I actually liked the anime. I didn't really pay attention to the BL, rather I was hoping for Neko x Shiro.

From what I see, people are looking way too much into it. Getting answers for everything is nice, but you rarely have an anime that leaves a fair amount to the audience's imagination.
As far as the plot goes, it was loose enough to maintain a storyline without turning into a pointless waste of time, which a lot of animes fail at and just end up turning into a Daily Life anime.

Well, it was still quite a good ride even if the show dragged out pointless crap in the beginning. I still enjoyed the show though it leaves a lot of unanswered questions and explanations behind every details that was shown throughout the run of the series. Not to mention the fanservice (Neko and Seri's Ass) and the concept of the plot.

The only thing about the series was the abundance of BL material in it. Well, it was somehow off and was pretty disturbing. I dunno on other people though if they find it very amusing or what.

The confirmation of a second season wasn't a surprise though. Their Concept is really good tbh, the only problem with this is their execution though they really made up for it in last couple of episodes but it could be somehow better.
This series does have the potential to be better and can have succeeding seasons as it progresses so see ya in Season 2.

BTW, the end song of the last episode was catchy. Is there a way where i can find it in full or at least half version? I've been searching it but can't find it anywhere.

I liked the story. I dig anime that have different factions going against each other. Project-K reminds me of Air Gear and Durarara!! quite a bit; in fact, Mikoto Suoh, the Red King, looks exactly like the Spitfire from Air Gear.


Parts of it was quite confusing, but the ending solves most of it tidily. The art quality started out great, but suffered quite a bit as the episodes went on. The fights at the beginning were animated fluidly, with a lot of creativity, especially with that guy with the skateboard. Later fights looked like frame-rates have dropped, and frames were repeated. The ending was a bit anti-climactic -- I was expecting an epic 3-way fight that didn't pan out. I think it was quite predictable that


All in all, I'd give this 6.5/10 for decent enjoyability, a fun story, and no characters that really pissed me off. And that's saying a lot considering there's a lot of anime with characters lately that really piss me off. It could've been better, but hell it could've been a lot worse, but it ended up being a little better than just okay...

tbh i was kind of worried because some episodes were a bit confusing, so i thought the last episode would end with a stupid cliffhanger or something like that.

but wow, this is one of my favorite episodes. a lot of feels, great animation, great fights, surprising plot twists. i'm surprisingly happy about this episode even though it was really sad. (i just have to think about the way anna screamed "mikoto" ;__;)

edit: and this announcement about the second season makes me really happy :3

well, the k project wiki says that he's deceased, but i don't really think so. they mentioned too often that he's the immortal king and i think it would be a bit too much if the red king, the colorless king AND the silver king died in one episode... just my thoughts.

Shit ! Last ep was a real tear jerker. made mr cry my eyeballs out cuz of it.
The Art of Shipping is no mere game. It can be small skirmishes to huge nation size wars.
Of course some will claim their ship is the BATTLESHIP but they all do. This is why battles occur because of factions fighting each other to justify their favourite ship.
And thus SHIP to SHIP combat occurs almost anytime even now.
Beware, Threading into the Shipping battlefield will be bloody.... What are you waiting for?

This series had such potential at the beginning but I'm honestly glad it's over for now. Basically all it was good for was pretty animation, eyecandy and BL fodder. I'm sure lots of people are happy to hear there'll be a second season but I'm endlessly frustrated 'cause I feel obligated to watch it.

let me guess, on 2nd season Shiro will go back to the original body (Adolf•K•Weissmann) because he is immortal king, maybe =/=

A rather poor ending to a show that had so much potential, and yet they wasted that gorgeous animation on crappy standalone episodes.
It was still a good watch, though it could have been much better.

Could have been better ending, without killing one of the best characters of the show. Hope at least sequel will feature Homra more. Still don't understand what Neko's purpose was in this show or why is she main character :/ I wonder what Suoh said to munakata before dying.

Bad show was bad.

Seriously, I've never seen such a beautiful animation budget squandered on such a big pile of crap. No character development, a Swiss cheese plot, a lackluster ending, a narrative that flows like a river of glue.

This series outside of it's production budget had NOTHING going for it.

