Mixed Feelings
Shuumatsu no Izetta was a forcing of drama from beginning to end. It was as if the anime was playing with error and accuracy, with countless attempts. Those that either went very well, or went very wrong. I came across many times wondering why I continued to follow the anime, and I could never get a concrete answer. Maybe it was because I had a little curiosity to know if the relationship of both heroines was so "non-superficial" to the point of having so many cute and pseudo-romantic scenes, or if it was because I simply had a huge doubt of how anime Would end up leaving so many doubts and events to be clarified and developed in the penultimate and final episode.
I was very impressed by the fact that since episode 3, the anime made it so predictable and explicit that one of the heroines could die, entitled to an emphasis just before this possible scene, and simply to have left the logic and coherence aside To leave that same heroine alive for no reason at all.
So the anime was interesting and dynamic only in the first three episodes only, then it was a huge adjection of apathetic and mild episodes, which suddenly happened something random to give an impaction to it so as not to let those who watched sleep.

The plot was well formulated, but failed to give a dynamism to it, which unrolled all other negative factors to it. It was as if they wanted it to be resolved in the end, with no other development in the previous episodes, that could bring the end of everything.

The animation is above average, is fluid and the movements of the characters are "stable", this until episode 3, 4, because from them the quality of the same I was constantly falling. But after 10, everything went back to normal. Not completely, but a good part stayed as it was in the beginning.
The anime is visually pleasing. The graph of it was very beautiful and the scenarios were pleasant to see. The colors were vibrant and added a touch to the action scenes, which made everything even more beautiful. The action scenes that had plenty of it, but few of them were really good and exciting.

The OST is very good. In fact, maybe the most relevant plus point of the entire anime is just that. What really made the action scenes of the entire anime at the very least fit to watch, was just the OST. It was very well elaborated and is easily noticeable in whatever the situation or event.

The characters are not charismatic, they are not loving and they are not hateful. It is very difficult to describe them, because they do not give you any feeling. There is no character you can think of as great or as lousy. They are a mixture of superficialism and neutrality, basically.

Overall, Izetta was simply something that makes you excited, but that can make you fade that same animation suddenly with the slowness and fortuitous that the anime presents after all that was really worth watching.
