MASTERPIECE .
I couldn't have hoped for anything better. I started with no expectations, as it was an anime I'd been putting off for ages because it had 75 episodes, and I simply regret it. This anime is perfect in every way.
Every episode, every moment, every memory, everything, absolutely everything has a meaning. As expected from Obata, Takeshi, the mastermind behind this work and Death Note. Genius is not enough for him.
Just watch it. My enthusiasm is no coincidence. I rarely get like this, even though I've watched a lot of anime.
The openings are good, the soundtrack, the comedy... there are so many elements to mention that you'd be surprised.
Some moments seem predictable, but they're not. It's simply surprising at many points. And finally, I leave you with a quote from Kawa…

Bakuman Season 3 was good.
I have a few problems with it though. First off, half the anime everyone was just saying "Arigatou Guzaimasu". It was... weird.
Second it was scary how seriously they took work. I noticed they never enjoyed personal time, and Takagi never really spent time with his wife. He was always working on Manga. When are they going to enjoy life?
Third this anime was a little similar to season 2, in that they spent the entire show working on another manga. It was nice seeing them progressing differently than the other season but still.
This is a longer anime at 75 episodes total.
I still personally enjoyed Season 1 the most. Season 1 was the season where they were basically like "Screw the typical life lets go do something different" And that one message made me like i…

--------------------------------------
Well, well, well, what do we have here? It's the third season of Bakuman, the anime about making manga. And let me tell you, it's like watching paint dry, but with more angst.
Now don't get me wrong, I love a good underdog story. But there's something about watching a bunch of teenagers drawing pictures that just doesn't quite do it for me. The characters are all a little too earnest for my taste - where's the sarcasm and the snark?
But I will say this - the animation is top-notch. It's like they spent all their budget on making the characters' hair look absolutely fabulous. And hey, if you're into watching people drawing and sweating over deadlines, then this is the anime for you.
But at the end of the day,…

Bakuman, the manga series written by Tsugumi Ohba and draw by Takeshi Obata, the same creator of Death Note, has the metalanguage as the central idea, in other words, the mangá talking about mangá, the cinema talking about cinema, the language talking about language. The main discussion that can been about this (and the positivest too) is it's not resume only in a autoavaliation like art work, with discussions about composition and narrative like citations in mangá, but a autoavaliation like media product in a big mass cultural industry (japonese editorial market, in this case), that work in a hierarquic and hard system positions and excessive quality control in all work maded. The metalanguage in Bakuman, knowing the anime serie has mangá like main theme and central approach, is caracteri…

This review will pertain to the entire series.
Story: 16/20. This story should be so obvious. Why have I never seen this be done in anime? It is easily digestible and at points addicting to watch even if I can't bear scenes. The only issue I ever had with this is that it never evolves and it seemingly drags in areas because of it. Other than that this story is a gem that had me addicted. Season 3 although was a weak point for me. Ninamine is a terrible villain that seems like they tried to pull off like a death note-esque rivalry except half-assed and somehow worse than what death note was. And the romance part of the story is another thing i dislike but i will give that its own portion.
Art: 7/10. Good but dated. Not much more to say.
Sound: 6/10. It's melancholic at times and over-d…

*This review Covers the Third Season of Bakuman and Spoilers are included
The Final Season of Bakuman finishes the Story with finally fulfilling the Dreams of Mashiro Moritaka and Takagi Akito. Though in my opinion I found Season 2 much appealing but that doesn’t mean this season was bad at all.
Story: 7.5/10
The Story in this Season wasn’t bad but not much appealing. The first half of the series came with story arcs that started off strongly but ended in a generic way. But the Second half was much better as the Rivalry between Ashirogi Muto (Mashiro and Takagi) and Niizuma Eiji was shown perfectly. And the Azuki Miho Arc at the end was good as well. So, the Story was kind of straight forward in Season 3 but good in its own way.
Art & Animation: 7/10
Nothing’s changed oh nothing’s change…

This anime is about the love story of Mashiro and Azuki in a unique way, even though they work apart in a very far place to each other, they still got in contact and will married after Mashiro gets an anime and Azuki was able to voice act in Mashiro's anime. Mashiro works together with Takagi, Takagi being the writer and Mashiro being the drawer. Mahiro has an uncle who died of working too hard, his uncle had teaches Mashiro so many things about being a Mangaka. Both Takagi and Mashiro work together in the title of Ashirogi Muto, Ashirogi Muto had a really long way and had a lot of rivals. Mashiro and Azuki often provoke and ccheer each other up even though it is from just an email.

