The Kingdoms of Ruin (Serie de TV)

The beginning is good, but not amazing. The more you get into the story, the worse it gets. For me 1 star is almost to much. I've seen some animes, I don't consider an expert, because I am not, but to have 10 episodes (so far) with almost 16-18 minutes per episode...this is straight up BS. For me, it means only one thing: "I am a writer, I have only a couple of ideas, let's see how much can I go with those episodes in order to increase my viewership, because I am lacking of more imagination." Fun fact, there are animes with 30min per episodes with Seasons, alright? And there are better at storytelling than most of the nowadays movies. Think about it.

To be fair, I don't know where the story wants to go. At this point its just a waste of time.

This started in a promising manner. You see some gruesome deaths and are led to believe this will be a gnarly tail of revenge that leaves you hanging on the edge of your seat.

Then they make no attempt to develop the characters in any way shape or form and the whole series dialogue could be summed up as;

"hey, i don't know who you are but I'm gonna revenge ya" "Ohh hey, you have nothing to do with my plot? Well, guess i better revenge you anyway" "innaniment object in my field of view? Ohh you better believe that's a revenging"

The characters end up with as many dimensions as a singular point in space (math joke) and are so poorly written it makes you wonder if the writer is just throwing his (or Her, or it, no need to cancel me) 12vie angst in our face and passing it off as art.

"Huurrr duurrr REVENGE!" That's it. Extremely bad decisions one after the other.

5 episodes in. What a complete dumb waste of time. Protagonist appears to have an IQ in the 50's. Witches can only talk and die. Humanity is out of resources but has unlimited resources. I feel bad for the artists and voice actors. What a great premise with an adult rating. What a waste of time for all involved...

I used to think that an adult anime with decent production was impossible to screw up. Yet here we are. Unnecessary long fights. REALLY DUMB decision making from every character. Mages, soldiers, space, violence, what could go wrong?!? Really bad writing.

Honestly at the beginning it was boring but once you got to the middle it was not bad. The beginning was slow and boring with descent visuals. Once your mid way it actually starts to draw you in. Explaining the world and everyone's emotions about it. Though the characters are very one one dimensional which isn't not plus. Though the story line towards the end seems to get really interesting. Which makes me think it has promise.

Good emotional anime to teach about letting go of one overwhelming emotion. That and just something to watch. At the very least its better than most TVs shows out there now. Not everything has to be a 10/10.

This is some excellent "so bad, it's good" material. It is tough to take seriously since it is so incredibly edgy. It's funny because the (many) tragic scenes are absurdly extravagant. It seems like the show was written by a child who was taken straight out of an Xbox voice chat for Call of Duty.

There aren't many characters in this that you will like. The protagonist assaults others for incredibly trivial motives. The empire, our adversarial force, is committing genocide because, well, they're nasty. If someone watched this and all they took away was that it's edgy and all the subtlety is lost, then it sounds a lot like a certain megahit series with a wicked protagonist seeking retribution on the world for genocide. Kingdoms of Ruin is a great comedy even if it has rapidly established itself as absolutely awful television.
