I really don't understand how can this masterpiece show has such bad reviews. Animes these days are not even that good and it has great reviews and this amazing show like trickster has mixed feelings reviews like what is this shit? I'm so fucking angry.
This show deserves a s2 srlys. The way it portrays the story and the character developments are crazy sick!! The plot is interesting the story is amazing even the characters? I fell in love with them. How can anyone hate this masterpiece anime?
I normally don't write reviews, but I had to on this one. If you think it's not enough, go watch it yourself! It may not be your cup of tea but it's worth watching than all the trash animes that are happening. (No offense!!) I just love this anime! ♡
Definitely would recommend!!

Story of Trickster revolves around a young boy named Kobayashi, who is immortal and wants to die. No matter how much he attempts, he can't do it, he has no will to live and no memories, but then he meets a boy named Hanasaki who makes it his mission to get him on right track. It's interesting concept and it's fun to watch, so I'd give this story a 7, I don't wanna spoil too much, so I'll leave the rest to you.
Art style of the anime is really awesome, I came to love it during the show, the character art design is incredible and I can only give it a 9.
Sound of the anime is fair, not bad, but also not really good, it's average at best, nothing amazing.
Now as for the great part, in my opinion, characters are really awesome, the character of Kobayashi is really interesting and the way he…

I started the show with great expectations, the synopsis had grabbed my attention and the first few episodes were pretty good. But everything went downhill after episode 12, in my opinion. I originally thought the show would be focused on Yoshio's past and why he has his powers/ability to not die. But no. It started out well, explaining the situation and pacing the story in a nice pace. But after that, the story was focused all on Akechi's side. I didn't expect it, and I disliked it.
The show hadn't made me grow to like any character yet, and then it gave me this whole conflict of Akechi and his brother along with a whole city all together for many episodes. I didn't shed a single tear or feel sad for the main character.
After that arc, the story began focusing on the leader of the dete…

First time reviewing anything on here but i have to do this show justice and its not getting it with the negative reviews. I have watched this show twice in a row and honestly its now one of my all time favourites.
The main story as well as the subplots are both enjoyable and quite emotional at points and makes all of the characters seem important in someway or another. The main characters are all well written and believable and the case of Kobayashi and Hanasake both have great character depth and development from the start.
My final comments are that this show ends well leaving and opening for a season 2 which i truly hope it gets and i would say this show is perfect for anyone who wants a great story with ups and downs. amazing characters and/or compelling mysteries

i don't know why people who doesn't like these genres even watched this...if you don't like these kinda anime series then do not watch this...you don't have to :D
i like these kinds of stories so i started watching this anime and i ended up enjoying this anime X)
story 8/10 : i liked the story...i love detectives working with weird stuff so i liked the story...main story is about a guy who can't die and he desperately wants to die...another cheerful guy finds him and make him wanna live again somehow :)
the only big problem was that the stories are not stable enough to be perfect...if they could have made it more stable and enjoyable it would have been more popular than this :D
art 9/10:art was beautiful to be honest...the reason of giving this 9 is because i saw a little more beautiful…

I won't bother myself from writing an entire essay on this anime, for others have already done so, but I'll share few brief opinions, one of which is the fact that the plot is a totally mediocre.
2. Roughly 85% of the characters are just straight bland and/or don't even bother, which brings down the enjoyment to 7, after all character interactions is one of the most important aspects, which is a complete fail in this anime.
3. Hanasaki's character just keeps on getting annoying as he starts to face problems and develops, which is the reverse purpose of character development which is to create a emotional connection. It is as if I'm watching a little kid play hero, who is playing too hard on their character that is becomes straight annoying and cringe. This brought down my enjoyment to 6.…

Trickster.. I found the very begining of the anime on social media. From just a minute video I was really interested in whole thing and couldnt wait to watch it.
If I would have to compare this anime to something.. I would say House MD. How can I compare these two?
Both are mostly focused on solving the cases. From time to time you get to know about characters.
Even though the anime is focused on so called Boys' Detective Club, you do not have to be interested in detectivistic anime.
I see it more as a mystery hidden behind all the characters. And I took a lot of interest in getting to know them.
The main character - Kobayashi - lost his memories. He dont know who he is, where is he from.. he just knows his name and that he cant control the power he holds. He also dont know the reason wh…

