Preliminary (9/12 eps)
I didn't like this show and I wouldn't want anyone to waste his/her precious time watching this. So that's why im going to review it, hopefully I'll save someone before it's too late. I'll try to be brief too.

"Dragon Crisis!"
Judjing from the title, you would think "This is going to be an exciting show, full of epic battles, firebreath, swords and flying beasts".... Think again.
If i could summarize this show in one word, it's would probably be "Dissapointing", and I'm going to tell you why, but let's start with the few good things this show has.

The Good

Art/Animation
The char designs are very well done, the backgrounds are detailed, everything looks great, the eyes are beautiful, the effects look awesome and the movement is very fluid and natural. That's it, sadly.

The Worst

The Plot
It starts quite good: Young boy (Ryouji) with unparalelled potential to use ancient relics, teams up with his sexy treasure hunting cousin, and loli millenary Dragon Queen in a journey full of mystic artifacts and epic fights (most likely involving dragons). Yeah, that would have been great,too bad that doesn't last more than one or two episodes.
Soon, what started as an "Action anime with romantic comic relief" turns into "Generic Harem (poorly done), with some short fights once in a while".
After all the "Heroines" (girls who have a romantic interest in the male lead) are intrudced, the original plot is put on hold, and replaced by filler episodes ment to create oportunities for the Heroines to show and/or develop feelings for Ryouji.

I mean, seriously, over 5 fillers in a 12 episode show?. No thanks.

The Characters
I'm not going to go into details, but at least let me tell you this: They are as generic as they can get. Dull and predictable are their most outstanding features. You could guess everything about them, just by looking at the official poster. It's a shame that you will never be shocked by the character's actions or speech.

So, In My Humble Oppinion:
*If you are looking for an action/adventure show, Dragon Crisis doesn't have enough fights.
* If you are looking for a comedy harem show, Dragon Crisis isn't funny enough.
* If you are looking for a drama harem show, Dragon Crisis isn't serious or intresting enough.

* If you are looking for a show with undefined plot and "mass produced" characters, Dragon Crisis might just be what you are looking for.

I wish that you found the information you were looking for in this review.