This is a solid show by all means, however, the execution of the last couple of episodes was poorly done. You have 75 episodes of buildup and when all is said and done, it doesn't do the plot of the entire series justice. Mashiro takes forever to propose and when he does, the show's practically over. They made a joke at the end about not showing the ceremony. What a waste. They should have cut some of the pointless filler about Mashiro's crazy fan and his little ordeal by an episode or two instead and elaborated more at the ending.

The 2nd season is way better than the 1st, and the 3rd season matches up pretty well. All in all, the connectivity of the seasons improve my opinion of the first season. The story overall, with its relevance to the life of several well known mangakas, is excellent. Also, it's worth noting that the main characters are analogous to the authors of Bakuman, who also happen to be the authors of Death Note. So that's another great thing about the story, how the specialty of the main characters is in creating dark cult like stories not necessarily always in line with the flashy battle stories by shonen jump. I loved the story from start to finish, and the relationship between the two main characters has been orchestrated with perfection, perhaps because Obata and Ohba share a similar relationship…

This is not a review only of Bakuman 3 but of all seasons so far.
Starting with the first episode: a very good one, it makes you laugh and showcase the world and the art very well. The thing is from the first episode you know how the anime is going to end(ish). I'm not saying that this is a bad thing but this anime is slow paced, repetitive and even boring at some points so this plus having 90% of certainty of how things are going to end must cause most people to lose interest.
The art and how things are shown bring a very strong sense of reality to the anime also related to that it is awesome to see manga volumes that i have inside an anime. And the way they talk about real life animes with no censorship.
The characters are very good explored in the way they think; you can know even wh…

My most favorite shounen series, after One Piece.
I wish I discovered about this anime earlier, well, sometimes I want to blame the title because it's like suggesting this anime as a battle anime. Well, I was wrong.
The journey to be mangaka, Ashirogi Muto, is finally end. With the coolest and happy ending. The ending can be predicted from the beginning but oh well, without knowing their journey, it's not interesting, you know.
Mashiro,as usually, with his dere dere towards Azuki, while Azuki becomes bolder, which I think it's good for this pair as at first, they have almost the same personality (from my POV).
Shuujin/Akito, as he's finally becoming the husband of Kaya-chan, I really hope that the final chapter shows us about he, being a father. (sorry, I don't read this manga, and I'll a…

This is a *Spoiler* Free review. So you don't have pay me. Just kidding.
*Crying* Good Night everyone. I am self proclaimed Idiot and I am going to give another review form an idiot's point of view. This time it Bakuman the whole season, because I can't remember where Season 1 and 2 ended. Hahahahahaha!!!!! I watched all 75 episode back-to-back, but I went to sleep at night and probably missed class for 2 days. I probably got alot to make work, huh? Okay on to the review.
Story (10): At first when I saw Bakuman, I thought, "It romance and about being an mangaka, I'm going to give a try because it's a romance." I am glad I decided to watch this anime. I like how when they would show the manga to their editor, they would give a voice and show it. I really want to watched all the mangas the…

Bakuman was originally a manga which got turned into an anime which is about the main characters trying to get it big in the manga industry in order to get an anime to fulfill their dreams.
If you were to read what I just stated above, You wouldn't really feel any interest in wanting to watch it. I mean how can an anime with a combined episode count of over 70 be able to be that good? Well you're wrong. This anime manages to turn such a corny plot into something beautiful.
I write this review with the assumption that the reader has gone through the whole series, meaning all 3 seasons.
To be honest, I was quite skeptical to start watching it because it really seemed like it wouldn't really go far with what it seemed like it had to offer. But I'm glad I was proven wrong.
The series is a…

