I wasn't expecting a lot from this series, and got roughly that.
Story: Simple. Select people have the power to fight off the monsters produced by an omnipotent evil being, who just is. In comes the heroine who has the power to completely vanquish said evil. Oooh. Never saw that coming. Adventuring, etc. Nothing special.
Art: The animation is fairly good through most of the series. I liked the character designs for most of the characters, and they were unique enough that you wouldn't confuse one for the other. The "action sequences" weren't anything special.
Sound: Aside from the OP and ED, the music was

I watched this series and during the entire thing, I could predict each and every single one of the events that occurred. The ending was something that's quite shocking (but not completely, since it's relatively predictable) and disappointing. It's something that makes you say, "What. On. Earth. Just. Happened."
Hmm... Overall, it was quite a trivial anime; Good for passing time, but not much more than that. Reverse harem is one of my favorite genres (e.g. Ouran HSHC, Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge) and I started the series because of that. However, the romance in this was quite shallow. The entire anime was much too sugary. ... Jul 14, 2009
I watched this anime only because it is one of my favorite types of anime....reverse harem or shoujo. It also said it had action and romance. Too bad the romance, and action failed big time. The only signs of romance is when the girl blushes when talking to one of the hot guys.
I have to say the story and enjoyment was worse than anything. The only reason I watched it until the end was to see if the main female protaganist was going to actually find love between one of her companions and that also let me down. The action wasn't all that great either. ... Apr 3, 2010
I had high hopes for this series. Right away I thought the plot was amazing and i was very excited because i haven't watched any similiar ones. I believe it had great storys and amzing characters. My only problem with the anime was that it could have had a lot more action. Having such a great plot is hard to maintain and it would have been so much better if they had alot more action going on. Even in the last 3 episodes the action was lacking The last 10 minutes of the final episode was probably my favorite. I can't wait to start next

This is my first review, so bear with me! :)
Here we go... Story (8) Personally, I'm a big fantasy fan, so I was really excited to try Neo Angelique Abyss, and I don't feel let down at all. Of course, the whole "demonic monsters" thing isn't new, but I found their approach to it rather unique, because of the multiple new aspects that I noticed while watching. The character development in the show (as far as background story goes) is very good. All of the main characters get some sort of look back into their past, and some of them get a detailed explanation. The progression of ... Jul 6, 2011
I don't think I have ever written a negative review for an anime...ever. But this is one time where I have to speak my mind. Neo Angelique Abyss has got to be the most awful anime I have ever forced myself to watch.
Where do i even begin. Story? Fine. Plain and simple. World of unknown origin is under constant assault by monsters. Only a select handful of people in the wide world can fight these things. Some cookie cutter ditz is sought out by four of the most standard "heroes" I have ever seen to be there healer thing and she turns out to ... Apr 11, 2011
As one of my friends put it when I showed him the first episode of this:
Every shoujo anime cliche in the history of anime happens in the first 5 minutes. This is show is so trite and unoriginal it manages to cross the line into unintentional hilarity. If you were one of those girls who spent a lot of time back in middle school sitting around watching sailor moon and magic knight rayearth with your little friends eating pizza and talking about how to beat bosses in final fantasy 7, then you should seriously consider watching at least one episode of this anime, because you ...

I'll keep this review short because Neo Angelique Abyss is one of the worst animes I have watched. The animation looks like it's made from the 60s. The music is also average. The worst part is the plot and the characters. When the plot is about one girl living with four guys in the same house and fighting off tentacle monsters but at the same time it's NOT a hentai, you know the series is terrible. That wouldn't be too bad if the writers didn't push their limits to destroy the show even more by making not one but all the characters as annoying as

I gotta be honest, the only reason I watched this as well as its second season was because I love this anime's art style. The characters were drawn perfectly, & they're all beautiful. They are exactly as beautiful as the one in the otome game which I've also played. Other than that, there was nothing really special about this series.
The plot was so simple and demotivated, like there's no drive in each of the characters other than do what the story indicates them to do, there's no character development and even each character's back story were so bland and predictable. The main heroine is the most ... Mar 10, 2014
This is a typical reverse harem anime about a girl and group of male companions on a mission to save Arcadia. She must defeat the Darkness with the help of her friends who are always on hand to protect her.
Though the story is rather predictable, and seems to be mainly aimed at teenage girls, it is heart warming and funny at times with the occasional moment of surprise. Though this anime is in noway award-winning, it is the perfect guilty pleasure, with lots of hot guys and action. Though its forgettable, I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. |
