Levius

This is one of those short anime that kept me glued to the screen.

The story made me feel for the characters, and whoever practiced any sort of combat sports knows about the feelings portrayed in the anime: comradery, the will to keep pushing and becoming better.

I see that a lot of reviewers disliked the CGI and the story.
The art was amazing and so was the story in my opinion.

Hating CGI anime solely for the sake of agreeing with the status quo, that's just snobbism, and a poor attempt of achieving elitism.

Mediocre anime? The reviews do not do it justice.
...
If you like anime like Baki, or Kengan Ashura, this one is a nice touch, with steam-punk like cyborg boxing campaign, the premise is pretty wacky but then again, so are most anime.

I loved it, and I think you will love it too.

I saw Baki and saw Kengan, but now after seeing Levius. I can only say that it has been a wonder, as much as the story as to the quality of everything. Just check it to the end, its going to my top fav Shows and this is not a joke, we need more animes like that, Megalobox is the same wonderful anime that we need.

Characters: 10/10

Audio: 10/10

CGI: 10/10

Overall: 10/10

... The only bad thing its we can't enjoy more than 12 chapters.

A trully amazing show.

I hope we get a second season from the manga, i will be dreaming till this day.

Despite the CGI, the action of this show was actually interesting to watch, the fights were well build and had some basic to relentless strategy on it, although sometimes the scenes had some obvious low framerates and static/repetitive characters in the background, but no big deal.

As for the story, it seems decent, although it wont explore clearly the main characters intention and their reason to engage in fights from the beggining, which is kind good and bad at the same time, since it creates some environment of mistery while also kind of make hard to relate with them until later on, specifically Levius due to ... his silent archetype and lack of expression, although such character construction suits his tragic past/trauma.

The opponent characters were ok, but ironically kind falling behind due to the fast progression in their story. Still the characters animation actually seems very lively (taking in consideration it's CGI). Overall, I'd give it 8, because despite a few flaws it have, I'm actually a fan of fighting genre and also due to the fact that this anime made me aware about it source, the manga, which was totally off my radar and I'm glad to learn about that excelent piece of art.

I surely wasn't expecting this show, but I'm glad it came.

Hope for a second season with all the covered aspects upgraded.
