Niv M. Sultan Slant Magazine At its most formidable, the series finds remarkable pathos amid its absurdity. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Polly Conway Common Sense Media This feels primarily like a trippy experiment gone wrong, and even Rick and Morty superfans might want to give it a pass. Sep 4, 2024 Full Review Cheryl Eddy io9.com Throughout, creator Sano’s deep affection for Rick and Morty is quite evident. You can see it in The Anime‘s excitement about inter-dimensional hijinks, outer space battles, and fan-favorite supporting characters that pop up here and there. Aug 16, 2024 Full Review Sean Boelman FandomWire As it stands, the main question fans will be asking when they watch Rick and Morty: The Anime is “Why?” So far, there’s not a good reason. Rated: 5/10 Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Allegra Frank IGN Movies Even if Rick and Morty: The Anime ultimately veers toward inexplicable more than enjoyable, though, it’s never boring -- which you can’t always say about Rick and Morty itself. If nothing else, the anime will go down as an impressive exercise. Rated: 7/10 Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Reuben Baron Looper.com Watching the first two episodes of Rick and Morty: The Anime mostly made me long for another season of Space Dandy. Rated: 5/10 Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Winter H Fails to deliver tone, humor, or style. Feels like a really bad fanfic from a group of writers with nothing interesting to say about the original material. No clue who this was for. Not so-bad-it's-good, just so-bad-it's-cringe. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Emily S Couldn’t even make it through the first episode. The animation is bad, and the story is not only terrible but it makes zero sense. I had no clue what the hell was going on. It was just so insanely bad. Should’ve never existed. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/25 Full Review Valerii Ege D Rick and Morty: The Anime replaces the original's chaotic absurdity with classic anime-style dramatization, resulting in a rather dull experience. I liked the concept, but the execution is far from satisfying. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/25 Full Review Joe Y the anime is very good Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/25 Full Review Name N Die hard rick and morty fan , but this sucks ,i haven't gone past episode 2 even after forcing myself to watch it... Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/25 Full Review Dexter W It felt like someone was trying to tell a story using Rick and Morty as set dressing to do it with, like a weird fan fiction. I don't understand any of the decisions made and it feels nothing like Rick and Morty. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Read all reviews
