Detailed breakdown below.
Story (6/10):
It is a one long storyline, speaking about a small kingdom and its ruler who is an archer of godly skill. One things go after another, and story follows the kingdom and characters go through series of battles and conflicts. Those battles and conflicts are portrayed indifferently, and the narrative often takes step back to describe battle details, or to explain some bits of the lore. IN a sense, it is a bit similar to what Youjo Senki were trying to do with its strategic maps, however, in Youjo Senki political and strategic episodes felt forced, boring and out of place, and here they're interesting to watch. Overall, it almost looks like a medieval slice of life road trip kind of story, even similar to spice of wolf (although spice and wolf was more dramagic and spent more time discussing economics). Which is - if you think about it - a bit weird, because there are battles and quite a lot of unnamed warriors die in the background. Still I found the story interesting, aside from that one place where it suddenly pulled 5 deus ex machinas in the row.
Art (5/10):
Average or slightly above it. Colorful backgrounds and characters, drawn in modern anime style (triangular faces and stuff). Level of detail is a bit low, but not as bad as in, say.... "Taimadou Gakuen 35" or Mahouka.There's quite a lot of CG being used - for battles, armies, etc, mostly it does not stand out too much, but there was that one scene where I seriously wondered what the heck is that CG soldier doing in background. So, art works for the anime, and it isn't horrible. Characters are visually/cutish side as well.
Sound(5/10):
It is good overall, and there's medieval tune that plays at the end of every episode during preview... which I liked a lot. However, on occasion the anime started played some soundtrack that felt seriously out of place, mostly during battles. That one was annoying.
Characters(5/10):
Because the anime appears to be trying to display events from a bit of distant perspective, they're not very well portrayed, and do not have much opportunity to display their individual traits. Villains were a bit too far into "cliche villain" territory and were annoying. Protagonist and his companions are portrayed a bit better, but they're somehow displayed in almost neutral fashion, barely getting any chance to display their personalities. I mean they show their quirk or two from time to time, but you don't get attached to characters, and don't feel very compelled to sympathize with them. You jsut sorta watch the story unfold on a big scale. The only thing of note is that Main Heroine's character is very similar to that of Medaka from Medaka's Box. And that's about it. Characters aren't horrible, but it feels like they could use more effort.
Enjoyement (6/10):
I liked it due to the a bit calm of atmosphere which reminded me of Spice and Wolf. However, given amount of battles, this may not be what the anime was supposed to be, so your mileage may wary.
Bottom Line:
I'd say it is worth checking out if you have the time, or want some sort of medieval world which is not heavily magical and which is not another "we're now a computer game" kind of story. Basically - a more serious kind of settings than, say the one in KonoSuba. If you pick it up you'll see battles, kingdoms, occasional maps discussing some strategic moves, and few light jokes. Occasionally aniem tried to get tragic and serious, but didn't succeed much at it (although results weren't cringe-worthy either).
You decide if this is what you want or not. Although this title is no masterpiece, I enjoyed it.
