Review of La storia della Arcana Famiglia
Bujorno everyone! Now I've completed this 12 episode rip-off, I think it is now time to make a review as to how disgusted I am with this kind of anime. Ok, so the story of this rip-off thing is about a family of well-loved thugs in the island of Regalo, where it is rule by Mondo a well respected warlord - hey, I like calling him that and besides he does act like one, going back to business the island itself according to MAL's forum is constantly being invaded either by neighboring city states of Italy or criminal syndicates who wants to be thebig bosses of the island . Mondo's enforcers are composed of men in black with Arcana powers and I probably need not mention them, anyway the plot of this anime is about Mondo announcing the opening of the so called "Arcana Duello" where he will award his daughter's hand in marriage and also replace him as the "Papa" of Arcana Famiglia........or at least that's what it was suppose to be, what we have instead is a series of episode with its own plot. The mentioned genre; Action, romance, mafia and supernatural didn't lived up as to what is expected, instead this anime revolves around a reverse harem that exist between Fecita, Liberta and Nova, so for the story I'm giving a a "Poor" number 3. That's because the story doesn't apply to the anime itself instead it was poorly divided among its episode.
Art: Mediocre 5.
I'm no art critic.
Sound: Good 7.
I kind like the opening theme and I also find Felicita's voice very cute.
Character, enjoyment and overall: Poor 3
I really didn't like the way that the director of this anime wasted the talents of the characters, the director,Chiaki Kon could've used the characters potential relating to the fact that this anime has an action genre in it and the duello would have provided a nice entertainment for this anime, but alas the duello of the cast were done in the very last episode of this anime and quite frankly we audience were left hanging on the expected "Arcana Duello." In fact the character's themselves where confined to do a kind of soap opera/ adventure thingy which make the enjoyment frustrating, I really didn't like the overall of this 12 episode thingy co'z at the first episode is a teaser makes one to think that this anime is gonna be awesome, but as you go on one would wonder as to what is taking the "Arcana Duello" so long, in the end this anime has turned us audience in an "Il Matto" which means "fool" in Latin, overall this anime is a "RIP-OFF!"
