Aria Anime Review - AnimeEveryday Anime Reviews

[@hellotelephone1]

Watching Aria is for me like going on vacation. You just feel like you are taken somewhere. Its an amazing show.

[@TheAverageAnimeFan]

AnimeEveryday the only anime reviewer who's angelic voice could have me fall into a wonderful peaceful sleep.

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

AverageAnimeFan You've figured out my super power.

[@LouTalksAnimeNow]

[@milestripes]

as a typical male who love action, shounen and blah blah score for me about this anime : aria the animation : 8.6/10 aria the natural: 7.8/ 10 aria the origination : 9.95/10 !!! i watch this anime about 4 years ago and even today i still remember this series.this anime will make you so relax. i understand some people would DROP because its slow paced, but HELL, the story,the character, the music is my top 5 ANIME OF ALL TIME. if you drop it, give it a chance. and you know why this whole series is masterpiece. you will feel its realistic feel of the character and flow of time changing. and it would make you wiser that nothing can last forever like it did for me. it changing me and and thank you aria, thank you so much for give me this ride. this anime would linger me for 60 years to come

[@penguindrummer252]

>9.95

[@cgorder5059]

"Sure it's sad to know that there won't be any new episodes..." And then we were blessed with Aria the Avvenire.

[@Normal-Person]

I just finished this show. It skyrocketed to my top 3 list.

[@DJVulpus]

Hooray, more exposure for such a gem of a show! I think you captured what makes Aria so unique and compelling and I'm already having urges to rewatch it ha

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

DJVulpus Thank you! making this video made me re-watch a few episodes too.

[@MisterProtocol]

An excellent review of my favorite series. For each of the three seasons, the production team headed for the real Venice...including, once, during the feast of Redentore, which they stumbled into all unknowing, to their sorrow. The original manga shows many scenes drawn straight from the real Venice, since it's really just a love poem to Venice, and so the anime also shows Venice in most of its outdoor shots. You can visit almost all of these settings IRL. As a result, if and when you visit today's Venice, you may have the same experience I did: a peculiar form of mental double vision, where what you are looking at is overlaid by the setting of Aria. Talk about magical experiences! I almost expected to run into Cait Sith down some small alley. It's just too bad the semi-submerged palazzo built over an onsen doesn't actually exist. Now, THAT would be magical!

[@penguindrummer252]

I love this show to an unhealthy degree.

[@penguindrummer252]

***** It's ironic if you look at it from that way yeah.

[@transformers121000]

7.8/10 too much water :/

[@user-bu3xt6mj4s]

Damn IGN, I give this a 10/10

[@domfromfastfurious3502]

9.4/10 Too wet.

[@AkramBham]

After watching your review I went on to watch this series and all I can say is thank you for recommending it :) It was an amazing experience and journey the last season was like magic honestly ^^

[@eclipsesonic]

Aria is my all-time favourite slice-of-life Anime. I honestly can't see another SoL Anime topping this for me. It's just the perfect, relaxing, cosy, feel good Anime and the setting, atmosphere and soundtrack all compliment each other wonderfully. I definitely give the whole series a 10/10.

[@14-18_Highway_MPG]

Its killing me, WHO DID ALICIA MARRY! Who did you think it was Anime Everyday

[@rodrigopacheco12]

yeah, i was screaming that to the screen when it suddently popped up. Like, 50 something episodes and this was never addressed?? What?

