Mysterious, intriguing and beautiful setting. A very original story about a Faustian contract between a demon butler and
a young earl. Great start, nasty end. As the Chinese idiom goes, "the head of a tiger and the tail of a
snake". The plot got very lame starting from the middle part of season one. It seemed wonderful to me before. But
after I started on the manga, I realised how badly I had been fooled. Season 2 is a bit better. I like and sympathise for Alois Trancy, though he is obviously psycho. As for Claude Faustus the new butler... I don't know. He's just weird. But the ending is the most disappointing and ludicrous I've ever seen. The artwork is brilliant, especially the backgrounds and the clothes, but the characters have rather unnatural movements. To put it simply, the anime has downgraded the manga. | ||

7.00 (above average) | Hilarious. The way Death the Kid holds his double guns certainly brings a new definition to the word "COOL". Original idea of weapons being people. Though the plot starts getting screwed up by the end. Not much of a moral lesson, but entertaining enough. Still, the only thing that got me finish the whole series was Death the Kid. | ||

7.00 (above average) | Like everyone, at first I was a bit troubled by the scriptwriter's idea of making a chubby, spineless boy the protagonist of the story. It's not like I have anything against fat people, but it's highly unusual (and rather unwise) for such thing to happen coz anime is all about making characters attractive. But gradually Haru starts growing on me and I get more sucked into the story and I suddenly realised I've got over his appearance. The show has exceeded my expectations, and things start picking up when Silver Crow sprouts wings. I see well-handled character development and smart battle tactics. But then it starts to get a bit repetitive and boring. | ||

I was actually starting to get bored of all those quasi-scary-but-ends-up-it's-nothing tricks when all of a sudden
the plot took a steep turn and started to get serious starting from episode 7. Before that, the beautiful artwork and
the cute Yuuko-san barely managed to keep me watching the show, but the plot twist has renewed my interest and got me
through the entire thing. I wouldn't say the anime is BAD, but it's not impressive either. The romance between Teichi and Yuuko is nice, but towards the end it's kinda cliched and I got kinda sick of it. Still, I really love the ED. | ||

The art is really unique and that's sort of the reason why I started on this manga. The whole thing about making pacts with demons isn't exactly new so the first few chapters are a bit boring, but the mystery around the protagonist keeps me reading. Then recently there is a breakthrough and part of his past is finally revealed so it seems to be getting better. I think I'll stick to it. | ||

Fair on the whole. Nice message about war and peace. The artwork bugs me a little. Oh the Gundams are beautiful. But the people look weird... And there are so many repeated scenes!!! .V. The story is great, but does not make sense at some points. And after watching the entire thing I still have no idea what exactly the seed is -v- And I kinda hate Kira. Whiny brat that becomes a God ._. Still, it's quite angsty and touching (maybe too angsty), and the mobile suits are really cool. | ||

Hilarious. But pointless. I used to love it when I was a kid. | ||

I've got a friend who is CRAZY about this anime. I saw her drawing Enma Ai on her sketchbook and asked her about
the beautiful and expressionless doll-like girl and she started gushing about the anime so I decided to give it a try. I
persisted for 13 episodes and I finally gave up. The idea is really original and creative. I like how the story does not really judge vengeance but merely points out the cost of it. It also shows that sometimes life is just so cruel that it gives people no choice but to resort to vengeance. The art is great, but episodic shows never score well from me coz I look for plot development, which of course, cannot be found in episodic shows. So after 13 episodes, I couldn't stand the boredom and stopped watching. | ||

La Storia della Arcana Famiglia Seen: completely Last Updated: Sep 22, 2012 |
4.75 (moderate) | I was initially attracted by the cast, the lovely art and the interesting reference to the Tarot deck. Turns out to be a generic reverse harem story with a trivial plot and a preposterous ending. I guess I shouldn't have expected that much from an otome game. | ||

I absolutely adore "Alice in Wonderland", so I had high expectations for this series, but I was sorely
disappointed. I can't get a hang of what kind of person Alice is in the anime. She looks cute, but personality-wise, she's B-L-A-N-D. She doesn't show much emotion other than annoyance when around Peter White and uneasiness around Blood Dupre. And the show is basically about her being pushed around all the guys (yeah even the Queen of Hearts is a guy -,-) in Heart no Kuni, which is like, B-O-R-I-N-G. In a nutshell, Heart no Kuni no Alice is just a typical shoujou series with lots of glamour and zero substance. | ||

3.75 (below average) | The art is gorgeous, but that's far from enough to make me forgive the anime's numerous shortcomings.The plot is unbelievably thin and weak for such a compelling setting. It's really a great pity. The characterisation isn't convincing either. Emiya Shirou bugs me so much that I want to throttle him even at the risk of ridding the story of its protagonist. But seriously, the story would have been better without that loser. I really wanted to flip the table over when Saber fell for him. The romance doesn't remotely make sense, and this sentiment became even more justified after I finished watching Fate/Zero and had a deeper understanding of Saber's character. I heard Emiya Shirou wasn't this unbearable in the VN, so I can only assume the directing and scriptwriting are the biggest failures of the anime. But I also find characters like Matou Shinji and the "tiger teacher" completely ludicrous, redundant and pointless. So all in all, it's basically a whole load of visually-attractive crap which is only worth watching coz it's the predecessor and sequel to Fate/Zero. | ||

3.00 (poor) | The story seemed interesting at first, but in the end, it turned out to be a rather immature anime with insufficient characterisation, thin plot and an unresolved ending. It would have made a great anime for little kids if the princess didn't always splash blood onto herself -,- | ||

Stupid plot. All the males in the story are all pedophiles. The girls take 5 minutes to morph into battle form in every episode. And the protagonist uses a pink, fluffy BELL as a weapon. For Christ's sake. If I were the villain, the show would be over in the first episode. | ||

Basically I just hate any story that has a masochistic girl as protagonist or a plot revolving around a cheesy love
triangle. And VK happens to have BOTH. It's almost like the Japanese equivalent of Twilight. I heard my classmates talking enthusiastically about VK, so I decided to try it out. I regretted it. | ||
