[CONTAINS SPOILERS]
I was so pissed by the end of this anime... I am still pissed (therefore I'm writing my first review on MAL).
So, we have Chizuru, a girl that is looking for her missing father and end up with a bunch of guys that want to kill her and then they just don't want anymore; you must think "They realized her value and decided to keep her"... The only thing she does is TEA. One could make a whole movie containing the parts where she states "Excuse me, here's your tea". And then they start to take her to missions and stuff for her to help the wounded... As the daughter of a doctor you think she would actually take care of them but most of the time she does nothing, and when she does it's just offering a tissue to maybe stop the bleeding...
At some point she just ignores the fact that her father is still missing. Years pass by and they don't even mention it anymore.
Now that we have established that Chizuru does nothing, we have Hijikata who, out of nowhere, for no obvious reason just falls in love with her by the last episode of this second season. You must remember now that this is an anime based off an otome game, so it's expected that THERE SHOULD BE ROMANCE, but it doesn't. Two seasons and the only actual romance that comes along appears in the last episode. But the guys are hot, tho.
As I mentioned, it's supposed to be an otome game, but all the characters start dying. LET ME PUT IT STRAIGHT: THERE'S NO ROMANCE AND THEY DIE. ALL OF THEM. In the last episode Hijikata says that he wants to live to be with Chizuru forever, and 10 minutes later HE DIES TOO. Horrible. Appaling. Outrageous. 2 seasons, nothing happens, everybody dies. That's it.
I get that this is a historic anime, that the characters are based off real people and they all died in real life, but they included FUCKING DEMONS so WOULD IT BE TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR THEM TO KEEP AT LEAST ONE CHARACTER ALIVE???
Save your time. Save yourself. Go look for another thing to watch.
