Qualidea Code

Introduction

On a quiet and peaceful day, the skies split open and extradimensional beings, designated as the Unknown, launch a swift and brutal attack against humanity. To protect the future of the country, all of Japan's children are cryogenically frozen until the end of the war to keep them out of harm's way. Several years pass, and humanity has established a foothold in a corner of Japan, which now serves as the frontline of the war. No longer facing humanity's extinction, the children are awakened from their slumber. It is then discovered that, while in cryogenesis, the children had developed Worlds, supernatural powers unique to each person. The six most powerful children are given command of the reclaimed cities, using their powers to defend the strongholds against the continuing invasion. Childhood friends Ichiya Suzaku and Canaria Utara lead Tokyo, siblings Kasumi and Asuha Chigusa manage Chiba, and Maihime Tenkawa and Hotaru Rindou oversee Kanagawa. Over time, the almost routine attacks from the Unknown and the clashing personalities of the city heads and subheads cultivate petty rivalries, leading to constant arguments between the three cities. With the Unknown suddenly increasing the pressure of their attacks, the three cities' leaders must learn how to work together or risk losing the last line of defense against humanity's extinction.

No spoilers ahead... Now then boys and girls, this one is one odd, odd doughnut, and calls for as odd of a review, so here we go! The first thing I'll say is that I do recommend watching this, despite giving it just a 6. I would actually rank it 7, as my enjoyment of it was about 7.5/10, but I honestly can't do that as a watcher nor as a critic/analyzer, as the art, sound, animation and drawing style isn't anything outstanding nor special, and the story is pretty... Weak. That's the word I would use, but not a word that does it justice. You see, let's break the story further into smaller elements : first logic and consistency. They suck here - the motivations of half the characters are really realistic and well defined and executed, and the other half is illogical and full of plot holes…

This is definitely an anime that will require you to finish to the end to actually enjoy it, the main character you can tell by the first episode is not very likable to many, I guess it like a person who I really wouldn't like to be with in real life like an actually tsundere who is abusive to some extent lol. Other than the main character all the other character were fine and seem like the generic magic anime whatever. The art style of this anime was amazing, like A-1 pictures always does. Honestly overall it was very enjoyable to me it was really just the fact about the main character being a bit stuck up, it gets kinda annoying kinda but overall it wasnt bad. If people never finish the whole anime it is hard to appreciate and for someone like me I've actually dropped it once and basi…

This anime is a waste of time. - If you payed attention to the synopsis and the anime, it spoils one of the main plot twist in the anime. -The main characters are a really annoying especially Suzaku and Aoi(more than Suzaku), I usually skip them. -One of the mc has some singing power which plays over the dialogues and battle which again is annoying, plus it's the same song so the song doesn't suit most of the battle because there are different developments going on. -Nothing is taken seriously here. Imagine you met your long lost father, instead of breaking out into tears or showing a shocking expression, they make the scene a comedic one. -Nothing makes sense. This is the worst factor of all, I'm not going to spoil it but once you watch the anime towards the end, you'll understand. -The r…

This review has been written with the 12 episodes seen by me. Story: 7 It has a good start, a good half and a good finish. The story catches anyone who at least dedicates about 4 episodes. Art: 6 In most cases, the animation is quite good. But it decays too much in certain animations, for example, of the face of the characters. Sound: 7 The music is very good, especially when you sing Canaria, that is perhaps the most outstanding in terms of sound. the rest as well as the opening and ending and others seem good but improved. Character: 6 Acceptable development of the characters, the typical, I have a flashback and story as it was, with whom I lived, etc. Well developed, after all, that is the goal. Enjoyment: 7 As I said before, Qualidea Code does not hook you if not after dedicating 4…

Well I'll make this simple and RIGHT (since the last review I did got removed LOL). Story: Hmmmm.... It was cliche and many things were left in the dark but it wasn't too bad. Only the way it was executed. Plot holes and details that weren't thoroughly explained or not explained at all but it was an amusing anime. Art: It was just right for its year, not that I know much, but after watching older anime I saw that the art is well... Except for a few weird... Times. Oh god. Sound: Well the music saved the anime if I may be bold. It was catchy and somehow gets you hyped and is executed at the right time. Though I don't think it really fit exactly (personal opinion, of course!) Character: Oh yes! Yes! This part is the second best since the characters showed development (explosively and slo…

Honestly this is my first review ever and the only reason is to say that THE ANIME WAS ACTUALLY PRETTY GOOD IMO. I don't know why people keep saying it is a bad anime with shit story if there even is one. Honestly I liked the ideas behind it and the story isn't that simple and shit. It is casual, your usual magic action stuff, fun stuff to watch unless you are expecting some godlike story to blow your mind and be your top anime for the rest of your life. Get your expectations and elitism down a bit... Many animes worse than this is getting higher scores tbh.

