The story of Angel Beats is set in the afterlife, where a high school student named Otonashi suddenly wakes up and realizes he has died. Upon waking up, he finds himself in the middle of an intense battle between two strange girls. Once he realizes the strange predicament, one of the girls from the fight, Yuri, tells him she's allying against her rival, Tenshi.

We follow Otonashi's journey as he unravels the secrets of the afterlife and the mysterious aura around Tenshi. Otonashi refuses to believe Tenshi is evil and feels a strange attraction toward her. Despite his reservations, he joins Yuri and her team, the Shinda Sekai Sensen or the SSS.

Angel Beats presents a unique story with several twists throughout the series. While the series has darker themes, it transitions back and forth from light comedy without it looking forceful. The characters are diverse, and the story feels a little short and fast-paced but also has a feeling of urgency, making the ending memorable. Every episode will you keep on your toes.

With its themes of death, regrets, acceptance, and moving on, the series will take you on a rollercoaster ride, which will make you cry your heart out. If you're a new anime watcher, the series is the perfect gateway and will leave you wanting more content. Fans looking to watch the series can check it out on Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Netflix.

The chronological order of Angel Beats is its release order. Since there isn't a lot of content, the order of watching doesn't matter. Fans of the series were left wanting more when the series finally ended. Unfortunately, the story is complete, and we can confirm that a Season 2 will not be made.
