SPOILER!!!



... I watched it all in 2 days, I like it but the ending is kinda disappointed. I hate open ending. I believe the Robin and Amon are not death and will live happily together. I believe so because Michael hinted it that way. Yet, at the VERY end, the new hunter comes. It has certain someone's vibe, but there's no more about this new hunter except for a glimpse shot with a woman is all black who reminds viewers of Robin.

This starts slow like a typical anime, to let viewers know what actually this people are doing, then in the mid episode, the story is getting somewhere, then the tension begins. After that the big reveal and the ending. Honestly, it has nothing surprising, the story is kinda predictable (in my case, maybe because I watched too many anime to be able to predict something like this).

The story is going like this: Robin a witch hunter who exactly has the witch power but being called a craft user who hunts witches suddenly becomes the hunted one. Then it reveals that actually witch is the superior one. And after so much talking, it ends.... without any great or memorable fighting scenes. The creation of orbo (the green liquid) kinda predictable too, since Zaizen never kill a witch and put them to the factory, also created by him. Nothing is really surprising though, yet still enjoyable to watch.

The plus point in this anime is the music. Oh, what a divine to my ears.

The minus point is the ending. As I mentioned before, I hate open ending. Though I believe Robin and Amon live together as fugitives.

It's an abomination that dare to use Basilisk as it's base.

I've never enjoy any single of the episode of this anime. It's dragging to long, 24 episodes just to see how mediocre the character and the story? 24 episodes of nothing! It even shouldn't exist in the first place. It's such a disgrace of the REAL Basilisk.

Story
The story is the most horrible part. This looks like a fanfic written by a b*tthurt Basilisk fan who doesn't want to acknowledge the ending of REAL Basilisk. It's just 2 mc who looks excatly as Gennosuke and Oboro, but actually siblings (WHO LOVES EACH OTHER). Incest is heavily ... implied in this anime, which is disturbing! The story is so absurd and nonsense, I'm so disappointed on myself for wasting 2 days to watch it. The story is focusing on bunch of lame ninpou fighting the evil who suddenly appeared. It's more like a shounen than a seinen, but Basilisk is a SEINEN! I love Basilisk because of the drama that feel REAL, not like a half-bake shounen like this. If I want to watch good shounen, I know what I should watch instead of this abomination! I don't mind if you make this one, but don't you dare putting Basilisk in the title. This is not even a Basilisk! This is a pathetic story writing that borrow from Howl's Moving Castle, Basilisk, Naruto, GeGeGe no Kitarō and many more. They wasted lots of episode just to talk and bring everyone's sad past to make it longer. I skipped a lot of episodes and still can guess what will happen next. Story is too predictable. Yes, the Basilisk too, kinda predictable, but it's enjoyable because we can feel what the characters feel, I even cried at the end of the REAL Basilisk.

Character
It's nothing like Basilisk. In Basilisk, you can connect with the characters, I, myself dislike Tenzen because he's a rapist, but I like Hyoma because he has the sense of loyalty. The character design is bold which is good. What about this prequel? Nothing... The design is meh, also sad past doesn't mean I need to pity you or I can connect with you. Their sad pasts are mostly ridiculous too (won't spoiled it). Now about their Ninja Magic aka Ninpou, while the REAL Basilisk has lots of variety with this, the prequel is a zero! Hello, Gun girl? Yes, I'm looking at you. Rhino boy, flying eyes boy who looks like Kitaro? Eye-patched girl who can shed tears and a drop of the tear can make men h*rny. If you want to make it has sexual appeal like Akeginu and Kagerou, you shouldn't make a kid do the job. Akeginu and Kagerou have sexual appeals because they are portrayed as mature grown-ups and don't act like a brat who pants like a crazy B whenever the insect boy (Shichigen) around her. It's annoying and disgusting. The only Basilisk in this prequel is the eyes of 2 mc. Even that, the mc is super annoying. Kouga Hachirou is a bs character who keeps whining, nothing like Gennosuke who act like a leader, he's useless piece of S who borrows the power and the appearance of Gennosuke. While Oboro is a bad leader (which she admits herself), she's still a loveable character, mainly because she's honest, and what about Hibiki? She's as annoying as her older brother. Useless without her piercing eyes. Oh, and all the battle is only including shooting bombs or cannons. Where's the jutsu everyone loves?? All they can do is using their one and only OUKA. Bleh!I don't feel anything for them, when they (RIDICULOUSLY) die, I laughed instead feel the pain. Death characters supposed to be sad, but instead I laugh.

Music
Mediocre, nothing like the first one. Some of the music even don't fit the scene.

Animation
Also Mediocre. Nothing praise-able

Overall 0/10 NO! -100000/10 This disgrace shouldn't even exist in the first place!
