It's no mystery that this is a terrible show to watch. However, I do not intend to put blind hate in this review. It is clear after doing a bit of research, that this show is not intended for your average anime watcher.

Shironeko Project: Zero Chronicle, as the name implies, is a prequel to a bigger story. From that I assume that this story will require prior knowledge of the main story. As such no one who has not played the original game will be able to provide a fair review (in my opinion).

Overall: I, and many others, think that this show was a waste of time. There were moments where I really wanted to enjoy the story, but couldn't due the glaring flaws of this show. I would only recommend this to any fans of the original game. If you have not played the games, do not watch this show.

Story: Just from watching this alone, I highly do not recommend this show to anyone who doesn't know the original game. As it is, it provides little context, world-building, and character development as I believe this is a supplemented in the game.

Art: Flashy, colorful, a bit over the top. It is easy to call it cheap and cliche, but if you get a kick out of that you might like it.

Sound: The music and sound design fits very well and does bring atmosphere. Unfortunately, it does not reach its full potential as it is bogged down by the rest of the detrimental factors of the show.

Characters: Simply put, they are incredibly cliche. I believe that most character development is found within the original game and not here. But as it is in the show, the characters can only be described as boring.

Enjoyment: There were many moments where I found myself, wishing the show didn't waste time. It's unfortunate as I truly thought that this story had potential up until the last few episodes.

Side note: It seems that there is going to be a Nintendo Switch game for the series as a whole will be released in Japan.
