Story: The story is a loveless, generic, repetitive mess. It's completely constructed and inauthentic. There's even a filler episode.
Characters: The Characters are blunt and emotionless. Sometimes they have wrong or no reactions to they're situation, which there are never reflecting or even think about. The relationships between the Characters are completely constructed and inauthentic too. The side characters are boring and do have no personality neither. Their introductions are horrible. (Koyori isn't even a Character!) Art-style: To his Credit: It has a own and remarkable art style! ...a pity that is so bad: The lighting is awkward and and the textures are low-resoluted and sometimes without shaders. The mixture between 2D-and 3D-textures is a bad idea too, because they are sometimes not synchronous (tracking shots). The coloring isn't good too: There are pointless sparkles and everything looks like clean and Chrome or clean chrome.
Music: lower average.
Setting: boring and unintelligent: through it's construction it can never be solved and so it's not possible to achieve a major plot point (like in Mirai Nikki). That's making it pointless!
The Anime is a incoherent and lazy mess. It's boring and adds noting new to the Anime market. It seems like the makers didn't even try! There's little to no effort put in this...thing. And that's perceptible IN EVERY FRAME! If you want to tell a story, you must have a story to tell! It makes so many, so elementary mistakes, that i just feel betrayed. It's like watching a mirror that is punching one in the face! Not even the title is wright: It's called "Hand Shakers" but there are HOLDING hands. Who had that idea? All in all it's a waste of time and money and it pays no respect to the audience and is just in every way insulting. The story is bad, the characters are boring and the art style is beyond awkward.
