Conclusion
Anime starts with the Game enthusiastic who for some reasons choose his characters with shorts and mask only and he got a girl too lol, thats shows us it’s anime not a real live. Anime comes with mind blowing visuals and Nice OP along with a over positive Protagonist.
Arts of the anime is good along with good action scenes, like fight between Sunraku and rabbit and I love how smoothly scenes shift without degrading the Arts.
I personally like this anime where you got the protagonist and other side characters are enjoying games to their fullest without any extra cliche to the story. Let’s hope this Journey to become more interesting.
