Don't tell me it's because of the art and it's characters designed as animal's intentionally. Man, people still haven't learned to embrace other animes for it's unique and distinctive art.
@@joelliu2309 dude there are many weird anime out there. This isn’t the first nor will it be the last. Trust me, letting things like that concern you will only narrow down your overall enjoyment of anime.
@@joelliu2309 it’s literally my favourite anime of last season, the dialogue and the witty comebacks from everyone are awesome. And the ending surprised everyone
19:32 According to the Audio Dramas, it was first with Taeko (as seen here), then she gives the pen to Goriki, who later gives it to Odokawa and then so on and so fort.
I can’t help but wonder why that is. I have a dream to publish my own books and stories someday in the form of coloring books and graphic novels. But every time I try to start something I get doubts in my mind and when I do show them nobody understands them. What does it take I wonder to share something that goes unnoticed
This made me actually start to wonder if I would feel calmer and confident if I found a boyfriend. I’ve only had one in my life. I once joked that when this pandemic is over that I’d hunt down all the boys. 😅
@@awesomesause1116 the comments are open while the video waits for its premiere. Also, I'd be more than a little bugged if Oddtaxi doesn't get its due ♡
After seeing all the episodes and now watching this first one again, I can't help but see it differently knowing what I know and really notice things and characters who I wouldn't have thought twice about! Love it!
This whole anime is fantastic. I keep coming back to this video just to watch the opening scene with the idol song. It's such great foreshadowing for all the characters we meet and the parts they play in the story, even if you don't realize it on your first watch. On top of that, the combination of the music and the visual beats that go along with them is kind of mesmerizing. It really gives the feeling of "something's about to start" and the final part of the scene where the music shifts from what we the audience hear to how it sounds on Odokawa's radio is a fantastic transition from a prelude to the story proper.
5:33 - 5:41 These words hit me the very first time I heard them: they already introduce Odokawa as the simple and kind man he will act as, although he's also a bit too much blunt (5:43, 14:41) and never breaks his character as a middle-aged man unable to juggle well with young people's world (7:01 - 7:14). Most all of this characteristics relate to his backstory in one way or another, and it's also amazing to see how deeply he has developed in only 13 episodes.
Every week I kept wondering why this anime never made the Top 10 lists. Yeah, maybe people prefer fan service over anthropomorphic characters, but this was my show of the season. I won't spoil anything, watch this and you'll know if you want to watch the rest.
Oddtaxi? More like Godtaxi, this show is legit freaking amazing, the first ep. got me hooked all the way back in april with the Tarantino-like dialogue, the tight mystery kept me invested and the giga plot twist in the last ep could give Shyamalan a heart attack. If you haven't yet, you owe it to yourself to watch this modern classic. Also, Burusu Springstii.
top 10 most underrated anime in history The way the mysteries add up throughout the show then get solved all together in the final episode is just amazing Not to mention how they all link together
its so hard to respond to people when they ask why they are animal and i just have to pretend the best i can that ive only seen the first half as i explain it to them lol
For anyone put off by the aesthetic: endure it, this anime would not exist without it, it's integral to the mystery. Best writing of any anime this year, think Paranoia Agent, Tarantino, Innaritu, swirled into an mystery.
I dont usually like anime with dark scenery or no fight scenes but I'd rate this a 9/10 because of good characters and a great ending. Not to mention the story and the animation.
When i went to petco, the guy working there saw my anime shirt (i dont remember which one i was wearing) and he told me to watch this. I never saw him again but i think of him when i come back to this. Hope hes happy and well
Please please please watch Odd Taxi, it is honestly one of the best anime that I've ever seen. If you liked Durarara you will love Odd Taxi, it has the same vibe but more realistic. And yes the animals are off putting but trust me, they are there for a reason.
I watched the whole series, holy hell was it amazing [Spoliers below, you've been warned] The 'person' in his closet would have been the scariest thing to see
so, first time seeing this episode, but some details I noticed when rewatching this episode. 3:38. this alpaca is stealing the drugs later mentioned 21:23-21:46. Edit: so at 12:04 we see the silhouette of possibly the alpaca selling the stolen drugs to Dobu also, this is something I noticed the first time through, at 1:55 we hear about someone going missing in Nerima. later, at 2:38, the radio station receives mail from a Tokyo high school student, the exact same description of the missing student in Nerima. later, at 4:28, we have this exchange. Odokawa: where to? that blue hippo: Nerima

Thanks for Episode 1
I can't wait to watch Odd Taxi on Crunchyroll on Labor Day, yeah!?
@@williamchico6553 well, how was it?
I don't think I will lol.....
more people should watch oddtaxi, a lot of people don’t consider his an “actual anime” for some reason when it really is an amazing one
Don't tell me it's because of the art and it's characters designed as animal's intentionally. Man, people still haven't learned to embrace other animes for it's unique and distinctive art.

