Angel Beats! is set in a high-school-like afterlife where teens who suffered in life are given a chance to work through their regrets before moving on. Otonashi, our MC, wakes up without memories and is pulled into the rebel group called the Afterlife Battlefront ( or SSS), which is a student militia led by Yuri that “rebels” against an unseen God, often clashing with the quiet and formidable student council president Kanade “Angel.” This is a brisk blend of slapstick raids, coupled with a couple of concert set-pieces by the in-story band Girls Dead Monster, followed up with gut-punch drama about purpose, grief, and letting go. In a nut shell this is aiming to tickle the funny bone while hitting them feels.
