Story

Erm, basically there’s not much problem with the story… The plot is there, but the problem is how to elaborate the story.

When I’m watching this series, I always feel that there is something wrong with it…  but I just couldn’t express it in words.

overall, quite weak…

I’ll have it rated: 23/40

Animation

Studio:Artland

Year: 2006

Type: Series

Decent animated, but gosh… most important scenes are poor animated… especially a scene in the first episode, the fake-looking explosion gave me a bad impression… not to mention about some horrible animated magical battle scenes…

Overall, just so-so…

I’ll have it rated: 15/30

Poor OP… the opening animation is the worst.. haihz.. I always skip the Opening part.. straight away…

I prefer the Ending song.. a lot better than the opening.. both song and animation…

BGM seems to be… erm… childish a bit.. nothing special…
