Tokyo ravens may seem to be an ordinary anime but its far from.
At first glance this anime has several cliches both in relation to plot and characters but it's more complex than that. Even though there will be several occasions where you will think typical the anime as a whole is very good.

The story is very interesting and the bits and parts that remind you of a filler just exist to discover the more playful nature of the characters. Yes there could have been more focus on the central plot but that would not have been so much fun.

The art is pretty great, though I admit that certain techniques utilized could have been improved, and by techniques I mean the actual skills utilized by the characters.

Sound, though not bad, is not something great. If you are looking for an awesome soundtrack you need to look elsewhere. Here you will find something more like nice music but after 10 mins you will not remember a thing.

The characters are very good. Even the secondary characters seem to have a fascinating story behind them ( regrettably you will not know that story from this anime). In general the character structure is pretty solid. Uniquest background stories are well presented or hinted throughout the anime and you pretty much get hooked. I could elaborate further but not point ruining the anime.

Overall enjoyment of the series is exceptionally high. Though it may seem just another cliched series the overall result will leave you very happy and wanting for more.

I would recommend this series for anyone wanting to spend a couple of hours just chilling and having fun whilst watching a very good series without too many complexities and obscure stories.
