episodes, sometimes less is more.
The romcom side was more focused in the first half but it was still present in the second half, it even felt a bit weird that the finale of the anime was more around the Daybreak plot, it felt out of place compared to how for the most part of the anime the romcom side was more focused, it was like 65-35.
The characters were fine, they weren't too complicated and it's expected from a romcom, the couple had the chemistry and the rest just worked out, not too much to say about that.
There are some really poorly animated scenes that I just have to mention.
All in all it's a decent anime, 7 feels a bit generous, but it's definitely not a 6. Pretty easy watch, if you look for a light romcom that leans into the fantasy theme then it's recommended.

This anime made me realize I need to use my power of hate more so here I am. The Gorilla God’s Go-To Girl is a fantasy romance that for reasons I still don’t understand has a comedy tag. I didn’t notice anything particularly funny, but sure, maybe I just don’t get good humor. In this world, when you turn sixteen, you receive a blessing from an animal god. It can range from something totally useless to one of the most powerful beings. In this case, the Gorilla God is considered the strongest in terms of combat, and our heroine, Sophia, ends up with this blessing making herthe ideal candidate to become a knight. Which is exactly what she doesn’t want…
When I first saw the cover (not the current one, but the original with just Sophia, Louis, and the gorilla), I assumed it would be more of a gag-comedy type anime. The concept felt fun and kind of absurd in an interesting way. But then I realized it was mostly a romance with light fantasy elements. Not what I was hoping for but still, it could’ve worked. Unfortunately, it didn’t. I’ll try to avoid spoilers, though most of my criticisms would be easier to explain with them.
Let’s start with the characters.
Sophia is, unfortunately, a blank-slate protagonist with barely any personality. She’s basically a doormat for half the anime, and in the other half, she tries not to stand out while somehow standing out more than anyone else. This type of character is everywhere, and I’ve never liked it. Sure, when I was reading Wattpad at 2 a.m. in ninth grade, it was fun but those were books written by other teenagers.This story was written by adults, so I expected at least some personality.
She’s clearly meant to be relatable to teenage girls (it’s a shoujo web manga, after all), but she ends up being relatable to no one. The show presents her passiveness as kindness, but even in the moments where she could have shown genuine kindness, we don’t actually see it. That just makes her feel even more flat and underwritten. On top of that, I’d say she’s just plain stupid—some scenes genuinely made me question her ability to think, not just mine.
As for the other female characters there’s not much to say. They contribute almost nothing to the story.
Even though it doesn’t officially have a reverse-harem tag, it definitely gets close. Not quite there, but teetering on the edge. There are a lot of male characters. In stories like this, it’s common to rely on tropes—but that doesn’t mean the characters should be completely one-dimensional. You can write familiar archetypes and still give them unique traits or development. Want to write a kuudere love interest? Great just give him something more to work with. Sadly, that doesn’t happen here.
The main love interest is as generic as they come: rich, handsome, admired by everyone, kind but unreadable. The rest of the cast follows suit: we’ve got the golden retriever-type guy (who, honestly, was the most enjoyable—at least we saw him struggle and grow a little), the kuudere, the flirt, and so on. You can probably guess all of them. They’re not the worst part of the show they just don’t bring anything new. And of course, they all love Sophia. She’s so special, so adored. At this point, just call it a reverse harem and be done with it.
What bothers me the most is the wasted potential. The premise could have made for a solid show: a girl with a powerful blessing learning to control it, training to become a knight, with some sweet romance along the way. Nothing groundbreaking, but still a charming little story. But the knight training is rushed and barely explored. Instead, we get way too many episodes of the characters just wandering around or stuck in drawn-out romantic moments that go nowhere. Sometimes, an episode ends and I realize literally nothing happened. Even a basic slice-of-life anime feels more eventful.
They could’ve added more training scenes, or moments where the main character actually struggles to improve. But nope she’s just naturally good at everything.
The only character with real potential was the “villain.” He started off interesting, but was completely ruined within 15 minutes and turned into yet another shallow character.
Visually, the world is cute bright, colorful, and generally nice to look at. But we mostly see the same three locations over and over, so… it gets dull pretty fast.
Overall, this feels like a bad Wattpad story from 2015: a bland female lead who’s basically a Mary Sue, a bunch of love interests with barely any personality, a wasted villain, and a story full of empty scenes.
Who might enjoy this?
If you’re feeling nostalgic for old-school Wattpad romances and just want something average not good, but familiar this might give you what you want.

