| the art was nice and 1 or 2 bgm tracks were cool. Plus how the Ultra Instinct thingy at the end looked was dope. But the story was generic, dull and predictable. Couldn't find one character on this show that was charismatic and entertaining, everybody was one dimensional. this show felt like if it was a bad fusion between the saga of Tanya the evil, Garo and Golden Kamuy. Kinda skeptical, don't know if i'll pick it up whenever a second season gets made. 5/10 |
| Nice non-ending. This was the most "hey, go read the manga" type of ending I've seen in a long time. I never could get fully invested in the premise of all the Incarnates needing to die. Hank's mission of killing all his comrades seems far too black and white. Needs to be a little more subtle. And the siren girl certainly didn't deserve to die. Anyway, 10/10 for Liza's huge anime tiddies. |
| Was surprised by that out of the ass power up to Hank, the Fuck? Where was it all this time, you've got to he kidding me! Oh, well! I wasn't expecting much from this train smash from the beginning. The plot was mediocre from the start, even Cain got away with it. What a load of bull this anime was. The plot sucked but I certainly did not hate it. It did its job of keeping me company on Mondays, so I cannot complain that much. Schaal is the worst character I've seen this year, fuck the bitch, fuck her braided tail and that gun she always carries for decoration. 5/10. |

| average story, less than average characterisation, but decent psychology and moral ambiguity. 4/10 |

| Well weird how things escalated really quickly like how Hank got suddenly op just by getting touched by Schaal. Speaking of Schaal, woah there, are they making Schaal and Hank a couple because that's really weird. Well, looks like Ellaine will be Hank's enemy eventually |
 |
| another asspull power-up by Hank but of course Cain won't go down that easily! LOL at the soldiers, didn't get seduced by the 2 watermelons of Liza but went for the adorable Schaal! omg Cain let Elaine live! i wonder what the plan is? 4/5. wait for S2. |
 |
| I mean, I get it... I guess? Like somehow, Hank accepted his state of being in-between being an Incarnate and Human, using Schaal as support... but I don't know how it gave him powers. It was a fine distraction from when I had nothing to watch, so it's a 5/10 from me. Just makes me wonder if the manga improves upon or that. Anyway, the most important lesson this series has taught me is that even the most humble soldier can prefer justice over oppai. I salute those men. o7 |
| "You know you've reached peak quality when a doujin is better than the actual source series." (Eg. To LOVE-Ru) Just to list a couple of biases. Likes: A good story, characters, writing, romance, a good plot twist or something that breaks expectations (In a good way), 'backstory' and justice. Dislikes: Bad romance, too much fanservice, the harem genre, yuri, yaoi, and bad writing. |
| big tiddies fill a man's hands, but small boobies fill a man's heart well this wasn't the worst anime I've seen, but I felt it was not very good. Having increasingly mediocre art just seemed to compound the problems I had with the content, making me reluctant to complete this, though these last two episodes were at least decent looking. I think the biggest problem is that everything is not very logical. So how can the use of poison gas as a "human" atrocity really matter when the violence of Incarnates seems equally brutal and terrifying? An attempt to give a serious counterargument to the proposition that Incarnates are worse than humans fell flat to me. A big problem to me is the lack of distinction between Incarnate and human in the first place, since Incarnates are not aliens, but are formerly normal humans. Hank reaffirms that killing Incarnates is right and correcting a mistake made by humans...which also falls flat to me that I've detailed in a previous post. So, the anime does not quite deal in complexity. It deals in the same subject matter as Devilman/Devil Lady, but doesn't approach it with the relative sophistication that Nagai Go and Konaka Chiaki do. This wouldn' be so bad if the anime weren't so reliant on the characters' logic and focused on irrational motivations instead, given the irrationality of war itself. Cain seems jealous of Hank and Elaine's relationsip, whetehr that's of Elaine or Hank is not clear, but his desire to have hank in his new world order is perhaps a sign of a frustrated homosexual relationship to me. Now, this is really interesting and if this had been more of a narrative focus this might have been of much more interest to me. Or if it was over Elaine (considering he seems to have her in a sac or something) at least that's still something that is more tenable than moral justifications. That said, the obvious rebellion of the child (Cain) against the Father as an emotional motivation, that I'm surprised has not really been made explicit yet, would be so dull and predictable and a redux of Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress, which at least had the decency to have a cool train and hot engineer. There were some things I liked about this, mainly the interesting choice of civil war theme and Riza's boobs (dat boob mole chef's kiss), and Schaal is cute, if kinda useless. The series is so based on characters that the world itself lacks in sense; we never see any other uses for this magic mineral that the war is fought over. It seems to have no transformative effect on society in technology or something, but I guess we can't all be Bioshock. If there were more episodes to this and felt more like an adventure series, maybe there would have been more world-building, but I'm also thankful it's as short as 12 episodes. The plot of finding a new person with a sad history to kill each week is not particularly uplifting, and it's not possible for me to enjoy the violence since I feel dubious about it's morality. |
| The show started off interesting, but as the series progressed it started to focus more and more on the fights which became more and more repetitive. The backstories of all the different 擬神兵 were all tragic and quite often made me choke up, but towards the end of the series I just stopped caring as much. The animation wasn't that great either. Overall I'd say this show is just mediocre. |

