Grisaia no Rakuen and Grisaia no Meikyuu Review



WARNING NOT REALLY SPOILER FREE SO PROCEED IF YOU DO NOT CARE BOUT SPOILERS


If you have been or have seen the first Grisiaia series you know its about a guy name Yuuji Kazaki who helps 5 high school girl in his school with their problems be it family or something tramatic that happen to them in their childhood think key but add a bit more sexuality and violence when it comes to Grisaia series.

In Grisaia No Meikyuu we get the general foundation to Yuuji Kazaki background. from his abuse from his father to his insectious relationship with his sister Kazami Kazaki. From him being found   being used and abused by Health Olso to Eventually being saved by Asako in order to know what is going on in Rakuen you need to watch Meikuu but Meikyuu is so depressing it took me 3 days to even try to finished a one episode ova.

Rakuen is a bit better but still a bit on the taboo-ish side for in Meikyuu we get the foundation on how fucked up Yuuji chidhood was Rakuen dives deep into it expanding (for the first 4 episodes ) with him and his relationship with Asako his master who ends up finding him at the end of Meikyuu and taking him in as her own and then fucking him on his 13-14 birthday. His relationship with JB after Asako death him being in the military and his relationship with the people in there.
We then trusted into the present where Yuuji is telling his story to JB mostly for record sake  after leaving the office he gets a mysterious phone call to do a last hit only to find out it was to take out Olso. The later half of Rakuen is "operation save Yuuji" for the school is being closed and after that call yuuji went missing and a video was leak of a white haired Yuuji entering a building shooting people. Yuuji eventually gets saved,kills Olso and all is well in the end.

This is one fucked up show. From Meikyuu into Rakuen you will be shouting "Can this get any worst!!!" and Grisaia will say to you "If you think that bad check this out" while smiling in your face and stabbing you in the heart! It does have its light moments in all of the drama fulled story and it does have a happy ending so you dont have to worry about it being one big ball of sadness and depression.

Plot-10
It will keep you entertain espically if you were a f an of the main Grisaia series and wanted to see the back story of Yuuji will want to check both Meikyuu and Rakuen out

Characters-9
Most of the characters in both series will keep you engaged with each episode. In Rakuen more new characters are introduce when Yuuji enters the Army but they end up serving a purpose near the end the end

Overall-10
Even if you aren't a huge fan of the main Grisaia series or Just want to watch a new drama anime before Key air theirs this is one to check out. It answers question you have from the main series. It has more drama, More sexual content than the first and it has a happy ending






                                              

                                                      His time with Asako



                                         The girls eventually saving Yuuji and Yuuji sister



                                           Clone Battle and Asako before Yuuji leave a ship bloody and near death

                                                              Semi nude Kazami
                                                
                                                      Yeah that Claw was a fake.

This show was very interesting from beginning to end and i really enjoyed it. Rakuen is only 10 episode long and Meikyuu is only one episode long so if you have nothing to do all day why not take a ride on this feelz train and check both out. You won't be disappointed.
