3 Post-Apocalyptic Anime Better Than Gibiate
Summer 2020’s Gibiate is a fetid pile of month-old fish skeletons and rotten eggs, as anyone who sacrificed even a moment of their life watching it already knows painfully well. It’s the lowest ranked full length anime series on MyAnimeList.net with a whopping 3.94 out of 10 at time of writing, which is especially heinous because the minds behind this project consisted of such luminaries as Yuzo Koshiro (composer for the Streets of Rage series, among others), the Yoshida Brothers (world-renowned shamisen players), and even Yoshitaka Amano (character designer/illustrator for the Final Fantasy series). Unfortunately, the creator/producer Ryo Aoki picked two studios with practically no experience and apparently mishandled the whole operation, so what Crunchyroll and Gibiate’s own official YouTube channel hyped up as a masterpiece turned out to be a poorly acted slideshow with Unity asset store level CGI and only a smattering of surprisingly good music to wash it down.
