Why You Should Watch Angel Beats (Honest Review Of Angel Beats) 

Angel beats is GOAT and in my top 5. I’ve only watched it once 100% 10 years ago and for some reason tell myself that I will one day rewatch it completely when a significant event happens in my life; what that event is I don’t know. Still love it to pieces and I was ecstatic when 3 new songs were recently released within the past year under the characters personas. Didn’t know how much I missed Iwasawa voice until it hit and gave me major chills. GirlDeMo rules.

I remember that Angel Beats! was the first anime I ever watched. In fact me and my brother watched it together, making us both laugh and cry. To this day, Angel Beats! is still one of my favorite anime's 10 years later And yes, it is still impossible not to cry at the ending ;-;

I'm not gonna lie after I watched Angel Beat (stayed up till like 4 in the morning), and I had a whole emotional breakdown. My body was cold. I was in tears, I was just destroyed. Also, that ending is basically supposed to say they all reincarnated close to each other, and the song girl probably made the song and became an artist. kanaede and Yuzuru still held the feelings from the afterlife, and it gave him a dejavu feeling, causing him to reach out to her.

this show is genuinely something special. I've never felt a closer connection with a cast of characters, and never felt such emotional impact as i did in the final few episodes. I seriously don't cry easily, or almost ever, but episodes 10 and 13 made me completely break down. so many shows try, but almost none can actually strike the balance of comedy and seriousness that this show does - it switches on a dime between really fun and good times with funny characters and typical anime shenanigans, and the most heart-wrenching, soul-crushing emotional weight that's ever been written in media. I never really thought my favorite show would change, until I watched this one. if anyone's watching this video to see whether they should give this show a chance, please do, you won't regret it

One of the first anime that left me emotionally broken I had such fond memories of Angel Beats which made me wish I could forget it and rewatch it for the first time just to cry all over again

I watched 3 episodes and dropped this show originally, thought it was too goofy for me. But after this video, I went and watched the whole show. Man, episode 10 got me hard, I am not disabled, but can relate to the feeling of not able to do the things I want in life. And after playing soccer and baseball, being able to have a whatif marriage ending and finally got closure, how beautiful! The empty baseball helmet, the ending song with Yui in a wheelchair being pushed by Hinata, my tears just won't stop!!!

I started the anime two years ago thinking it was a normal action anime but I was so so wrong.

One of the goats and honestly I love the fact it's short kinda reminds me how life can be a sad joyous time even if it's extremely short

I just finished watching it. It was beautiful, and sad, and wonderful all at the same time, so glad you mentioned the Graduation from Assassination Classroom as I finished that one later last year and it got me emotional. Both of those fictitious graduations moved me more than my actual graduation, though that's not saying much. I love how well everything came to full circle in Angel Beats. This was truly a wonderful anime, and I love all that went into it.

When this came out, it was also my 1st anime and boy, what a mistake I made. Out of all the recommendation from Animelist, I some how picked this one first. The only anime that every time I listened to songs, still hit the feel like a truck after all those years.

I decided I’d watch this right after I watched it and I must say- This is the most relatable review ever, 😭

That moment when you realize that "Angel Beats" was in reference to the beating heart he donated to her in death that let her keep on living... 😢

first and kinda only anime i ever cried to. yea i tearerd up at anohana and your lie in april, but angel beats was only one who straight made me bawl. it was just that timing when i watched it was too god damn awful, my father just pased away and i thouth the comedy will help me cheer up a bit, only to get caught by the feels in the next episode

I watched this anime when was 8, now I'm going to watch it again lol

When I tried to watch this a few months earlier, my level of empathy was like Angel's, which means, almost non-existent if it meant the fulfillment of duty and purpose: -I saw Yuri as a mere warmonger, as she would risk the universe's integrity by facing God, even though it could have been the Devil who arranged for the unfairness that befell her life and family; -I did not judge Angel's attack on the Ootanashi. He was dead and he asked for proof of it. She delivered, because that's her job; -I'm not sure I can be so forgiving towards the hypnotist. He was neglected, I get it. But steal someone's identity like that just to get the love of someone who probably doesn't even deserve it... This one I'll admit I refrain from passing on active judgement. It feels too unfair for me to do it, given I do not know that kind of neglect; -And, I saw the humans' actions in resisting erasure as futile. That was the purgatory. They would either be reincarnated or ascend. That's how it works both in the East and West. All they had to do was to either follow rules or fulfill their final wish. Yuri I might even understand why she couldn't do neither, because even in my scenario, I imagine she would need not to be at peace if she hoped to one day face the Devil. My final veredict... This show was perfect. And I, am an idiot who could never deserve to have my sinful eyes gaze upon this wholesome beauty. Because, I spent too much time with my routine of overseeing. My level of human concern and care is very minimal at worst and lowly average at best. I do have one complaint though. It should have been longer. Seriously ? 12 episodes ? For a show this complex with such 3 dimensional characters ?

