The Characters
I found the characters to be the biggest problem with this show. They are all horribly annoying.
Death the Kid - An OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) kid who is willing to put the mission and others at risk in order to satisfy his desire to make everything symmetrical. Really pisses me off!!!!!
Black Star - An exact clone of Naruto. The only difference is that Naruto wants to get stronger in order to protect those important to him, while Black Star wants to get stronger for himself. And on occassion he is prone to throw tantrums (what I interpret to be tantrums. Gets all moody like he has PMS) when he looses.
Maka - Okay personality, except she gets moody sometimes also. I didn't like the voice actor either. She had a very monotone voice. When she is yelling in anger, if I did not have the picture to go with the voice, I would not be able to tell what kind of emotion her voice is trying to convey.
Excalibur - Worst character ever created. Every episode that has him is a pointless filler episode. He was so annoying that I just skipped all the episodes that contained him (which were only a few THANK GOD!). He constantly interrupts others and says irrelevant things. You have to see him to get the full meaning of what I'm trying to describe.
Shinigami - What can I say... Looks like a retard and talks like a retard.
Oh and just a heads up, the way they defeat the final boss does not make sense. I'm assuming the writers made the bad guy so strong that they couldn't figure out a way to kill him, so they just made something dumb happen.
The one positive thing that I will mention in this review is that the powers and abilities in this show are pretty unique. Unlike the tv show Heroes where they just copied all of the powers from X-men, the writer was actually original in some of the characters abilities. The witch medusa has a cool Vector Arrow thing going on and another guy uses the blades of chain saws.
Overall, not a great anime. I can't believe I managed to finish it, but if you are still planning on watching it, you will see that I AM RIGHT. YOU WILL THEN BOW TO MY GREATNESS AND CALL ME GOD!
