Synopsis

A 16-year-old boy named Shurato and his friend Gai happen to be drawn into a gigantic ball of light while competing in the final match of a martial arts tournament. When they regain their senses, they find themselves transferred to a mystic heavenly sphere with a divine atmosphere. It's soon discovered that Shurato used to be the governing king of this world and that he has only been brought to his original state. Shurato is shocked as Gai suddenly turns hostile. After this unfortunate incident, a spectacular yet fantastic drama develops involving the two.

just finished the entire series and figured id give a review since this anime is not really talked about by english speakers

the voice acting and music/soundtrack is very good I found the music very catchy and fitting. Shurato is what id say is what Saint seiya would be if it was an isekai with hindu myths.

Shurato is very similar to Saint seiya and has been compared to it, it was clearly influenced by it as this came just around the same time as Saint Seiya's hype, Saint seiya inspired a trend of what id call "magical boys in armor" it was shortly lived though ...

An anime i watched recently from around the time i started to watch anime, and some things were predictable, other things were`nt, the story i liked very much , so as some of the charachter developments, music i had no complaints about +) Only the thing is that the main person, Shurato is a bit too sensitive and does reckless things what put me off a bit, and the too emotional scene`s on and off that destracted me, But i plenty enjoyed the show

The pacing is also not very consistent and almost felt like a "monster of the week" anime.
Despite being a relatively long anime it also felt as though much of it was rushed.

Like saint seiya it is based on mythology but in this case hindu/buddhism and personally I did not find it as interesting because ...