Why so much hate?
I thought this turned out awesome (than again I also thought Guilty Crown was awesome and this was kinda similar to it in turns of delivery LOL)


I am going to assume the "Silver King" didn't die since, When Mikoto died their "red powers" floated up in the sky but Neko and Kuro's newly endowed "Silver powers" didn't

So I'm sure the Silver King's soul went back into his real body and the Colorless King's sword is what really faded away in the sky.

Can't wait to see em back in season 2, hopefully :)

I love the characters. Maybe could be better if it's longer, for character development and better story telling. It could be intentional, from the producer's side.

This anime was quite good, but not amazing. It had enjoyable action, ok characters, a pretty interesting plot. Although I never really felt attached to any except Shiro and maybe some of his friends.

The ending was ok. I had expected Mikoto to die for ages, since his king's sword was almost broken for so long. Not bothered that he died. Would have traded his screen time for more interaction between the colourless king and Shiro.

Shiro's death was kind of sad but not all that surprising. That said, I doubt he is dead, as they emphasised the fact he was the immortal king at the end.

If there is a season 2, bring back Shiro or tbh not interested xD.

Hope 2nd season clears up these points:
Why exactly was Suoh gonna die? I know that they said that his Weissman level was in a critical level but why exactly?

What exactly is neko? They didnt really explain that other than saying that shes a wild ????(forgot the name)

Anyways the ending was really anticlimatic as Shiro just died like that along with the colorless king. Shit move killing the fav king Suoh. Even the red clansmen lost their powers. So 3 kings died just because that colorless king wanted power? Kinda sad.

Cant wait to see how 2nd season will present itself. 7/10 for season 1

The reason his Weissman level was critical was because he used he's powers too carelessly all the time

and neko is a strain. someone who has powers without serving a king (unlike HOMRA, who all have their powers because Mikoto "gave" it to them, or because they serve him)

With 2 dead kings and 2 more kings who are yet to be revealed, I wonder how will they be able to proceed with season 2. Will there be a new main character, or will Shiro be revived (since Shiro mentions that he is an immortal king)?

Decent anime, shit ending. How are they going to pull off a second season with Shiro and Mikoto dead? It has to be a prequel or something. Oh well, just gonna have to wait and see.


startrash said:
It's not sure that Mikoto really died since Anna said "Mikoto, your red is still warm.." after the credits, and Shiro said himself that he is immortal, so I think the sequel will be really interesting :3 cant wait!


"Mikoto, your red is still warm" could be interpreted in so many ways. She could mean that his warmth lives on in the members of HOMRA for example. That and it seems that once a person's dead in the K universe they stay dead too, as it's supposed to be.

Really cool soundtrack at the end of the episode

As a series I enjoyed it moderately, the one criticism that arches over it as a whole is that K was poorly paced/ tried to tell too big of a story in a 1 cour series. It tried to world build and tell a plot instead of focusing on one which caused some episodes to slow down to a standstill. With the second season announcement hopefully Gora/Gohands learned from the 1st and has a better idea of what to do next.

The slow pacing normally would've made me dread watching it every week but thanks to the excellent visuals/soundtrack I was able to plow through it. Episode 1 in particular had some imaginitve camera angles with the low skateboard shot then after that the show had conistent visuals while not on part with the 1(which most likely had a bigger budget) was a lot better than some other shows this season.

I feel bad for it, but I laughed through this whole episode. I feel like if K had made me care for the characters and plot more at the beginning of the anime, then I would have taken this episode more seriously.

Nonetheless, it was an entertaining watch and I look forward to the second season.

This series started really slow but in the end I thought this anime was quite decent. Because of the slow start, I got the feeling that the ending and the real story were quite rushed. I would've liked that this arc was a little longer so I could learn more about the characters and the setting of this show. We already lost three of the four kings and two kings remain unknown. I'm glad that there is a second season and I hope that most of the current characters will be in there. I think Shiro will most likely return, because he is Immortal, at least he said he was.

All in all I give this season a 7. The beginning was slow and the ending quite rushed. We didn't get to know alot about the setting and the world in this show, but nevertheless I enjoyed this series and I hope that the second season will reveal more about the setting in this show.

I'm not sure how i feel about this. I enjoyed wacthing it, but the entire time i was kinda brain dead and not really connected to anything that happened. It was sad, but....i don't feel anything. It was a nice final episode, but overall this series was just pure entertainment for me.
7/10

Hopefully the second season is more consistent with the characters and whatnot. I will definitely watch it.
