Synopsis

Something evil is stirring in the shadows of Tokyo...

During the spring of his senior year in high school, quiet Tatsuma Hiyuu transfers to Magami Academy in Shinjuku. The mysterious boy's "outsider" status and his profound skills in martial arts quickly earn him the friendship of class delinquent Kyouichi Houraiji. Through an uncanny connection and a happenstance challenge, he also meets Yuuya Daigo of the wrestling club, the captain of the girls' archery club, Komaki Sakurai, and Aoi Misato, the Student Council President.

During their encounter, there is a sudden, harsh disruption of the Ryumyaku (literally Dragon Pulse, otherwise known as Dragon Vein or Dragon Stream), the flow of arcane energy. The surge awakens within the five teenagers a latent power, giving them each a supernatural ability. Enlightened to their newly acquired gifts by Hisui, the young heir of the Kisaragi Clan who maintains his family's antiques shop - as well as their duty to protect Tokyo from Oni (demons) - the Magami students decide to use their power to protect the city from the onslaught of dark forces.

Battling the demons alongside Hisui Kisaragi, the five unlikely friends discover that they may have to face a greater threat to Tokyo other than destroying a few malevolent, random monsters. The Ryumyaku had been disrupted by force, from someone invoking the Dark Arts - and that person has a wicked desire to unleash a long-dead evil.

Can the teenagers overcome their own fears and flaws to fight against the Dark Arts? And soon they will also have to face their own destinies as they discover their Stars of Fate.

This anime is based on a manga, which was based on the Nintendo role-playing video game originally released in 1998.

This anime has all the classic elements from shounen, action, anime and uses them to produce this eerie, confusing yet superb show. ^_^

The story follows five students: Tatsuma, Kyouichi, Aoi, Sakurai and Daigo who never really have talked to each other, in their fight to protect the city. The 1st episode was extremely intense and exciting to watch, on the other hand it will leave you completely bewildered and wondering what was going on. Yet for the first couple episodes of Tokyo Majin not much was explained about the current plot and it felt unnecessarily confusing. It's only until episode 7 "Multitude of Demonic Arts" ...

I'm going to make my review short and sweet.

Almost all the main female characters in this anime are highly annoying, they boo-hoo over anything and everything. It makes it almost painful to watch at times. But the male characters in this are the counter of that which made it bearable to watch this anime all the way through.

The story itself is wonderful, and if they used better female roles I think this anime could have gotten an easy 10/10 from me.

Story - 10/10
Art - 9/10
Sound - 10/10
Character - 6/10

Mixed Feelings
Watchable.

Overall, I found the series to be entertaining andthe backstory of certain characters mysterious enough to keep me going until the end. The lead characters were likeable (more specifically, I'm a sucker for series where the main character falls into the "nice guy" archetype), although somewhat stereotyped and coupled with cheesy and altogether clichéd dialogue. Much of the human drama was too forced, but the almost careless, apathetic way violence and cruelty were presented was very effective in setting the dark tone of the story.
