Review of Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor
Rokudenashi Majutsu Koushi to Akashic Records, or Akashic Records in short, is one of the must watch anime this season. Why? Read on to find out. We also get a healthy dose of action and romance in Akashic Records, and it packs a solid punch. The anime is adapted from a light novel of the same name and it also has a manga adaptation which is pretty great. The story is pretty generic but enjoyable. In a fantasy world, where mages still exist, we get to see the goof ups and adventures of the extremely lazy but immensely capable Glenn Radars. He starts as a part timeteacher in the school and the story follows from there.
The Art is superb! I just love it! The sound on the other hand is kinda okay, and while the OP doesn't strike as anything remarkable to me, I love the ED!
As for the characters, Akashic Records does a fantastic job. Glenn is easily my number one fav character this season. His comical yet serious nature, his antics, his courage and his love for his students & friends are immensely enjoyable. The other characters, especially, Rumia is also interesting. Her nerve of steel is appreciable. Sistine(the best girl ofc) does her job well portraying a cute girl and a lovable student. She's a tsundere, but a good one. She is powerful, like real powerful and supports Glenn. Re=L, the other girl is an interesting character. I'd like to spoil, but won't and I can say that she'll have a strong fandom after the series ends.
The other characters, Celica, Albert and the Queen plays side roles albeit important ones. I found Leos to be hateable enough as I don't like third wheels at all.
Overall, I'd pretty much suggest anyone to watch Akashic Records if you're a fan of comedy and action genres. The characters, the story, everything is just too good. Watch it, you won't regret. And also don't forget to read the manga(it's a shame that it's still behind the anime tho).
As a parting shot, Sisti(Shiro Neko) is totally the best girl! Don't agree with me? I don't care, lol.
