Is quoting at length from a critic's review really appropriate for an encyclopedia? Wouldn't it be sufficient to include CBR in the first paragraph without extended quotations? i.e. "Several Anime News Network and Comic Book Resources reviewers..." and then provide the associated articles as links in the footnotes? It is one thing to quote the producer of the show, but reviews by critics are opinion. The edit itself even uses the word "speculates", as if to underline that the statements have no basis in fact. The award that the show won was given a single sentence, while there are three entire paragraphs about controversy, quoting two critics' opinions at length multiple times. For what it's worth, these opinions seem to be at odds with the reviews given by users on multiple different platforms for review (4.7/5 on Crunchyroll's site, 8.1/10 on IMDB, 8/10 on MyAnimeList). Yes, we can verify that the reviewers did in fact write those words, but does that make their statements in and of themselves verifiable facts regarding the show and the audience? 173.71.171.58 (talk) 19:17, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
