AniWorthRumble Garanndoll
Introduction
Japan, 2019, just before the dawn of a new era. Suddenly, a rift to another dimension appears in the sky, revealing an alternative world "Shinkoku Nippon," with the sky and the earth upside down. This parallel world keeps their former militarism, with its era being Eternal Showa. The military invades the real Japan with giant humanoid robots called "Garann" and their gas weapons "Genmu", rendering our modern weapons ineffective. "Shinkoku Nippon" instantly seizes the government and achieves de facto conquest of Japan. The new era, "Reiwa," has now arrived for Japan.

Saying true to yourself is never easy especially if you still confused to justify your feeling. I think this is the whole idea of 'Rumble Garanndoll'. Hosomichi have traumatic past that he don't really know how to solve it, especially in his current condition with huge debt and the changing world. We already know life must go on but it never easy to move on.
It has good idea for start an original story, but Garanndoll cannot fully used it to full potential. If they only focus on Hosomichi, Rin and Yamada it will become deeper story. Too many supporting cast in Garanndoll make the series feel shallow and generic. I cannot enjoy it as action and sci-fi series, it just feel like dumb argument about Japanese anime culture and their big enemies.
In conclusion this anime is nothing special, bu…

This show didn't seem to know what it wanted to do. From reading the synopsis I had a completely different idea about what the show was going to be. I figured there would be more direct conflict between the two different versions of Japan and I think the story overall would have been more interesting if it had been about the initial invasion rather than another boring and bad resistance plot. The protagonist suffers a bit from "get in the robot" syndrome while he struggles to find a personality, and many ideas presented are executed poorly or forgotten before they can go anywhere interesting.
Overall it wasn't painful to watch, but it wasn't exactly fun. 6/10

I don’t write very many reviews, as most of the time I feel like other people can convey my feelings about a work better, or my opinion on a show is similar enough to the masses that it’s an unnecessary effort. HOWEVER, that is not the case with Gyakuten Sekai no Denchi Shoujo, also known as Rumble Garanndoll. This show is honestly so much god damn fun, one of my favorites of 2021, and I just can’t understand how other people don’t see it (aggregate score reflects that). Also, this won’t be some long, drawn-out review to breakdown the "quality" of the story, sound-direction, and animation because if that's what you're looking for, then you're already approaching the show wrong.
THE STORY:
First things first, Garanndoll is not just some generic Mecha/Comedy as the tags make it appear, bu…

Over the many years of watching anime, I pretty much have a standard of knowing what to expect for shows, even more so for originals, where ideas can get so ridiculous and even thought-provoking at times if it chooses to do so. At least for Gyakuten Sekai no Denchi Shoujo a.k.a Rumble Garanndoll, I can respect the concept that came forth from this original expedition by famed studio Lerche director Masaomi Andou, but in all honestly, this was far from being original, was a chore to go through, and is pretty tame as a derivative of something that's already done the same, but superior in every way.
Gyakuten Sekai no Denchi Shoujo a.k.a Rumble Garanndoll is the story premise concept about a "what if" situation if in the modern day (before the crossing of years), Japan's entertainment epice…
