The Silver spoon was real after all…
Story/Plot: we have the story of Hachiken, a young high school boy who enrolled an agriculture school/college in order to escape his past and to find new opportunities along the career he is pursuing to. This follows up season 1 right off which is something I like about this series. Along his journey, Hachiken gets to meet many friends, many experiences, and the harshness he goes through facing reality which is something we all experience at some point in our lives. What I like about this, as the story goes on, is the viewer learns about the agriculture environment such as working in the field, how to make cheese, how to make bacon, dealing with the livestock, among others important things. The lessons this anime is bringing upon us is truly meaningful. (9.5)
Characters: If there’s something I like the most in this is the dialogue and the character development. Every character has his/her own goal and each one of them got his/her own problem to take care of. We get to see how they grow up and learn according to the different tasks they get involved as well. The comedy approach always comes in the right moment and somehow that’s something I find important in a slice of life. (10)
Animation: A-1 pictures delivers a great animation and quality for this series. The backgrounds, the animals and the characters seem to be in the right picture. Props to them. (9)
Sound: Beautiful melodies and sound effects for the drama moments and all the characters. The Opening song was good and the ending song was lovely from my perspective. (9)
Final thoughts:
Gin no saji is one of those series that should be on the top list. It’s a shame is considered an underrated anime having such a great story. Hopefully we’ll get to see a Third season…we need more anime like this.
Overall: (9.5/10)
