Recommendation: Not everyone is going to enjoy the humor in this show, but each episode is a 3 minute rush of pure Looney Tunes-esque insanity. I can't possibly explain to you what the fuck I just watched, but it's worth seeing for yourself.
Positives:
+ Rapid fire jokes and gags come at you relentlessly from the second you start an episode. There is no filler, plot or character development, it's all comedy all the time. The jokes might have gotten old if the episodes were longer than 3 minutes, but it's the perfect length for this type of series.
+ Funny meta-humor and inside jokes
+ Absurd sense of humor that emphatically discards any notion of realism. Much closer to the aforementioned Looney Tunes than to other anime in its presentation and type of jokes.
Negatives:
- The 3 minut…

Impulsive... Ridiculous... Crazy... Funny... and truly STRANGE.
Strange+ only has 12 episodes. So, don't expect much of a plot or character development.
What you should expect and be ready for is 12 episodes of crazy fun!!
1. Each and every character has their quirks. They're all unique and hilarious.
2. Every episode brings you a new story. They don't necessarily link together, but it really doesn't matter. It feels like you're going on a new adventure every episode.
If you prefer an actual, lengthy plot with build up and a definite climax, then this might not be for you.
3. Throughout all 12 episodes, I legit found myself laughing out loud lol
Which is why I gave enjoyment a 10/10.
4. There are some sexual jokes, so if you know you'll be uncomfortable with sexual references, then you h…

If you're someone who likes to blitz through anime series, is looking for somethingg different, light and funny to watch, you should definately give this a try.
I personally found this anime pretty good. Although it is different, eccentric and indeed strange...it actually works. The anime is basically about a group of four friends who work in a detective agency and undergo weird situations/cases. The characters are all very likeable. Each episode is sort of like a short comedic skit, however there are links between each episide so there is some order in the randomness.
The only thing I'd warn you about is that the description makes it sound a bit more serious than it actually is (beacause it really isn't), and the front cover gives off a different air to the series. So you shouldn't rea…

Like "Cuticle Tantei Inaba" before it, Strange+ is a "gag comedy" about a detective agency that, for the most part, really doesn't do much detective work.
Nothing really gets explained herein: Kou finding Takumi and what had happened before that. Miwa outside being a pair of boobs. How old Dorothy really is, and her connection to Ozu. And Rusty Nail not having her own show.
It's a gag comedy where the creator(s) behind it expect you to laugh and not much else.

Strange+ 9/10
Don't say the title didn't warn you lol
This anime truly is a blast for all comedy fans. I enjoy their parody's of other detective or action animes, but if it would be just that, I wouldn't love this show so much. Strange+ has a lot more to offer, yes it's a funny, silly gag anime, but at the same it's their amazing main characters (who always make everything worse), that make this show unique, ridiculous and hilarious! Most of the time, you have no idea what the hell is going on, things just happen, but it's fine, because the show delivers, it's full of surprises, references to really old animes and weird twists, introducing new characters like it's nothing, explosions, random weapons, magic, "traditional traps", villains who disguise themselves as maids, what ever, you nam…

"If you like the pool so much, then why don't I pour chlorine up your ass, you ass!" -Takumi
"My exit turned into an entrance!!!" -Ozu
So what even is Strange+?
Well, I'm glad you asked.
'Cause I haven't the slightest clue myself.
Seriously, Strange+ is, well, what it sounds like. Strange on a whole 'nother level. Supposedly it's supposed to be about detective work or something (well, according to MAL's description). Lemme say this, however - if Strange+ is about detective work, then my cat may as well be a walrus (...that was a dumb analogy. Whatever, you get the point.)
Story: 1/10 (Would be a zero, but I can't do that so meh.)
The thing I love about this series is that it's so stupidly incoherent to the point that the total lack of a story is completely irrelevant. This miniseries d…
