though it is undeniable that you would absolutely fall in love with the characters' looks and personality, i can not say the same with this anime's story line. aside from the numerous cliches present - last survivor or descendant of some known tribe, giving up your dreams because of friendship, tragic past, best friends turned mortal enemies, revenge, rekindling lost ties with your estranged friends (hell yes, you can find all these and more!); fight scenes and techniques that defy all laws of nature, chemistry, and physics are also present. series of events get pretty much predictable which makes watching it boring. if not for ginji's ubber cuteness, obvious juubei-kazuki yaoi hints, and some dose of humor every now and then, i do not think i would be able to bear finishing the total of 49 episodes. soundtrack is not bad, though not really remarkable. furthermore, i have noticed that the recurring theme is the characters' past catching up on them (definitely not a good example since i do not believe in letting yourself being imprisoned by your memories), and believe me, it gets tiresome after being exposed to it episode after episode. i do not hate this anime though, it is just i am rather disappointed since it appeared to be very promising. anticipating ban's use of evil eye has become my habit the whole time.
RATING: 3 out of 5.