Good to know crunchyroll has taken a break from suggestive titles.
Aww I liked them! 😏
I believe that’s only for clips though, not entire episodes
@@sundaybrunch1400 yeah, maybe they use the titles more to spread the anime.
And now they're gonna start again

You’re an absolute god, whoever suggested this be put on TH-cam.

THIS. I have to go and rewatch it all because honestly I'd forgotten about the eraser.

Honestly people shouldn’t be sleeping on this, it’s such an interesting show and generally is worth a watch yet barely anyone is talking about it
Amen
Why are you white you was born in a place full of brown people but you turn out white..... kinda sus.
They hated Jesus for he spoke the truth
I hope it well be buzzing after awhile as many anime did.

This is an anime that’s actually relatable and more realistic
Many of us are friends with mobsters, are we?
EDIT: Having just finished the series, I repent of my ignorant comment.
@@HolyKhaaaaan 😂😂😂
@@HolyKhaaaaan lol 😂
This made me actually start to wonder if I would feel calmer and confident if I found a boyfriend. I’ve only had one in my life. I once joked that when this pandemic is over that I’d hunt down all the boys. 😅
Lately I've found that shows with animal people seem to have the most relatable characters (this show, Aggretsuko, and Bojack Horseman)
The character design on this is so incredibly charming
I’m actually trying to practice my own humanoid animal designs myself ☺️

Top 10? Way higher than that imo. Top 3 atleast
How did you guys comment hours before it even premiered
@@awesomesause1116 the comments are open while the video waits for its premiere.

Top 3 at least
It's the best original anime so far hands down. And I'd be surprised if anything better comes up in the next two seasons
After seeing all the episodes and now watching this first one again, I can't help but see it differently knowing what I know and really notice things and characters who I wouldn't have thought twice about! Love it!
The conversation in this show feels so natural. The bar scene is my favorite because It genuinely feels like a normal conversation between friends

I hope this inspires more people to watch.
This is my fav anime this season.
man, Toonami really needs to put this anime in their block.
i started this a few days ago and i can tell you right now
please don't sleep on this anime. the writing is phenomenal
Oddtaxi? More like Godtaxi, this show is legit freaking amazing, the first ep. got me hooked all the way back in april with the Tarantino-like dialogue, the tight mystery kept me invested and the giga plot twist in the last ep could give Shyamalan a heart attack.

