Seikoku no Dragonar

There was *some* potential for this series, but I think it's been overstated in other reviews. The main characters start off being interesting, and the setting is somewhat generic but passable. However, after watching the show it quickly becomes obvious that any potential is buried deep underneath a pile of fan service, generic anime tropes, and overall terrible writing. Idk about the source material, but the show managed to annoy me every few minutes; there is basically no explanation or self-consistency for the magic, things just get resolved randomly, and the plot drags on aimlessly at times. Story: 4 The characters are forgettable. After re-watching the first few episodes, all I could think about is how predictable and one-dimensional they are (not to mention dumb at times). It's like everything I hate about bad shounen characters and harem characters rolled into one. Character: 2 But this is an ecchi/comedy, so what about that? Well, while ecchi is heavily emphasized, I don't think it's an excuse for the plot and characters being so insufferable. As for comedy, most of it came from the main character being embarrassed that naked girls keep on throwing themselves at him. The art is average, and doesn't make up for the show's failure in other respects. Art & Sound: 5 In the end, I think this show only succeeds as an ecchi, and an OK one at that. When the story and characters only detract from the titillation, there's obviously something wrong. Enjoyment & Overall: 3

The first part isn't so bad ( grade 4/10 ), but as it is a copy of the basic introduction of harem story that normal. Once the anime began the real part of the story, it become really bad. Characters lost all their logic ( the tsundere ( which represent half of the female characters ) became docile in lot of scene without any reason), and the worst caracter ( the elf ) become a principal one during a long arc. The story is full of random stereotype scene, badly done without any surprise except that boobs grow more and more. To be honest, I had to do something else during the second part of the anime as it was really boring. Even the plot twists are badly done, not even suprising, and they have noone real impact on the story, making them totally useless and free. When the anime try something new, that is really confuse for something supposed to be simply to explain ( All "kidnapping" and hostage episodes ). It could be a better anime if it had passed the useless scene fast instead of focus on them ( All bathpassages ). Noone feeling come from the anime. It is just bland. To finish, the fight aren't dynamic, and the contract with dragon is really a bad thing, making the fight, again, really confuse ( "invocation-crafting" scene duration is most important that the real time of the fight, during the time the opponent could destroy 3 cities )

[Portuguese-BR] Meu estilo de anime favorito, onde o protagonista estuda em uma escola de magia ou quase isso com bastante lutas e cenas "empolgantes". O que eu mais gostei do anime foi sua história em si, pois eu achei muito parecido com alguns outros animes. Mas acho que deveria ter mais animes nesse estilo. Ash Blake, um menino que "sacrificou" sua vida para salvar uma menina e foi salvo pela mãe dos dragões (se não me engano, foi ela), que gostou da atitude do menino ao salvar a menina. A menina que foi salva mais é revelada mais para frente no anime, porém Ash não se lembra de nada da queles dias pelo visto. E agora ele vive na Academia Ansarivan Dragonar, que todos os estudantes são mestres de dragões, e Ash Blake ainda não conseguiu despertar seu dragão. O então chamado "garoto problema" pois se envolve em muitos problemas quando falam de seu "parr" que é o nome dado ao dragão. Ash tem um talento, que é montar em qualquer dragão, até dragões divinos. Outras pessoas ao tentarem montar em outros dragões que não são seus, podem acabar feridos, pois o dragão não deixa. Quando Ash "desperta" o seu dragão, ele vêm com outra forma, sim a forma de um Humano. Sortudo, seu dragão vem em forma humana uma bela jovem com cabelos cor de rosa e Lolicon. O legal do anime é que tem muitas cenas ecchi, em alguns casos parecendo até um verdadeiro Hentai, com muitos tentaculos. Ao meu ver o anime poderia ter uma segunda temporada tranquilo pois deixou muitas coisas em aberto. Pena não ser tão simples assim Observando minhas preferencias ao assistir um anime, eu não deveria gostar desse anime por ter muito clichê, como a personalidade do protagonista, e as antagonistas. Mas a história ficou muito boa e me atraiu muito. Recomendo muito, assistam! [English-EUA] My favorite anime style, where the protagonist studies in a school of magic or almost this with enough fights and scenes "exciting". What I liked the most about anime was its history itself, because I found it very similar to some other anime. But I think I should have more animes in that style. Ash Blake, a boy who "sacrificed" his life to save a girl and was saved by the mother of the dragons (if I'm not mistaken, it was her), who liked the boy's attitude in saving the girl. The girl who was saved more is revealed later in the anime, however Ash does not remember anything of those days apparently. And now he lives at Ansarivan Dragonar Academy, that all students are masters of dragons, and Ash Blake still can not wake his dragon. The so-called "problem boy" because he gets involved in many problems when they talk about his "parr" which is the name given to the dragon. Ash has a talent, which is riding on any dragon, up to divine dragons. Other people in trying to ride on other dragons that are not theirs may end up injured, as the dragon will not let it. When Ash "awakens" his dragon, he comes in another form, rather the form of a Human. Lucky, his dragon comes in human form a beautiful young woman with pink hair and Lolicon. The cool thing about the anime is that it has a lot of ecchi scenes, in some cases looking like a real Hentai with lots of tentacles. In my view the anime could have a quiet second season because it left many things open. Too bad it's not as simple as that. Observing my preferences when watching an anime, I should not like this anime because it has a lot of cliché, like the personality of the protagonist, and the antagonists. But the story was very good and attracted me a lot. Highly recommend, watch!

