Synopsis

After the demise of the demon king, the resulting power vacuum has broken the balance of the world. Eager to claim this power for themselves, self-proclaimed demon kings from various worlds assemble in the New Principality of Lithia to fight for it. Among them, master swordsman Soujirou Yagyuu seeks to take this coveted position for himself. Joined by Tooi Kagizume no Yuno, a young girl he saved from an army of golems that destroyed her city, Soujirou enters Lithia to battle his way to the title.

At the same time, the leaders of the Aureatia Kingdom seek to destabilize Lithia by launching bandits after the convoys of merchandise transiting through the principality. Enraged, Imashime of Taren, the founder of Lithia and defector from Aureatia, sends vicious thief Kasasagi no Dakai to investigate the origin of these attacks. With war on the brink of eruption, no one can predict what influence the contenders for the demon king's throne will have on the coming conflict.

A slow burner. First a set-up, then the action. But oh, what action! And the worldbuilding is awesome, this is an ACTUAL fantasy.

Just be aware that the first half of the anime is about the set-up and you'll be good to enjoy one of the best fantasy anime I've watched!

Plot: 9/10 (multiple POWs and deeply intricate under the surface)

Characters: 10/10 (it's all about the characters. Not one of them is lame)

Pacing: 4/10 (I won't lie, I was about to drop it due to the super slow start I was unprepared for)

Execution: 10/10 (damn, it got me invested in the bond between a wivern and a ...

Mixed Feelings
what every anime season have in common, Isekai's. but what if I tell you that Ishura is one of the most unique and interesting Isekai's I ever watched, but why I did not rated it a 10/10, you may ask?
let's start with the positives:
- character designs: every single one of the characters, have a very good design that goes well with their morals, we have different races (like Human, Wyvern, Dragon and more...) but each of them look well.
- animation: studio Passione is one of the studios that I think have a lot of potential to become one of the best studios. the animation ...

“Ishura” is what happens when surface level writing meets a pretty solid idea.

This show is the perfect example of 2 things:
1. False advertising
2. Having lots of plot and almost no story at all.

Let’s start with the first point.

The first episode in any show is one of, and according to some, the most important. It has a simple, yet important function: it must aim to capture the audience's attention, establish characters, locations, set the tone for the rest of the series and, if the show will have an overarching plot, present the main goal for the main character. It’s a kind of a promise between the ...