10/10. A Masterpiece. It's like if Quentin Tarantino made an anime.
Watch Baccano, also looks like an anime made by Tarantino
Not enough feet, toe beans, and face stepping.
@@earthboundman5769 that shows soundtrack is fire
Not enough Nwords
I really don't see Tarantino here, more like the Cohen.
We need to get this show snubbed at the Emmys it's so amazing
the twist of the last episode (foreshadowed MANY times across the series) alone makes it an 8/10 easily.
wow just binged it in one sitting, this is an absolute masterpiece
I'm glad I didn't skip the anime it was well worth it
Rewatching episode 1 is such an eye opening experience.
Just binged this today two years after release. It’s crazy how the writing is better the second time around
top 10 most underrated anime in history
The way the mysteries add up throughout the show then get solved all together in the final episode is just
amazing
Not to mention how they all link together
"I guessed on the vision tests", after seeing the last episode, I can imagine why.
Odd Taxi blew my mind and got me into anime. First one I've seen but definitely wont be the last.
total mind blower at the end. Really hoping for a season 2.
I’m glad Gigguk made a video on this as well, I was afraid it wouldn’t get very popular. This was too great to go unnoticed.
This is the anime of the year.. god damn what a masterful series
Oh my god that opening is just beautiful
And full of spoilers
Honestly the animation style adds so much to this show
Awesome, intriguing, and emotionally powerful, the ending made me cry
Watch it. Especially if you’re choosing not to because they’re animals. That makes it even better, watch and *finish* it.
I just want it to get the attraction it deserves.
its so hard to respond to people when they ask why they are animal and i just have to pretend the best i can that ive only seen the first half as i explain it to them lol
@@davidolinger3948 You dont even need to do that much, just say its just an anthropomorphic world like Zootopia
For anyone put off by the aesthetic: endure it, this anime would not exist without it, it's integral to the mystery.
Best writing of any anime this year, think Paranoia Agent, Tarantino, Innaritu, swirled into an mystery.
No.
Great to see Crunchyroll posting peak fiction when it ended
I never watched this anime, but I already love the art style from the thumbnail! Reminds me of Ghibli...
Shotooooooo
I wish I could do art like that so badly
actual masterpiece
11:25 dammit young man, you had one job. Don't forget anything in the taxi.
I dont usually like anime with dark scenery or no fight scenes but I'd rate this a 9/10 because of good characters and a great ending. Not to mention the story and the animation.
This is probably the anime of the year.
Rewatching this episode there’s so much foreshadowing
Such a cute show! I love the dark themes to it, really makes it interesting!
I just love Dobu chasing Yano in the intro
Most underrated anime
When i went to petco, the guy working there saw my anime shirt (i dont remember which one i was wearing) and he told me to watch this. I never saw him again but i think of him when i come back to this. Hope hes happy and well
Show of the year ngl 🤷🏽♂️
True
2nd best anime of the year
Redo of Healer is a masterpiece so good that even Odd Taxi can defeat it.
I loved the end anyone watching this for the first time should binge it somewhere
I just noticed, 9:34 Odokawa says he guessed on the vision test, great foreshadowing :D
Odd Taxi was so legit 🙌🙌🙌
This, 86, Megalo Box Nomad. This spring was such a buffet of great anime.
I somehow ended up skipping this show but this Ep1 reminds me that I had missed out on something I HAVE to trace back and watch.
Looking at the comment section for reviews is like asking your grandma if you’re handsome
Criminally underrated anime.
10/10
The banter between Odakawa and Gouriki, especially about We Are the World is soooo Tarantino
Please please please watch Odd Taxi, it is honestly one of the best anime that I've ever seen. If you liked Durarara you will love Odd Taxi, it has the same vibe but more realistic. And yes the animals are off putting but trust me, they are there for a reason.
The hints and details, when you know the truth and rewatch, it clicks and makes everything feel like you are having an entirely different experience.
Oh my god. An anime with a normal and short title, and I'm hooked to it.
Finally they are back with good anime
I had to check out the first episode to see if it's as good as everyone said and so far it's living up to the hype
that theme song is fire
Its one of the best anime I've ever watched
10/10 the best anime of the season
Odd taxi has one of the best endings ive seen in anime
This might be one of the last times you see a taxi in an anime, since Uber and Lift are slowly eliminating them.
it's so hard recommending people oddtaxi without spoiling anything. you really have to go full trust me bro
So glad Crunchyroll put up some of the good stuff! ♡
It gave me _such_ DRRR vibes. ^^
One of my favorite summer animes
The fact that so many people are sleeping on this upsets me
4:24 Legoshi from Beastars with Shaved fur
I remember seeing a trailer for this and I completely forgot about this. So far it looks pretty good I'll give it a shot.
Much thanks to my friend for recommending this anime i’m hooked!
This show is so underrated. 10/10
Well until the next season of Aggretsuko and Beastars drops this will tide me over.
Best opening and song 2021
Ended up loving this show 🎉
The intro is a such a vibe
"Say Bruce Springsteen three times fast..." 😭😭😭
bruce springsteen
bruce springsteen
bruce springsteen
What a fantastic series! So glad I decided to watch it, instant classic!
Rewatching this you relize you need to watch this more than once
Why tf is there so much plot in ep 1?! Incredible.
I watched the whole series, holy hell was it amazing
[Spoliers below, you've been warned]
The 'person' in his closet would have been the scariest thing to see
I can feel this anime's soul
This anime is amazing!! A bit slow at the start for my liking but it's worth it.
Sounds like zura's seiyuu, love it
I guess I have to find a route to this show, because I loved Episode 1
so, first time seeing this episode, but some details I noticed when rewatching this episode. 3:38. this alpaca is stealing the drugs later mentioned 21:23-21:46.
Edit: so at 12:04 we see the silhouette of possibly the alpaca selling the stolen drugs to Dobu
also, this is something I noticed the first time through, at 1:55 we hear about someone going missing in Nerima. later, at 2:38, the radio station receives mail from a Tokyo high school student, the exact same description of the missing student in Nerima. later, at 4:28, we have this exchange. Odokawa: where to?
that blue hippo: Nerima
Super eyepatch wolf had me interested in this. Glad I can catch the first episode on TH-cam to try it out. Thanks crunchy roll
i knew what would happen on the last episode but i was still surprised
Almost as surprising as....your display name
So good, I liked it!
I prefer this over Beastars any day!
21:59 foreshadowing o.o
criminally underrated
The ending of the show hit different
The music is so good!
14:23 they even tease about it on first episode
I like the bear and fox/wolf it looks like both ☺️ but at 4:58 you can see them
