Overall, I would say that ‘Guilty Crown’ is very entertaining and even engaging but not in the kind of way you would expect it to be. The only reason why one would even bother sitting through the second half is to know how much mundane the ideas of the show can get. Some might say that the anime is influenced by many other popular franchises, but to put it simply, I would just say that it’s just extremely cliched. The second half turned out to be completely the opposite of the first half and yet again, my old belief about over-hyped anime came creeping in.

However, what started off as an anime with boundless potential soon turned into a melodramatic hyperdrive that goes ahead with an insanely rapid speed. Even the anime’s emphasis on character development during the first half is absolutely commendable. Surprisingly, ‘Guilty Crown’ is not like that and brings in some really fresh never-seen-before ideas to the table. Many anime shows even claim to be “originals” but turn out to be nothing but concepts of famous tales thrown around together for the sake of a unique story. It takes great courage to actually bring in something new to the anime world instead of going for the same old repetitive stories that solely rely on fan service for sales. And by “original”, I mean that it has not been adapted from a manga or a light novel, unlike most other anime. One great thing about ‘Guilty Crown’ is that even though its plot comes off as a little ridiculous at times, all of it is original.
