Found this anime by chance and wasn’t expecting much out of it, just wanted to kill some time. Scrolled through anime recommendations and recent anime before chancing upon this. At first glance, the anime just seemed like an adventure anime like Grancrest Senki. The profile picture of Sirius here did not do justice to the anime itself. Not saying that the anime was an amazing masterpiece yet since I am only half way through the anime, however, I would say that in my case, I was bearing much expectations for this anime after looking at the picture. Therefore, I went to search up some images ... on the anime and I finally got to watching it after being swayed by the blue eyes of the main character.

Music wise, I would say it is not as memorable as those hits in other anime like Sword Art Online, Tokyo Ghoul and Your Lie in April (just to name a few), though it could grow on me if I gave it a few tries in the upcoming episodes I have not watched.

Halfway into the episodes and I would say I had the impression of this anime being a rip-off from Owari no Seraph based on the plot, just a little darker. Both have their own pros and cons, however, I liked how the confrontations were portrayed. It was more realistic in Sirius. I appreciated how the smaller numbers in the protagonist group and the fact that there was little bromance like how you can ship literally any two guys together in Owari no Seraph.

May I just say that the voice-acting was really on point? I liked the voice actor of Mikhail, as expected of the voice actor of Sting from Fairy Tail. Mikhail calling out Yuliy was heavenly and gave me chills (just my personal preference).

Another point to note is that I liked that the vampires were not portrayed as beautiful as that in Owari no Seraph, yet I felt that it was better than those in ONS like Ferid and Crowley.

It is definitely worth watching. I take interest in the vampire genre though there have not been many of such anime. To end off, I am anticipating more since I’m only halfway through but I think that there are much more surprises packed for us viewers.

Note: I do think that Alexei has a much more significant role although I may be mistaken. Additionally, I’m looking forward to how Yuliy and Mikhail’s story would unfold.

Overall: 7.5/10
