I'm sorry, but her voice was annoying and hearing that infamous "Yukki!" every god damn minute was painful. Voice acting-wise, everyone does a solid, consistent job, except for Yuno's seiyuu. The OPs and EDs are also very nice, with the first OP being particularly awesome. Most of the tracks are somewhat memorable and fit their scenes well. Some characters look OK, while others are so ridiculous it makes the anime seem/feel less serious than it should be, which is NOT a good thing for a thriller/mystery. As for character designs, it's pretty hit-and-miss. The art and animation in Mirai Nikki are, for the most part, rather good, Let's begin with the positive aspects of this show. Unfortunately, after an excellent first episode, this series began to get worse and worse by the end of it all, it had become nothing but a huge disappointment. So naturally, when I heard about Mirai Nikki's premise, I was greatly looking forward to it. Survival games have always been one of my favorite kinds of stories. I'll mark them but if you haven't watched this yet, proceed with caution. Notice: this review will contain a few spoilers. With no other options, Yukiteru and Yuno must use their cellphones-now called "Future Diaries"-to survive this unforgiving battle royale. After spending the day benefiting from this new asset, Yukiteru learns that his classmate Yuno Gasai possesses a similar diary.Īs the two team up to defeat an odd pursuer and head back to their respective homes, Deus Ex Machina explains that they-alongside 10 other contestants-have been drawn into a survival game whose victor will become the deity's successor.

While initially dismissing it as a coincidence, he slowly realizes that the incidents written in his phone actually take place in the near future. One day, Yukiteru wakes up and discovers that certain events of his day are preemptively displayed on his cellphone. Despite having no friends at school, Yukiteru is frequently seen talking to his supposedly imaginary friends Deus Ex Machina, the god of time and space and Deus' servant, Mur Mur. Yukiteru Amano is a shy middle schooler who regularly keeps track of what he does in his daily life by writing down all of his activities on his phone-a digital diary.
