An Anime Blog: Mirai Nikki (Future Diary)

Dear Blog,

I just finished watching an anime entitled Mirai Nikki (Future Diary in English)

Yeah... Let me record some of my memories on this one..

Mirai Nikki (Future Diary), as the name suggest, it is about predicting the future, diaries, time traveling etc. But, there's more to it, of course it's an anime. It's about predicting the future/battle for your life plot..

Here is a little synopsis:

There's this guy named Yuki and he's a damn loner. Then he was given a strange diary in a phone that can predict the future. There's more to it because he was involved in a battle royale with another 11 diary holders. It means that, the 12 diary holders must kill each other and the last one standing will be the God of Space and Time.. (Easy to figure out?) The reward is a WOW but the way to achieve it so bloody.. Then there's this girl named Yuno who is an another diary user. But the funny thing about it is that she is a stalker of Yuki and not just only a "stalker", she is madly in love with Yuki.. So the main characters are Yuki and Yuno and they must defy all the odds in order to survive..

The 12 Diary holders

This anime has a dark nature in it because it contains brutal scenes, dark nature of characters, betrayals, blood.. etc. Overall, it's not a children of anime. It has the same nature with Deadman Wonderland (try that too)

For me here are some of the main positive points that I found in this anime:
1) A good story... I know that some people will find it difficult to watch an anime that involves killings, brutal scenes and unlikeable virtues but it's the main thing that makes this anime intersting.. You will be curious about the nature of other characters.. You will be curious about their back stories.. Your fear of blood will fade away and you will focus more on the story.. (By the way, the version I watched is a clean version. So, there are censorship)
2) Good Plot Twist... There are parts in the anime wherein you will say that "I didn't expect this S@@t!". For me, it makes the story more interesting to watch.. It's like a spice or seasoning in the food.. There this part wherein Yuki's character changed from Good to Bad.. Just watch it, in order to grasp me..
3) Yuno's character.. Yuno is a character with an unbalance personality... She's a stalker who is madly in love with Yuki and she will do anything and everything for the guy.. But, on the other side, when she saw Yuki interacted with other girls, she has a full resolve to kill that girl... It's more of a yandere attitude (if my term is correct)... She is a killing maniac.. I mean when you saw her actions, it's definitely crazy..

You can see the unbalance in the character in the left

4) Good concept of each diaries... Wow, when I watched this anime the concept about the diaries are amazing.. It's like its not bad what you use this future diary-based powers are not bad.. They're good.. It's more of a Thinking Man's superpowers...

Sorry if it's long... Just sharing my thoughts..
