What It Takes For An Anime Reviewer To Reach The Pinnacle

By Earlene McGee


One most common saying has to do with opinions. Growing up, everyone is advised to disregard opinions since everyone has them. However, when it comes to the work of an anime reviewer, there seems to be an exception to the rule. The words of review writers are considered the law in many instances. This article reviews what is it that makes them so valuable, and what it takes to write the best reviews for animes.

Start with a brief summary when writing a review. The writer should keep in mind the fact that the purpose of a review is to add some new information and not to summarize the whole plot. The summary section should take a maximum of 25 percent of an entire review. A conclusive summary only needs a description of a movie plot and main characters, and important aspects like the genre.

Reviews are supposed to leave the reader with enough suspense to be motivated to go buy or watch a movie in the cinemas. For this reason, a good review should avoid spoilers as much as possible. One must not be so preoccupied with the quest for readership that they include spoilers. The best that one should do is to include small hints and avoid big revelations about the storyline.

Include the opinions of audiences to make a movie review more persuasive. For those who watch the movie online, browse review forums for the opinions of other reviewers. In a cinema, gauge the reactions of audiences. Was the theatre crowded? What was the audience reaction after such movie ended?

Do not simply give an overall description of a movie without taking a stand. Many reviewers simply describe a film without saying whether the review liked the movie or not. Readers are often looking for guidance, and taking a stand offers guidance on whether or not to watch such movie. The best reviewers state their opinions on the film clearly.

A concrete verdict requires some assertions and conclusions. When making these, however, the writer must remember to back up their claims. Make conclusions after mentioning specific areas of an animated movie. The most important elements that can help in decision making are the plot, characterization, voice over, performance, and music.

Conclude the review with a rating at the end. The rating emphasizes the verdict the writer has taken in the review. If the writer is surprised by the rating given, they can always go back up to a review and see the reasons for the grading. Use a scale that can immediately be recognized as positive or negative.

Go for the simple scales like the one to ten or five star scales. The best review writers must provide just enough information to capture the attention of an audience and leave out enough to build suspense so they can watch such movie for themselves. Finding that delicate balance is what makes the most out of anime reviewing.