I cried like a little girl 2 times in this show, like one of the worst cries I've had

The ending made me cry just about the same about assassination classroom, and these are the only 2 I have cried to

Omg i was also begging for otonashi to disappear at the final end credit!!!! Too relatable, sub earnede. Goodnight

I love this anime so much but I want more

and cry the hell out of my eyes, I watch this anime when it first came out, and now when I'm finally becoming an adult, the story hits me more than it already was

the music of this anime is so iconic

i remember watching and waiting for angel (kanade) to appear in the ed, got what i wanted at the last ep and i was smiling. BACKWARDS

love the content man keep it up

I will forever remember this anime, I watched it back in 2020 during lockdown. It was one of the last animes I watched before I became more interested in netflix shows but this is one that stuck with me. Im still looking for a good time to rewatch it.

Angel Beats! has been my favorite anime since I first watched it. the only complaint I have is the same as yours; I wish they had had more time to explore everyone's backstories

agreed so sad so good also i was sick when i watched it so the tears were gushing out of my eyes

the "noonononoNONONONONOOO WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT!" is soooo damn accurate xD

Hearing the small part of the opening triggered suppressed memories of this anime even after 5 years of watching it and made me tear up a bit.

When I first watchee this anime, I didn't cry at all, I felt a sense of relief for the characters.

finally giving this a watch, always seen it around on the internet and streaming home pages so wanted to see what it had in store

This anime hits the emotions so hard!

Yui wishes, Kanade Thanks and The Graduation... It's flooding here

This was my first anime, and I cried for hours. Just remembering the last scene summoned the Nile River.

0:36 this hooked me will be back after finding out if its true

I think I have watched this anime all the way through like 3 times. I liked the fact that is was short so it didn't feel like such a time commitment/investment when initally started it.The stories were interesting and well written. I loved the characters and found most to be likable. I cried several times through out series and especially on that last episode. It was such a tearjerker. I am so happy that other people have found this show and appreciate it as well.😊

3:14 i feel like a vietnam veteran watching that

you watch this and it makes you go like, damn, and tears you up.

I just finished this show today and started 2 days ago but it was amazing one my top 5

This anime was so sad. Like the musician and her song. It was so beautiful and sad. But this name also has one of the funniest scenes. The propulsion engines. The slow-mo and music absolutely get me every time i watch that scene

Unjust life is my favorite track in this next to the opening. The episode with "daddy issues" is my favorite but also the ending and the baseball episode Ok i love all the episodes

ive wachted it already 1000000 times and i always cried

I recently started watching angel beats and finished it within two days, and honestly I thought the story would be a fantasy about otonashi being thrown into a war within the school in the afterlife, but my view completely changed somewhat between episode 7 and onwards, the characters sharing their favorite things they wish they did before they died and were taken to the afterlife, then started disappointing one after another and get reincarnated to live a new life, the cutscene were otonashi was left all alone in the school made me cry.

Just finished it, I'm here for more angel beats content Edit 3:00 my biggest complaint

Your reviews is top tear, 100% c: thanks for your works

0:16 we’ll see about that 🙏 Edit: Didn’t tear up but this one leaving a scar

I loved this anime so much that i didn't even know that there was a small cut scene at the end 😢 and i wished that the producer's produced the whole 23 episodes bc they thought that this anime wouldn't blow up but intead it did and now that the anime is done, the ending itself was a open ending so fans could imagine the ending but this anime is GOATED 😭😭😭

It was written by the same guy who wrote clannad right? If that's the case then I'm 100%. I love clannad so much. I wanna watch more anime written by that guy

I thought they were called the Barnacle Battlefront?🤔

That anime is sooo true I looked it up after watching in it. It was great at the start then started crying after could not stop at the very end

i know i wont cry but only feel a small bit empty inside like when i read the horizon which only had 20 chapters and very sad

I remember angel beats, it was my first anime that i have fully watced, and i remember i started crying when they *graduated*

LIAAAR! ..... Just kidding I've seen it 3 times, cried each time, it's really good *cries*

Instructions unclear I can no longer cry anymore

I will forever call it angel beast

“This will make you cry”*proceeds to watch it* hmm. Not bad thought It would be sadder ngl

Your reviews have been super helpful, just watched your review of Classroom of the Elite and was thoroughly entertained. Short, no fluff and points made felt valid. Can I assume everything you review is subbed unless otherwise specified?

