Preliminary (18/24 eps)
Although this was a great series, there is much to criticize about. For one, the chief character, Itsuki, does nominal developing, and is not once thought of as “Most Powerful” as you would anticipate from other series’. Instead, the series relies on the supporting characters for that feeling of triumph over the opponent. Also, the series talks much about the preceding generation of Astral mages, but not once decides to go into detail about it, which is not a good plot hole in my outlook. On top of that, it takes about half of the entire series to start getting the true experience of the story. Upon the many other things I can nitpick, my very last complaint would have to be the fact that… we didn’t learn there were any “normal” people on the entire planet until very late in the series.
This series is great, and should definitely be watched for the sake of the last episode – which is great for a finale.

.:Spoiler Warning:.
My favorite scene was the fake “Taking-off” of the eye-patch in the wedding episode. I was surprised there was nothing better than that.

Final Statement:
Definitely a series to watch if you have the patience to get over the "lack" in the beginning few episodes ~ much better than some of the other stuff out there.

If you did in fact find this review helpful, I do take value in my “Helpful” rating, so please take a moment of your time to tell me how you liked this review.