phil2288 said: The anime has covered the 1st 30 chapters of the manga (middle of Vol 6). Chapter 54 just came out recently, so the anime's got 24 manga chapters to catch up with. The plot gets more interesting in later chapters starting from Thanks for that bro, you saved me a lot of time. |

| Elaine being alive was obvious. I'm guessing Cain was just jealous because he wants Hank all to himself. Typical non-ending ending. I don't think it will continue. This drops to meh for me, 5/10 |
 |
| This was mediocre at best. The story was interesting in the beginning got boring pretty fast. And the little character development and poor animations don't really help. I agree with Cain the real antagonist was Elaine because she didn't try to correct her mistake she simply tried to get rid of her mistake by killing all the incarnates which was unfair to them. This is why he killed her and spared Hank. I think Cain just wants the incarnates to live without fear of persecution and for that a war is needed to boost incarnates reputation. |
| Gas! Gas! Gas! Here are good moments and there are some meh ones, but I didn't find anything particularly bad. Overall, I would watch a second season. I still don't think killing incarnates is the solution, but we will have to either read the source material or maybe a 2nd season to find out. Also it seems Cain is a bit of a yandere for Hank lol. Doesn't like when girls are with him. Well probably because relationships help maintain sanity? The bartender helped one incarnate keep her sanity. And Hank has been pretty sane with Elaine and Schaal. But some other incarnates also had family so I'm not sure why they weren't ok. |
 |
| Good to see Hank at least punch Cain's face I guess? I'm bit disappointed in the execution of the rest of the series compared to episode 1, I feel like they could have done a lot of things better, such as giving Schaal a more important role other than being a support for Hank's sanity and maybe show a bit more on Cain's perspective. Most episodes felt like monster of the week were most things are predictable instead of being unique and suprising but that's just my opinion. I think they could have added a sense of danger by making Hank lose his control more often to show he doesn't have much time instead of just episode 6 when he saw Schaal getting hurt. Overall pretty decent anime but I definitely felt the gap between episode 1 which in my opinion was pretty great and the rest of the series which was kinda decent |
 |
| Such a mediocre show yet it had to start with a even weaker beginning that could put you to sleep. With that said, the plot picked up pretty well in the last couple episodes. The show would have so much better if they construct the story better instead of what we got "A wolverine clone walking around with a girl killing monster every week." Sigh... From the spoiler I read above I must say I want a second season please. |

| CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP THIS ANIME IS SERIOUSLY ONE OF MY FAVORITE EVER !!!!! SEASON 2 PLEASEEEEEEEE BECAUSE THIS IS ANIME OVER 9000 !!!!!!!!!! MASTERPIECE AND ABSOLUTE BEST AND PERFECT :DDD TO THE ABANDONED SACRED BEASTS GETS 10/10 |

| This started out sketchy, became mildly interesting up until about the halfway point, and then promptly squandered all the goodwill it built up. Being centered on redemption and loss of purpose, being character-focused, was a good look; the action scenes were never very good and turning into a Golden Kamuy/AoT knockoff is most definitely not. |
| Well, this anime has some weakness indeed, it's not a big show, but overall, I think it's good one. I like Schaal, I think she is pretty (I know she should be more useful though...) 7/10 |
 |
| Ah, we would never have guessed that the girl who was supposed to be dead, she wasn't dead, Oh là là !!!! Well maybe we'll meet again in 10 years for the anime sequel, of course because I won't read it in manga, that's for sure ! xD |
