Re: Hamatora English Sub & Dub

About Re: Hamatora

If you are hunting for a new comedy series, Re: Hamatora (Re:␣ハマトラ) deserves a look (2014). The setup goes like this. In short: It has been three months since the incident at Yokohama. Things have been settling down at Cafe Nowhere.

Also worth knowing: Murasaki and Hajime have teamed up and started investigating again. After an unforeseen reunion, Art holds Nice at gunpoint. What are his real intentions?

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Nice (Ryouta Oosaka) and Murasaki (Wataru Hatano) are two of the characters you will meet early. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Lerche and NAZ, which means the visual identity of Re: Hamatora follows that studio's craft. Because it leans on comedy, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. At 7.0/10 it earns a solid reception, a safe pick for fans of the genre. On the casting side, Ryouta Oosaka voicing Nice gives the lead role a recognizable voice. It aired in 2014, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
