May 3 2010 05:27 AM OK before I completely forget about this anime that I finished last Friday, I'll add my 2 cents to this thread before I disappear.
The first half of this series was very boring, it has a slow build-up that raises a few questions and the revelations that proceed in the rest of the series are not exactly that great but rather cliched and predictable. However, I think I started enjoying this show after episode 13 or 14, I can't remember why but I just did.
The one thing I hated about this anime was ALL the girls fawning over Arawn, he may have been the demon lord but he's an over-1000 year old relic that is a resurrected undead but still all the girls just want to get into bed with him.
I think the only relationship I really liked was between Taliesin and Epona, they are a cute couple imo and its pretty much the first time I have approved of a loli to be in a proper relationship. The chemistry between the 2 is great and almost reminds me of the relationship btw Shinra and Celty of Durarara!! but I like ShinraxCelty couple better.
I was really happy that Taliesin was alive......I honestly thought he died.
Oh, Arthur, I started to enjoy his presence in the anime and damn was I hoping for Octavia to fall in love with him but then again she is nothing but a lesbian b*tch. I mean she cared for Lidia and pretty much loved her in yuri-fashion but in the end decides to slice her up in the episode 11 battle ending her life......to me that kinda sucked but I've heard that Lidia's death in the game is somewhat different in the PS3 version of the game.
Anyways, I really was gonna give this series a 6.5 but it gradually got better towards the end of the series and soit gets a rating of
7.5/10 from me.
