Assassins Pride

This anime series is set in a world where some people have magical powers. Those that do form the noble families and children are expect to start developing their powers in their early teens. Melida Angel has so far shown no sign of developing powers and her father suspects she may not be his daughter. He has hired Kufa Vampir to act as her tutor and if she fails to manifest any powers he is to kill her. He doesn't follow his instructions; instead he gives some of his power giving mana to her enabling her to show powers... the only problem is that she isn't the class she should be so must hide her class. Over the course of the series Kufa, Melida, and school mates will face a variety of tests and dangers.

This is a solid enough fantasy anime; it might not stand out in this crowded genre but it passes the time nicely and has some good ideas. As things get dangerous towards the end the tension rises nicely. The characters are pretty good so it is easy to care for them in these perilous situations. The animation is pretty good and the character designs suitably distinctive. Overall a decent enough series which fans of the genre should enjoy.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

The anime has an interesting setting, in which those of high social status live better than those below them (No Brainer) and all live within these domes where malevolent creatures are a threat. I enjoy the fact that our female protagonist has an internal conflict to deal with in the beginning of the anime, and later has both internal and external, as she bonds ever so slightly to her instructor.

I rate this an 8/10 because it has a great opening and ending music. The colors are beautiful and portray the characters in an appropiate manner. The anime is by no means boring, as event after event lead our protagonists to become closer. It is to be taken seriously but is not afraid to liven up the audience here and there so long as it is the time to do so. And it is a great story and a getaway from current mainstream anime.

I really can't bring myself watching another episode of this romance based love story with a few not interesting fights. The powers and abilities are ultra boring and the story well it just boring asf. The setting is really well put in episode 1m liked the setting but dear god its get boring just after 3 episodes. I really dont want to do this anime harm but i cant bring myself not to write this review. a 4 outt of 10 seems a really good number.

This series was great, it had an interesting plot and good development of character. I hope they make another season so we can see how Melida's strength grows. Her instructor is also super cool, more intense battles further on will be quite interesting.

This anime has a lot of story potential, and it has a lot of original stuff to it. The problem with it was how the story was exceuted, and how the other characters besides Melida, Kufa, Rosetti, and Elli were presented. Other than that, it's not as bad as people say it is.