[@beverage7335]

I think they addressed it in the manga I believe- I will have to look back and see

[@Jarhead1021]

Only got to this anime now but glad to see how there’s reviews or talks about it

[@strafe_breaker3440]

Thank you for making such a nice review, yes it is very hard to pinpoint the beauty of this anime but you were able to deliver words that justified its intent. An anime for more mature open minded viewers somewhat free from the stereotypical kinds but does not fail to impart memorable scenes/stories that sometimes (in my case always) wish you were there just to be away from it all. It's true that many Anime past and present are known for its fan services but I never really use the word objects nor does it bother me nor reduce my respect for the female characters involved, its just part of the culture, besides fan services doesn't even need to have the sexuality theme, even a harmless swimsuit episode is enough to call it fan service and Aria had (if my memory serves me right) one but non the less it was executed in a very subtle manner but never fails to tickle the imagination of fans seeing their favorite gondolier showing some more skin (for lack of a more subtle word) than just seeing them in their usual uniforms even for one episode only. Speaking of new episodes Aria The Avvenire ep 1 is out since last December 2015 as part of the celebration of the 10th year anniversary of Aria the Animation pilot episode and it retained the beauty of this anime and I love the fact that Hazuki Erino reprised her role as Akari with a more mature voice for her, still no ep 2 but I'm hoping the series pushes through and maybe more merchandises along with it, would really love to have articulated figs of all the main characters of this series with their gondolas.

[@lainfiquette]

I recommend the manga as well, they did a really good job in the anime of translating the artist/writer's work over into the animation.

[@LVC85costa]

hell yes, im following this guy. no bs fan service anime.

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

LVC85costa haha! thanks :D

[@truefantasia23]

Nozomi Entertainment is currently running a Kickstarter Campaign (until September 11) to create an English dub for the HD release of ARIA the Animation. Go look it up and show your support for this wonderful series!

[@RMoribayashi]

One of my top 3 anime series. The one complaint I repeatedly see in reviews is the overuse of the "deformed" style. Because they followed the manga style so closely they neglected to realize that a deformed reaction shot lasts a single panel, while the animation of it might last 10 or more seconds and be quite jarring, taking you out of the mood of the scene.

[@RMoribayashi]

My personal nit to pick is time. Measured by the 6 month Martian seasons the manga takes place over a 3 to 4 (Earth) year period. The first anime picked stories out of sequence since there was no guarantee any more would be made. This stretched Akari's apprenticeship at Aria Co. to an unrealistic 7+ years, (two before the first episode).

[@beverage7335]

Aria was my childhood, it is my favorite anime of all time tbh

[@jrpgcentral3237]

Never seen the show and just stumbled across this review but this music... Is fucking beautiful... Like I'm in my feeling just hearing a few seconds of it

[@Zagoreni02A]

Aria is the best anime ever to me. It detrone even the mighty One Piece. Due been unenployed for a while, and often alone i become quite depressive and also hyphondric. But this series would make me smile. I am so glad that i watch it and have all manga volumes, it is one of very few things that keep me afloat (that how severe my depression is).

[@BrutalToad]

This was a nice throwback to one of my favourite childhood manga back when this was just published ^^

[@LooseArrowBoy]

I really enjoyed this anime despite putting it on hold for about 1-2 years because I forgot about it half way through the second season. I have to say it feels a little drawn out when they overly emphasize Akari's perspective of beauty and it goes in circles about why something is so wonderful, but it only happens for 5mins within an episode. I've actually been so impacted by this anime that I'm I want to do a review for it even though I'm not familiar with reviewing that's why I'm here to get some ideas haha. My review will be more sarcastic, but hitting the main points discussed in reviews such as yours. Also the reason I love this anime is the way it ended. Instead of feeling "omg it's finally over that was good," I felt "NOO why is it over!!" The last season would not have been as good as it was without the enjoyable and constructive progression of the previous seasons. You have to put in the time into this anime to fully enjoy it, but it will return your efforts. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but from my understanding did the colonists transport some of the original buildings from Venice to New-Venice? I believe it was mentioned in 'The Origination' It also explains why that had to be renovated.

[@Akira_San101]

Aria has to be one of my all time favourites along with Sora no Woto (Sound of the sky), Kaleido Star, Croisée in a Foreign Labyrinth and Hanasaku Iroha. I highly recommend you review those ones too. They are all so fantastic. For now I'm waiting for the special ova of Aria to come out. :D

[@christianmichels7105]

this series seems really chill.

