The antagonist becomes a meat slump and then......is crushed by the protagonist's fists....LOL

Quite reassuring that other protagonist's friends are safe....except the shopkeeper is admitted to hospital but seems sound...LOL

Good ending for both male & female protagonists reuniting......

Had it's enjoyable episodes and moments, but overall it felt rather lackluster.

One of the most disappointing anime this year.

In the end, none of the important questions were answered! Also, given the regenerative power of the final antagonist, was it really possible for him to be killed by crashing or are we supposed to assume that he was burned to death by the fire? This anime was an overall disappointment.

That ending was... pretty bad. Honestly I still had some faith in this right up until the last couple episodes. Could have been so much better. Really interesting art and concept had potential but it didn't do enough plotwise. Some of the side stories were interesting enough but you need to do more than that.

Hard to disagree. This still put a smile on face quite often through most of it, but it's one those times where the reason for that is a mystery because there's nothing I can point to and say "this was good"... Other than Zero. Not just the design of the character in terms of looks and personality but the VA really did a good job.

That villain at the end though... His VA should never get work again lol. I don't care how bad the script is, if you can't do a basic evil laugh without sounding retarded then you have no business being paid to voice act.

Ah, finally the episode showed up on the Internet.

I'm glad it is over, honestly it felt annoying to watch after the first 3-4 episodes. I mean, it started up nicely, presenting a sort of half-dark anime (especially with all the characters turning mad or something, leading 'em to deny their common sense for another personal purpose) that really got interesting.

But then it just turned out to present side stories none cared about, sometimes a bit funny, sometimes extremely pointless. The fact they tried to add some backstories during the 2 last episodes was actually hilarious, considering they only served some independant & uninteresting episodes.

I had given a 7/10 for the 3-4 first episodes, but now I lowered my mark to 5. I do think it deserves a 5.5/6 but my current disappointment makes me choosing the following mark.

It had potential, it globally failed. Worst part being : I got the feeling I ain't know shit about the whole background/universe. For example, who the hell is Shuuin ? After 13 episodes we still ignore who he is, how did he get such powers (how do they exist in fact) and who's Inyou to him ? So many questions that unanswered...

Pretty disappointing tbh lol, if it wasn't episodic anime and actually focused on a plot it might've been something but I guess not

What a bland, boring ending. What kind of person thought this was a good idea? Why were they doing this? It makes me think that the occasions in which this anime was interesting, they must have happened by accident.

if it wasnt for the first two episodes that sets up the premise (that was unfortunately never fully utilized), that one funny episode that everyone hated, and Emilia...it woulda been a 4/5 from me. but im nice enough to give it a 6. i never even paid attention to a good number of episodes bc it was just eh. the serious final arc episodes didnt help much bc it was so outta nowhere.

very disappointing and does not deserve a second season

Didn't know I was watching Akira......

This was pretty bland and average the whole way through. I would've preferred if they stuck to episodic stories the whole way through instead of trying to develop some sort of serious plot in the last three episodes. (not saying episodic series can't have serious plots ofc.) Made the show go from exceedingly mediocre to just plain bad.

3/10

So this shitshow is finally over.

Honestly, I was stoked to watch this at the beginning, seeing that it had kinda a fantasy-ish vibe that was constant but stagnant, and the "insert" ending story about rescuing the protagonist's helper just...didn't help it all that much. This series didn't need a story to begin with.

Good -> Decent -> Mediocre -> Bad is how I would describe this.

This was a boring end battle, I'm really disappointed. But I'm glad Zero and Inyou reunited with each other, aaand also the rest of the gang is okay! Considering how OP Inyou was in the beginning of the series, he sure was weak in this last episode- maybe because the antagonist was a human and not a Magmell monster.

Overall it was a let down in which I expected a lot from it. Everything was low from storyline, character development, animation and enjoyment. The inconsistency was the worst to hit this anime, because everything didn't seem to follow well. They just went with the story without telling us what was it about, I bet no one understands what was the plot about- Magmell or Zero's mystery past? SMFH!

6/10, this needs a revamp from another studio.

Meh. I liked this show. Zero was a qt.

Had quite a few similarities to Hunter x Hunter, actually, and there was a strong sense of adventure. Was also taken aback by how brutal it was at times. The creatures in Magmell were bizarre and imaginative and I certainly wouldn't mind learning more about this strange place.

It’s never a good idea to change tone in the final 3 episodes. 7/10 becomes 3/10 when you decide do.

Well, I must admit that I expected much more from this anime. "A new continent with totally unknown living beings" and if you add to that a race with powers, the Lactor, see where you see it, this anime had a lot of potential, at least for me. What a pity that the author directed the story in a different direction.
My favorite episode will always be episode one. For me, it was the best. It opened my mind to many possibilities about this anime. Which, in the end, was disappointing, just like the "Fairy Gone" anime was. Two animes with potential that went overboard 😕.

Anyway, I will not deny that it was an entertaining anime. At least, I laughed a little 😅.
It has left me with many unsolved mysteries.
Until never, or as they would say in Japan, sarabada.

PS: I am satisfied that the damn old man paid at the end for his atrocious acts.
hahaha, the lord of the store was the only one injured. I'm glad everyone finished out of danger.

Score: 5/10

Well, I was finally able to bring myself to finish this anime. It's easily a meh, but it could've been more, disappointing.
6/10 Would not watch again.

Well the first couple episodes showed some potential, but the story never really took off. Really expected some world exploration of Magmel, with some unique creatures and people with superpowers but what we got were some random episodes with no explanation of how people got powers nor a real plotline. Bit disappointing, seeing the potential of what it could have been (something like the Toriko manga story)

Even if it's not really that great, I thought it was relaxing enough to enjoy watching, but the last few episodes haven't really been that great, it was frustrating to watch all the shit that went down and this dude just went around bombing the places up without repercussions like there wasn't any law in the towns or shit. If the protagonist didn't exist there literally would be no punishment for that guy.. yeah wtf?

The show overall felt pretty weak, the story/world building was really bad, going back to my first paragraph, the main city wasn't really getting much exposition so we barely even know about the system over there.. everything was treated like a joke and it kinda sucks. The writing felt really amateurish, that even if most of the outside parts look the same as the other anime, the core values are missing.

It's a shame because I thought it looked great.

That sure was quite something, really liked the whole setting of a new continent and then people with some super natural powers and quite a lot of monsters!

Quite liked it in general but the last few episode had a bit of a completely different focus than the adventure of how it started.

But well in general a nice watch.

Not bad arc, but the Magmel world was the main draw. Inyo & Zero backstory make a cute pair tho.
Mixed episodes of some good monster action & great fables, with some awful pacing, bad animation, weird plot or horrible comedy.
Magmel, with very interesting monster designs, deserves more world building. Should've expanded on Ractors origin & how it works. Show is clearly episodic tho so didn't expect much.

I finally took some years to finish a few last episodes, and honestly, i don't remember well the first 8 but i thought it was bad but i was expecting much worse, so that wasn't as bad, especially the whole Zero arc.

I know necromancy is not a joyful thing but I had to vent somewhere. Boy was this show a let down. At least last 3 episodes which came out of nowhere and all of the sudden there's a guy who can't be defeated but not because he's powerful but because no one is doing anything. Main character literally stood and took beatings for three episodes straight. And then biggest let down conclusion I've seen yet. Boy oh boy.
