I came to watch the most notorious talker from seeing the PV's and with interest in adventure themed anime, as some do to get that sense of escapism. Like many other anime this season, and last, the series follows Noel who wants to become the worlds greatest seeker after his grandfather after tragedy strikes. Initially I wanted to root for Noel, however as episode after episode passed I really found myself watching a dark fantasy/power fantasy series with a really unlikable MC. Despite saying how the kingdom needs young faces to be the new generation of seekers, he ins incredibly selfish and self serving. The ... first 3 episodes are basically written as tutorials to showcase his abilities, and despite being the "weakest" character class he just dominates everyone by telling them to sit.

In the second episode he sells off his first love interest into slavery even knowing and ignoring her feelings for him, and in the 4th episode literally robs a little girl who idolized him after taking a quest and taking all their money. Later she gets murdered by the mob and he has the gal to say rest in peace as if he didn't know his actions would directly lead to something bad despite his knowledge of the underworld.

The art is pretty good, but the main character is kind of annoying. As for the plot it's definitely catered to those looking for something darker and edgy.

Where to start, the movie had good art, animation and was visually great with a decent soundtrack. However, thats where the positives end. The story had a strong believe in your friends type message, but the way the movie was ended felt sour considering the power of a certain magical item. The title and series lists Lucifer as the main in this movie but she gets very little screen time, instead we see oragon screaming at everyone and, unsurprisingly everyone ignoring oragon. There are some major plot holes but by the end it feels like they were just swept under the rug and the overall ... felt a bit lazy. The pacing was alright, the action scenes were good, but in between it felt very slow. Other titles in the Monster strike may have been better but this one I feel was a bit of a miss.
