Really, during the first episodes, I thought I was dealing with an underrated anime. But... my expectations were almost lost... in the middle to the end, especially the end, the story suddenly changed its focus in a strange way and came out of that fan-war atmosphere... but, well... it wasn't a very bad anime. .. In any case, I can't say that I haven't seen a worse anime this season! The story had a terrible setback. The characters and characterization were somewhat good. Graphics and animation were not bad! And I must say that I fell in love with the opening and ending! that was perfect!! It was one of the best of this season! In general, I think it was such an anime that was worth watching and I did.

This is a show where the directing is often quite beautiful, but the story is vacant and empty. It feels like an empty product - without a message or development it really wants to impart to its audience. We've all seen it - a show that promises some sort of story and then waits until near the end to actually start delivering. That's what Bucchigiri does. It so transparently feels like a waste of time, with reused gags every episode that don't put any sort of new spin on them. Probably the worst and most contentious element is the main character. A flawed main character can be a great and fascinating thing, but the main character in this show is such an awful friend but without any seeming narrative reason to be and with so little character development of any kind that it's just frustrating to watch him when he's onscreen.

I was looking forward to seeing a fun high school delinquent story with a twist but instead I got Bucchigiri?!. Most of the characters are thoroughly unlikeable and the story is both bland and boring. You do get a few characters that provied comic relief but their gags become rather predictable. The story does pick up at episode 10 and stays that way until the final episode (12.) But there lies the real problem, the fact that the show could have been at least interesting and/or fun but we have to waid through nine far-below-par episodes to get there. Very disappointing.
