Review

The God of High School is one more plotless or little plot activity anime. With regards to activity animes like these there are consistently fans who will consistently consider it a work of art. 

Story - 2/10 

Totally zero plot. Simply battling. They take a stab at including puzzles and some plot however it's not done appropriately. Which aggravates the show even more. It's like they tossed in a plot to improve it... 

Workmanship - 7/10 

I can't get over the way that they have red noses and red ears. It makes them look alcoholic marginally and doesn't make them look practical. In any case, the craftsmanship was acceptable, yet in general it was truly very much done. 

Sound - 7/10 

I disdain the introduction and the liveliness that goes with the introduction yet the audio effects and music that is remembered for the entire anime are all around done. 

Pleasure - 6/10 

I delighted in the careless battling, I can say this without a doubt that any individual who adores battling can appreciate this anime.

Animation - 9/10

The animation for GOHS was the main attraction of this anime, the animation is realistic and the special effects that go with the animation are excellent. I think this is the second to third ranking of animation in my anime ranking.
