Why are people ignoring Hiroyuki's lack of great soundtrack for this anime?
I haven't heard a memorable one yet (The one in the first episode was good, but it stopped playing).

His recent works, Xenoblade X and Nanatsu no Taizai has fantastic OST. Especially Nanatsu no Taizai....


maybe they are reserving it for the upcoming episodes left? Or maybe in the season 2 since it will dealt for more heavy action than this first cour?

Sawano is probably keeping all the good soundtracks for snk season 2. He's probably priotizing.

In other word, he can only make 1 type of soundtrack, all the same for any kind of anime? Or you mean that he can't make good soundtracks if he steps out of his comfort zone?

Let me rephrase that. It just means he's not putting as much effort in this series compare to the other series he has worked on before.

This series doesn't take him out of his comfort zone since its a action anime. I would like to see how he would do if he was to make soundtracks for a non action series though. But I'm sure he would do good since some soundtracks for snk could go with some non action anime series.

The series so far has barely provided any opportunities for any soundtrack to feature prominently anyways.

In any case, he can do good non-action music even within action shows.



He's just not doing it in this show; the ending theme is still cool though.

Well, i do think that Sawano as a professional is not a person who just because he is not into a show will actually not leave his comfort zone and just let it be. I noticed that because of his good composition in the opening and ending song.

Well, let just see, there are still many episodes left if we include the 2nd cour. Sawano not doing any sound track here doesn't mean he is not prioritizing this show. That is just my own opinion ^_^

Yet we have not with the players and with the dialogue, including contexts. But I want to clarify that Shinoa is excluded from the discourse. Moving on to the plot, I see an interesting development, the final episode of it is addictive. Narratively, I liked the second part, both as comedy as development of the story in terms serious. Another point where I do not see positive developments, is the graphics, in terms of designs and animations; we are still far if we compare them to the most interesting series of the season today. Nothing to say instead for the sets and for the soundtrack.
The character of Yuu, I liked only at the end, where he put aside the talk stupid and proved decisive in the battle with the vampires. I hope to continue on that road, its growth character.

What patience? If we need to wait half of the show for things to get mediocre from laughably bad, then it's not that good of the show and of course, consequently, it will get criticism.

I sort of liked how the action wasn't all retarded, but then they just had to make the fucking car explode. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
Also, usually people don't talk in the middle of a fight for 42 seconds.
Of course, Shinoa saved the day. Best girl always best.
Besides that, slightly meh.

Great episode with a decent amount of action.

I wish they showed us the whole extermination and not just the beginning, but I guess they were pressed for time space considering it only has 4 episodes left...

2nd season, better not let us down.

That car scene where Yuichiro crashed into a lamp post had me in stitches, literally. I wasn't expecting for there to be some light-hearted comedy after action.

I wonder when Mika and Yui will meet, and their reaction to their reunion.

Much loves in the female vampires from me, but I still don't like them... somewhat.

Shinoa was cute in the truck. She can be cute when she 'tries'.

There wasn't much action this episode. They skipped the first fight and dodged the one after that one. The actual actions scenes leading to the first fight was rather budget and they could've done better. Because of that, I expect greater fights in the future.

for an action serie to me it doesn't seems to be focusing very much on the action, it seems more focused on the talking and story building, where the action is just an excuse to introduce more story elements, not good by itself
and expecially in the first part, the "casual" music tracks were pretty lacking and uninspired or just misplaced

Which is sad, because the story is complete shit. The dialog is generic and dumb. I at least hoped for some good fights and sound tracks, but we didn't even get that.

This anime is a drag. It literally fails in every area possible.

I thought at the end for a sec that they were already gonna be Killing some Nobles.
But NOPE that Noble buggered off while subsequently pissing off the entire team.

Shinoa still manages to make me smile (that damnable short joke xD)
Was a bit upset they skipped the last bit of that fight with the vampire group in the main city (idk why the end of it was skipped)

Mitsuba was too pathetic as a leader, I definitely don't want to see that again. Yuu's got moves and I'm really glad he's not just talk, the fight in the first half however could've been a lot better. I don't really get why that vampire took his sweet time crushing her neck :/

The second half was a little better, the nobles seem strong which is great since all their opponents were pathetic. I hope there will be more Kimizuki action next time.

All in all definitely better than last time.