[@bubbatewasder5299]

Just finished this today, ending so bittersweet

[@MrJoezapyofrulers]

i heard of this one recently, but didnt know exactly what it was about. i think i will be watching this soon, thanks!

[@BouncyBalling]

Wow, this anime actually looks really good. I get such a peaceful vibe from it, I don't know why. I think I'll watch it!

[@EdgardoCL94]

+Creepsy Skittlez How it was? :)

[@NashVtube]

I just a simple personal, i see Aria so i press a subscrib button

[@aria980]

It's rare to see a review of ARIA, thanks for taking it on :). I love the manga more, the animation feels a little drawn out for me since there were only 11 volumes.

[@capnfoo]

This show helped get me through manic depression.

[@kuronekohong9743]

I haven't watched Aria yet. I was debating for awhile if I should or not but after watching your review, I finally made up my mind to do so. Good job on your review. I can see that you've put in alot of effort into making it. Keep up the great work!

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

Kuroneko Hong Thanks buddy! hope you enjoy it when you watch it :)

[@kuronekohong9743]

AnimeEveryday - Anime Reviews i sure will! It'll be thanks to you!

[@OPFan14]

Excellent review, you really covered all your points in a very coherent and convincing way. This was also the first video I watched from you, so you left a pretty good impression. Plus, it helps that I share the same opinion of Aria as you, as it is my absolute favorite show of all time. Its just really nice to see the few, but dedicated fans like you spread the word of this lesser known title. It even topped Cowboy Bebop in my eyes, and I really love that show. And as an aside, I could not help but see a few parallels between this show and Bebop. I mean yeah, Bebop is more pessimistic than Aria (I mean just look at the Mars depicted in each series), but they both follow an episodic structure, have a stronger focus on the characterization of its cast, feature an overarching plot, and employ the use of a spectacularly fitting and melodic soundtrack. But I digress. Since you mentioned it, I am curious as to what these "all time greatest story" episodes of Aria are. Have you considered a video dedicated to talking about the best episodes of the series, or perhaps quickly addressing them in a Q&A?

[@miva1214]

probably eps 9 of the origination. That episode is so wonderful i even have the urge to cry only from remembering it.

[@OPFan14]

+M.Fariz Masyhuri Oh, that episode is fantastic, easily one of the best ones. Heck, it's a favorite of Ryou Hirohashi's, the voice actress of Alice. According to an interview with her, it took Ryou at least 3 tries to nail down the final scene because of how much she was crying. Personally my favorite is OVA Arietta, if only because of how much it connects to the third season, if you know what I mean.

[@TheYuyuyu246]

Great review, got to watch this show now...

[@Chivalrylegions]

I heard about this show but wasn't sure if it would just be another sexualized show since the main characters are young and female. But I'm glad you made this because now I am keen to watch it knowing that it's not sexualized!

[@mozaniikuun87]

i think this review does justice for Aria, good job!

[@Xplosive59]

Ah, shit. I was in the midst of writing a review for Aria but this review is pretty much perfect. You have a new subscriber at least.

[@KrisLalinde]

Dude pleease keep revieweing good animes! Your channel is like the place I visit everytime to check on a new good anime for me to watch! You are awesome

[@pyroromancer]

If humanity reaches a point where it has terraformed mars, Aria is exactly how life will be for the typical human, humble life goals that makes life fulfilling and simple. Human dominion will be peaceful and and time isn't the most scarce resource that it currently is with our generation.

[@leafbladie]

4:00 that's kind of a cheap shot. Fanservice doesn't make a character an object, they can still be interesting and real. Rei, Asuka, Sinon and Chi are just a few examples I can think of right off the bat. Now, if they are portrayed shittily, then I agree completely with you, fanservice just makes it worse, like with every single other SAO female character, harem shows and ecchis.

[@ToastbackWhale]

I'm working through the manga in Japanese right now, can't wait to watch the adaptation :)

[@user-bu3xt6mj4s]

I had finished Season 1, can't wait for Natural

[@trycon40]

i an so excited that aria is finely getting a DUB (through kickstarter)

[@Teoden29]

this show is one of the underrated isnt it? because i never ever heard of aria :/

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

Channibolo Yeah, not many people have watched it despite it being one of the most enjoyable shows out there!

