Mixed Feelings
No hard spoilers in this review however there are some references to objects and the aroma the story gives off; however no direct examples from the story are given nor do I give off the main Ideas of the plot.

Story (4): Starts off very ambitiously with an amazing first episode to pull the watcher in; however this feeling does not last. Once episode 6 is reached the story becomes a droll. I simply could not get myself to understand or comprehend the gravity of the situation. I can't help but feel this is a result of 'jumping around' the show could not decide what to focus on, it feels more like a scrap-book than a cohesive plot.

Art (6): Sometimes the 3D animation can look slightly plastic. To add on the Mecha style futuristic 'Knights' that are introduced feel out of place as the majority of background stories are from medieval to ancient times.

Sound (4): I have no idea why but during dialogue voices can sound far away and never does the music to a fight scene make the fight feel more intense.

Character (5): The main character receives the least time of all the characters in the series to be developed. Constantly jumping around as I referred to in story not only removes the main characters story arc from the spotlight, but also leaves you experiencing negligible emotion towards harm or danger facing characters you should care about.

Enjoyment (6): I have spoken of all these bad things but the reason enjoyment is fair and not horrendous is the adventure that is attempting to understand a story that deep down could be good if directing was done better. It has some good ideas but needs to fix pretty much everything else about it.

Overall/Conclusion (5): If I had to summarize this series in one word it would be "mediocre". This story could be good, it could have good arcs, but it falls short in the end leaving a bad taste in your mouth. Sort of like smelling an exceptionally looking prime New York Steak only to bite into it and discover it has been burnt to a crisp.
