Story 7/10: Honestly story is definitely the main reason i'm watching this show. It's typical to other shounen animes but the mystery behind it is really a driving factor for my enjoyment and experience. Shinra and Arthur are genuinely 2 loveable characters along with the rest of the 8 and the season was concluded really nicely towards the end. A basic overview of this anime is it's about fire fighters dealing with 'spontaneous combustion', except there's a whole reason behind it and they're working towards saving people and finding the truth. THAT said - there is WAY TOO MUCH fan fiction, if you're into this ,all the more for it but it genuinely ruins the pacing so much when a serious scene is suddenly overcome by ecchi. At first it's funny, later on it just gets annoying, there's a time and place for it, not during a CHAD fight or a sad moment, just kills the momentum.
Art and Sound 9/10: David productions smashed it out of the park. Apart from the second opening song, the op and ed were on point and the art had no complaints at all, really well done. Also the sound of the adolla link is <3, really hits your soul XD.
Chracter Development 9/10: No complaints here at all, every character from the 8 is somehow seemingly important as another - always a good trait when it's just not the main protagonist killing everyone but it's spread out throughout all the characters, even the enemy; showing there's no black and white, but a lot of grey when it comes to their own individual personality.
Overall 8/10: Really good shounen, would've given it a 9 but the pacing really was messed up at times and serious /sad/funny moments are all just blended in, which really isn't a good thing.