Right in the middle - nothing special, but not bad. Animation is that annoying style where anyone that's not a main character does not even have a face. Half the "animation" is pan and scan, so many scenes are like looking at a manga page someone is moving a camera over. The characters are 100% cookie cutter generic fluff, and the protagonist is your typical OP clueless teenager. But the author thinks they are clever and original, and it's - gasp! - a girl. That's the plot in a nutshell. Clueless girl with near super-powers has all the cute guys chasing her. I almost feel generousgiving it a 6, but it's a decent time-killer and fun. Albeit bizarrely animated. Seriously - how can they kiss with noses that look like they can slice bread? And of course everyone is chasing everyone else trying to get together, but they are all so clueless that it's a wonder there will even be a next generation. Maybe they are counting on the rabbit gods to save the species?
Sound is decent, score is forgettable, animation is average. Nothing stands out as especially good or terrible. If you need to waste a few hours, it's worth a watch. But I'd watch the 7th Prince or Raising Kids if I had to choose.

Six, six-six, the number of... ups! So, I'll break the tie? I'm in! Well, Well, well. What do we feel about this anime? If nothing else, it looks beautiful. Lets go. Visuals. Except one point, everything looks gorgeous. The off point is the general body looks. I don't know how else to explain it. The silhouette. The shape of the body. Beside that: good art style, gorgeous faces, gorgeous landscapes, gorgeous focus points (a flower, vegetables), gorgeous background layers. gorgeous, vivid color palette. Very nice designs all around. I'm even ok with the whole "lets make the mob people faceless" angle. I understand why, no problems there.The cinematography is ok. Well, even if it might lack sometimes, the drawings are decent enough for you to still enjoy what you're seeing. The animation is generally ok. The VFX are ok...
Audio. Well, it is ok I guess. The OP is good (for this genre), I'd say. The visuals are also good enough. The ED is kinda weird, maybe a good song but dunno if its a good one for this anime. But the visuals are good, a poster style. The mixing is done alright, nothing to bother you. The VAs did good.
And now, the fun part. I'll start this by saying that I know the sauce. I don't remember all of it, but I do know the main points and how it end. And I also remember that I was kinda meh about it, but dunno why :))) So imagine my surprise when I realised I was not completely put off. I'm not saying the adaptation is better, maybe this was the best part. Anyway, lets talk about this anime only.
The premise is decent enough. It sounds interesting. Yes, nowadays we get a lot of anime with some form of "soft magic system", as in "at the age of xx yo the kids with get some kind of magic ability". Here, we have animal gods. They bless people and the people get some attributes. The problem is that you don't have "levels", an xp bar, something specific. No, you get more or less of said attributes, hence the "soft" part, as not properly defined. And thats a problem because then the author can change the rules whenever he wants to and blame it on "I never said he/she can't do that!". And that feels like a cheat hack for writers. But wait, there's more. Some gods might bless once-per-person-in-a-lifetime, some gods can "give blessing" to multiple people. Oh, goody. And apparently if you, as a character, don't like the "first" person you can kill him/her and a new person might get that sought-after blessing. *sigh* I love soft magic systems soooo much...... Moving on.
The world-building is minimal, and thats ok for now. The story follows our main heroine who got herself an unique power. And every stuff about her now is "oh, no, what to do? I hate this power, I'm so lucky I have this power, I hate this power, I'm happy I have it". Some might call it character development, I call it bullsht. What kind of person was she before the ceremony? Is she a different person in the last episode? If not, it means that power is just along for the ride. Oh, good news. It seems I'm starting to remember why the source was not that great :))) But anyway. We experience and we learn about the world through her. Thats a good way to do it, we learn along with her. But doing it minimal, at shallow levels, thats not ok. Yes, the first episodes were decent enough, this anime giving you some good vibes. But little by little those vibes fade out. But luckily, under those vibes is fluffiness. You know, the giddy feelings you get/enjoy when watching romance. And yes, the characters have some kind of sweet moments going on. Even if you're not the target demographic, you might still get some enjoyment out. In the end, thats just it. A kinda meh fantasy with a kinda romance thing going on. The story is not great, especially in this anime adaptation. If I remember correctly, there was no backstory for the baddie, at least not enough to earn himself an entire episode. Plus, in the last episode, the fight is kinda meh and makes you raising an eyebrow because the logic of actions is a bit sus, whereas in the book, she makes him focus on her deliberately, implying some kind of planning, meaning a little bit of a better character. Not much, but it helps. And its too bad, because the female character kinda needed every bit of help to make her be more "normal". She's a teen, trying to deal with life, and she gets the "macho" gorilla blessing. Not muscles physically, but having the power to break doors just by lightly touching them its not the ideal way to appear feminine. Oh, right. She wished for the peacock or something like that, but she doesn't care enough for her to try and take a better care of her hair and such, you know, something the girls her age do. That was a bit "hmmmm". But I'm a guy, what do I know? I might be wrong here. So, she gets a "cool" power, sought after by all the guys, so that becomes a plot device. Nice going :)))) Because now, that power is used as a tool to introduce and make those guys notice her. Yes, they like her for her personality not for her blessing per se, I know, but cmon... At least the guys are portrayed in a way that doesn't puts her above them by default. I can't believe this is a point for comparison nowadays... Yes, the guys are sometimes funny and interesting to follow. I even like the fact that she's strong enough to rip a person's head clean off (if she wants to), but the guys still keep trying to protect her. Until she saves the day, that is. Obviously :)) But it is funny to watch that dynamic of "I wanna protect you. No, I also wanna protect you too."
What else? Next, should I talk about the pacing? Well, I could, but I wont :)) This review is getting a little chubby. Just watch the damn thing and see for yourself. Watch it until episode 8, I think, and then just power through the last episodes. Yes, those episodes are a bit off-putting. Not bad, but when you're just waiting for the show to end it feels like a drag.
So, its a somewhat meh anime. Even if the story is not that amazing, even if sometimes the plot feels a bit icky, even if the character development is kinda missing in complexity, even if.... Hmm, wait, thats a lot of problems actually..... but at least it has a nice art style, right? :))) I'm gonna rate this a 5. Barely. With... Hmmm, I guess mixed feelings. For the idea, the visuals and some kind of fluff and relax vibe. It has a lot a problems for sure, but for some reason I'm not annoyed with this anime.
Have a lovely day.

