Critical Reception

What critics are saying

Score 52 /100

Critical reception for the Japanese mystery series Re:Mind is distinctly divided, with reviewers praising its intriguing central hook while criticizing its overall execution. Positive reviews highlight the show's unsettling locked-room atmosphere, fast-paced episodes, and compelling central secrets, noting that the bloodless drama manages to keep viewers hooked as past transgressions are slowly revealed.

Conversely, negative critiques point to shaky acting and melodramatic direction, with some reviewers describing the performances as overly dramatic rather than subtly creepy. The series finale also proved to be a major point of frustration, as multiple critics felt short-changed by a resolution that left numerous plot threads and character fates unresolved.

“hard not to become deeply involved in the murky drama”

“As far as mysteries go, Re:Mind is not bad, but it is not the best either.”

“the show fails spectacularly in almost every other area, ending with a myriad of unanswered questions and numerous plot threads left unresolved”

“the show really focuses on a strong cast, on secrets, and on giving the viewer a slightly unsettled, disturbed feeling, and it does really well in all those departments.”