Post-apocalyptic worlds seem to be all the rage these days. In this take here, we find three schools apparently holding back a seemingly endless wave of alien invaders, who had previously already decimated the Tokyo bay area the past. These schools are all filled with unique specialists. Tokyo is filled with flying magicians that use staffs like witch brooms. Kanagawa are melee specialists and apparently utilize a giant aircraft carrier somehow. Finally, Chiba are ranged specialists, using everything from small arms to gigantic WW2-Germany inspired train-mounted mega turrets. With the combined efforts of these three combative schools be enough to hold back the alien invaders? Moreover, why does everyone have a chip stamped on the back of his or her neck? This was one of my stretch watches…

qualidea code is about 6 main protagonist that divided into 3 region(2 people each region). their world is attacked by likely alien called unknown and they fight against it. and that's the main plot of this anime. simple plot, predictable, but its not that bad. quite enjoyable and there're interesting character like chigusa sibling and tokyo pair too. so just give it a try dudes, dont hope some amazing story though. just hope you'll find an enjoyable anime to watch. well with this review i'll praise this anime. the story is not amazing but good, and still enjoyable. this anime deserve more than 6,7 rating. maybe people who give it small score because they hoping too much from 3 great writers, and from A-1 pictures. but end up disappoint because it's not that good. but if you compare it fo…

Children who have been evacuated to a cold sleep facility during the invasion by the "unknown" several decades ago wake up from their slumber and learn that their bodies developed some supernatural forces. In order to protect the country from the "unknown" emerging from the Tokyo bay gate, the boys and girls wage battles in the defense the cities of Tokyo, Kanagawa, and Chiba. Well introduction to the story sounds pretty standard. Children with super powers fighting monsters while adults are cheering them up from the safe spots. But as we learned in anime that is not a bad thing. Stories based on that cliche can be amazing and entertaining. And at the beginning QC does not look bad. It has world with not that many plot holes. We meet world with three cities or rather three schools that d…

First of all i haven't read any of the light novels that the series was based on and as such the first time that i seen the characters and the setting was in the anime itself. The main story revolves around children with special abilities that protect the world that was devastated by alien attacks from them. The setting is a near future version of Japan. As settings and stories go this is pretty genetic. So then lets get started Ichiya who I call Icchan is one of the main characters of the series. Icchan's personality at first is of arrogance and stubbornness which is borne out of his desire to protect the world and Cana. He tends to think highly of himself and does it way too much and at the same time looking down on others. This aspect of him I actually hate. However, despite th…

Qualidea Code is about a post-apocalyptic Japan that was attacked by creatures called Unknown. The majority of adults were killed off, but, in order to protect future generations, the government forced the world's children into deep sleep. When the children (now teenagers) awoke many years later, they had strange powers called "World" and most of civilization was gone. Using their powers, the children fight against the Unknown and help administrate the new military system that was created by the remaining adults. This concept sounds entertaining by itself, but it is also one of the problems with this show. There are so many anime where creatures attack, a large portion of the population or world are destroyed, and then the youth need to save the world. It isn't a bad concept, but it's ge…

At first the anime is hard to watch but it gets better towards the end, for the first half ill give it a score of 3 of 10, for the second half, ill give it a score of 7 of 10. The story itself is a failure, sorry but its one of them anime that is almost a chore to watch. The art is a little lacking, it looks older and not as clean as newer anime. The sound when they sing isn't bad, so ill rate that a little higher. Character development is average, nothing special there till the end. I enjoyed the ending, but not the beginning, so ill rate it 7 of 10. Would I recommend it to watch? Yes if your able to binge watch it from beginning.

