Story (5/10): If you are looking for a detailed and in-depth plot, you aren't going to find it here. While the premise is interesting a few episodes in, the quality of the plot decreases near the end of the season. Within the last few episodes, they managed to add multiple plot twists and and plot holes that do not make much sense. The ending is strung together so poorly that I was extremely dissatisfied by both the romance plot and main story plot. Aside from the descending plot line, the main focus is on makeup (teaching about different types, brands, and ways to use makeup
...
to the viewers), so if you have no interest in makeup, you might not be interested in this story.
Art (5/10): While this is not the ugliest or greatest animation style I've seen, it is decent and does not detract from watching the show. Most character designs are actually pretty good in my opinion.
Sound (5/10): The opening and ending songs are quite nice to listen to. However, the sound effects are one of the most annoying aspects of the show. I was distracted by the sound effects many times while watching certain scenes.
Character (5/10): The characters are not good. Many are one dimensional or seemingly change personalities or feelings quickly, without reason. Some even act in ways that do not make any sense, but you would have to watch the show to understand this. Some characters are introduced, only to never be mentioned again, while some characters are randomly interjected into the story and play significant parts. (Also, the male leads fall in love with the character based on her makeup applying skills, which ultimately leads to not very interesting character development). The only character with some type of interesting development is Jack, so I partly continued watching to see his outcome.
Enjoyment (7/10): I enjoyed most of the episodes. I liked certain characters and mini plots in some episodes over other episodes. I thought the makeup aspect was also interesting. However, problems with plot, character development/personalities, and the unresolved ending decreased my enjoyment by a lot in the end.
Overall (6/10): If you have free time and don't want to watch a really intense show, I recommend watching SSZN. Because the first half of the season is definitely better than the latter half, I suggest trying a few episodes out before deciding to watch it all. If you don't like the first few episodes, I suggest stopping and watching something else.

(Might have spoilers)
This anime has some confusing things about it. First, I don't know, but there were no females in the entire show. Now, either there are no females in the universe they live in, or everybody is just gay. They use the words "sister, mother, girl, and woman" though, so that is confusing. And if there are just males, how do they reproduce. The other confusing part of the show is the main antagonist. I don't really understand the motive of the Aizawa scientist character. Apparently, he spents so many years trying to torture kids, so he can control and manipulate them however he
...
wants. He uses his plan on two specific children, the two other main characters. He spents so many years making elaborate an elaborate plan just trying to see if he can control Sora. I don't really know what happens to Aizawa at the end, but I think he was crazy or too serious about his work.
Other than the few confusing parts, there are some good and bad aspects of the show. First, if anyone read the summary and thought they were going to watch a highly-suspenseful, dramatic, and emotional shounen-ai, they were wrong. The anime is basically the good plot obscured by the character's daily lives. (Over half of the episodes were about the characters in their daily life.)I really liked all of the characters especially Honjou and the split personalities. So, each episode was enjoyable to watch, while the plot slowly revealed itself. There were some strange and major plot twists in the show, and thoses were enjoyable.
I thought the ending came too quickly. Everything was resolved really easily and that was somewhat dissapointing. (I was also sad over Yoru and Ran, but also somewhat happy about it. I believe Sora meeting with Yoru at the near ending was the saddest.) But overall, the ending was positive and happy.
I recommend this anime to all BL fans because it was pretty enjoyable overall. Even though there were some confusing aspects, the plot is good and the characters are likable. (There is even a game series of this show, so it might explain a little deeper and better than the anime.)

Zettai Bouei Leviathan is an enjoyable anime. Even though it has many flaws, it is a pretty decent anime because this was just based on an iphone game. The story is somewhat cliched because the idea of people coming together to try and save the world is not new. The plot line is not very good, but it is not the worst.(Three girls with different elements try to fight against lucasites that are trying to destroy the world.The main character, Leviathan, is trying to find her lost brother. Bahamut is struggling with family problems, and Jörmungandr is trying to protect her family.)
While watching the show,
...
I noticed that some characters actually became quite annoying. The main character, Leviathan, is very passive and does not really talk with much emotion. Bahamut acts spoiled, but that is not the problem with the character. She is sometimes annoying because she acts very selfishly. Despite all of this, the character designs are actually good.
Another small problem in the anime, when I watched it, was the animation for the dragons and lucasites. I believe that the anime would have turned out better if they did not change the animation for the dragons and lucasites. Because of that different animation, it looked as if the creatures were moving very awkwardly.
Overall, it was an okay anime. I have to say it was somewhat good because there is no actual manga or novel to base off of. So, I thought this was an enjoyable series, even with some of the flaws. The major positive thing about this anime is the character designs. I would recommend this series to people who want a light-hearted anime and to people who just want to enjoy a decent show. (this anime would be great for cosplay)

I actually don't watch much action anime because I never feel the need to continue watching them. Most action anime don't really attract my attention, but, for some strange reason, I was really into watching FMA. It is now my all time favorite anime and I can't put any other anime above it. I know that FMA:B rivals it and is definitely preferred by most people over the original, but I don't think that.
I love that it is slow paced and explains everything in a way that keeps you interested. It has less action, but the amount of emotion and dramatic parts really add
...
up. The whole series teaches many things throughout and the way the creators did it, was amazing. The characters really matched together because there were so many different personalities, and each character looked distinctively different. The soundtracks from FMA were also outstanding. (bratja sounds really emotional and beautiful) The plot is pretty good, but I'm not going to spoil that. There aren't many fillers but just enough to let the characters to develop and breathe. The ending was also fantastic. The creators were able to make a good and satisfying ending without taking the easy routes to end it.
Overall, it is just amazing, so I suggest watching this. There are so many more reasons to watch this, but just watch it and see how you like it.
