----------------------------------------
One of the worst series of this season. Never should of trusted ARMS to adapt this into a 10-episode show.

Isuca's final fight in this season also felt meh. And to top it off, they had to add some suggestive camera angles in as well. They had to censor Isuca as well like usual. Sigh. Best part of the episode is probably some of the music. The fight was pretty predictable. Overall, very bad show.

At last this fucking shit adaptation was finally over.
Meh series overall. So I'll rate this Anime (adaptation from manga) a 5 (or 6 when uncensored BD was out) overall score.
But I'm quite wishing this was been took by another studio to have a faithful adaptation.

Top 5 worst anime of the season.

The dialogue was god awful and fight scenes so redundant and generic. The only good thing about this anime was the cat chick and the pig tailed big boobed girl.

You could have a drinking game with this anime everytime time someone says "Shinchirou" guaranteed you'll be drunk.

What's the other 4 worst Anime of Winter 2015
And I agree that Tama was the good one here but along with Nami/Sakuya's Grandma when she's on her dolls.
Although I still don't know what she really looks like.

Was going to pick up the manga when I finished the anime..... now I don't really know if even that is viable.

There were a thousand and one cliches and cringe-worthy scenes, topping the list would probably be kissing inside a burning building. I won't even go into complaining about the utter stupidity of it all because the show in itself is a joke.

Plus, I really hate characters like the MC, who really has no decent qualities to save himself from being an idiotically generic and idealistic Harem MC with a few screws loose and a lack of clarity regarding both his surroundings, and how his actions affect those around him. I was waiting 10 episodes for him to run into some sort of trouble to help develop his character into something better.... The show's finished and I'm still waiting.....

Then there's the story that tries to blatantly hide what's already obvious to all the anime viewers (i.e. the Magician is Sakuya's dad for sure), whilst attempting to act mysterious and not asking the most obvious questions (like WHY the heck would her Dad want to kill her?!?!).

When the OP and ED have animation that rivals Kite and Mezzo quality, I would have never expected the animation within the show itself and the entire adapted story to be so comparatively poor.....

Undecided on whether to pick up the manga, but I have extremely low motivation to after watching this cliche fest.

Isuca vs. Sakuya was so bad, I can't even.. Shinichirou's involvement made it even worse.

As expected, Tokiharu (Sakuya's dad) is the main villain. It was a no-brainer though.

Boring plot, cringeworthy moments, weak characters and horrible animation quality factors into the score of 2-3/10. Worse than Binan Koukou.

6/10.

Not sure if being overly generous, or just likes dull shows in general. Probably the latter.

Well, at least the endcards were nice though.

The good news is there's far more story and character development in the manga. Many cast members are far better there as a result. The bad news is it's still cliché-ridden, and not all that great itself. Good artwork though.

As for this series, you've touched on most of the objective issues. I'm at least able to mentally distance it from the manga if it's a piss-poor adaptation, but it was barely passable even then. And I have a high threshold for crap.

Definitely worst anime of the season! They could have done so much more with this and they seemed to have been fine with just making a mediocre anime!

Gave this a 5/10 only because Tama was my overall favorite character right up to the end!
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

The anime was not very good and I knew that when I first started it. I feel like the last episode did have a bit of better animation imo. The end card was probably the best thing in this whole anime. Well that or when Sakuya smiled at the end...

Wow. A super predictable and kind-of anticlimatic ending with the various kissing scenes and the loss of clothes through fights. Isuca vs Sakuya was alright, though it ended much as we had expected it to end.

Ergh. 3/5. I think it was an okay ending.

Lawd Jeezus that was awful.

Way to tease that mask guy was Sakuya's dad in the last episode...like we didn't already know. Just glad they added that when we know there wont be a sequel lol.

Also completely decided to not show was Suseri's true name was.

Why where there a thousand Isuca's in fish tanks?

Did loli grandma ever get a new loli body?

OP and ED were awful too. Every time I heard the OP I thought it was an episode of Love Live. Every time I heard the ED I just laughed at how the "hard rock" sound didn't match the mediocrity of the show at all.

Fucking atrocious. 4/10 and that's only because I'll masochist my way through the BDs to get all of the tits I was cheated out of. technically 0/10 right now, I'm just anticipating 4/10s worth of tits.

That censor was actually terrible this episode too. You could still honestly see Isuca's tit half the time.

If you're not trolling then you have legitimately bad taste. Fafnir and World Break were universes better than this shit.

Art and OSTs were better in both. MCs were infinitely better than Shinichirou. Stories actually followed a plot, which was marginally less cliché than Isuca. Still had fan service. Every episode didn't feel like a fucking time skip from point A to point D.

Well, I'm glad that there relationship progressed to that point, though I could probably do with reading more of the Manga.

I seem to be one of the few who liked it... And since I see that it's been compared to it, I also liked Unlimited Fafnir. Seiken Tsukai no World Break, too. But I'm also not a dickhead and have liked every Anime I've watched, so take that however you want.

Terrible anime, one of the worst of the season. Cliché and the ending made no sense at all. The fight was also too predictable, almost like it was supposed to be for 6 year old kids. Besides, the black censoring also looked weird.

Also, Sakuya has just two Attack Spells and 2 final techniques? WTF

It was a really unexciting ending, the show lacked interesting characters so I couldn't get attached to anyone. Although I thought Tamako was really cute, and Suseri was alright. :3

The story wasn't interesting ...and out of all the anime's I watched this season it was definitely my least favorite. I give it a 5/10...I mean there were a couple episodes I enjoyed, and I would still watch a second season just to see how the story unfolds lol.

The guy at the end "possibly" (aka obviously) being her father definitely confirms a season two I'd imagine.

Fafnir has Tear which is extremely annoying but the plot actually makes sense (somewhat) and watchable. World break is so bad that it is so entertaining.

2/10 for this episode, 3/10 for the series as a whole.

Haven't wanted to strangle a character as much in a long time. Both Sakuya and Shinichirou were intolerable in many ways. Even the romance if you can call it that towards the end felt more forced than Padme and Anakin in the newer Star Wars films. That's how bad I felt it was.

I'll be honest- I am the one guy who liked this series. Watched it every week on the day it came out, which is more than I can say about objectively-better shows being released on the same day. Likeable characters, , fun "monster of the week" arcs, good voice-acting. I liked the art and the action scenes. I realize that there was nothing terribly original about the characters or the setting or the overall plot, but still I couldn't help but care about the characters and the troubles through which they were going. And of course, the world-building was deep and for the most part sensible.

The mirror episode was extremely cool, for example. The episode where they have the two heroines that DONT CONTROL THE FUCKING WIND fight the smoke monster... less-so.

But good god, this sudden, forced, tensionless and incomprehensible ending just soiled the entire show for me. Not to mention that there was NO resolution of any of the major questions being asked in previous episodes. Just "I hate you cause you broke my arm and it hurt" "I hate you cause you made fun of my family"

Last week I was heartily suggesting that a friend of mine watch it (I'll be honest, I thought it was going to be a 12-episode arc and thought there was potential for some interesting twists and turns in what I thought were going to be 3 additional episodes).

This week, the same friend of mine (after having seen a screencap that she thought was amusing via Twitter) asked me if I suggested it, and my answer had to be no.