Qualidea Code is pretty standard, but not unbearably standard. While the character designs may look generic even if it wasn't produced by A-1 picture and the clothing imply a school setting for a sake of simplicity in not giving them unique clothing... The anime isn't actually a school setting anime and instead focuses on six characters divide into three groups which run and defend their respective districts. The plot: After an attack by a species known as "unknowns" humanity is able to organize itself and create a stronghold which is under constant attack by these "unknowns". This time however they've gained a power known as "Their World" which allows them to combat these unknown. Thanks to these powers they actually make light work of their attackers. Or so they think. So those who h…

Do yourself a favor. Watch something else. This is without a doubt one of the worst pieces of Garbage that has ever come out in the anime world. I feel like I need to cleanse my eye balls with Kyoani or PA Works animation because Qualidea Code was far from "Quality" While the story was decent every thing else was a train wreck. The characters were sub-par but overall they were generic characters. The aniation was like watching a Visual Novel at some points, there would just be still screens with music and yelling in the background. Also if you don't like random Dubstep music crossed over MULTIPLE times with the same Pop song that gets played throughout this anime then again you want to watch something else. Please, I can't stress this enough. Watch something else...STEER CLEAR FROM THI…

I've stated this on other reviews and I'll say it again, "I don't give a shit about cliches/tropes and you can tell by some of ratings for other shows (please don't look just to have an excuse to write comments). To be honest, I wasn't the biggest fan of this show in the beginning; it was still a 7/10 for me because I was enjoying it, but it took a while to grow on me. If your opinion was similiar to mine at the start, finish it before making a final judgment. I don't remember what episode it was when the plot took a total 180 and became exciting; I think it was episode 7 or something. The plot twist is what made this so much better. A show that was good, but wasn't the best, became so much more. So many aspects of the story that you knew completely change. I want to say how the world it…

Qualidea Code, A-1 Pictures' new attempt at "cash grab" show for the summer 2016 season. This show had a certain hype behind it considering the studio behind it and their previous works, notably: Sword Art Online, Anohana, Your Lie In April and Silver Spoon among others. Those of you who follow certain studios and look at their previous works will recognize that A-1 is a hit or miss studio. Sure they gave birth to shows like Erased and Your Lie in April which are greatly loved, but they also gave us Subete ga F ni naru and Aldnoah Zero which aren't great. Sadly Qualidea Code falls upon the lower end the line as (in my opinion) it isn't good. That isn't to say it isn't enjoyable I liked watching this (sort of) and you should attempt to watch it and form your own opinions. Well onto the as…

My first review here in the MAL after more than 2 years, let's see what will come out, sorry for my bad english sometimes, its not my primary language. And sorry for not a lot of content, I did not see reason to talk much of this anime, it was just too average for me to talky much about it, even more in my first review. What to say about this anime? I certainly had hype for it, A-1 pictures maybe its not the best studio, but some of his works are excellent, atleast in animation, like SAO and shigatsu....but this had one of the worst I've ever seen, but this don't make this the worse anime that i had watched, i will explain why. Story: 6/10 I can not deny that the principle was so much cliche, but i can say that as some interesting plots, and author did some interesting decisions at first…

High School Students defending the world from aliens! Qualidea Code's premise is your typical high school students defending and saving the world with a slight twist to it. Unfortunately the twist in itself doesn't make the anime any better as LA has some very mixed feelings for Qualidea Code. Well let's start with the characters... Kasumi Chigusa voiced by Yuuma Uchida and Asuha Chigusa voiced by Chika Anzai have the entire annoying sibling relationship together for the most part, with Kasumi being the lone and lazy sniper with Asuha being the bombastic and "controlling" of the two and are decent characters overall. Hotaru Rindou voiced by Ayaka Fukuhara and Maihime Tenkawa voiced by Aoi Yuuki are also decent characters, with Hotaru's "infatuation" to Maihime and Maihime's overall genk…

Qualidea Code has given me a new perspective on cliche anime once.However,due to poor presentation in Qualidea Code,I don't have much enjoyment in this anime,therefore I tried to understand the plot and put my standard and expectation lower,lower and lower... When things come to an end,since my expectation is low enough,I don't have any feelings after watching Qualidea Code.It feels like Qualidea Code doesn't even exist... Story(3/10)(35%) For the story part,since this anime makes a relatively big change in the middle,so I decided to separate into parts. [First Impression] The ideas in Qualidea code aren't refreshing and new.The story is based on a bunch of human characters fighting against alien creatures "unknowns".Most popular anime or movie series,like world trigger or other sci-f…

Qualidea code is an alright cash gra-I mean show. Let's go int more detail. This show has all the elements of a cash grab. 1)They put no effort into the animation. -To explain what I mean, it seems like they tried to have as little movement as possible(two characters use gun, three of them barely move when they fight, and the 6th character just stands and moves their mouth). -The characters also look more like the drawings of a manga cover instead of actually being animated fully. -characters also look really weird sometimes like in episode 11 when a character looked terrible for a few seconds in the beginning. -They also fill the screen with special effects which don't look bad, it just shows hat they don't care that much to a point 2) The soundtrack is phenomenal -I noticed that in a…
