How good or how bad this anime will be will greatly depend on what you expect from it. For people expecting action and resolutions, there won't be much. Expect more of a "slice of life" genre from these episodes. For people who have little to zero knowledge of The King of Fighters games, stories, and characters, this will probably be the worst anime you've ever watched. There's no character development and no story progression, its run time is barely that of 2 actual 24 minute anime episodes as a large portion of it is the ending credits and the post credit descriptions of what's happening. The anime is meant to be a filler for the moments in between the games, so this anime itself doesn't stand very well alone.
With that said, for fans of The King of Fighters series, this WILL be a prett…

Before the review, I would like to say that I am not fluent in English, so I translated my text by Google Translator, sorry if there is a mistake.
Honestly, it could be much better the anime, I think the only people who would like it and yet more or less would be the people who have already played King of fighters, for those who do not know, KOF is an anime about the game of the same name, not much liked the episodes Because in addition to having about 6 minutes, apparently has a lot of history to be counted in a few episodes. Moreover, it seemed that they took random stories and played only for the fans of the game, never played the games, but I would really like to understand the story by the anime, unfortunately they did not make a way to all understand their plot. Anyway, I recommend…

The King of Fighters: Another Day
Based of The King of Fighters series, more specifically KOF: Maximum Impact series of games, which is something I indulged myself into only briefly.. I am a big fan of the main series of The King of Fighters; other than it's spin-off series which is KOF: Maximum Impact. This is one anime you will have to have some background knowledge in order to fully enjoy.
Story: 6/10
This particular anime takes place after the events which unfolded in the first KOF: Maximum Impact game. The King of Fighters: Another Day has four interlocking episodes, which range approx 10 minutes each.. The episodes revolve around central protagonists; brothers Alba & Soriee Meira, who are protecting the citizens of Southtown, after the demise of Duke and his gang..
I admit I was t…

I'll start by saying that I'm not a hardcore KoF fan. I've played some of the games and I liked them fine, but I never got into the franchise as a whole. So if there's a problem with characters being out of character or anything like that I didn't notice.
The story follows a simple formula. One or multiple KoF character(s) encounter more KoF characters, they fight and a reference to a fire is thrown in somewhere. I'm sure this seems like it should be good enough for a very short ONA, but there's another problem. The fight scenes are boring. They move really stiffly like they're practicing choreography for a community theatre production. You'd see more action playing KoF or watching a friend play it. Most of the fights don't even get resolved, instead something interferes to stop the figh…

I honestly do not know why I am writing a review on King of Fighters because watching it was a very unusual experience. For starters, I felt that the anime was rushed because it was trying to accommodate a full story within a runtime of less than 40 minutes (~8 minutes X 4 episodes). As a result, I found myself scratching my head at the end and it just felt like a pointless and rather detached anime. Anyway, since I already started writing, here is my review:
Story: 3/10
The flaw is quite simple to understand. The story was too complex and it was being explained in a very limited amount of time. This gave an extremely "rushed" feeling to the anime overall and during the whole process, I felt no connection whatsoever to the events that were happening in the show. Unless I was supposed to w…
