Saihate no Paladin

Born into a new world after a life of stagnancy, Will awakens to the faces of a skeleton, a ghost, and a mummy. Living in the ruins of a city long fallen, the three raise Will as their own. The skeleton— Blood—teaches him to fight; the ghost—Gus—teaches him magic; and the mummy—Mary—teaches him religion and responsibility. Most importantly, they all teach him love.

As Will grows up and learns about the world he was born into, he prepares for the day when he must finally set out on his own. For Will, this journey includes a lifelong promise. At their coming-of-age, every adult is required to swear an oath to the god of their choice, with the strength of the pledge affecting the degree of their sworn god's blessing.

With his departure approaching, Will must prepare to accept the truth of his undead guardians and embark into a world that even they don't know the state of. Will discovers, however, that every oath must be fulfilled, one way or another.

Such a strong first few episodes!
The first episodes are a masterpiece for me, unfortunately the following episodes get much weaker, but should still be a good watch for most!
Maybe next season will push it even further *hope*.
I felt that each character had a background and reacted accordingly, each with their own style.
The animation was also very strong in the first few episodes, suggesting a great opus.

It is really heartbreaking that the high quality of the first episodes not only could not be kept up, but for me the anime dropped to a below average level...
Also the pacing was somehow perfect in the beginning, but ... after that it felt wrong... ....

All in all a mixed bag, but I still liked it and hope for the best!

Mixed Feelings

This anime is kind of disappointing in my mind. The beginning arc is great. The action is pretty good, the art work is very good, and I like the pacing and story. The characters are good as well! Then after that it just feels generic for the most part. The action is fine, but not as good. The artwork is still solid, but the overall story and characters just get a lot less interesting. There are some attempts to have some character growth, but it just feels kind of empty. I think it would have hit harder if I had continued to care, but I ... just didn't. The soundtrack is fine, but pretty generic. The op grew on me, but doesn't really fit the anime too well. Same problem with the ed, but it's also kind of generic. This show had a lot going for it, but just failed to continue to be interesting after shifting to the second arc. 6.30/10 Dubbed

Not Recommended

I don't think this anime is recommended because of many factors and I might stop watching it because it's too boring.

1. I don't see clearly his purpose.
2. Learn from many books but still look very stupid, this is the saddest thing about this anime.
3. Wasting too much time on things that are less important.
4. A prosperous kingdom that is large enough but ignores the small villages around it.
5. The horrors of demons or beasts that smother civilization are not very clear.

Will (Main Charater) make me surprised when he gets insulted but there is no anger or feeling to defend himself. Looks stupid even though he ... has read many books and learned from a wizard who is quite smart.

The story is too long-winded and always discusses unimportant things to spend the duration so it looks boring.
The main character has no clear goal. He is strong but too stupid.
Whitesails had a fairly dense civilization but couldn't save the small village that was around it.
