Story-4: If anything, this story is nothing special. It's your generic "I'll kill them all" storyline. But for suckers like me, I actually didn't hate it. I mean, realistically, you acquire weapons by making a pact with a demon, to fight vampires? Seems a little bit off to me. The bromance (romance) between Yuu and Mika is so silly. It's basically Romeo x Juliet expect Romika x Yuuliet (props to tumblr for that joke). The only thing I thought was good was the backstory. For some reason I always teared up during the flashback moments, though it wasn't really anything special. So props for that. Still waiting for when the "Seraph of the End" part makes since, but then again I haven't taken the time to read the manga.

Art-6: The art in this anime wasn't half bad. Nothing crazy original, but the faces and such didn't bother me like some other art styles.

Sound-7: As I said earlier, I teared up during the backstory portion of this anime. I 100% would say that is because of the song 1 Hundred Knight M. That song is so beautiful. It remains one of my favorite songs to this day. Otherwise, the music is pretty average.

Character-5: Yuu is your generic overly passionate, scarred childhood, "I'll kill them all" character. Honestly, he isn't special. That's not to say I don't like him though. Mika is someone I don't see in a lot of animes. He is basically the friendly villain. I think that the vampire side of the table definitely has more interesting characters than the human side. I must say, this anime has your fill of "hot" anime boys.

Enjoyment-6: Even though I've been bashing on this anime, I do like it and am looking forward to season 3.

Overall-6: I rated this a Masterpiece on my Anime List, and I'm not changing it. I do like this anime even though it's very un-original. The characters and music make it a Masterpiece in my book. Now a days, it is very difficult to find anime that really makes an impression on me. Somehow this anime did, I wouldn't know how to explain it. I would definitely recommend you watch this and decide for yourself.
