Japan Sinks: 2020 is not good. Doesn't mean I didn't like it.
__[MODERATE SPOILERS]__

If I could somehow give Japan Sinks: 2020 both a 2/10 and an 8/10, I would. So to that end, this will be two separate reviews. Sort of.
First that 2/10. I won't spend much time here, but the gist of it is that Japan Sinks is not goo…

I'm not going to pretend that I've had my fair share of any. People have been through far worse than I could ever comprehend. Yet, I get by. I know it's an arrogant thing to say, but it's the truth. Everyday I ignore all the…

"You're kidding!" -A main character mere seconds before succumbing to one of the stupidest anime deaths this year, Japan Sinks 2020
Hope, while often necessary, can be a ruinous thing to have in the midst of a disaster. Despite the catastrophically negative reception among friends and the similarly…

[Masaaki Yuasa](https://anilist.co/staff/100068/Masaaki-Yuasa) is, without a doubt, my favorite director in anime. His 2014 adaptation of _[Ping Pong the Animation](https://anilist.co/anime/20607/Ping-Pong-the…

One of my favorite videos found online is precisely one about [disaster prevention in Japan](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_XwelKjt5A&t=9s). I found it when reading about the Tokai earthquakes, which blew my mind when I fir…

Read full review on AniList →An original work, with it's own tone and story to tell. Something rare in the current year.
Japan sinks is something original, and that's always worth praise in my eyes. In the age of the generic, Science SARU put out something memorable, something that created discussion and debate, something that wont immediately sink into the recess of your mind as yet another seasonal anime nobody care…
Read full review on AniList →Intriguing, but a shitshow. Plotholes are actively dug, when they don't kill off a (main) character in a stupid way
Shortly after the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, an earthquake hits Japan! Shortly after, the whole country appears to sink. The anime follows the Mutou-family and other characters of the group in their story to survive this horrible event that is unlike anything else. What sounds like a very intriguing ho…
Read full review on AniList →A disaster, both thematically and literally. A hot mess all around. All I can say is: What the hell, Yuasa?!
Masaaki Yuasa is an anime director and animator who became pretty famous in recent years, though fans are divided on whether his works are actually good. I myself only just got introduced to his work. I didn't like _Devilman Crybaby_, I thought _Kaiba_ was really confusing, I absolutely LOVE _Ride Y…

First I'll say that I didn't think this was a masterpiece by any means, but it is good. The thing is, I wouldn't want to watch it again. It's something you watch once, survive through it, and never watch again. That doesn't mean it's bad! There is hope in the core of this anime's message, but in ord…

A waterlogged script that falls apart like it's titular archipelago.

Read full review on AniList →A promising start that precedes unmitigated disaster.
This was... something. Japan Sinks 2020 starts off with a bang, and moves at a steady clip. The first episode is some of the most evocative disaster film that I've ever seen. It really evokes the terror, confusion, and dread of a mass-panic situation. The use of chaos and social unrest, as well as h…

Japan Sinks 2020 is going to be very difficult to review, because of how wild it is. the main plot is basically like the title, Japan sinks, and a family of people and some other people try to survive through it. You think the plot is that simple? WELL think again ,because storywise, this show is ma…
