Grand Blue stands out more as a modern slice of life that adheres to a young adult cultural society. Here, we meet a guy named Iori Kitahara who starts his new life as a college student on the Izu Peninsula. His place of residence happens to be a diving shop known as “Grand Blue” and thus where dail…
Read full review on AniList →I remember it well, three or so weeks into the Summer anime season and thinking that Grand Blue Dreaming would end up being my anime of the season, if not of the year. I'm kind of nostalgic about those days, there was so much hope for these new shows and everything was shiny and interesting. So what…

Read full review on AniList →Every season of anime always has that one show. You know the one. From the start it receives constant praise and love by the masses, unrelenting in their desire to make their short-lived adoration known to any that will hear. For weeks it leads the figurative hype-train that has every seasonal watch…
Read full review on AniList →Grand Blue is a 1 cour 12 episode slice-of-life comedy show based on college life and diving. We start off with our main protagonist Iori Kitahara moving to his uncle’s house for college. The series starts off with Iori walking into his uncle’s shop and seeing some very questionable men. He immediat…
Read full review on AniList →Grand Blue Dreaming is a dream anime, a treat to my eyes. I personally always would want to live a life similar to what the characters are living in this anime. But sadly, most of us end up dreaming until it's too late. Before I share my thoughts, I have to laud the work of Kenji Inoue, the original…
Read full review on AniList →Grand Blue takes the simple formula of providing a setting, an aspiring student trying to dip his feet in the adult world and completely turns it on its heel. __This is a diving anime for all intensive purposes.__ …well maybe 20 minutes total of the 12 episodes. And for all that is said and done, i…

Read full review on AniList →_This is a review for a contract through Anicord's Winter 2024 season._ I'm going to be honest, this show for me was incredibly difficult to get through. Unrelatable, fantastical and impossible. There's no way a mechanical engineering student could ever have this type of experience in college (at l…

En este caso, creo que no tiene mucho sentido dividir en una opinión con y sin spoiler, ya que es un anime cómico sin mucho peso argumental y lo máximo que se podría reventar a un espectador incauto…
