According to the government, the horrific state of the new world is the result of mushroom spores being spread by the likes of Bisco Akaboshi, labeled the "Man-Eating Mushroom." But Bisco would beg to differ. In reality, he is a "Mushroom Protector," determined to uncover the legendary "Sabikui" mushroom—said to be the ultimate cure for the rusting disease. Joining him on his quest are his giant crab Akutagawa and the kind doctor Milo Nekoyanagi, who is actively searching for a rust poisoning treatment for his sick sister. Despite the prejudice aimed toward him by the common folk, Bisco refuses to give up on his quest to purify the rotting world.

So it is clearly a min-max build xD A lot of annoying shounen tropes are cut off but the others that are present have a power level beyond 9000! For those who aren't keen on that please stick around and read the rest. This anime has the best-built world out of any anime in 2022 so far …. Machine gun hippos, giant shrooms, slug planes, giant rod wielding hot woman :3. Arrows that sprouts giant mushrooms, suited up mafia with a bunny mascot headgear. And what's worth it is, everything fits right in due to how much of a struggle life is due to the rust wind people adapt, they learn new tricks they change and am sure the modern comfy world would never allow a slug plane XD. But for the first project of a new anime studio (even tho they have some great people working there), this seems rather promising, I cant wait to see what else they have in store for us! The world of sabikui Bisco is really well done so much so that my trash taste in anime wants to even call it a fit for the isekai world. The Post-apocalyptic theme is mostly downplayed by many animes but here, you can tell every day is a struggle to survive, people literally rusting o death, eating what they can find, getting addicted to weird mushrooms, and children wielding weapons just to protect themselves. It's dark, depressing, and full of mystery and yet life finds a way to thrive and so do humans. The music in this anime is really amazing the person who chose and composed the music needs a raise, the music fits so well to the half-dead fallen world which rusts away literally and is magical and sometimes hallucinating levels of weird shit happening all around (the author was probably on drugs). I’ll get straight into the rating since I want to keep the viewing experience as unspoiled as possible. Plot (7/10) Well, it's kind of a generic shounen start, adventure begins to find something (this time it ain't one piece, it's the cure to rust wind). The weakest part of the plot is probably that one asspull that happened, but that will depend on tolerance for that kind of thing. but it certainly has a sense of familiarity when one thinks of other shounen shows. Characters (8/10) Milo and Bisco are like JOBROS level of bro story, MIlo may seem annoying at times but he does change for the better towards the middle and the end, Bisco is goddamn best boi something along the lines of a good tsundere guy who isn't flustered at being nice but is just not very used to people,Pawoo develops really well towards the end after everything is cleared up. Tsuda kenjiro and kurokawa are a perfect match (those who know do send FR). jabi and the kids also have a pretty good personality. Sound and VA(10/10) The Best I have seen out of any new release, Op is a straight banger, the rumbling is a great blessing to rock fans this will make them cream their pants.ED is JOBRO the ending 100% that is totally the vibe any Jojo fan will feel. Tsuda Kenjiro is totally the best VA one can pick for anti-hero or fucked up villain there is no contention in that regard. The VA of Pawoo was also a great and unique voice, it totally helps reflect her strength and confidence and the rest of the characters didn't stand out that much but are great nonetheless. Art and animation (9/10) The Art is so really good, (only akebi chan has a realistic chance of beating it, but it wouldn't be fair since the tone is different for both) although it loses some points in animation, the art is absolutely gorgeous and immediately makes it clear that this is a post-apocalyptic world. The dead tetsujin statue being repurposed into a living space, dark and wild plants that grow and evolve to fight the new environment they find themselves in, a dull but alive city that barely holds on to hope, it's perfect. A must watch if you loved the trailer, it's surely great to see a new idea being executed this well, it had way more potential IMO but I must say this is still one of the best this season, by all means, Do not let the mediocre score waver you and definitely give it 3 episodes to let it sink in. at the very least, do watch the trailer.

