The Dawn of the Witch · review
Even though this anime is actually a spin-off of "Grimoire of Zero" which I haven't seen yet, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Story was quite interesting, but a bit confusing at times as well. Sometimes the plot moved slowly and then picked up the pace signficantly so I lost track of what was going on. Well to tell you the truth, the plot was mostly driven by characters involved in it, in my opinion. The three main characters Sayb, Hort and Kuddo are all very likeable. Of the three I liked Kuddo the most. He was very level-headed and had such humourous reactions to different situations theyfound themselves in. On the surface, Sayb is a bit bland as a protagonist, but he does progress alongside the plot.
Art is mostly good, it is not anything special, but thankfully it is consistent. There are many still shots though so if you want a show with amazing animation this one isn't for you. Also, CGI is used repeatedly, but it was fine to me.
Soundtracks used in this show weren't innovative or epic, but they served their purpose. Its opening song, however, might be one of my favourites in all anime even though some people find it generic.
To end this short review, this was a satisfactory seasonal show. I definitely do not regret spending time watching it.
