Synopsis

Spontaneous Human Combustion: a chaotic phenomenon that has plagued humanity for years, randomly transforming ordinary people into flaming, violent creatures known as Infernals. While Infernals make up the first-generation accounts of Human Combustion, the second and third generations became known as pyrokinetics—people gifted with the ability to manipulate and control their flames while remaining human. To combat the Infernal threat and discover the cause, the Tokyo Armed Forces, Fire Defense Agency, and Holy Church of Sol produced their answer: the Special Fire Force.

Young and eager third-generation pyrokinetic Shinra Kusakabe, nicknamed Devil's Footprints for his explosive ability to ignite his feet at will, becomes a member of the lively Special Fire Force Company 8. Upholding the brigade's duty to extinguish the blazing Infernals and lay their souls to rest, Shinra is determined to become a hero who will save the lives of those threatened by the flame terror.

However, this is not the hero's game Shinra imagined. The Fire Force is a fractured mess of feuding brigades, abnormal Infernal sightings are increasing all over Tokyo, and a shadowy group is claiming to have answers to the strange fire that caused the death of Shinra's family 12 years ago. Faced with many obstacles within and outside the Fire Force, Shinra fights to uncover the truth behind the burning mysteries that have kept him in the dark.

Overhated...

I've definitely heard bad things about this anime (specifically abt the fan service) but honestly as i watched it i didn't think the fan service was nearly as bad people stated (+ you could always fast forward a few seconds if you're bothered by it) anyways i'll break this anime down below : D

So first of all the plot isn't anything crazy but from what i've seen it is a pretty interesting concept, i mean basically fire fighters but with powers instead how cool is that xD. In short there is multiple fire force companies (1-8th) each doing their thing fighting people that suddenly started ...

Mixed Feelings
Fire Force is a show with an amazing concept that is held back to an embarrassing degree due to many factors. As a huge fan of Atsushi Ohkubo's previous work, Soul Eater, I came into this expecting something of similar quality, but at the end, I was left with a sense of mediocrity. While the show has some cool concepts and fantastic fight scenes, this show has mediocre to terrible characters, strange directing decisions, and a unimpressive story, all of which I will cover,

Story: 6/10

The overarching plot of the story revolves around the mysterious nature and nature of the Infernals, as well as those who ...

TLDR: Not worth watching, unless you like fighting anime

This review will be based on seasons 1 and 2 as both seasons are pretty much the same at the time of 31/08/2024

Introduction
Set in a world where at all times there will be cases where a normal human being will be infected with a flame virus that causes them to turn into monsters. A military force that mainly consists of fire force users is established to eliminate the threat of the monsters.

Characters 3/10
So the character here is more like what the fuck because look, ok you have this priest girl that basically does nothing, but pray to ...
