A review of Rakidai Kisihi no Cavalry
Note: i gove scores based on the genres it is in so best example a hentwi would be reviewed as a hentai and nit comoared to the story of Death Note or Cowboy Bebop for example and their will be typos.
Story (8.2) :In evey season we normally get a anime like this a story where the main guy is weak at first or considered weak and unskilled and meets a girl/s who are genrally considered great or good students with what ability the anime is exploring (this case swordsmanship and magic) and at the end or near at
...
a end of the first main arc there is a tournament. This sometimes makes the story predictable as i could guess situations but it has a certain flare.
There is nothing really special about the anime from a story perspective we have seen this before and will give similar anime in the recommendations but this anime has some notable features to stand out;
- a developed love story that is decent and enjoyable. It twkes its time to build the relationship and give them arguments so they can express their feelings and how they want to approach the relationship. As it is not just a harem with a single kiss at the end or whatever
- the harem is not a traditional harem or a harem at all (good for some people bad for other people)
- the story in the manga is still ongoing and the anime just left off at a good place from the manga so a second season is likely or just read the manga.
-fan service is in the series but doesnt get in the way of a godd story like Highschool DXD or Highschool of the Dead (even though i love thoes anime and fan service u just got to enjoy a good sereis every now and then).
- ecchi and harem tropes the anime does break them after it settles down and brings them up every now and then, some may think this is a problem some will not, but this helps bring the story out and stand apart from the rest of the similar anime.
Characters (7.9): the characters are another strong point of the show som of the designs are not too unique or original but have a nice feel and good look towards them. Thencharacter interactions between them are quite cliché for the type of anime as you get you couple of genral harem girls, but they do expand on the heroine quite a bit as well as the mains sister. Now i am going to go through who i consider a main and side the i feel worth noting and give you a breif talk anout and a individual score.
MAIN:
IKKI (main hero) - he is nothing special just a copy and paste of other characters with their own little spin of a tragic backstory and different personality so they tried and i would say they succeeded with some success. (6.8)
Stella (makn heroine) - the genral princess and great student who first meets Ikki socshe must be his love interest right? Yes but that aside i feel like they tried to make her stand out and give her a lot of development. In turn, i feel she is the true main character if the show and that is not a bad thing, in fact it is good and saves the show at points. Definitely my favourite character of the anime. You can tell she has a design similar to other girls like my profile pic or Rias ect. (8 ish)
Shizuku (hero sister) - it wouldn't be this type of anime with out a sister this case full blood related who has the hots for her brother. In most cases i quite like it depending on how the character is portrayed and at the beginning i feel she was annoying but by her big fight in the tournament i really came to like her. Her design is pretty much a copy and paste as well with her personality in the end. (6.6)
SIDE:
Nagi- i would consider him to be me when im chill and in the anime he has shown possible moments to have a much larger role in the anime but up to the end has remaind a oleasant backround character i like and remain interested in. He has a nice design that is not a generic copy and paste even though i have seen characters designed like him beofre and his personality is quite different and original becuase i have not seen a personality like this in a long time. His diologue is great and is a wisdom character to Ikki and Shizuku a lot of the time.(7.9)
Toka (student council president) : we only see her till the second half of the anime but is a intriguing character that we dont see much about although i reckon we would see more in the future either second season or the ongoing manga but either way a generally good character with a design that i get confuesd a lot with the school newspaper girl you will see appear in the anime quite a bit as a side. (6.7)
Ayase - she is a friend of Ikki after training with him and if this anime was a normal ecchi/harem in the genre for sure would she have joined his harem and developed a love for him, but we dont get that which i feel is great as otherwise the romance of the anime the try to strive for is ruined as they cant balance a very good romance plot with a harem that all have amsligt romance plot as well. Otherwise the character has a general personality but a great backstory that really gets fleshed out in the anime. (7.2)
Art and Animation (7.4)
The animation is not a masterpiece like most madhouse productions have the potential but this is not a madhous it is a flying DOG work if i am not mistaken and from what i remeber about them this is probably one of their better works when they pull out the guns with the animation in action and other important scenes. Otherwise, it looks good and smooth but csn tell they took short cuts like most anime which is considered to have masterpiece animation takes to save budget and animation time. While, all considered the animation is good-great and would feel that anyone would considerate below average.
The animation in the fight scens diesnt leave me with my eyes buring and not knowing what i am watching from the amount of shit going on but at times is very quick and like shite what was that bit, but you can tell they put effort into the animation of the fights.
The color palette is quite warm and eyecatching and i considered good and they will use different styles and chades to fit the mood. Not much else to day then its pretty good.
Music/Sound (7.2):
The anime has a decent soundtrack with some notable tracks that i could remember if someone played them but is not outstanding by all means. Well, actually i could recognise the music, but it would be the situation of where you heard it beofre but not sure where. So it is slightly lacking not below average. The opening is good i would reccomend one watch then skip if need be. The ending is a skip, below average in my opinion.
The music composer is something Nakagawa, the same person who composed soundtracks for as Code Geass (s1&2) which i dont remeber sadly but if you do take that as you will.
For sound effect they are pretty good some are your classics but others are great, so just like most anime then.
The voice acting in the japanese voice actors (watched eng sub) is great as i have heard those actors before in other roles and i can say they did good. Otherwise, i do nit know if there is a dub but from a anime that is not a masterpiece or mainstream i would not imagine anything note worthy or great aboht it so wat h the eng dub for your self.
Overall :
The anime is very overlooked and holds a lot of promise for a good second season from its good first season as i will read the manga soon. I will say that the anime is not a right out but it in blu ray as my plan is/was stream it, read the manga, wait until second season announced, buy it.
I would only recommend this show if you into these genres:
- Structured and developed Romance
- Tournaments (generally battle)
- ecchi/harem (hardcore may be put off but should give it a watch especially if you like not too much of the ecchi/harem)
- Simple Story
- School setting
I would not recommend this if you sre looking for:
- a original plot as this has been done a lot
- Complex Story so Dearh note esq.
- a proper borderline ecchi/harem
Anime reccomendations:
-Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei
-Toraru Majutsu no Index
-Strike the Blood
-Infinate Stratos
- Highschool DxD

As they try to humiliate her and walk a fine line from being caught with her they get into some close call situations. Generally the story in sweet and simple as the characters adapt to their roles and develop (especially ...