[@howdareyousaysomethigthiso8270]

It's popular among elitists, especially on MAL.

[@Robin6128]

JoeYabuki weeb

[@howdareyousaysomethigthiso8270]

Robin6128 aye

[@hudrowportnof4058]

Channibolo it really saddens me how people don't seem to even know about the series, like at all. If more people watch this then the anime community might be a little bit more peaceful then the horrific mess of insults it is now.

[@transformers121000]

You know the animation is good when dat water be look'n FABULOUS!!!!

[@AstaIsAMonster]

Hey did U know this is getting a DUB it reached its goal on kickstarter and I am going to check this series out once the blu-ray releases with the dub and from what I seen from the trailer it looks like a chill show and the backgrounds look really pretty

[@JBrimBloodG]

there's no way humans would build an old school Venician city on mars after spending so much time, money, and energy terraforming it. If we ever terraform mars, expect grids. everything will be grids as far as the eye can see.

[@rakkaofglie5769]

There will be new episodes.

[@PhaddyOnka]

I will look into this series. Thanks for sharing.

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

***** No problem! hope you enjoy :)

[@TheSlyDragon93]

This is definitely on my plan to watch list, I kind of miss your little animation with your title spinning around like a mad man. Whoever disliked this, must have expected some hardcore ecchi fanservice. Not all female characters in anime are sexualised despite it being the vast majority.

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

Sly Dragon Yup, this is one of the rare shows that isn't an ecchi, despite looking like one.

[@gatheringleaves]

So, basically Neo-Venezia and the Aria anime is the complete opposite of Roanapur and Black Lagoon, am I right?

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

Infinite Sky yes lol, the polar opposites

[@howdareyousaysomethigthiso8270]

Aria =

[@matchablossm4416]

Where can I watch this online?....:/

[@brandonontama2415]

yup am watching it

[@LouTalksAnimeNow]

I have yet to watch this show. Need to fix that.

[@CalamackLP]

My only hesitation on this show is that the pacing seems very slow and like not much is going on (just from the scenes in your review). Am I right in this?

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

CalamackLP Well it's episodic, so pacing isn't really relevant. There's a new story each episode.

[@CalamackLP]

well, what I mean is every clip you showed seemed to be very uneventful, I was just wondering if the show was like this as well. (I think) that pacing can exist within a single episode?

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

CalamackLP The stories aren't super action packed, but they're not uneventful. They're normally adventures round the city.

[@CalamackLP]

I'm not worried about lack of action, thanks for the response and keep up the great work I love your videos :)

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

CalamackLP Thanks buddy :)

[@BarbaraKurz]

You sold me on "doesn't sexualize the female characters"

[@nakiaray2694]

My name is Arria. But I got two R's in my name.

[@PinkyIvan12]

Sooo a not-as-good Haibane Renmei?

[@jameshay7247]

Similar, but simpler. More child-like. Better or worse would simply be personal taste. Both quality productions.

[@Robersora]

Is it better than Mushi-shi?

[@MrJoezapyofrulers]

according to his anime score spreadsheet, mushi-shi was better by a bit. they were both in his top ten though.

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

Robersora That's a really hard one. They're both very similar. I would say Mushishi has better stories/adventures, and Aria has better characters and world building. But they're both brilliant!

[@leafbladie]

AnimeEveryday - Anime Reviews what do you think of Kino's Journey, as I've heard Mushishi is similar to it.

[@AnimeEverydayYT]

leafbladie It was good, and had some interesting ideas. But it lacked the impact Mushishi had. It's worth watching though.

[@leafbladie]

Okay, my favorite of it was probably episode 9 or 13. Though, I feel I didn't understand episode 9 enough.

[@catchyotaku543]

Well I guess I am number 3000.
