Amnesia

Introduction

After fainting at work, a young lady awakens in the back room of the café she works at with no memory of her life or those around her. Two of her friends, whom she soon learns are named Shin and Toma, are called to help her get home safely. Once she is alone, she meets a spectral boy named Orion that only she can see and hear. He explains that she lost her memories because of his chance visit to her world, so he vows to help her remember who she is. However, regaining her departed memories without worrying those around her may be more difficult than she realizes. In addition to the gloomy Shin and the protective Toma, she must be wary of arousing the suspicions of the captivating Ikki, the quick-witted Kent, and a mysterious man who lurks in the distance. As her amnesia entangles her in the lives of each of these men, her fragmented memories return piece by piece, and the mysteries of her circumstances slowly come to light. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

I think this is my first review. I can't hold back the urge to write one because of how many bad reviews it has. First of all, if you don't know, this anime is based on an otome game with the name Amnesia: Memories. As someone who didn't play the game before watching, (I have already played the game until kent's route) I enjoyed this pretty well. It can be quite confusing when it comes to the plot if you don't know the story in the game though. So I recommend, to fully enjoy the anime, play the otome game first. I assure you that you will love it. The story goes like this: MC had an amnesia because of Orion (He will guide the MC that has an amnesia), and you will play different routes (shin, ikki, toma O_O, kent, ukyo). Basically, each route, it is a different universe. So maybe if you a…

This anime is an absolute mysterical reverse-harem anime. Story: 8/10 Honestly the story is somewhat good. Some people claimed that this story boring, however i found that this story have a factor which make me wanted to watch till the end. Art/Sound: 7/10 The art of the boys and their eyes are just stunning. The sound could have been more intense in some particular scene which can embellish the situation. Character: 7/10 The heroine is one of the most dulllest character ever! I love the boys in this anime as the anime differentiated their character. Enjoyment: 8/10 I enjoyed this anime in every single episode. The mystery aspect are the one that kept me to watch it till I know the answer Overall: 8

Amnesia is by far one of the worst anime I've ever watched. I don't know if I missed something or if I just don't understand reverse harem but this was one of the worst anime I've ever watched. Let's start with the story. Basically it's about a girl with no memories who die every fourth episode and restart from August 1 with a new boyfriend. I guess the story had potential but it didn't even get close to the greatness it could have achieved. I thought it was going to start up all tangled, which it did, then sort out into a massive mind blow. The only blow I got was an explosion of disappointment because it turned out to be one of the most pathetic love stories I have ever encountered. I would love to go in to detail but since you're not allowed to write spoilers in a review I can…

Amnesia was anime which I accidentally stumbled upon and at first glance it seemed like something which I would particularly enjoy, but little did I know it was a reverse harem, so for me this was a major disappointment. Story 4/10 Like many harems and reverse harems, Amnesia lacked a stable plot line and there were massive gaps which were never filled at the end of the anime. The story itself sounded intriguing, but as I continued through the episodes I found myself wondering how each one will match up to the description which I read. It did however match up to its main genre, a reverse harem which is one positive thing about this anime. Art 7/10 This was one of the main reasons I decided to finish this anime, the art was not brilliant, but I enjoyed the card theme which was displaye…

WARNING: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS but not really major ones but you have been warned Story: 7/10 I thought the story was well done for this kind of anime (although it could've been a lot better). It follows a girl who has lost her memories and time seems to go back to August 1st to a world that she has no memories of of course dating a different guy every time. I don't know if it's just me but I didn't find it confusing at all - it was actually quite predictable. The story itself was much more based on the actual storyline rather than the dating and romance side which is unusual for an otome game adaptation. After the first few episodes, I got a grasp of what's happening and that made it fairly easy to predict. Art: 6/10 The art was very good and along with the story, is the bes…

You. Yeah, you. Are you a lonely teenage girl who doesn't care about anything but sexy bishies? You are? That's good man, that's real good! If you aren't, please turn away and forget that this exists. After watching this you wish to have amnesia to forget it. NOTE: This anime is based on a dating simulation for girls. I must say, the opening got me already interested. Expect for the fact she was kissing with every guy, it looked really interesting. So did the beginning. The main character is seen trying to escape a building about to collapse. She is then seen working in a cafe, where she apparently has a black-out. And... that's all we get to know in the entire anime about her. I mean, it's about amnesia and all, but that's not a reason to give your characters no backstory or even a NAME.…

