Rokka no Yuusha

What starts off as a normal adventure and mission in normal fantasy story soon turns out to a dispute resolution for the episodes 4-12. There is actually no mission, no forward story to defeat the demon god.

Its weird in a way, it seems the whole story of defeating the demon god comes to a halt when a dispute breaks out between the chosen ones and then they just keep going back and forth running mind games and numerous scenarios.

This series is suited for someone with identity crisis, its more like a personal reflection and morality based story rather than adventure.

Also there is a girl with swamp super power. I literally meant it, they control the swamps by puking out what ever they eat. Don't ask me, apparently that's a super power in this anime.

Its a hilarious series, so I kept forwarding the anime every so often when I saw it was a drag.

Initially a common story, a great evil appears, an unusual hero that leads to the final struggle and victory of humanity. However, in the first episodes he shows what he came for, placing more unusual heroes in the middle of history, and instead of converting to fights he runs away from the pattern in the middle of an enigma, reminding the famous enigma of the prisoner, very well controlled with a surprise to the Final. Unfortunately still waiting for the next season.

Pros: It's anime and has fantasy elements with some could-be-decent background story.

Meh: Characters are two-dimensional, it was obvious from the beginning who the fake was.

Con: Characters are ugly, fighting scenes make no sense, story is forced.

The basic story is a bad guy is coming, 6 good guys are chosen automatically and must show up at a certain point, but 7 people show up. After that the story is simply a poorly done whodunnit. After everything is figured out the season ends, so there is no real fight shown.

Conclusion: It's watchable, so if you're really bored it may be worth it. Otherwise, don't bother.

So basically it's about a red haired guy who overthinks that he's **it hot and meets an annoying bunny girl who just can't stop talking.

Yeah I don't care what anyone else says but honestly the whole first episode made me go zz

The main plot of the anime centers around the "Rising Daemon Lord" trope which is nothing new (but often entertaining) followed by a mystery.

The unique art, regional/cultural backdrop (Central / South American, Pre-Colombian), protagonists and their limitations mix pretty well with the storytelling creating an interesting world.

However the final minutes of episode 12 guts the series, killing the investment in the characters with a botched hook/ending.

All in all it's the animation and part of the story makes it a worthwhile background watch if you've got empty space in your catalog and I'd watch a 2nd season just to see if they could redeem the horrible ending.

Pros:

• Atypical local / backdrop.
• Good animation.
• Above average English Dubbing.
• Very limited and subtle "Fan Service".

Cons:

• No 2nd season.
• Predictable.
• Not a fan of the Assassins voice (English Dubbing).
• Storytelling could be better.
• Dark horse character's outfit is ridiculous.
• Terrible ending "hook".