BAKUMAN IN GENERAL: a perfect anime does not need to be explained in so many words said that this masterpiece showing pure reality of the life of a mangaka , I recommend it for those who have time in the world of anime , and can appreciate art and reality in this anime , someone who is not totally immersed in the world of anime could not give full appreciation of this anime and see him leaving would end before finding that this anime is considered a work of art
Story is a 10.
The story unfolds interestingly, not bored intrigues you , bother you, you get frustrated , you happy , many feelings , makes you think about how important it is hard work, that is the most important
Art is 10.
Great art. Proper visual effects, animation very good according to the year of serialization, no detail…

I thought about my dreams while I was watching Bakuman series.
Actually when I watch first episode of Bakuman 1, it was a bit childish promise and dreams but till Bakuman 3's end I watched how they strive to make their dreams to real. It was very touchable.
So this anime will teach many things about life. If you look closely every character in anime, all of them have their own property. So its not about just mangaka's life.
I kinda like.. nope love this anime. Bakuman 3's ending was hilarious. From begining to end, I enjoyed so much.

Let's get things straight - this series is amazingly good. I want you to have that in mind as you read on since I would like to write about all 3 seasons and not just this one - I would like to sum up my experiences with the entire package.
This whole adventure started when two men decided to share their dream (albeit for a different reason) and follow it through no matter what obstacles they face with their unwavering resolve. What followed was one of the best plot-driven stories I had the pleasure of enjoying.
Story
I should start by pointing out that for me there are two things about the story that must succeed in order for the plot to be interesting. Number one - the story itself has to be interesting. Number two - the way it's presented must be interesting - this includes pacing.

Bakuman 3 is a great continuation of the series. I enjoyed watching it and I can definitely say that it will be worth your time as well. Here's the review.
Story is a 9.
As with the previous season, it hasn't lost it's edge on story telling and pacing. It's easy to follow and easy to understand. My only issues are some arcs are a bit uninteresting and unfulfilling, like the Nanamine arc.
Art is 10.
Great art as always. Proper visual effects, no awkward animations or anything etc. Pleasing to watch, I should say. Sound is 9.
Good soundtrack and proper voice acting. OP/ED were not really anything special though,
would prefer Bakuman. 2's OP.
Character is 10.
The character development was great and I really like how they interact witth each other. Eiji is definitely the standout as I…

Dreams are hard to follow and even harder to make them come true. Whether it's getting securing your ideal job, marrying someone you always admired, or becoming a superstar, dreams require many ingredients to make it come true. It requires hard work, determination, motivation, creativity, and even a little luck. Yet, when people follows these dreams, it can be surprising on how much they realize about their goal and about themselves. In Bakuman 3, the series follows two best friends who hopes to achieve their dreams and become professional manga artists.
Ahh, Bakuman once again returns as the third installation of this trilogy, known as Bakuman 3. It's amazing how this show can still keep it together after several years. The series is written and illustrated by Tsugami Ohba, who is known…

What a great anime ! I think it was the best season of all 3 , the quality of the art was a little better , the drama and the romance was more intense than the other 2 seasons , but what I really enjoyed in this one was the work of " Ashirogi Moto " and the great challenges between theme and Niizuma , it was both exciting and enjoyable to watch . I definitely think the serie of bakuman was one of best series I've watched so far , simply because of the unique story and the nice touch of comedy that was well inserted , and that supported the charm of this anime .

Bakuman 3 picks up at where the previous season ended. The quality didn't drop at all, it's as awesome as the 2nd Season and better than the 3rd. I've watched 5 episodes and given the circumstances of this anime (3rd Season) I'm sure that I can give it a worthy review.
Story (10)
The story is still great with the usual pacing style of the previous seasons. There's just something very addicting in the pacing of the story, it feels like no second is wasted at every episode. Each one brings something new to the story, good news and more hurdles at the end of the episode. The cliffhangers really get you excited to watch the next episode too. The plot twists are still the same as ever, they seem pretty petty and weak for an anime but they're realistic and you can really relate to them because…
