Winter 2011 season for animoo is done to give way to Spring 2011. I’m just gonna give my 2 cents on some of the animoo i get to finish as of writing this post. I’m gonna try and cover Dragon Crisis for now. Yay, first attempt at giving thoughts about something you watched!
In this universe, there’re these magical artifacts with unusual powers called Lost Precious. It ain’t just limited to weaponry like a knife or a staff. Heck, it could be ANYTHING. I did get that ooommph! in the last word, right?
Now onto the characters, it focuses on yet another high school student named Ryuuji and his adventures on flipping off dragons, checkin’ out the ladies and analyzing artifacts. Actually, it’s all thanks to his cousin Eriko, a member of a Lost Precious hunting group called Seven Tails, that he got into such a situation! But he did get to form a harem thrughout. Let’s see… Rose got pettanko covered, Ojou-sama type’s throne is taken by Marga, athletic and wild’s occupied by Ai, genius glasses and Chinese dress has been researched and experimented by Bianca, Misaki got the normal, not exactly unfortunate childhood friend but rather unfortunate classmate, and Eriko’s got huuuugggeee…. tracts of land travelled! From Eagleland to the Rising Sun, yeah, that’s a lotta land to cover! š
Overall, I think it’s an ok series. When I say ok, it’s a good watch while you wait for a more epic series to come out. At least some of the characters are memorable! And i think the ending seems a bit rushed. A new record for Onyx in getting a new body and then screwing up and getting it destroyed! Maybe he ought to take lessons in increasing toughness and defense from another Onyx, though that means sacrificing some of his awesome offense! Well, if this was Monster Hunter, they can now probably make a Fatalis armor set or upgrade the Dragon Slayer Greatsword. Ahem, I kept hearing Taiga as I was watching (Yeah, Kugyuu using her Taiga voice, it’s not helpin’ she kept shouting “Ryuuji! Ryuuji!”. In any case, i’m gonna havta point out Ryuuji and Masato’s character design. Maybe it’s me but they almost look like they’re siblings or clones or something, perhaps a lost precious at work? Other than that, they have their perks and quirks.
Oh and, the ending theme,”Mirai Bowl” is kinda catchy and I think Ai should’ve gotten more screen time. š
Now that that’s done, look forward to more post thoughts and possibly spring season animoo impression!
