its not done yet. so many stuffs havent been resolved. and if harutora kissed natsume then is it settled that harutora chose natsume instead of others? another 12 eps of this anime would fit! and have a decent ending. the ending here isnt good tbh.lots of loopholes but still i like happy endings therefore 8/10


ps hope for s2!!! even all these years!!!

Tbh I found much of this show to be incredibly average with a stupid earnest MC and standard harem cliches and relationship drama that dragged the show down. Had a good core but what was built around it was very flabby. When the climax came though, the final six or so episodes Tokyo Ravens really picked up, stuck with fast moving plot and action and was much improved. I was going to give a 5/10 but will instead get to 6.8/10 or so, not sure even the improvement at the end can get me to a 7 especially as there is no conclusion as of yet.

Have to agree with the above about harem cliches and stupid relationship drama dragging the show down, those were definitely the weakest elements at times almost ruining the experience with their naive unoriginality. The show's world of onmyou though is quite rich and interesting and I wish they explored it more and didn't center it all around its weakest element which is the teen romance between relatives.

This was the anime that got me into watching more anime. Recently rewatched and have a much higher appreciation for it than I did when I first watched it. Really wish it would've gotten a second season or an update and translation to the ln.

Surprised this anime isn't more popular. It's really good with an interesting plot that twists and turns. Really hope it's gets more demand as with 7 other LN surely there's enough to produce a S2.

Love the whole show it is interesting. How they put the fight scene greatly. Natsume finally alive and ending was smoothly. Harutora aka Yakou should be powerful. Friend fist is great. 9/10

I'm a sucker for magic that is grounded in real life seeing as Index is my favorite series of all time. So this one intrigued me. Index never covered onmyoudou magic before so I was hoping to know about it here. Well I did learn something but because the plot felt rushed I barely learned anything. Can't really blame it because of time constraints. Overall, I enjoyed it. I finished this pretty quickly, just to show how engaging this show was. Cliffhanger ending but it doesn't matter since I'm an avid LN reader.

7.7, round it off and you'll get an 8. Will definitely read the light novel.

Bro I love this anime. All the Main characters were great and I enjoyed the whole story. There’s still more content after and I need to find out how it ends still a lot of unknowns but the way they ended it was an open end. Either way 10/10 for me.

Trash ending, trash that he didn't say he loved her back even though they played it up like she wanted the answer and MIGHT actually get it. But at least they got a kiss, but then he leaves and he's not even himself anymore? No wonder it didn't get a season 2. Who wants to see a second season about a character that's not even the MC anymore. And if he is himself they didn't make it seem that way to me. And WORST of all they didn't even show the ritual! They could have showed all that stuff, and how she had to be part something else to make it work, it would have been a big emotional moment and they just skipped over it.

Actually , a lot of person were way more intrigued by Yakou than Harutora , which seems like the cliché of Shounen protagonist.

For the "himself anymore" and the "show the ritual" , it's done on purpose , and it's answered in the second part of the story , which hasn't been adapted yet.
The thing is that the Anime/Manga (Adapting Light Novel Volume 01-09) is only the 1st part of the story , while Light Novel Volume 10-16+ is the 2nd.
They are slightly different in tone , and Natsume become the protagonist in this second part instead of Harutora.

Taking only the ending of the 1st part , it seems like a weird ending , but since it's not one... it's just the end of an "arc" in the complete story.

Yeah but they definitely should have wrapped it up a little better, and I really feel like the ritual to bring her back would have been nice since they made such a big deal about it. And I do love OP protagonists so having him be the other guy would have been interesting but I've grown accustomed to Stupid Tora lol, so to have him seemingly gone or blended is kinda weird. Also I saw this Anime on Top 10 List with OP MCs, and I was waiting the WHOLE time for him to be OP! Lmao, and then he basically does it for two seconds and off screen. Although that Suit was good with the Raven Coat. Is the LN good?

I personally don't think trusting "Top 10 List of X in Anime !" is a good idea , but welp... (He's incredibly OP in the 2nd part of the story tho , even if we don't see him much)

The LN is very good , but is it much better than the Anime to the point where you'll like it even if you didn't liked much the Anime... ? I don't think so.
(Plus even if i love it , i'm already a fan of the Anime so i'll probably be biased)

Even if the events/fights gets crazier in the 2nd part , it's overall slower , so you may not even like it.

If you liked the Anime , or are curious about what happens after , go ahead and read the LN. (Or a summary of it)
If you didn't liked that much the Anime , i'll say to go for another serie.

A bit vague ending. By "technically", I guess they wanted to leave it ambitious.

This anime has been quite a rollercoaster, especially in the final episode. Ending is bit disappointing imo, it's great that Harutora could revive Natsume but he left her after they confessed...But after all that happened maybe it's normal that nothing can be the way it was before.

There most probably won't ever be.

The Light Novel should finish in 1 or 2 Volumes , but it has been on Hiatus for more than 5 years now.
There is not enough material for 24 Episodes , anyway.

If you want the continuation , simply read the Light Novel.

I can't say I really liked much apart from Kon's glowup in this finale. As you see, series like this are just too afraid to take risks. You kill a character, you try to make it as emotional as it could be, and then a couple of episodes later you bring back that character lol. Making all of that build-up to nothing.

Show was just too basic in whatever it did. Despite having a good bunch of side characters, all we ever got was how every newly introduced girl has fallen for the main guy, who minus his personality in the last ten mins of this finale, was an insufferable mess. Goes without saying, they didn't actually try much over explaining stuff which forms the core of this series.

Really though, this never got a second season even after all these years, and I think that's for the best.
4/10.

Cool stuff, would like to see how it ends but it looks like there's still no news about the continuation of the light novel. But for sure, this anime is one of the best I've watch in a while.

It'll resume soon, Volume 17 (which could be the last one) is planned for the 19th March. Even so, a 2nd Season is extremely unlikely.

The Manga finished at the exact same point as the Anime; you should go for the Light Novels.

Wanted to give it 8/10, but last ep didn't go to my liking. I guess she will someday reincarnate in his world, and he also is in some different world? but both alive and need to find each other? but why he was at graveyard in last scene? Is he Harutora or Yakuo or both?
It seems there will be no more anime, and LN seems too boring to read after I seen someone post about what happens there...

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)
