16bit Sensation can please fans of old school games.
Several timelines allow you to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of change.
The anime theme is on the edge.
The fall season was packed with excellent new releases, but there are some anime that didn't get much recognition. One of them is 16bit Sensation: Another Layer by Silver Studios. The title didn't get a lot of views or high scores. However, it has some good sides. Especially 16bit Sensation can please fans of old school games.
But what is wrong with this anime and why is it so strange?
Geek paradise
This story is about a dreamy girl named Konoha Akisato. She likes drawing and her love for cute and beautiful girls is even stronger. Konoha wants to create her own big game where she can use all her imagination and skills as an illustrator. However, fate does not favor her. Her favorite genre is in decline, no one is interested in big games, and she has to work on erotic games as a backup artist, dealing with secondary characters.
But Konoha doesn't give up! One day, she finds a mysterious shop where an old lady sells games. The girl befriends her and the old woman gives Konoha some games. They turn out to be unusual! After opening the box, Konoha finds herself in the past, in the era of bishoujo games. She joins a small studio and makes her dreams come true.
So embarrassing…
16bit Sensation: Another Layer is the perfect anime for geeks. It doesn't have beautiful visuals, but that's probably an advantage, since everything is done in the spirit of old games. Anime is full of 90s nostalgia. There are not only old school games, but also old computers with floppy disks. Several timelines allow you to feel the atmosphere of change. The beginning of the 90s differs from the end, so viewers can fully experience the dynamic development of technology.
Nevertheless, the anime is very difficult to watch. Perhaps the most distracting and even annoying element is the main character. There are a lot of her in the anime. Konoha is very loud and almost never stops talking (even other characters notice this). Sometimes her actions seem so strange and inappropriate that it is embarrassing.
The theme of the anime is also on the edge. Games about young and beautiful girls are interesting for a special group of users. And this is not a stereotype! Heroes themselves are aware of the unhealthy nature of their hobby. Of course, there are other controversial aspects, such as unstable narration, lack of important events in the plot and boring characters, but it seems that 16bit Sensation: Another Layer can find its special audience who will accept all its flaws and dive into the world of bishoujo games with pleasure.
Reality is so lame!