What started out as a unique and gritty looking story in the first few episodes, became an extremely convoluted one full of plot holes and errors that made it a drag to watch. The build up to the climax of this show was great, but the climax itself was one of the most disappointing things I have seen in a while, and that’s truly a shame. My grading criteria: Story: /25 Art: /10 Music: /10 Characters: /20 Enjoyment /15 Thematic Execution /20 STORY: 8.5/25 At the outset, this seemed like an interesting concept. In ... a dystopian society called Imihama that was ravaged by rust, we see Milo, our character, live his life by investigating this “rust disease” and treating patients at a clinic. We see the seemingly scheming governor of this society, Kurokawa, who seemed like a very intriguing villain. I was thoroughly intrigued at this point. After that, Bisco appears, with a bow and arrow in which the arrows make mushrooms grow on whatever they hit, which was an interesting concept. Following a reveal about the true nature of the rusting and its effect on humans, Bisco and Milo embark on a journey. The rest of the build up you can watch yourself, but the underlying problems are the lack of a general direction of the plot. *SPOILERS IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH The climax of the story is where it all fell apart. Kurokawa is the corrupt governor that has a hand in this entire rust issue, and Bisco and Milo confront him, but he proves tough to outsmart. My gripe with this entire sequence of events is that when there’s a clear opportunity to defeat him, Bisco spares him, and it led to more disasters down the road, including the demise of someone, which was another poorly executed “emotional” scene. Anything after that scene was just not good anymore, with the huge monster Tetsujin and all. It became generic and uninteresting. ART: 7.7/10 The overall art style is good, but it looks very grimy, if you know what I mean. MUSIC: 8.6/10 The soundtrack is pretty good, and both the opening and ending are one my favourites of the season. CHARACTERS: 5.5/20 Much like the story, the characters felt very interesting to start, but either didn’t play enough of a role (characters like Tirol, and anyone from the children’s fortress come to mind), or didn’t get good development down the road. In the action scenes, they made questionable decisions, and much of the character quality dropped with the story quality, which was a shame. Wish we could also know more about Bisco’s backstory and some more details about mushroom keepers and more about rusting in general. For Milo, the developments he got felt out of place, as characters shouldn’t be turning their personality into something that seems like the polar opposite for their personality, it was just a bit much. As for the villain, Kurokawa, he was way too basic, and his demise was very anticlimactic. ENJOYMENT: 7.8/15 Enjoyment declined with the overall narrative, but I enjoyed the first part. THEMATIC EXECUTION: 12/20 This show tries their hand at many themes, and I do think they build the atmosphere nicely, with that dark tone around Imihama, and overall in the story. The adventure element was alright, but the action themes weren’t all that great, especially the last part against the Tetsujin, because of the plot issues there. The emotional side to the story did not pan out due to the tragic situations being clearly avoidable. OVERALL: 50.1/100 It’s really a shame that the climax wasn’t executed very well, and made the story fall off afterwards, but for what it’s worth, the world had a nice vibe to it, and it was definitely an attempt at an unique concept, but it wasn’t flushed out very well. Last bit seemed rushed, but pacing seemed to be an issue throughout. 8/10 for the first eight episodes, 2/10 for the last four episodes. For Studio Oz’s first anime, it was average, and we hope to see some better things from them in the future. Reviewer’s Rating: 5 What did you think of this review?

