This anime was at least a 7. I think this anime got compared to you-know-what instead of people watching it for what it was actually worth.

The story was fine and even set up for another season if they wanted one, but was fine with just the one as well. The characters had growth, although there was a little drama at the beginning that did not get a decent enough explanation, which i docked points for. But overall, the story did what it needed to do fort he plot points they used.

The art and sounds were great! They did that little click-power up sound effect ... that i like a lot and that definitely added to the effects during the climax of the show. They didn't execute It the cut scenes as well as I'd have liked to see, but they did a decent enough job with the time they had considering it was only one season, so i don't feel like it was really lacking as opposed to wishing it was a little longer.

I think they did what they set out to do for the character development in this story and did it well enough. They explored facets of two particular character tropes and i didn't feel like they were missing anything. They did do a lot of BL baiting though (if you know you know). I'm not really mad at that as a queer person, but some ppl take offense when characters are set up to have some kind of ambiguous more-than-friends feelings and the audience is left hanging with ambiguity.

As a lover of sports anime, this was enjoyable overall for what it was meant to do and convey, and i think it earned its 7 fair and square.

Okay i give this one an 7. This was maybe the most mean spirited anime I have ever seen, but at least they were consistent to the end. I think it was valid in its own rights without having a major key element that's common to the magical girl genre.

The art was good quality, not above or below the ones I can compare it to, and not too moe (which for me is usually off-putting). The fight scenes are well done, but i think they could have gone a little harder with the splatter at some points.

The sound was really good and I kept ... picking up on the soundtrack throughout the show which really heightened the fighting and gore.

The character development was upsetting in some areas because the main character didn't really grow until it was way too late. I think the show would have been more compelling if the characters had time to grow over the span of 24 episodes, especially since we could have gotten more insight on who was supposed to be the OP'd character at the end. But also, could we really take a full two cores of this? I'm torn honestly.

I'm a big fan of magical girl murder mash-ups, as i like to call them, and i can say i enjoyed it overall, especially because they executed the gore pretty well. They could have maybe even gone a little harder on the last two episodes.