STORY: The story of Amnesia isn't exactly your typical romance, it is a tale of a girl trying to find her happiness with a different guy every few episodes. I thought the plot of Amnesia was pretty mediocre, admittedly I enjoyed the first few episodes but after continuing I found it pretty boring and VERY repetitive to say the least. There isn't much I can say about the story of Amnesia without me sounding like I'm completely hating on it; overall I believe the story was ok and will give it the credit of being fairly original. ART: The one thing I'd like to praise this anime for is the art, I thought all the character designs from the clothes to the facial features were detailed and beautiful. Amnesia had artwork better than alot of the more popular anime out there in all honesty. SOUND:…

The best aspect about Amnesia is probably the artwork, which is very beautiful, but apart for that the series is unfortunately only reserved for teenage girls wishing they had multiple guys in love with them. The protagonist is like many in soujo animes, only a lot more annoyingly quiet, weak and emotionless. The story does not seem to go anywhere as everyday she has forgotten about the last-so most of the time it feels a bit pointless.. There are the occasional good patches that are unexpected, and a 'baddie' which energizes things a bit. I only kept watching because of the art and being a bit of a secret reverse harem sucker as well as the fact it is a short seris, so you 'may as well.' If you want to watch something for a some hot guys, go ahead, other than that its probably best avoid…

Story I don't want to spoil anything about the anime (or the mystery) so I will just tell that this series follows a young lady and she wakes up and doesn't remember anything or anyone. I think the story was medíocre because it doesn't follow her memories about her real life (something like her parents, her childhood), it just focus on "who da hell is her boyfriend?", but I kinda liked the way she was in a lot of parallel universes, and I didn't like the end of the series, it wasn't like an anime ending, it was like an otome game ending. 5/10 Art The art was good, it is bright and have a lot of colours, it's like the art of the otome games, but I didn't dislike it at all. 6/10 Sound I didn't like the voice of the Heroine, it was so annoying. But I didn't disliked the soundtrack, I love t…

Hi this is my first review i decided to write this as this Anime seems to have very few good review's when i think i does deserve. Story 8/10 For the first few episodes of this Anime i was left very confused yet intigued. This kept me watching the new episode as soon as it was available and subbed. Although many will watch reverse harem's for the romance that is in them i think this story is good for it's mystery aspect instead. The thing that let the story down i found was that it wasn't long enough which didn't give it long enough to develop the mystery Art 10/10 The art in this anime was the first thing that made me want to watch it. The art in this anime is very pretty and detailed. It the effects of the shadows and sudden colour were very good for setting the mood. Sound 8/10 The s…

Amnesia is a story about a nameless female protagonist who travels to different worlds in order to recover her lost memories and also to find out more about the people around her and about herself. In response to what most reviewers who gave Amnesia low scores, I decided to watch it. I wanted to watch it for the reason that I could prove to those people that this deserves at least an average score. Sadly, I didn’t feel it myself, too. There was nothing. There was no spark. As I was on episode 3, things started to get messy. I wanted to drop it as soon as possible. Still, I wanted to finish it, hoping to find some good parts. But, to no avail, I just had my hopes crashing down. Story: (2/10) Story? As much as Amnesia has one, just forget about it. It was confusing. For me, all I witnes…

Story: 5/10 - Given that the anime made the viewer (that is me) wanting to keep watching until the mystery unraveled. This anime brings a lot of emphasis into the protagonist of the story, who is a lost girl with no memories of herself at all. In the anime, she produces a scarce personality where the guy characters could do ALMOST anything to her without a fight. She does not feel any specific emotions throughout the story and she lacks character. She would react with a character the same way with another because of this lack of personality. Although she has amnesia, this lost attitude is what made the other characters seem more important than the 'Heroine'. Art: 10/10 The art in this anime was amazing. The eyes of the characters were colourful and brought a lot of life into them. The m…

All I see is people complaining but I didn't think it was horrible. Honestly when I started it I was hoping for a bit more action. The characters themselves looked like they'd fit an action/ fantasy anime more than this. The art was pretty amazing if I do say so myself but the story line was lacking. The first episodes I found incredibly boring but it picked up in the end. The characters personalities didn't match their looks and yes this is pretty much a huge reverse harem for girls who like attractive boys in anime. I'm a bit disappointed really, I was expecting so much more out of this anime than I got and the sad thing is that the author could have done so much more with it. I gave it a 6 because I did enjoy it to some degree it just didn't meet my expectations.

