Synopsis

Within one's Book of Fate is their destiny. Written by the mysterious Story Tellers, these books decide every small detail of one's life. Some Story Tellers, however, choose to interfere with the stories of others rather than write their own. These malevolent beings are known as Chaos Tellers, who seek to ruin stories by overwriting the Books of Fate.

Ex, Reina, Tao, and Shane were born with blank books. Ostracized by society due to this abnormality, they abandon their respective stories in search of better lives. In the vast unknown, they encounter famous fairy tale characters such as Cinderella, Momotarou, and Snow White. All the while, they work to subdue the Chaos Tellers and return peace and order to the stories.

Just a warning note, I knew of the game and have played it at the time of its release. However, even though I did enjoy and see great potential in its story line, I still dropped playing the game pretty early on since I saw no chance of an ending to the game's plot. This review will be heavily affected by that experience.

Also, this review will have heavy spoilers for the series and only serves as a view to it instead of a conclusion. If you really want to know what it's like, try the series out anyway.

Mixed Feelings
No spoilers.

This anime was fairly enjoyable. There's really not much to say about it because I found it quite mediocre, but the core concept behind the series is very cool in my opinion. I probably would have given it a 5 if I didn't find the basic concept so neat. They could have done a whole lot with it, but really the show was just sort of, well, there. It wasn't bad, but none of the characters were overly endearing and the plot wasn't very deep. Just a sort of average anime. Not bad at all, none of the ...

This anime would be good if you're like under 10 years old. Art is average compared to other shows out there, same with soundtrack. Nothing overly amazing. I was quite bored by the repetitiveness of the show.

TLDR;
Save yourself the time and skip this anime unless you want to watch it with your 5 year old. You aren't missing much.

<SPOILER WARNING>
Every episode aside from the first one, follows the same format. Every single episode involves our group of protagonists in a different fantasy story universe (Cinderella, Snow White, Alice in Wonderland, you name it). In every single one, the episode starts with the telling ...
