‘ Angel Beats‘ has some serious potential, but it just fails to stand out because of all the rushing. This is the reason why it lacks the “oomph!” factor to it. The cast is great but the pacing affects their performances and all of them appear to be disconnected from what they are trying to portray in the show. I guess the 13 episode format just turned out to be a bad idea because, as creative as most of the ideas presented to us may seem, most of them just feel out-of-place and rushed. But contrary to that, the anime just jumps from one plot twist to another with no time for you to breathe.
Now the chaos may not necessarily be a negative for the anime because at times, it’s the chaos that help you understand the characters on a deeper level. But with 13 episodes and so much revealing going on throughout the show, all of it becomes very chaotic.
