I thought that is anime was really well done and put together and has solid writing and animations. Don't expect this anime to be an all time great anime because its not and I don't think it was really meant to be that. I'm pretty sure this anime was meant to be a one season thing which is why we haven't got any 2nd season. Even though this anime wont make most people's all time lists, it is a really solid anime all round! It has everything your need in a fantasy medieval anime: Good action scenes, well written characters, and drama. This anime is not horrible, and not great, but its solid and because of the simplicity of this anime I'd recommend this to anime newcomers who want to watch anime for the first time but don't want a plot that is overly complicated. Overall its a solid 8/10.

Good anime. The first few episodes are are all over the place but it gets REALLY good. Can't wait for season 2

Enjoyed this story. Story has some sidesteps to the main storyline that tie everything together.

It was a easy watch offering nothing good or bad, just a decent watch. It had a lot of potential with it's crest system of magic, but the same was not explored instead focusing on childish politics. The animation itself was decent but without a intriguing plot line I never got invested into the characters or the series.

I was initially interested in a politically complex anime, and I was decently engaged with the alliances, negotiations, and conquering of lands. The Crest system was also pretty cool.

The show does continue to build on its complexities, but unfortunately more characters become involved and there wasn't enough to compel me to continue watching for the original characters.

The main Hero Theo seems initially strong, but is very lukewarm about his main objective. His mage is supposed to help him, but she also has her own motivations, and we're not clear about that either.

By the fifth episode, the show piled on too many characters and too many plot elements, but not enough for me to care.
