Summary:
Mekaku City Actors starts off following a young man by the name of Kisaragi Shintaro (Terashima Takuma) who has an IQ of 168, but is also a hikkomori. His life revolves around his computer and the internet, which unexpectedly breaks down one day as a result of Ene (Asumi Kana) provoking him. Ene is a cyber-female who was mysteriously sent as a download to Shintaro a year ago. Now she resides in Shintaro's computer, phone and all other electronic devices. On the fateful day that Shintaro's computer dies, he ventures outside his home for the first time in two years and attempts to buy himself a new one. Unfortunately, he's held hostage by a gang of robbers who holds everyone in the mall for ransom. When Shintaro attempts to escape and free everyone, he's knocked unconscious. When he wakes up, he finds himself at Mekakushi Dan's headquarters – a gang of teenagers (including his own sister) with odd personalities but extraordinary "eye" powers. They extend him an invitation to join their group, which he accepts.
Own opinion:
It all started in a vocaloid series of songs by Jin. The song and story plot, it's amazing really you should listen to it! By the way it was originally called Kagerou Project, and also one last warning if you are going to watch this make sure to read the manga, light novel and listen the kagerou project series because it will have different endings and different routes so make sure not to get confused.
Rank: 5 over 5 stars
