And here, too, little has changed. I honestly found the finale relatively creative in terms of the visually individual flow. But everything along the way, this was a purely generic fantasy/action anime with no real highlights or standouts. Even though I honestly found the rampage of Mikaele relatively interesting. In a better anime series, that scene could have really shined. But yet again, I found the scene really refreshing and appealing.
[Story 4]
The events of the first season continue, of course with the same deep-seated low quality. And no, that doesn't mean the animation.
The author still tried to pick up so many different concepts and couldn't do any of them justice, making the story feel like a mediocre action game from 2001. Including all the melodramatic aspects that were so popular back then.
[Characters 3]
I at least like the approach that they tried to make something out of Guren, despite everything he has been my favorite among the characters. To see what else the author has created with him, I'll just have to look into the manga. Nothing really happened in the anime itself. And he is clearly the best character.
The remainder were still cannon fodder, the stereo type group of the protagonist. And the Qlique of evil vampires. I liked them thanks to their style and appealing character. Unfortunately, none of them were convincing until the end of the second season. Especially not the guy with the bow who fires 2 arrows per season.
[Animations 6] Above average and satisfactorily done for an action based series after all. It had especially 2 moments of brilliance, like the fight between Mikaele and the demon hunter squad. Also the animations around the king of salt.
However, this also held enough within limits to not expect too much. I'm glad that at least a satisfactory amount of visual entertainment was offered.
[Music 5]
The outro is just about average, though. intro on the other hand is bad, both visually and musically nothing more than a cheap intro. I would have expected this level of music in any rom-com school novel.
The Osts, on the other hand, had some quality, especially the "King of Salt" theme has some recognition value.
Conclusion
Owari no Seraph is not a bad anime, but it falls just short of average quality. It's a collection of various ideas, with no real content or creativity enclosed within. The show just drags on and on before your eyes until the end.
However, for simple entertainment it's more than good enough, at least I can't say that I was bored to death.
