DESCRIPTION

The manga which this will be based off follows Justice Akazuka (nickname Seigi), a young man who is good at martial arts. Seigi rescues a homeless old man on the street one day from some thugs, and the man gives Seigi an object that imprints a tattoo on his palm. However, it is not an ordinary tattoo, but a special weapon that gives Seigi supernatural powers such as warping space-time. Seigi then meets a female American agent named Ijii, whose duty is to recover the tattoos. Seigi decides to help her and gets wrapped up in a cross-national conspiracy.

0/100
An affront to the animated medium, both anime and otherwise. To date, the worst show I've ever seen.
I like to think that I've sat through some terrible anime in my time. Black Bullet, Comet Lucifer, Mayoiga, Another, you name it. I'm a 'NoDrop' watcher, so I've seen my fair share of shit shows. Never did I think that a show would come along that was so incredibly bad, so intellectually bankrupt, that it would completely redefine what I would consider a "bad anime series".

I'll spoil the score for you right now: Taboo Tattoo is a legitimate 0/10. It has zero merit as a piece of art, animated work, or general entertainment. I would have much rather gouged out my own eyes than watched this series, and given the choice I'd have reached for the nearest rusty spoon in an instant. This show has no idea where it's going, what it's doing, or what it wants to do. At first, I thought this show was going to this season's Bungou Stray Dogs, where the story is retarded but at least the character designs and fights were cool enough to keep me halfway interested, but the animation quality for Taboo Tattoo took a complete nosedive after episode 1, devolving into commonplace CG and slideshow-like animation from that point forward. I distinctly remember a scene where a walking character simply didn't have an animated walk cycle, and instead her drawing translated about the screen freely. The music and art are also incredibly generic and bad, especially for a studio like J.C. Staff who at the very least produces consistently endearing character designs.

With a show this bad, you'd think that it was trying to be some sort of parody, but it's not. The characters of the show are it's standout terrible feature, with all of them having contrived and ridiculously plot convenient super powers that manifest out of tattoos of all things. Our MC is literally named "Justice", and has the best super power that is activated for free by the nature of him being the biggest, most tired trope. We have childhood-friend-big-tits McGee who is overused for the short half of the series that she is alive for the purposes of otaku pandering fanservice shots and light novel powertrip fantasies. We have Rin Tohsaka look-alike Antagonist Hime, who is incredibly gay and not much else. Like, no, she's actually a lesbian and the occasional yuribait jokes (of which there are maybe 4 or 5 total) are the only thing that even got me to look up from my phone. There's also the best fucking character ever, Bluesy Fruesy, the American secret services agent that's been sent to Japan to oversee tattao collection. Bluesy. Fruesy. That is a characters fucking actual name.

This show is an absolute dumpster fire. It regularly set new lows for the entire medium every single fucking week. Avoid it like the plague. I sat through it so you don't have to. The worst about it is that MAL and AL won't let me rate it a 0 because the site doesn't support a rating that bad.
