Future Diary (Mirai Nikki)

Yukiteru Amano, a junior high student, has trouble making friends. He views himself as a spectator from the sidelines and often writes down what he sees in a cell phone diary. Tormented by solitude, Yukiteru interacts with his imaginary friends Deus Ex Machina, the God of Time and Space, and Muru Muru, Deus's servant. One day, Deus grants Yukiteru's cell phone the ability to record the future for the next 90 days. Yukiteru is then forced to participate in a battle royale with eleven other people, each of whom also have a diary that can predict the future in some unique way. The rules of the game are simple: before the world ends on day 90, the contestants must find and kill all the other contestants, and the last one standing will become Deus's successor.
So clearly I’m not advocating the idea of mass murder or anything, however the title is completely appropriate with the anime I chose to review this week, Mirai Nikki -Future Diaries-
This series is unlike anything that I normally watch. It’s completely barbaric, psychotic, confusing, and totally amazing. This show follows the life of a boy named Yuki who is entering middle school. His entire life, he always had problems creating lasting friendships with people. Eventually he found himself recording events around him through a diary on his phone, and stopped engaging in conversation with people. When Yuki was home from school, he would go to his room and escape into another world with a God named Deus. One day, Deus offers Yuki the chance to participate in a game, turning the diary on his phone into a “future diary” that would predict events for the next 3 months. Yuki accepts and finds himself out and about carefree since he knows exactly what happens everyday. Little did he know there are 11 other diary owners, each with a unique ability to predict different things. The purpose you ask? The purpose of this game is to find the other diary owners (whose identities are kept secret by Deus) and kill them.
What happens to the last one standing? Oh nothing major, they just become God. HOW AWESOME IS THAT? So Yuki finds himself scared, trapped and weak since he has no ability at all to take on the other 11 future diary owners. Luckily for him, a wonderful girl named Yuno who had been stalking him secretly for a year prior to all this happening was willing to help. She was also a future diary owner herself. Her future diary you ask? it was a diary of Yuki’s life. This basically proves that they are a perfect match for one another. How cute. This anime is literally one of the most interesting things I’ve watched in my life, and it would be a mistake to not consider watching it. I understand not everyone loves anime, or it’s more that people are too stubborn to try it, but you should really consider watching this. Each character changes drastically, you never know what is going to happen, there are new characters every few episodes, the list goes on to why this anime is just so perfect.



Watch it.
i know you gonna like it <3
