I watched this show years ago and it was the first “real anime” I ever saw. It holds a special place in my heart and I decided to come back and write a review because of the DFO re-release.

Ill go ahead and say I gave the show a 8/10 based purely on just how much I enjoyed watching watching it. I wont sit here and defend the flaws that are very much present in this show.

4/10 Story
There really isn’t a story behind this show besides Baron trying to get rid of his Demon arm and the ridiculous characters he gets to join his cause. The characters that join him on his journey get a short little arc before joining up and continuing on with Baron. The characters have very little back story but I wanna say they redeem themselves by not being boring and making Barons “party” a very nice mixture of craziness and seriousness. I understand they don’t have much source material with it being a game and all but mi glad they added all the original classes from the game into the amine.

Sound 6/10
The opening songs are very generic in my opinion . I found myself skipping them very early on unlike most amines were most of the time I sit and enjoy the song and video. The pixel ending sequence was a very nice add that I watched a few times. The BGM was generic nothing to gloat about and voice acting was average at best

Art 5/10
I wont say much here except it wasn’t bad too look at but I’ve seen Gonzo do better with other shows that have been produced by them.

Overall all I stand by my intro. The characters are not deep but they’re fun to watch on this very generic story. I admit I am biased since I enjoyed and still enjoy Dungeon fighter online. I think and fan of both anime and DFO should watch this. I think they will to some extent enjoy seeing those original classes come to life and seeing the world of Arad we have spent countless hours in come to life in an anime. Not very well executed and as a standalone show since its very generic and poor story but being a fan of the game puts it just a little bit higher on my list . Hopefully one day with all the fans of the game there’s a well executed show based in Arad. PARTY CALL FOR LIFE
