Review of Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor
This anime started funny with it's more comical aspects at first. Later when they started to develop more characters things got deeper and the development itself was great and they managed to put comical moments there and there well. We got to know the motives and history of the characters well and why things are the way they are. Story is very slice of lifeish. Main characters are not per se looking for the thing that is the "goal of the anime?", it is rather that enemies drive them to look for it, I think. Art is great and action scenes are good though wouldhave wanted something even more action packed; ref. later in review. Sound design was ok, nothing remarkable.
This anime would have been 8 or 9 if it weren't for the more lack luster and a bit rushed ending. It was kind a disappointment that there wasn't really a good resolve and scenes just went by very quickly without without good tie ends, so episodes didn't flow smoothly. Because of this rushing we didn't see a good action packed all out battle in the end.
Badness of the ending is most likely due to the fact that studio wanted to end in action so they had to cut development in the end short to meet the 12 ep. limit. 24 episodes most probably would have solved this so they would have had time to develop things more and give us a satisfying ending.
In the end we don't know what would have happened but for this anime's score is 7,4/10, rounded to 7/10.
