Most anime are made to sell or promote their source materials via it be manga, light novels, or video games. Escha and logy is the latter. Escha and logy is set in a fantasy world with magic, witches, and alchemy. But due to certain circumstances the world is slowly coming to an end. So the people of the world decide to work together to try and halt their spending doom. The story follows our two protagonist, Escha and logy.
The show is like a slice of life in a fantasy world. Most of the episodes are episodic
...
with only one plot line being brought up at near the end of the series. This is one of my main gripes with the series. The show was awfully boring for the most part. We got to learn the core mechanics for the world and nothing else happens after. You think with the worlds impending doom there would be some kind of urgency, but guess not.
The budget for this show was pretty much non existent. Lot of the artwork looked jarring at times. The animation wasn't very good. The movement wasn't very smooth and looked very unnatural at times. Also I understand many studios use recycled animations, but when the same scene happens four times in a row its very noticeable. The color palate for this show was very dull and bleak, which did fit for the show and its setting.
The characters for this show are just the basic archetypes that we see all the time. Nothing is really interesting about them. The designs are pretty bland and they're kept pretty much one note for majority of the show.
So this show was pretty much made to promote the games. Did it do a good job? Maybe it did since I'm kinda interested in them. Would I recommenced to any looking to have a good time? The answer is NO. This anime will be forgotten like so many others and only be remembered by the few who did watch them.
