YMMV / Call of the Night

Go To

  • Awesome Art: The anime adaptation is gorgeous. With vibrant purples and blues bringing the scenes of hitting the town at night to beautiful life.
  • Awesome Music:
    • The aptly named "Yofukashi no Uta" is all about the joy of the night and how liberating it is. The manga is actually named for the song, with Kotoyama asking the band Creepy Nuts for permission to do so; when the anime adaptation arrived, the band put out a new song - Daten - to be used as the opening.
    • The entire soundtrack is quite chill, perfect as study music.
  • Diagnosed by the Audience: There is a subtext that Kou, and Akira to an extent, have some kind of psychological disorder that results in difficulties in feeling or expressing emotions, emotional detachment in general, anhedonia, and of course their heavy insomniac tendencies. Midori, at one point, even outright suggests that Kou is mentally ill, pointing to his unhealthy sleep habits and disengagement from school. None of this is explicitly stated, leaving much of this aspect up to the audience's interpretation.
