Mar 25, 2013 Stark700 Recommended When I first started watching this series, I originally thought, “Oh, it's just another anime with cool guys and girls using superpowers and flying around like Superman-wannabees.”. Of course, that was before I watched its parent story, Zettai Karen Children. But more so, it was before I fully embraced the spinoff known as Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited - Hyoubu Kyousuke. This new piece of work that Manglobe is presenting here could be defined as their latest line in their evolution of supernatural phenomenon. In fact, Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited takes supernatural with a world of super powers and transforms it into profound ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 25, 2013 Irenesharda Recommended Preliminary (11/12 eps) I waited until the end of the series to write my review, and all I have to say: This is one of the most underrated and also best animes of this year. Yes, I know that it's only winter season, but I don't care, I am going to steadfastly stand by that declaration. I have been watching anime for quite some years now, and I've seen some really good ones and some really bad ones. I've seen some that touch my heart and some that make me cringe. However, I have never had one that has consistently from beginning to end, roped me in and ... Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 4, 2013 Nipsirc Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) Why is know one watching this show? Literally not one person i know has even considered it. I've not watched much of the original Zettai Karen Children, the age of the cast, and tone of the show, suggested i wasn't going to get remotely near 50+ episode interest levels. But both short comings are now gone, the show is an appealing 12 episodes, the original cast are all several years older and supporting characters, with a significantly older cast put in place, and the tone seems far more serious. Think the difference between Fate Zero and Fate/Stay Night. Any prior knowledge of the franchise seems completely ... Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 17, 2015 B3astpwn Recommended This anime is 12 episodes long. It's fast paced with lots of action scenes, sarcastic moments, sad moments, pretty much everything. When i first saw the first episode i knew i was going to enjoy this anime. It has that compassion side towards it, where not many action anime's have it so early into the anime. Story 9/10 I've rated the story 9/10 because for starters, it's 12 episodes long. It's fast paced which i like especially for a short series. The plot makes sense, and the pace is very smooth. Art 10/10 The art you see in this anime may remind you of the newer animes, like ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 26, 2013 Toucanbird Recommended The Unlimited - Hyoubu Kyousuke: It Has Its Limits Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited was actually one of the more surprisingly good series I watched out of the Winter 2013 lineup. One of the nice things about this series is while it does have the Zettai Karen Children name slapped to this series, you don't actually have to watch the original Zettai Karen Children to understand the story. I certainly hope that didn't deter anyone from watching this series, because it nearly deterred me since I originally had no interest in the series. I originally thought you had to watch the first Zettai Karen Children to ... Read more Open Gift Report
Aug 28, 2013 ktulu007 Mixed Feelings Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited- Hyoubu Kyousuke is a shounen anime based on a manga by Shiina Takashi. The studio behind this adaptation of the series was handled by Manglobe, the studio behind Deadman's Wonderland, Samurai Champloo and Ergo Proxy, along with a bunch of things I haven't seen. I have no idea what to expect from this one. I'd describe that as intriguing, but the last time I expressed excitement at watching something completely unfamiliar I ended up watching Cheesesteak Suppository. Let's just take a look. The story of Zettai Karen Children: Unlimited, henceforth referred to in this review as ZKC:U for the sake of ... Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 14, 2013 Fate25 Recommended Preliminary (8/12 eps) Score: 8/10 "Hyoubu Kyousuke is just freaking cool" I'm very surprised, at the lack of reviews for this anime avaliable at myanimelist.net. Since this is a pretty good show, evidenced by the average high score by the reviews at myanimelist.net Maybe viewers avoided this show due to the name "Zettai Karen Children". An anime with a more kiddy style, aiming for a lower age group. From what I have seen from "Zettai" (which isn't much to be honest). "The Unlimited" could almost be a separate anime itself, Art style, Pacing, Character Design and Music are all different. Maybe the action sequences are similar in that the battles are ...

Jun 11, 2013 Notalice Recommended I have yet to finish the original but The Unlimited H.K. is pretty stand alone as its spin-off focusing on Kyousuke, a sort of enigmatic criminal from Zettai Karen Children. Despite the somewhat lack of depth in plot, character development and just not exploring all the settings to the full extent, there're a few things I really like in this series. First the protagonist is ideally imperfect, strong and likable. His character is significantly enriched through the 2 episodes about his past as well as throughout the entire anime where he takes on a lot of burden to protect his crew. Here, the flashbacks are ... Read more Open Gift Report
May 8, 2015 ggultra2764 Recommended Unlimited Hyobu Kyosuke is a spinoff to Zettai Karen Children that tones down on much of the comedy to the series, focuses more on its darker and serious elements, and shifts major focus from the Children of BABEL to our series titular anti-hero and his comrades among the esper resistance organization known as PANDRA. An esper by the name of Andy Hinomiya with the power to negate esper powers winds up joining PANDRA during one of Kyosuke's missions, being a secret agent sent to infiltrate the organization and finding his loyalties to come into question as he becomes more acquainted with PANDRA's familial environment and ...

