Authors note:
lol@Narutards etc etc etc.. More drama centering around the worlds most annoying anime. I swear, this site revovles around Bleach, Naruto, One Piece based drama. I just got some advice for all you fanboys..
GO TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT. The manga/anime world doesn't end at those 3 or 4 animes. You never know, you might actually enjoy some of the not so mainstream animes.
anyway..
I couldn't find anything to specifically like or hate about the animation, so I left it out. lol.
Review:
Arakawa Under the Bridge, what to say about it. Unlike most others, this story is not predictable. Perhaps that's because there really isn't much of a story at all. Guy almost dies, gets saved by girl who lives under a bridge and that about sums it up. Everything else is almost totally random. It pretty much deals with day to day life of living under the bridge with a community of nutcases where the main character is considered a "upstanding part of normal society". Yet another "random factor" of Arakawa Under the Bridge, Ric will try to be serious and Nino will reply with something completely random or off topic by a normal or sane standard.
All in all, Arakawa Under the Bridge is very entertaining, very funny and sometimes kinda cute(When the moment doesn't get ruined by one of the nutcases that live under the bridge). One thing to note though, the story progresses rather quickly(Which I personally like about it). And there's very little to no background story on the characters, So some may find those qualities a turn off.