What was I about to say??????????Oh, I'm here to make a review, man this amnesia thing is getting into me. So, at lot of people say that this anime is the worse at the start of 2013, well, they're half right, considering the fact if one focuses too much on the characters' flamboyant goth attires which would make one think that this anime was all art and not much content. But, if one drops this anime too early, then he or she doesn't know what he or she misses. Though, this anime was once an "Otome game" it wasn't a surprise that the director, Yoshimitsu Ohashi did it that way where we the audience would be taken for a ride as the main character Heroine travels from one alternate world to the next trying to find out what's really going on with her memories as well as the various arc that co…

Ok, so I finally just finished Amnesia. In my attempt to watch every episode I awaited for each episode of her confusion for me to be a little less confused. I tried to make sense of what was going on and where they were going to go with the story, and then I saw the end. I was actually disappointed that I had wasted my time watching it. Story: You can't really explain much of the story without ruining the horrible "mystery" I suppose. Heroine has amnesia, who knew right...in which every episode is her trying to figure out what's going on, and who she's with. Yes, it's a reverse harem. The story to me was awful. They could have put a lot more effort into creating more drama and mystery, but you were left more with a scratching your head in a bad way wondering what's going on rather than…

Amnesia: I Wish I Had It After This Actually, you know what, I'm pretty sure I'll be contracting amnesia when it comes to this series because it is one of the more forgettable pieces of work I've seen so far this year. It was incredibly underwhelming. It's sad to see Brains Base put out such a terrible piece of work, especially considering how well they've done with series' like Natsume Yuujinchou, Baccano, Spice+Wolf and Durarara. This series doesn't even come close to capturing the same magic as those series. So where did this series go astray? Honestly, it fails when it comes to its plot and its characters. Amnesia is about a girl who wakes up on August 1st only to find out that she has amnesia (go figure) and doesn't remember anything prior to the date she awakened. As soon as she w…

Here is a review coming from some of the first who actually watched all episodes. I've anxiously waited for the final episode... Amnesia is a series full of mystery and internal struggle on the canvas of alternative world traveling,all while adding a drop of romance to finish the cocktail. It begs its viewers to do some detective job in order to understand it, I know this because I had a hard time at first putting all the facts together or you can say I'm somewhat of a dummy. Here is a personal opinion that I assume nobody gives a damn about: Great story, very intriguing art concept for both background and characters. Epic OST's (some of the best I've heard). Also characters are totally different from one another except they have this air of coolness about them. General opinion A very dram…

First of all, if you have strong impressions for this show, then refrain from reading any further. It might save you some time as well as brain cells that may be lost when watching this show. Trust me, time is worth saving. Well, if I had my say, this series right here known as Amnesia is one anime that I have one HELL of a trouble following. It's not the part related to the story but rather the concept of the entire series. Even behind the scenes, Amnesia is what I see as a title that can easily be forgettable, just like an Amnesia. It's a series that just doesn't click right and was not enjoyable for me. As a matter of fact, this series is like a beauty without expression. It's a presentation without the delivery. It's a story without intelligence. And to be honest, I didn't like it one…

EDIT2016: Please take into consideration that this was written 3 years ago and the things I've written here are quite biased from an otome game fan side. It was meant to be taken as a defense to the reverse harem genre as a whole which was a lot less popular during the time I wrote this than it is now. I must mention that I changed a lot of opinions during the past three years, I've started to want to give more objective opinions, even if sometimes, it's, of course, unavoidable to not be biased; that doesn't mean that I'm discrediting this review. I am still convinced that Amnesia is NOT the worst reverse anime and most definitely NOT bad, but take mostly the first part with a grain of salt. I'm keeping this review up to note down my own personal growth. Have a nice day! ====== I'm one o…

Are you a lonely, boy-less teenage girl? Do you wish you could have many hot guys surrounded by you, astounded by you for no real reason? What about living in a world where you get to date and be submissive to no, not just one attractive male, but over FOUR of them in many different worlds? Does that sound like the dream life to you? Have no fear, "Amnesia" is just what you need to fulfill this! In case you don't get the vibe, this is pretty much a reverse harem used primarily for female wish-fulfillment. The story centers around our lead girl, erm, I guess we just call her Heroine? Because her boyfriends that love her oh so dearly never bother to call her by her name? Yeah. Heroine finds herself awakening with no memories, and it's up to her and a spirit called Orion to collect her memor…
