Persona 5: The Animation

I'm one of the people who actually had fun with the anime, but even I can recognize it has some flaws. For one, it's length. They are trying to squeeze over 100 hours of story intensive gameplay into a show a tenth of the size, however, they try to remain faithful to the story, which means leaving most everything in. This leads to some episodes, like the first, feeling kind of like a rushed mess. Something I know other people may complain about, and I admit to feeling some frustration with myself, is the fight scenes in the anime: unlike the intensive boss fights characteristic of the game, everything had to be over and done with in 15 minutes or less. And the regular encounters are even worse, ending in two minutes. Again, sometimes thus makes things seem kinda rushed. Overall, it was a good watch, but I would recommend playing the game over this.
