This is another masterpiece done by Kyoto Animation. Can they do no wrong? It's a great slice-of-life school anime with a good mix of mystery, drama and a bit of romance (wish there was a bit more personally). I really loved how this series was very realistic in its scenarios, drama and character development which really helped me fall in love with the charming characters even more. Obviously, the art, animation and music are off the charts too. I just pray that there is a second season or movie to tie up the ending (beautifully done but I need my romantic conclusions!!).

Pretty solid 7/10 series. Awesome dub, beatiful drawings and nice OST. However, the week point was the narrative, as it didn`t exist. With a proper storytelling, It would be easily a 9/10 or 10/10. few Episodes were also filler content..

First off, I really can't ignore the power of the graphics. They are absolutely marvelous and I can tell how much effort Kyoto Animation puts into every detail. It does have a somewhat laid back start where it feels as if the story is going nowhere, but I recommend you stick through the series at least until episode 5 where the first mystery that arches over multiple episodes wraps up. At that point, you'll have a good idea whether this slice of life, but really a mystery drama, Anime suits your tastes. As for me, I quite enjoyed it. I took it slowly compared to others that I rush and binge through, but it was still enjoyable regardless.

Like some mystery in your not-so-typical slice-of-life anime? This is the anime for you! Engaging characters, stories engrossed in detail that show a multitudes of art styles. Hyouka is nothing short of a work of art.
