I am quite disappointed with the direction AD took. It had much potential but got lost within it's own details. Firstly, the character design and art style were absolutely gorgeous and the animation supported those facts quite a bit. The character development was okay and some of the characters themselves were portrayed really nicely with the exception of the main hero and heroine (way to boring) There were some nice touches of fan service without distracting too much. What's more the romance counterpart of the series was quite developed even adding strong opposition from the other heroines. But unfortunately none of the latter matter since they were all downplayed by the weak plot. All in all i can say recommended if u have nothing else to watch and u like harem/action

Initially this series was set up to be extremely interesting... a high school to develop soul power which can be manifested into a weapon. However the direction this went in was focused on harem and even that was average with a cookie cutter male lead. Some of the fights are cool, but this is meant for harem fans.

It's very potential and I enjoyed it, especially fighting scenes and action. The problem is plot, which is rather shallow. Too shallow.

This anime have some potential, a shame that they have such a haste to make an anime after only one or two manga volume

A fairly interesting show although much of the deeper details are left out. A second season would go a long way to flesh out the details that was only hinted at. Still, if you have some time to burn and like fighting anime, give it a shot.

your average harem. girls with certain features, boring main character and a story not worth remembering.
watch this only if you are into harem, otherwise you will be disappointed.

This hair length is longer than what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length. Typical male hair at the back of the head which reaches the shoulders does not count as shoulder-length hair; the individual hair strands are very short (0-4 cm), and therefore count as short hair., studentA student or pupil is a learner, or someone who attends an educational institution.
