Since Sword of Uruk is just a sequel to Aegis or Uruk I thought I'd save some time and include both of them in this review.

I'll get down to it Aegis of Uruk was mediocre at best, it started off great the first episode was just one cliche after the other thrown at you in a hilarious fashion. After that however the series just went downhill. In a hard to explain way it was just bad.
The story seems rushed, they switch from scene to scene ungracefully and it feels like there are parts missing in between it all.
The fight scenes are uninspired and just no fun to watch.
There are about 3 worthwhile episodes worth watching in the first season and thats just sad.The only thing that barely redeemed the Aegis or Uruk (and I mean barely) were the comedy segments, occasionally they'll get more then a slight chuckle out you.
The cliffhanger in the end however did draw me in mostly because I just wanted to see what would happen. But surprisingly the second season didn't disappoint.

The Sword of Uruk started off much better, but at this point the whole thing became really serious and it felt like a letdown compared to the first season.
Most of the issues present in Aegis or Uruk are here but are far less in number.
The fight scenes were a little better and continued to get better toward the end.
They filled in all the plot holes (at least as far as I can tell) but it dragged a bit towards the middle kinda making you want to just skip to the end, but dont worry it picks up.
Overall it was much better then the first Season and the end leaves you with a nice feeling inside. Id tell you just watch the second season but then you'd be missing out on a lot of story. Its a nice series overall but Id only recommend the whole thing if you are willing to put up with the failure that is the first 12 episodes.(excluding the first episode, My favorite ^.^)
