Alderamin on the Sky

After watching this anime I liked it pretty much. I even wanted a second season. But the sad thing is after knowing the story from LN I don't think it will get second season. Even I am pissed it had so much potential but made the ending trash broken heart of all the fans. But if you nonly watch anime then go for it. I recommend.

This show is amazing, if you can accept what it is. The strategy that the main character comes up with, will make you think that it was written by Eisenstein. The show has little comedy, almost zero romance, but it has great characters and , like said before, brilliant strategy.

Watch the first two episodes. They will give you the perfect idea of what this show is all about.

Pros: The animation, the music, all is nice. A pleasure to watch.

Meh: The story itself revolves around a war or two, with important background information being thrust forward as needed.

Cons: The one "genius" is always right and the story revolves around him. Similar to Death Note. He's just a magical character that basically always wins. Hard to feel for him though, so the wins feel empty.

Conclusion: Overall it is a decent anime, a good watch, and nicely done, but you're not missing anything if you do not see it. Otoh, if you like anime, it's not something you'd regret watching either.

"Alderamin on the Sky" is a truly underrated masterpiece that deserves more recognition. With two amazing seasons, this show is a must-watch for anyone who loves thoughtful and engaging anime. The first season starts off strong and sets the stage for a captivating story, but its finale does fall a bit short in comparison to the rest of the series. However, the second season more than makes up for it with its intense plot, well-developed characters, and breathtaking animation. Overall, "Alderamin on the Sky" is a hidden gem that is definitely worth checking out for fans of the war and action genre."

Why is it anime's of this quality rarely get a 2nd season?

From a humble beginning in the first episode a small group of friends and strangers are thrown together by a twist of fate. Over the next 12 episodes (total of 13) we see them grow, overcome obstacles and learn the brutal truths of war and adulthood.

Pros:

• Fairly unique characters and modulations.
• Solid character growth.
• Good core story arc.
• Quality and consistent animation.
• Well done score.
• A couple surprising twists.
• Perfect English dubbing.

Cons:

• No 2nd season to date.

Although the characters and story is akin to a few other anime's out there Alderamin is the best I've seen of this "style" and I'd love to see more.

It falls into Fantasy and Military History genre's.
