While Haru Kurabayashi infiltrates the mafia branch that commercializes this drug, his partner Kai Etou starts working in a suspicious greenhouse that may harbor the FA production.

Despite seeming a bit like your average police/investigation anime, it's actually pretty interesting. The interactions between some of the characters are somewhat thought provoking and you end up questioning just how much trust they should put in each other. Since it's only a 2 episode OVA series, it lacks some character development but the characters do have an overall personality. The animation is smooth and it doesn't look weird at all. In my opinion, the art only looks a bit different from what we usually see in anime. There's nothing too unique about it. The opening song was nice and the ending song wasn't bad. The overall background sounds/OSTs weren't very memorable but I don't think it was too bad either. There was nothing that was annoying or felt out of place. The biggest pr…

I never had heard of Switch before until I randomly stumbled upon it. From what I saw the art looked fairly well done, and both episodes were only thirty minutes, so I was intrigued to see what it was about. And overall I wasn't too disappointed by the hour long OVA. Story (8/10): the plot of the show reminded me of a James Bond movie, which was the main reason I decided to keep watching. It's centered around a police narcotics division trying to bust a group selling the notorious drug Funny Angel, or FA. It's thrilling, has a sense of suspense and causes you to think a little. The overall world is quite immersive since the story moves so quickly, reminding me a lot like a movie. My only complaint is how many unanswered questions the show leaves, not only at the end, but throughout the w…

I expected much more with Switch and honestly, I was extremely disappointed. It's the cheesiest, most boring, overdramatic animes I have ever seen. Story Rating: 5 The story is just your basic police story. Just a bunch of cops trying to stop some kind of drug and weapon possession. Basically, they did something bad. You can have no clue on what these guys did to get in trouble with authorities and you'll follow it easily. Basically, the story is just kind of bland but probably the only thing that tried to hold this anime together. Art Rating: 4 Being an 'old' anime, I didn't expect much for the animation portion. The colors are extremely muted and the art style is pretty generic. Nothing stands out to make it look like anything new or spectacular. It's just like animation backwash. Th…

I Just finished watching this anime and felt an urge to share my piece of opinion on it. Here's the deal: I am in a love and hate relationship with the series. The story was intriguing enough to grab my attention and continue watching till the end however there are just too many unanswered questions left by the time it ends. For me, as for someone who has not read the manga beforehand there were just too many unanswered questions left there. So many that I am heading to read the manga right away. I understand this is not a proper review. Heck it's not a review at all. But I really wanted to share my thoughts. In the end I got hooked and yet was left really frustrated.

I started watching this for the sole reason that Sugita Tomokazu was in it. I had no expectations, and had never even heard of the title. My first impression was "oh, this is just going to be a cheap rip-off of Death Note where they're going to try to shove as much mediocre bs into 1 hour as possible." However, I found myself inexplicably wanting more after it had finished (for two reasons, mostly good) I haven't watched Death Note in a while, but as someone who truly loved the anime/manga and is revolted by the idea of a cheap imitation, I can reasonably say that this anime did not sound the alarms, despite the noticeable similarities in art and music. Story (8.5) Unfortunately for this anime, it's just too hard to pack a strong plot line into two episodes, however, this OVA did a surpr…