Mar 29, 2013 Arixaya Recommended First: I didnt watch more then 1 ep of the original "Zettai Karen Children" and in my opinion it is not necessary to do so. This spinoff is nothing like it. The Anime has an overall "Dark" feeling, and you will like to watch it if you like : Its the story about Hyobu, and how he started to ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 21, 2013 rightyjen Recommended One of the most important things that I loved about this series was that although it was a spin-off, you did not need to watch the original series, Zettai Karen Children, to understand the storyline. In fact, having not watched the original may make this series all the more enjoyable to watch because everything will be new and you’ll be able to watch without previously formed opinions. The artwork is extremely visually appealing. It leaved the childish, overly cartoon-like appearance of the original Zettai Karen Children and enters a more realistic and alluring style. The characters are drawn with dramatic features that draw you in and ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jun 20, 2016 NG_Chloe Recommended I was browsing crunchyroll one day and cane across the unlimited Hyoubu Kyousuke. The description had sold me when it mentioned a silver hair, which for me Silver/white hair is my favorite color of hair. I had no idea what to expect when entering this series. So what I got was awesome. Hyobu is an extremely entertaining character who is not only OP he also tends to be a bit of a troll. Though his can character can be very serious at times in the later parts. The co-star of our story is Andy Hinomiya (a guy who looks strangely like Shun Asanaga from Endride), a character ...

Feb 7, 2017 Ketamigo Recommended First things first: This is a standalone anime. By no means do you have to know anything about the original series to understand or enjoy this one. In fact, I never had even heard of the original series, and when I did look into it, it seemed totally out of my interest zones due to the Loli and little girl bullshit. I hate cutesy anime, and I don't even really like typical Shonen/fighting anime, so I don't plan on watching it anytime soon. The unlimited is, sadly, relatively unknown and therefore under appreciated. Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 27, 2013 Aloha101 Recommended Preliminary (7/12 eps) I am really enjoying this anime. It is visually awesome, the story is pretty good and the characters are likeable for the most part. I have only just watched episode 7 so cant really say its great just yet as it could all go horribly wrong but the end of the series...I hope not. Its a bit of fun, nothing to take seriously and an easy watch - so far 8-9/10 Read more Open Gift Report
Jan 31, 2019 Setrin Mixed Feelings Preliminary (3/12 eps) I got about halfway through this before I had to bail. REVIEW NOTE: I only remember the name of our first main character, Kyousuke and didn't really bother to go back and look the rest up. I may edit this review to reflect that later. The show starts off really interesting, with one of our main characters being chased down by the military and taking down troops, tanks, and helicopters by himself with a barrage of psychic powers. This showed off the show's one truly great aspect- the animation good and the actions scenes are kickass. However, then this same guy turns himself in to a prison ... Read more Open Gift Report
Apr 8, 2013 KelseyWhiteleaf Recommended Wow....the unlimited - Hyobu Kyousuke..... I watched the first episode and I was just immediately hooked. I must admit though that I did not see the mother show, Zettai Karen Children. I had found this and just thought that I had to watch, even though I am still unaware what the mother story actually brought to the table. Story: Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 21, 2013 green2griffin Recommended Preliminary (11/12 eps) A very short Review - In terms of story I think it's a pretty simple, quite easy to follow and understand what's going on at least the majority of the time as long as you learn what the names of things are like 'P.A.N.D.R.A', you will understand. 12 episodes doesn't feel like long enough though, I have 1 episode to go now and I dont feel like the whole thing will be concluded in just 23 minutes, but I dont know yet. The Art is very modern, and for me that's a good thing but really this is dependant on preference. It's somewhat different to ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 3, 2023 1_Narumi_1 Recommended Title: Hyoubu Kyousuke: A Compelling Protagonist in Zettai Karen Children l Rating: ★★★★☆ "Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited - Hyoubu Kyousuke" stands out as an exceptional addition to the "Zettai Karen Children" universe, surpassing its parent story in several key aspects. Moreover, Hyoubu Kyousuke's role as a protagonist in "The Unlimited" demonstrates why he is superior to Kaoru.
