Artiswitch is a 2021 original internet anime produced by studio Sunrise targeted to millennials and Gen Z people. The series revolve around a certain shop that makes its customers look deeper in themselves, telling that they should be true in themselves. While this didn't gain traction while it was airing and never got the Odd Taxi effect (where the popularity boomed after airing its final episode), this series still needs to be noticed.

The story talks about the shop owner, who is shown in the first gif of this review, named Nina, a witch who owns the store and is visited by customers who have problems within themselves. The story in each episode is focused on whoever the customer is, and how it affects Nina. excerpt from pierochan.tumblr.com The story loves to put metaphors and symbolisms all around the series and at times it is used creatively. This series was meant to become relatable to the audience, however the connections between the show and the audience don't seem to be strong enough. I'm guessing it's because there are scenes in which the viewer just couldn't relate with it. Asking myself, I felt highly relatable watching the third episode, and I don't even know why. excerpt from melchess.tumblr.com

The customers help in making this series good. While they went through the same thing, each one of them lead to new stories in their life. Some had a better life, some had better hopes in themselves, and some failed. Character development is obviously present because they're reflecting and changing themselves, presented like an animated music video.

excerpt from pttcomics.com This is where Artiswitch stands out above most series this year-- the amazing insert songs and breathtaking art. The studio really made the design of the anime as aesthetic and attracting as possible, and it is no lie that they didn't fail in doing so. I feel like the purpose of this series is to make a music video of 6 of their featured songs, 1 from each various artist. The way the anime presents these music videos greatly enhance the entertainment. Personally I enjoyed this series. While I was watching this along with seasonals, I honestly felt like watching this ONA more instead ofthe others. Watching and waiting for more episodes of it was completely worth it, and tbh I wish they make more. luckily there's a picture drama I could look forward by Winter 2022. excerpt from jisatsual.tumblr.com In conclusion, the series talks about being true to yourself, presented in an aesthetic music video. While the shining aspects (the music and art) give traction to the series, the stories remain good and appropriate within each episode, even though it lacks a bit. This series is recommended for people who watch for art, for songs, or for somebody who wants to dive deeper (in terms of analysis).

And yes, I want to dive in deeper.
