9/10
Good but not Great.
30 December 2023
The storyline is very good with creative concept. However, the characters lack definition, and there are noticeable plot holes. The main character's sudden knowledge in certain scenarios feels like a flaw (As he previously doesn't recognise them from the past i.e 1000 years ago) . Despite these shortcomings, the overall story is captivating. The animations, while normal, fail to evoke a strong emotional connection. There are missed opportunities for dramatic scenes(eg: They could have made some emotional depth to the scene where vampire queen puts her armor to protect the protagonist), making the show feel rushed and lacking depth. The production appears constrained by a limited budget, resulting in subpar and cartoonish animations. A darker, slower approach could have enhanced the overall experience. Despite its flaws, I still recommend watching it, especially for the compelling story. In conclusion, Demon Sword is a good anime with a strong narrative but suffers from poor direction and animation quality, leaving room for improvement.
