C: The Money of Soul and Possibility Control - Reviews

Spoilers (Duh)

Historia

Este tipo entra al sector financiero de Japón y hacen peleas estilo Pokémon con unos avatares que representan una parte de su futuro robado por la entrada a ese mismo sector, por ganar dinero y no caer en la bancarrota. La historia te deja una sola enseñanza, que todos hay que recordar: EL DINERO DOMINA EL MALDITO MUNDO. Es muy interesante como reúnen y ejemplifican los conceptos de economía en la serie: las inflaciones, las acciones, la desaparición de países, etc. Parece que la serie seguía una formula Shonen típica, pero el final le da un giro y le aporta mucha calidad a la serie. Otra cosa que me hubiera gustado que profundizaran, era en los avatares (o como se llamen) que usaban, en teoría eran partes del futuro que te habían quitado como garantía por tu entrada al sector financiero, ver que significaban esos avatares, aparte del protagonista (¿el tipo beso a su hija no nacida?) me hubiera ver sus significados.

Personajes

Vemos un progreso en el personaje principal (algún día recordare nombres lo juro), como va cambiando su perspectiva sobre el dinero y como hace que funcione el dinero, como nos hemos aprisionado con él y demás. Al final aprende algo y ve como sus acciones tiene pocos efectos en la realidad, porque el solo no puede cambiar la realidad. Los demás personajes ya tienen un punto de vista fijo, y no hay tanto desarrollo en ellos, es más interesante ver como contrastan sus puntos de vista en las batallas.

Final

Lo disfrute bastante, en ningún momento el protagonista entra en modo Jesús (permanente) y resuelve todo, al contrario, aunque se la rifo y salvo mucha gente y ayudo a prevenir la desaparición de Japón, al final ve que sus acciones no sirvieron de mucho, solo afecto en gran medida su vida y te reiteran el papel del dinero como sustentador general de la sociedad actual, muy interesante los conceptos que manejan, pero muchas cosas que no sepamos ya no aportaron.

Producción

• Animación: Nada que mencionar.
• OST: Nada que mencionar.
• Openings y endings: Nada que mencionar.

Veredicto

Una serie muy interesante en lo que plantea, aporta un punto de vista hacia la economía muy entretenido y para gente que sepa más del tema, la va a disfrutar más. Pudo haber sido un trabajo de mucha más calidad, pero por lo que hicieron bien, se queda con 4 estrellas.

If we take a look athe the votes I gave to this anime (Story, Animation, etc.), it may seem odd that the overall vote is quite higher, and It may seem even more strange since in my anime list is listed as 4,5/5.
This because the show in overall has much more value than its parts.

STORY

Story stars like a Slice of Life anime where the main character wants to hit on a girl but he can't afford to take her out on a date.
Here gets intresting, because faces a common problem in many students and even alduts (sadly, world is cruel).
But, on a normal day, he finds his bank account full of money.
This because he got in a world where via battles you can gain lots of money by fighting other people, but the actions you make may have terrible effects on the real world.
In fact like a bank contract, to join this world, you shall give in warranty your future.

Now i can't really talk much more about the story itself, by the time the anime is only 11 episodes long, so everything could be spoiler.

ANIMATION AND SOUND

The anime was not financed to be the anime of the year, so animation and sound are pretty average, neither good or bad. That's all.

CHARACTERS

To fully get the idea of what are we watching we have to see the most common of people in it, in order to get the idea of "What if this would actually happen to me?" with our MC being a rather good boy and facing a good amount of enemies that are stereotyped yet all different one by one.

THE ONE THING I HATE

This show, frankly, made only ONE ERROR.
Putting in love stroy between Msyu and the main character.
Like it would have been much better without it anc focusing on the main concept of the money.

THE ENDING

I've heard people saying the ending of the anime is awful.
Like it gives you nothing.
In my honest opinion, it's perfect.
Now, I don't want to get into spoilers, but it gives you the idea of "As long as you want white to exist, there must be black".
It's a mere example, but if you watched the show, you should understand.


OVERALL SENTENCE

The show was quite enjoyable, and in some points rather good, I personally hate hearing "professional reviewers" giving this anime a rather bad vote, because it IS actually good.

And frankly, they're just 11 episodes, just watch it already. 

This anime is incredible. As an ecomomic student, I found it both entertaining and educational in a way that is very difficult to accomplish. However, the story itself, once it gets past the first few episodes, becomes very confusing and ratehr disjointed. The anime itself is very interesting, showing in a new light the way that money can affect the world around us. The main character shows a certain charming naivety, which is both endearing and rather annoying to the viewer, but nonetheless entertaining. The line fantastical line that the anime follows, that of the battles and the companions, makes this an especially attractive anime, as the idea of having a compainion that is the embodiment of some part of our essence always is. This anime provides a partially, though not 100% correct, educational econ lesson, and an entertaining and dramatic story. The character interaction could use some more work, and the story needs better linkage in its elements, but the show itself was not bad. Finally, as an overall score......5

This 11 episode anime is pretty much an entire economics 101 college course in an 11 episode anime. Except unlike economics class this show is actually alot of fun while also being informative in an intresting manner. Basically college student Kimimaro is broke and struggles to make ends meet his mom and dead are both dead so  theres no help from them. One day Kimimaro ends up in the financial district a universe where he can make money to use in the real world. He simply needs to fight proxy battles and win to earn his money and if he loses he also loses some of his future. 

Story- Simple story Kimimaro wants to lead a normal life and go about his days with a wife and children but this dream soon becomes unreachable as he is thrust in to the world of macro economics where he becomes so powerful he can bring entire nations to ruin through the  universe of the Financial district.

Animation- Simple fight scenes are neat nothing to special. Art style in the anime is overall kind of generic.

Sound- The dub is made by funimation its not there best work but it gets the job done.

Characters- Again nothing special Kimimaro is a college student he is not that smart but he has a good heart.

His asset or partner in the financial district is Mysu a elf girl wearing some weird red devil bikini again typical red headed hot headed but he cares for kimimaro.

Masakaki is the game master and the one who runs the financial district and enjoys toying with peoples futures.

Then we have Mikuni the charasmatic king of the financial district he is like Kimimaro good at heart but intelligent.

Q is Mikuni's partner and he is dressed as a gothic lolita and like other goths has a stoic nature. 

This is not an anime with intresting characters or cool art or impressive animation. Its a concept driven anime you can legit learn about actual finances with this anime both macro and micro economics are nicely described and thoughtout. Very underated anime and all the negative reviews are probably from people who dont understand these concepts or frankly dont care to understand them. Very underated anime and I really thing if you like the idea of economics or you just dont get it watch it you will get an answer.

what seemed like an interesting concept that grows very stale after the first 2 episodes.  I grew bored with the series; no idea why it has over 4 stars on here.  Lack of cohesive story(even for  anime), the characters aren't well developed, Monster/ creature designs while ineresting never get fully fleshed out with the "battling system" nor abilites. 

    the story never really resolves nor explains anything satisfactorily.  not the absolute worse but worth a pass IMO.
