I'm playing the game while watching the animation just to compare them and the two can't even be compared. The reason for the 5 on the story is that the anime feels so rushed. I know it is 24 episodes but they could have filled those episodes with the "conversations" the protagonist has with various characters from the anime. And worse, the animators just keep killing off the various characters that I find interesting like Otome who loves teasing Makoto about her "crush" on the protagonist, Joe who is so whimsical, it makes the gameplay fun, and Keita who is such a lone wolf he is funny. Not only that, some characters are so out of OOC like Yamato who is cynical and sarcastic instead of being a total grunting guy, Fumi who is suppose to be crazy, and the protagonist who is suppose to be cool instead of a normal guy. The biggest fail is the character deaths because each character is awesome with a lot put into them so killing them off with no character development is just stupid, especially considering the fact that fans of the game will definitely watch this and will hate it for destroying their hopes. The fight scenes are too short and superficial, and the characters don't seem to be able to learn demon powers, which is a turn-off. The graphics and animation itself is good but that can only improve the anime by so much. All in all, not really satisfying but watch it if you like.