I started watching it without any expectations, just to have something playing in the background while I ate. However, as the weeks went by, I found myself singing the opening song and getting attached to the protagonist. Sophia has just the right amount of sweetness to avoid being annoying, and although there are the usual cliché anime situations, it's still nice to watch. In a way, this anime took me back to those times when I watched anime simply for the fun of it, not because I "had" to keep up with the latest series. It even made me wonder what kind of animal blessing Iwould like to have — a feeling I hadn't experienced since my teenage anime-watching days.

I watched the first episodes and was genuinely impressed. Sophia is a well-established, lovable main character (at first), and side characters like Eddy and Isaac are equally endearing (also at first). The world-building and concept are pretty cool too! The way they portrayed Sophia’s power being linked to the gorilla god and other characters’ powers to different animals was really interesting. Guessing which animal each character’s power represented was pretty fun. As a gorilla lover, I was very satisfied. ❤️ But as soon as mid-episode 5 hits, everything crumbles. It turns into a reverse harem romance, and the romantic writing feels like it came from a middle schooler.The cringe is so overpowering I really had to power through to finish the anime.
I also feel like the harem dynamic ruined any emotional attachment to the characters; they ended up feeling really hollow.
In the end, I liked the concept and the characters at first, but it completely fails as a romantic anime and becomes really boring from episode 6 onward. It was disappointing to say the least but the first episodes were great.

I have watched a bunch of romance anime, harem, reverse harem, slice of life, drama , truly disturbing ones. Even those were not so devoide of plot and characters as this one. The protagonists weren't actual characters, just surface level drawings, no progression, nothing. But i can excuse everything as long as it is entertaining. And this was absoltely boring, dulling and dragging me eisode after episode. I finished it becase my little sister wanted it and even her, who loved ya and romance, hated it. My lowest review ever is 7, and this will get 1 because i can't choose 0.

Gorilla God's Go-To Girl is not a chest beating anime in either the ways of action, or making ones heart pound. The story is nothing special and focuses more on the romanticism of a young girl's heart dealing with her gorilla strength, with no real conflict making itself apparent until the last two episodes where it feels like it finally establishes the "problems" of this world, but then doesn't explore it much further and even at the end could make a viewer ask, "Are our hero's the bad guys?" This could have strictly stuck to a school or slice of life setting, but instead flounderson its potential.
The characters, while likeable do not go much deeper than their on face tropes, you have the young romantic of a protag who all the guys fall for, your evil rich female rival (Who actually turned out to be I think my favorite at the end of it), and then the vanilla toast main boy who she falls head over heels in love with, without much reason being presented, other than "he's a cute good guy"
The music is light and orchestral, but nothing stood out that could be picked out of a lineup when compared to other shows, even the opening and closing is forgettable
Animation, hoo boy, there are definitely parts you can tell they cut corners and they did the bare minimum from not animating faces in the crowd, the janky movements, the use of cuts to avoid actually animating, it definitely is a show for the ears vs the eyes.
It's genre is the same old hat of a girl who all the boys fall for, while the reason for her is a little more funny as she is essentially a super human with all her power, it feels like they could have explored that more, and they left it on the table.
If it got a second season and explored the world more, perhaps this review could be updated, but for now, unless you're looking for a pallet cleansing anime after something more intense, and wanna watch a series in a day and be done, there are others worth more your time
