Hey guys! Sorry for no update yesterday, I accidentally watched the second season of the anime I hoped to review! (the second season is the one that just came out this month) So I'm bringing you my review of the first season! Hope ya like it! :D I'll also be re-reviewing the anime Arakawa Under the Bridge! So stay tuned!
Title - Letter Bee
Episodes - 25
My Rating - 7 1/2
Genres - Adventure, Supernatural
Themes - Delivery service, Steampunk
Plot Summary - Apparently abandoned by his mother, orphan Lag Seeing is taken as a "letter" by "Letter Bee" Gauche Suede to a town where his aunt raises him. His affection and admiration for Gauche give Lag the ambition to become a Letter Bee himself, carrying mail through the dangerous wasteland between towns on his world. When he becomes a teenager, he makes the trip to the capital to take the examination to become a trainee Letter Bee. En route, he meets the strange, powerful girl-like creature Niche, who becomes his "dingo," a Letter Bee's travelling companion. Lag yearns to find his mother, and discover why she abandoned him, if she did.
My First Impression - I really loved the graphics in this anime! (although the quality of the video I was watching sucked =_=) It was really unique, which was also a plus. The first episode wasn't anything outstanding, but I can really see this series going there! Sometimes the action has to build up, but I wish there would've been something more in the first episode! What I didn't like about this anime were the... Gaichuu, I think? They're a type of monsters, but they didn't look like they fit on the animated background. Very out of place. (hard to describe) Other than that, I thought this series was very interesting, and I know it'll get somewhere and soon, it's just not very pronounced in the beginning!
