As of Episode 4 i would recommend anyone ever slightly interested to go read the first light Novel. There is a lot of character and relationship building missing. Arifureta is a great Isekai the anime adaptation however is a real letdown and is leaving a lot of the finer details that make the light novels great out, at least as of episode 4.

The art so far is really good other than the CGI monsters that stick out like a sore thumb. The story is great just not the execution of it. The sound effects and stuff are all top notch. However character progression and relationship ... building fell of the cliff with the mc and died at the bottom of the pit. Overall i rate it a 6 so far. May improve over the next episodes if they make the relationships between the character have some sort of actual on screen progression.

First of all i would like to say that Titania is in desperate need of either a sequel or a reboot.

Story: Titania is an anime that follows many similarities with others within it genre of a small group or nation going up against the big bad rulers of the universe. The story starts off introducing the main character and a current overview of the universe. As the story progresses that is a point in time where it stagnates and not much story wise happens. During the stagnant part of the show we get a lot of unnecessary character development instead of a progression of ... the story. The main blunder story wise however is the main reason this show has lower ratings that is could have. The show ends at a point where you would expect to see a second season. If i was to compare this show with a standard 12 episode show the entire 26 would likely cover 4-6 of a 12 episode series. The story is stretched out so that what i would call Act 1 takes up all 26 episode. With the progress of this story i would expect to have a total of 3 Acts which means 3 season but we do not. This make you want to know more however this is no way of getting a conclusion to the story which is left wide open leaving a feeling of satisfactions and uncertainty of what would of happened next.

Art: The art is well done and should be praised for its creation. The arts reflects that of the Mecha golden age back in the 80 while also looking new and modern enough that it doesn't put off those who aren't as fond of the older art. For a show produced release in 2008 it is truly great.

Sound: The sound is neither good nor bad. The sound effects are average and there isn't much of a variation is sound of similar items like different types of weapons. The Voice acting however makes up for this with strong performances from both the main and supporting cast.

Character: The character were well thought out and didn't have much repetition within the show however they are the same character that you see in every show like this. The smart one, the ambitious one, the hourable warrior, the by the books guy and the guy that get mad at everything. These are not new however it can't be held against them as it worked well with the story.

Enjoyment: Overall i enjoyed this anime greatly however the abrupt and sudden ending did lower it and put a downer on the seemingly large push in the story. The music was good and the plot was strong and well written although better if there were sequels.

Overall: i recommend giving it a watch, you will be left with an unfinished story but you will however get great enjoyment watching through the 26 episode of Tytania.

This is my First time writing a Review for a manga so im gonna make it straight to the point. Claymore is an amazing piece of Art the manages to cover many story arks. There are many comparisons that could be made but nothing to stop it from being called Original.

Story:
The Story starts out with a Female Warrior (Claymore), just doing her job to defeat the arch enemy of Humanity. In the start we follow her through her daily life of doing her job and her interactions with those around her. The story then brakes off into 2. The story was kept fresh but true ... to its own origins are it pressed on into the later chapter and kept me wondering what was going to happen next as i delved into the next chapter anxious for more.

Art: The Art in Claymore is well done with using low levels of detail when necessary and extremely detailed at other times along with average levels of detail in between. The only flaw i have with the Art lies with character design as many of the Claymore's look very alike and were sometimes mistakenly of one or the other if you were paying full attention to detail. As there are many character with repeating appearances it can be forgiven for this however.

Character: The Characters in Claymore were well done in terms of individuality, each one had their own goals and reasoning behind what they do how how they go about doing them while also maintaining a connection with the rest of the cast.

Enjoyment: I highly enjoyed reading Claymore, much more than i expected as i bought it out of fear of it becoming unavailible in the near future. After ever volume i was eager to read the next and cursing my eyes for falling closed due to the lack of sleep.

Overall: Overall i would highly recommend this manga for anyone who enjoys any of these listed Genres: battle/fighting, horror, romance, monster, action, adventure. If you happen to see it in the store i highly recommend you get yourself a copy.

I personally enjoyed it greatly. It gets you thinking about what it would be like to live like Murasaki as well as being able to relate to what was going in terms to what society (family, tradition Etc) views as right compared to what is actually right. Its a very heartwarming story that gets you thinking. If you want something which really makes your heart tingle then this anime is for you. The fact that the two main characters are so similar yet so different makes it all the more enjoyable. This anime is highly under rated and deserves to be higher on both the ... popular and top rated anime list. It has everything someone would want if they don't know what to watch. Something that isn't long and is extemely enjoyable. I highly sugest you watch this anime even if my review may make it look bad. Im not that good at writing :( The older looking animation may put some people off as the year it was made has many other anime with greatly superior animation quality however i think that the older looking animation adds to how great this is. I would recommend it for both veterans as well a newer anime watchers however if you are a veteran you MUST WATCH this anime if you are to call yourself a veteren. I wouldn't say no to anothe season of this anime although there will never be one it would have to be in the same art style. I wanted to see if i could get the novels for it so i can continue the story. I anyone knows where i can find them in english i will give you a cookie.
