I started watching Moriarty The Patriot 3 days agoā I donāt know why I even kept it waiting since 2021. It has been just 3 days into this masterpiece and I have already bought the first volume of manga, styled a cosplay wig, drabbled fanfiction scripts, memorized DYING WISH (opening 1) and made stickers out of it. I donāt know why, but it hit me so hard. It is the first time in two years that something other than Hypnosis Mic excited me this much!
Though, Hypnosis Mic itself is the reason I started Moriarty in the first placeā I went there only with the expectation of listening to the brilliant voice actor Saito Somaās voice acting! He voices the lead role, Moriarty himself! AND moreover!? The plot reminds me a lot of Psycho Pass, especially season 1! Makishima Shogo is the favorite character of all times in my heart, and in this plot not only does Moriarty have a very similar role to Shogo, they have the same character designer with the person who illustrated part of Psycho Passā manga. The story is less gore and more light hearted compared to Psycho Pass, the art and music is wonderful and the characters are gorgeous.
I have never been someone specifically into crime and murder, I know Sherlock Holmes stories of course, from my childhood books, but I donāt go out of my way to seek detective stories. Again, I only seeked Moriarty The Patriot because I wanted to watch Soma Saitoās voice acting performance. BUT oh boy, not only Soma-san is AMAZING (though Moriarty The Partiot feels like it all is Gentaroās tale he is telling to Dice in his smooth cute voice and he will finish with Uso desu yo), BUT THERE IS SO MUCH MORE! I am so so so happy and amazed of this work by all means!
Definitely recommended!
And if you are a Hypnosis Mic fan, just check it out for Soma Saito. Plot is different, but he is the same gorgeous actor. You can hear Gentaro amongst the lines and it just ADDS UP a lot to the fun! ā¤ļø
