This review is going to be for both seasons since it's the same series but aired at different times. I think one was spring or summer 2015 and the second season was Winter 2016.
Gate: A soldier named Itami Yoji who only worked for his hobby which is collecting mostly manga and other otaku stuff. A gate appears out of nowhere and these people from another world came out of the gate and attacked Ginza in Japan. Soon the soldiers were called out to fight back. Once entering into the other world, they find out about many magically creatures and more. Since this is based around Itami more, he gets into finding more and more adventures while in this world.
I'm not going to spoil anymore than that.
When I watched the first episode of the first season, I thought it was interesting... Especially since Itami saying that he is just working to keep up with his hobby. So guys... if you don't have money but need some for your hobby... Go be a soldier. Sure it might be hard work at some point but at least you get money for your hobby.
The opening is fairly good in both seasons. I don't really pay much attention to them if they repeat. I only like certain openings and endings so I won't bother talking about them unless I like the song. In this case, I didn't really like the songs.
The story of the anime? Well, the whole idea of a gate appearing in the middle of Japan and having soldiers show exactly what we would do if something unknown comes into play. So much death. You really have to watch both seasons to get why the gate actually appear in the anime. It's interesting how they were able to figure out how to destroy a dragon. Then learn of a legend of how that world came into play.
The art is beautiful. I really love the design of the characters in this anime.
Overall, I give this anime a... 5 out of 5. I rarely find anime that are that awesome. The story shows the truth of the unknown and learning what is to be unexpected and much more.
Do I recommend this anime? Yes. Especially for those who are into soldiers and magical creatures.
This concludes my attempt in a review for an anime. I'm sure there will be more like this soon.
Also, keep in mind, tomorrow I will bring out a list of Halloween Creatures and the voting will start tomorrow on twitter. Get out your spookitaclar fingers and click that vote button tomorrow!
For now, I will watch some videos and just head on to bed.
That's all.
With love,
BDK
