I saw good reviews and thought this series was exactly what I was looking for. An RPG style sword and magic adventure. While it has action and a good plat/storyline.... the characters are boring and repetitive. The episodes are always broken up by long and needlessly drawn out conversations. Practically a visual novel.
The art style is pretty good, the outfits and landscapes looked great. Fight scenes were nice and bloody. However the background music was very repetitive throughout the series, the same three or four tunes that were straight out of a 1995 RPG game. Almost as annoying as the dialogue. The word 'Mamoru'
...
is permanently scribed into my brain. "This guy killed my dad so I have to kill him! ah but wait, he's my friend! I totally forgive you now that I think about it, you're not such a bad guy." Give me a break. I honestly got so annoyed listening to these characters talking that I skimmed through the last 5 episodes just to see how it ends. Which was typical and boring.
Not such a bad series, but 26 episodes is far too much for the content within it. If you're into the hearing 'blah blah blah protect my friends' and 'blah blah sacrifice myself blah blah' over and over, dive right in.
