The story follows the main character Yuzuru Otonashi who lost his memories and waking up in an unknown highschool. When he first wake up, the first thing he sees is a pretty girl, yuri in a uniform with a machine gun. Yuri then told him that he is already dead and invites him to join the afterlife battlefront an organisation whom she founded with several other members. She then revealed that their aim was to fight against god for the cruel lives that they lead when they are living. Their main enemy is an ''angel'' who believed to be working under the god that is trying to get them to reincarnate. And so after otonashi joins them, they continue to fight against angel while ''attending school'' with other students in the school that is also known as ''NPCS'' or ''non player characters'' as they are not humans. At the same time, they continue to sabotage any school events or anything is related to angel itself. Along the way, they also find out the secrets of angel and the whole ''highschool'' system.
Angel beats is an really awesome anime that has a really very good ending. Not only that, it contains a reasonable amount of action, emotion and comedy... Like i said , this anime is really touching!!! So if you do not cry after watching this anime, you are really not in the right state of mind xP So for plot wise, it does not really has a solid one but rather i feel that it is pretty good. The plot really draws you in to watch further. For the characters, even though it has a wide variety of them, they are still easily distinguishably which is good. For the humour part, it is really first class. It might sounds kind of over rating but trust me i am not. I can promise it is one funny ass anime. Lastly the ending is really really good. It really does a huge impact on me. So much that it is overwhelming. A anime with a good ending is really hard to come by, so yeah this anime has achieved it.
To be fair, it still has its cons. One of them which i feel is the length of the anime. For a anime that is this good, i feel that it is a pity that it is so short. So maybe a season 2 would do the job :D Also, towards the end of the anime, it starts to get kind of boring. You know this is partly due to the story getting more and more tense and stuff. So the humour part really gets very little at the end and it can gets pretty serious.
For the song part, it is really really nice. The opening can easily be one of the best!!! Most of the songs are sung by a band ''girls dead monster'' in the anime. From what i heard, they exist in real life. Just for your info, they have a album called ''keep the beats'' with a lot of songs not featured in the anime. Well here goes:
1. My soul your beats by Lisa (OP 1)
2. My soul your beats~Rock version~ by Lia (OP 2)
3. Brave song by Aoi Tada (ED 1)
4. Ichiban no Takaramono by Lisa (Insert song)
5. Alchemy by Girls dead monster (Insert song)
6. Crow song by Girls dead monster (Insert song)
7. Shine days by Girls dead monster (Insert song)
8. Thousand enemies by Girls dead monster (Insert song)
9. My song by Girls dead monster (Insert song)
The songs are really super nice!! So if you have the time, try it :D Well all in all, the anime is definitely worth your time to watch. Trust me, you will not regret :D So if you are looking for an short, funny, good ending and a anime with a good plot. Angel beats is the one for you... Well happy watching!!
Ciao su~~
