Future Diary (Mirai Nikki) (Randoes battle-royalizing to see who the next God is ft. The most popular Yandere)

 Some High school student is friends with God, only that he thinks God is only their imaginary friend (don't we all?) That is until God informs him that he's going to die and that instead of picking the wisest, kindest, or smartest person he'll just pick some random Japanese of mixed ages and gender to kill each other until the most heartless blood-thirsty sociopath is left standing. A much funnier way of picking a successor to the divine throne, I guess. 

"Let the hunger games... Err. The divine contest begin!" -deus ex
 

Among the contestant we got some charming people: there's the literal serial killer, Bonnie and Clyde, Psycho Nanny, Chucky, Alla Akbar, Hound of Baskerville, Stryker, Daredevil, and some others. The inconsistencies of the series are ginormous and constant, we're not talking of just the "that doesn't make any sense" scenes like the one Yuno discovers that a cherry tomato was poisoned by feeling the "weight difference" while washing them, or the fact that a five-year-old carries a bloody military-grade armory on his Ben 10 backpack, we're talking about scenes drastically changing, sudden unjustified changes in the characters ideologies among other things. There's also the problem that whoever wrote was as uncreative as talentless thinking that the only way to make a tragic backstory for the characters is to insert a rape scene

Plot hole police! Hands in the air!

Whoever scores this anime as genius has a fetish for Yuno and fancies imagining himself in the protagonist's shoes, so starved for love that sees the idea of an obsessive relationship as balsamic, because there isn't anything else to the show than that. (edit suspiciously descriptive, me.) 4/10

The conventional five-star and ten-out-of-ten rating systems have become stale, visually uninspired, and inadequate for capturing the nuance...