If the show has terrible characters, then I would state that, if it has sluggish animation, I would say that too. However, most of that is put in particular aspects in which anything referring to art would be talked about the artistic backgrounds and designs of our characters. For this particular case, I want to make a different approach to this anime called Sabikui Bisco and make a full-fledged review, vastly different from what I have written. Without further ado, time to start. "I love you." Ah ... yes, Sabikui Bisco. When I first looked at the trailer, I thought I was promised an intriguing world filled with mysteries and bizarre details that caused the world they lived into oblivion. The characters had unique designs and stand out, the soundtrack was also quite bizarre, which took a while for me to settle, but I found it to be quite fitting. If I were to remember, I rewatched the preview about 10 different times, becoming one of my anticipated shows this Winter. As I have said, I was hoping for an enriched apocalyptic world that had something to show other than its competitors. Unfortunately, I am filled with sheer disappointment as every episode that came out, it was getting worse the more I looked at it. First, we must talk about the story, the synopsis of the story unravels about a post-apocalyptic Tokyo after being poisoned by the plague-like wind of rust. From the first sentence, it's already a problem. Rust is supposedly a reaction that only happens to anything that is mostly pure metal, which the show is also derived from, which led me flabbergasted, as such a thing would never exist to infect innocent people and usurp people's lives. But hey, it's all fiction, why should it matter if the author decides to make rust a plague? It is an issue because there are plenty of things that I feel like that are overlooked by the author when he made this. If such a thing called rust wind exists, then people who are venturing are not wearing armour that is resistant to rust, which I'm not seeing here. Why aren't the people using metal sacrifice to protect themselves from rust? Does the show has never heard of the term 'electroplating'? I believe all the chemist professionals happened to die on that day. It's not only the fact that it's severely illogical in terms of its setting but how the author decided to introduce a cure right off the bat that can supposedly 'eat' rust, which then again is just a way to turn it into a prophecy. The approach of having a certain cure where there are already things proven to prevent corrosion of metal or even the show's main threat, rust is beyond me. I could not believe it myself. Enough about the stupid lore, now the story. The story is without a doubt inconsistent and convoluted. In the first few episodes, I was not liking how the show was reluctant on showing us the action, one of the things I was highly expecting. Their exposition of dialogue bored me to death until the last few minutes when something actually happens. A mushroom spawner can make himself fly because, for some reason, it can launch him and grow instantly without any withdrawal symptoms from it. They both met and decided to find the rare 'Sabikui', a mushroom that will cure the doctor's sister's disease that has plagued her body. Then, when the first few episodes were finally over, it decided to turn into an adventure between a goody-two-shoes doctor and a screaming archer who don't know where they are heading. From what I can discern from that part, the show shows more interest in going for anything that suits the current tone of the story, no matter how inconsistent and stupid it is. I was genuinely furious when Episode 9 came along, like the author thought he was doing good writing by having us shocked but ended up making more plot conveniences than Dragon Ball Z, a show notorious for its story stretching further because of abundant plot conveniences. The show was so focused on finishing the story it started, everything felt rushed the moment Milo decided to assault the main villain. My next point is about art. There's not much to say about it honestly. The characters from an artistic point are not that bad but their art backgrounds don't practically stand out much. But I realise that the stupid mushrooms spawning out from Bisco's arrows was getting on my nerves as if those are the only things he can do other than screaming and sometimes being a motivational guy when the time is convenient. What had me legitimately done was the Iron Titan, which happened to be the ugliest thing I have seen made in CGI, in which I do not hate CGI animations whatsoever, but damn, I remember the Titan is more disgusting than it being a dangerous threat. Now to the characters, let's say that I was not quite fond of the characters in this show. Their choice of dialogue is so awkward and edgy most of the time. Character development seemed to be forced for the sake of the plot. The villain of the story sounds threatening but was nothing more than a side villain who completely sucks. Kurokawa was as uninteresting as he was annoying, who existed only to make the main character die, yes indeed it happened. A prime example of that is Milo, whose personality takes a 180 during the last few episodes after portraying himself as a well-mannered, compassionate and determined person, decided to be like his counterpart who is known to be childish, aggressive and downright dumb most of the time unless the plot decides to make him intelligent. This for some reason, threw me off and had me confused as it doesn’t make any particular sense in the slightest to have this happen. Not only that, the side characters of this show other than the main duo just feels... fake. Pawoo, a lady portrayed as a sexy fighter with rusts on her body seems to be there for the fanservice and nothing else, despite being the main reason for the doctor to go on an adventure in the first place. Even as the plot goes on, I cannot indulge myself with the fact that Pawoo is supposed to be a character and nothing more than an image of lust. The only decent character out of them was Jabi, who had something to say for himself, but yet again, he doesn't seem to be anything that amazing where the main character has talked about him. Tirol on the other hand had something, but it was disappointing that she doesn't get much attention other than a few particular episodes. In the end, the characters of the show are incredibly poor and easily forgettable. In terms of enjoyment, it felt like my time was wasted on this junk, which successfully fooled me into thinking it's an actual good piece of fiction, which it's nothing more than trash. I regretted not listening to others who knew what they were getting into, its tendency of pulling out plot conveniences, contradicting characters, forced character development, rushed storytelling, and illogical lore. "I'm telling you it's overrated!" Overall, do not watch this anime in any circumstances. You will regret it. Hence, I end my review about Sabikui Bisco. Also, screw you too, Sabikui Bisco.
