The story is predictable. There were some memorable bits but the predictability of it made it somewhat boring. The art is well done, special effects were brought out really nicely and characters look great. The fights were also very well exhibited. The anime was visually appealing and the sound effects were great.
Most of the characters are fine except Ayano Kannagi. Oh god, never was I so angered by a female protagonist. She is the sole reason I dropped Kaze No Stigma. Ayano is an ungrateful, egoistic, barbaric and rude girl on a short fuse. She does not think of the bigger picture and does not have her priorities right. She can lash out at her allies during dangerous situations for the smallest reasons and is headstrong. She constantly lands herself and people around her in precarious situations expecting help to come from nowhere. She never reflects on herself and blames every bad thing that happens on others. She does not think before she acts and I hate how there will always be someone who cleans up the mess she makes which causes her to be extremely spoiled. Someone with such a repulsive personality would've died a few times over in the real world. And no one would ever feel sad that she died.