I see that there are many bad reviews about this anime, but really.. Please watch it till the end first.. Sure, there are some boring episodes in there, I didn't expect too much when watching the 1st episode. But I personally love the characters relationship development in this anime. Not because I'm a fujoshi that I love to see the boys interacting with each other, but more to their friendship, I guess? And that Kobayashi finally be able to...*spoiler*... Just watch it. Well, there are some unsolved mysteries left though I think. Like, what happens to the other characters after the last case.. They should've add some scenes about them in the end. Hope that they will make some additional episodes to explain those or Season 2 perhaps? I'll certainly watch them! Love Koba-chin! <3

I have never written a review before, but the injustice this show suffers made me want to actually write one.
I binge watched this show in less than two days and it was a roller coaster ride the entire way! I have seen hundreds of anime by this point and I honestly have no idea why so many people hated on this show.
I love any work having to do with the Boys' Detective Club or Edogawa Ranpo, and this series did an excellent joke of drawing the audience in, keeping you interested, and appreciating it right to the very end.
Was it perfect? No, but what is nowadays? Did it have a great, coherent story line, well developed characters, thrills, spills, and chills? Heck yeah!
I've been really disappointment with the reviews of many shows lately. Shows that had amazing reviews turned out to b…

I actually liked Trickster quite a bit but there are a lot of flaws to this show. Don't have high hopes when going into it, the show is good but that's as much credit as I'm willing to give it.
The Story: The show is about these boys who are in a detectives club pretty simple plot, except one of the boys is an immortal due to the strange powers he has. The immortal character is the saving grace for the show's story, as the cases they solve are occasionally boring with only a few I can think of that I really liked. There are some really good episodes that I personally loved but you're going to be sitting through some boring ones to get to them.
The Characters: One of the biggest flaws of the show is the characters. There is only one good character of the show and that's Kobayashi as he I…

The anime had so much potential to be good, yet, it missed it.
It had a good start with Kobayashi and his super powers etc... detective club sounds interesting hmm but as the story progresses it just became a mess. It was actually fun at the beginning, but after the Hanasaki thing it lost me. The ending was too a let-down. Art wise, faces were distorted in some frames lol
Also, Twenty and Akechi’s relationship is like ???????? Get a room? Sit down and talk it out? Thrills?? I definitely didn't get any.
Overall, the story just lacked, the character development was also lacking, I probably wouldn't recommend the show to anyone unless you're so bored and can't find anything else to watch.
(Unrelated: wow Gackt and Akira in the same anime? Gackt’s voice annoyed me so much in this, his vo…

Trickster is right!, as in this anime tricked you into watching this borefest.
Well LA will be quite honest here...from the eyesore of Soul Busters, to the utter lull of Bloodivores...Trickster: Edogawa Ranpo "Shounen Tanteidan" yori was LA WORST anime of Fall 2016 and had rightfully gained that title. So want to know why?...let's dive into it shall we?
Before getting to the flaws of Trickster: Edogawa Ranpo "Shounen Tanteidan" yori, let's at least see LA giving "praise"...though there's not gonna be much. For what the one-episode mysteries Trickster: Edogawa Ranpo "Shounen Tanteidan" yori brings out, some are interesting, no not intriguing or anything but the earliest mysteries were pretty weird or the resolution is at least funny enough. Next strength would be Nao Nakamura voiced by Az…

Well about the anime Trickster
Don't know what to tell you the anime at the start looked promising but after few episodes it has become boring and stupid nothing interesting happened,it's not worth watching....
The start was really good I thought gonna be a good anime since Kobayashi appear an immortal guy,and he wanted too die I was excited ,the 1st 7 or 8 episodes were ok really good to be honest,but after that it lost everything the story droped,nothing interesting,just boring conversation and some stupid mission and so it goes to the end....
The end is absolute crap...
If you want to waste your time go ahead :D
- Story Boring
-Anime Characters nothing special
-Kobayashi immortal dude that wants to die
-Rest bull sh*t
The story maybe 4/10
Art style 3/10
Sound 4/10
Characters 4/10
En…

Trickster was actually an alright show, overall. It could've been a lot better, but it wasn't a bad show.
The story is about a bunch boys in the Boys Detective club solving cases they take up. Hanasaki meets Kobayashi in the first episode, who has a power that prevents him from dying, and it goes on from there into cases being solved, character turmoil, and bunch of random stuff.
The art isn't really special, but it at least captures the tone of the vents properly.
Their nothing special about the sound. I do like the second opening theme and ending theme. The first ones weren't all that good.
The character department is kind of a mess. Kobayashi, Hanasaki, Akechi, and the rest didn't really evolve much during the first half of the show. They got some development in the second half, but…