To this day angel beats is one of the only animes that made me cry for more than 10 minutes, (i usually just have a few tears and thats it, but here it was crying, real crying) so it will always be in my top 5, even if i have only watched it 1 time, i plan to rewatch it sometime soon, maybe when i finish kaguya sama love is war

The epilogue honestly made up for the sad af ending.

The intro song My soul your beats is an S tier intro song

I loved this anime when I first watched it but I've never understood in the ending like why do they all start disappearing all of a sudden When I heard there was a epilog I went go go see one Netflix and they removed it

Never watched this anime before, I saw a clip of this anime 5-6 year ago of a dude speaking broken english and breakdancing and some guys shooting at a school girl with a sword and i thoug "lol this looks interesting" but never ended up watching it. Time passes and this video gets recommended to it, so then i watched the whole anime and let me tell you, i thought this was some Isekai BS with generic protagonist that i would just see to kill time, but damn this anime broke me... in the last episode i was literally holding my tears. This is the third time an anima had baited me into thinking is some generic action-packed isekai anime but ended up breaking my heart (first was Cyberpunk:Edgerunners then Cautious Hero: The hero is overpowered but overly cautious). This anime is a masterpiece and i regret not watching it before Edit: THERE IS AN EPILOGUE?!?!?!

I remember watching this when I was 12 that show scared me .

I finished it all yesterday but ngl, i didn't even get close to crying, like at some parts i would cover my mouth out of sympathy or shock, but i never rlly had tears in my eyes. It was still an amazing anime though, i rlly liked it.

The intro alone made me tear up

Underrated channel

Just got done watching this and in turn looked it up on RU-vid. It wasn’t at all bad I just don’t think the characters were fleshed out enough to make me care when the end came around (or 12 episodes just wasn’t enough). Too keep it spoiler free, when the end came around I just thought “oh really?” instead of “that’s so sad!”. Banger music though

I didn't warn a friend of mine and she deff sobbed on my couch.

The mic got censored do to some issues..

This was my first anime before bleach before dragon ball before naruto. Without Netflix and my buddy that got me hooked on this show I may never have even gotten into anime

I got hooked by episode 4 not 3

Angel Beats was the first anime that made me cry

I can't believe Angel Beats is still remembered🥲

I swear I have no heart throughout, watching angel beats. I didn't cry once I get it it was sad, but it just made me laugh.

I'm learning the opening

Personally its doesn't have a good rewatch ability. but I still cried after rewatching it.

The shows called “Angel Beats” the ending really defines that…

idk if im emotionless or not, i couldnt burst a single tear after watching the whole series as well as the OVAs, why i cant feel the sadness (or i might cannot understand). i did cry in clannad or violet evergarden but not this one tho

Ah yes angel beats my favourite isekai

i need a tutorial how to not be emotionally numb

I watched this and i laughed my ass off and then got the most brutal depreesion it has scared me

Um are we watching the same thing… cause I’m still waiting to cry. 6/10

Best, most accurate review... I’ve only watched 30 seconds 😂

I completed this anime just now, and now i am empty from inside....just tired of crying, I have been crying for the last couple of minutes... so i ran in anf and searched for this video in RU-vid.... Please tell me that everyone got a happy ending... please 😭😭 btw at the ending song ,i was also waiting for him to disappear...

Guess tge main chracter is the hardest question ever!! before I watched it I thought Angle was the main

One of the animes I watched before I really watched anime

I disagree that they were on dimensional. They were very unique and likeable characters that remain some of my favorite till this day.

Finished in one night cried

The music in Tokyo ghoul is the best if u hear for the music go wach that.

Bought this series like an hour ago for some 7 euro.....guess it wasn't a bad deal at all. 😁

Yes man just like what you said I watch it the song is awesome the first ep is funny and show how op tenshi is I'm ep 3 know

Amazing story

It was a decent cry on first watch I wouldn't call it crazy but the post credit scene just ended the story on a happy note

Wait what?? Ive always thought it was 24 episodes

fun fact I did not cry at the end I actually laughed because of how funny him falling to the ground was!

Any thoughts on the two bonus episodes/OVAs?

Was the a picture of electromagnet girlfriend

I'm from Scotland(hiiii) ,I'm gay and am a military historian,mainly I research the middle ages but I have gotten awards for my work on the WW 2 Japanese army. I watched this at the time it came out,I cried a bucket,that yell of pain at the end just........well,you need to hear it.

I dont wanna watch it cus the after damage gon be real deal..

sadly the author wont make Angel Beats 2nd Beats Visual Novel 😢😢😢