Wow this episode was reeeeeeeally boring. They go on a seemingly difficult mission to hunt vampires, but of course Yuu runs in without thinking yet kills them super easily because he's so powerful. Blonde girl is super tsundere. Character interactions the same as always, flat and vapid. Action was mediocre at best. Some failed attempts to be comedic. I cannot see the appeal to this show...

Owari No Seraph Ep 8

OP: Translated again, yay!

The vampires outnumber them 7 to 5. Wow, I feel sorry for the vampires! :P

Humans that let vampires feed on them for protection against the monsters. Sad.

"How does it feel to be killed by livestock? Burn in hell" You fucking go Yu!

Hey main characters best friend. Can you do something besides giggle nervously? Seriously!

BTW, dear god are you stupid vampires. You used the girl as bait, but the squad wouldn't have even saved her if it weren't for Yu.

Wow, the Tsundere almost turned over already. Well to be fair, there's only 4 episodes left.

14 minutes: OK, I knwo that you're trying to create hyjink scenes here, but really it's not funny.

Wow, did the main characters best friends voice actor quit, and do they just keep playing his nervous laugh to give us some continuity?

We need teamwork, because the main character being overpowered as hell needs to protect the group that might as well be holding him back.

Oh my god, the main characters best friend spoke! He had a whole one line!

Damn, now I just wanna finish the series. Ah well.

ED: Translated too! Fuck yeah!

Note to self: Go with project-gxs!

So far the series is a good 7 for me unless if something really messed up happens. As long as the second season doesn't end up like Aldnoah.Zero (bad story but good OSTs) then I'm happy.

Dumb comment is dumb.

Calling critiques of this show haters is a sweeping generalization. If anything, they're VERY PATIENT because they're still watching the show despite it being slower than Nicki Minaj's brain development. Owari no Seraph isn't perfect. Die-hard fans would simply overlook its regurgitated innuendos and call it perfection. Even I have things I dislike about my favorite series and can learn to critique it. It's natural to nitpick an episode of any series. Each episode cannot be "OMG, sooo farking amazing! Yuu-sama is so saiko! Emergush!" because no one is that fucking stupid, then again I could be severely wrong.

The fight scenes are horrible. It's like a terrible amalgamation of Ao no Exorcist and Shingeki no Kyoujin. Yuu is like a hybrid between Eren Jaeger and Okumura Rin while megane-kun is like Shima but more of an asshole.

Yuu is such a Marty/Gary Stu. He can easily chop down vampires and simply saves his leader who now has a crush on him because for some unfathomable reason, I don't understand why someone like her even became squad leader. For fuck's sake. You can practically predict everything that's going to happen.

Still, I'm willing to see what happens because I'm really interested in Mikaela and other future characters that may be introduced later on.

Dude, calm down! Yuu isn't a Gary Stu. They simply are fighting lower level vampires. If he's fighting against noble vampires, he would got his ass owned. Also, a Gary Stu is a character who's too perfect, like Tatsuya Shiba. Yuu started the series as an antisocial idiot, but he got better as the series progress.

If there's anyone stupid, it would be you because you can't accept the fact that this series has fans. "WHY WOULD ANYONE LIEK DIS SHIT ITS SUU TERRIBLE!!!1 ANYONE WULIEK DIS R iDUTS!!!1" Haters are worse than fans, really.

Surprisingly was very bad, it was full of cliches, the action lacked energy and the comedy scenes were 100% out of place. The first half was abysmal, the second was a little better though.

This is anime is aggravating the hell out of me on some real shit. Yu is just doing whatever the fuck he wants without taking consideration for his teammates and he is putting their lives at risk because of his dumbass actions. And there really not doing shit even when they have their weapons, what's the point of them even having them if they can't fight seriously and together?! Shinoa is the squad leader and she doesn't even manage the group properly or even tell them to get their shit together so they can do what they are supposed to do. Shinoa and that blonde girl are the ones getting saved by yu when they have more experience which doesn't even make no damn sense. The guy with pink hair needs to sit the fuck down talking bout how he's stronger then yu when he isn't even doing shit to help anybody. And why the hell would they send all them out in the field when they don't even understand the concept of how they need to work together in order to survive and defeat the vampires. Their lieutenant is dumb as hell fr for doing that shit knowing how they are.

What stood out the most to me in this episode is that we get a glimpse of what looks like Shinoa's power. We haven't seen her really go all out yet so I was expecting her to be the ace, or at least dumb strong, but she seems to be around the same level as everyone else since Yu was able to save her life.

Man it looks like the royals are just in a different league.
