That fight! The fluid animation there! Why can’t we have more fights like this not just in this series but in others as well? Great work there guys. This had to be one of the more intriguing puzzles to solve for a Nanana treasure than we’ve had previously. Let alone dangerous too with those spikes. Ouch!
This was however cut short with Ikusaba showing up, ruining everything. So the villain was introduced a few episodes ago, and last time he had a lot of development here. This all looks to be the final setting of the show, but what went wrong here? The animation was awesome as usual, but the music they chose here was off. That is something Keigo Hoashi hasn’t perfected. He composed the music for Dusk Maiden and still I had that same feeling I had with this. Dusk Maiden was a terrible series that Silver Link horribly tried to copy off SHAFT. I do not recommend picking that series up.
The music felt a bit understated for the upcoming fight here. What a fight it was! That is something I will give credit to A-1 Pictures here. They’ve done a tremendous job with this show in terms of animation direction, it’s just everything in between that feels lacking. So we’ve arrived at a cliffhanger with the final episode, and there are a ton of questions left to be answered all of which has been poorly executed throughout this show.
OVERALL IMPRESSION: 5/10
