Assassins Pride

I loved this anime. I know that is a tipical story between a teen girl and a teen boy, and that is why some people hate this animé. BUT I love the graphics and the story was entertaining and I heve just wonderfull words about the anime. The story was complex, well written and full of teen love.

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.

Assassins Pride offers very little new as an anime, but that doesn't mean it can't be fun at times. At its best, this show reminds me of the early seasons of Sword Art Online, which is some of my favorite anime content of all time. The characters here are alright if not a bit underdeveloped, but I found myself caring about them when it mattered. This show's biggest flaw for me was definitely the setting/world building, as when they first introduce it it looks really interesting and cool, but very little is done from then on to expand on it. They try a little harder on the lore side, but it still never got me all that invested. Overall I think this show isn't bad, but there are definitely better anime out there with similar styles and premises.

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.

Never have I more regretted my personality quirk that won't let me quit before finishing a series.

This is the single most cliched & trite, boring and warped (in a bad way) series I've watched in quite a while. It "samples" heavily from a ton of other series / Anime (I don't want to be accused of Libel), from the main characters that look like SAO knockoffs with slight differences to a creepy vampire romance.

The "Deus ex machina" trope is so heavily abused in almost every episode it's absurd. The art is below average, the story / character development and dialog is trash. I mean what bad guy refers to his/her own "Guild" as an "eminently sinister organization..." Every chance they had to advance the story the ball was dropped, from skipping the training montage trope to bypassing critical conflict scenes (hero confront enemy, quickly cut to hero having capturing key character they skipping any good dialog that could have been slipped in.)

For those who are curious a hebephile is one attracted to those on the cusp of puberty, typically ages 12 to 14.