Such potential, but it all fell rather flat. Who doesn't like dragons? Who wouldn't love a dragon to call their own? As a male, who wouldn't give their left arm to be bonded to a dragon who was a cute girl especially when you had a pretty good idea how she would grow up? I was surprised this was a ecchi/pseudo-harem, but then I seem to be drawn to them. Meh, it's a living. Everything but one major plot point was resolved by the last episode, but it seemed like they rushed to just throw in the resolution. That was rather disappointing. That being said; by the numbers. Story: The first episode made me want to watch, and I was willing to forgive the rather elementary school presentation in the hopes that it would pick up the gauntlet that it threw down with the premise, and kick some butt. That didn't happen, but I'm a fan of the service, and there was plenty of that. I was surprised by just how ecchi this was, and if there had been a few more pixels revealed it could have been hentai easily. Maybe that would have made the story-lite presentation better, but I was left wanting more in the way of development. 6 Art: It's anime, so I'm a fan of the art, and the vistas were beautiful, the cities fantastic and detailed, as were the outfits, and the girls were sexy. Somebody does need to get the potential warrior males in anime to grab a protein shake, and hit the gym once in a while though. Honestly, The ladies are drawn so I can see each muscle group, and the pleasant hint and jiggle of avoirdupois in all the right places, but I can count the number of male biceps I've seen in almost all anime on one hand. Of course, I'm not counting the super saiyans and monster men out there; just the average warriors in training. Help me artiste; you're our only hope. 8 Sound: I usually like the OP and ED songs in anime, and have downloaded many that I listen to while driving, but these two were pretty forgettable if not nearly unlistenable. I love bubblegum pop, but these songs even embarrassed me. As for the ambience music throughout; there was nothing remarkable, or notable. 4 Character: Yes. Next! Okay, to elucidate; the characters had just enough to prove they were indeed written as human beings except for the dragons; they were written as dragons. At least the dragons had some depth of character. The humans could've been replaced by poster boards with smiley faces on them. In my never to be humble opinion, this is where the genre falls flattest. You can't make a real character truly "real" to the viewer with 23 minutes times 12 episodes even if there were an OVA, or at least it appears fairly rare. 4 Enjoyment: I wanted to, and tried to enjoy this. If it was just for the fan service, I would give this a 9 or 10. All I could say was "what potential". Too formulaic. I would've dropped this, but I loved Eco (the MC's dragon). Cute as a button, and feisty as a fighter pilot just before lighting the afterburner. Just the way I like my tsunderes. She reminds me of my daughter who I love dearly. Not that way; you perv! Which both Eco and my daughter are fond of saying. I'm also a sucker for a poorly written love story. 5 Overall: I could have lowered each rating by one or two points, but there was just so much potential for a good series that I didn't have the heart, and the hope of it improving kept me clicking to the next episode. Pretty much a solid C in execution. 6

at first i was like the story is good but as the show goes on it makes you wonder. it is a good story for the most part the ending i would have to say is by far not good. the amount of emotion struggle some of the relationships contain is just downright pathetic its has a harem like structure to it. big boobs everywhere and every ep the sexual references but besides that overall enjoyness would be like a 7.4 its good but it has the potential to be so much more. while your watching it does not leave anything really as a mystery you can clearly tell whats going on whos who and whats about to happen i still enjoyed the watch though and hope that the next season they will out due themselves

I'm a fan of harem, horror, ecchi and more adult oriented Anime. Blood, gore. Occasionally I'll watch some cutsie stuff to break things up. Heck, I photograph cosplay for a couple of Anime cons, so I'll watch some Anime just to become familiar with the characters. This anime, while mildly entertaining, left a lot to be desired. All the anime budget was blown on overly-bounce-able boobs and bizarre Hentai tentacle inspired scenes that were 100% out of place here. When there were battle scenes or gigantic dragons, it looked like someone drew a single cell then moved it around the screen. I really am getting tired of these cookie cutter characters. Every Anime now seems to have a generic German chick, Russian babe, English Aristocrat and so on. Variations of that are here. Of course there's the ditz that has to run around in her bra and panties for no discernible reason except to make the generic clueless boy hero uncomfortable. Don't get me wrong - humorous sexual tension can be laugh-out-loud funny (I loved Shimonetta) - here they were just idiotic. Yea, I watched all 12 episodes. A had already finished up Gangsta, Gate, God Eater, Prison School, Assassination Classroom and many others and needed something to satisfy my Anime craving. It was good enough for that. Unlike Elfen Lied or Deadman Wonderland, I'd never watch this series again.

This anime is overall ok if you aren’t big on constant action,but if you are then don’t watch it gets stale here and there. The characters aren’t bad and a good amount of them are actually barable if you know what I mean. I started watching this anime with no idea of what it was about,and I say it’s pretty good if you looking for an anime that doesn’t reach to far into much catagorys besides romance yeah there is a lot of romance. So overall I recommend if you are ok with no constant action and romance. Also the story is ok.

So ill first say that this anime is WAY better than having a 6.75 rating i think people say it has all the cliche that a anime would have honestly it does but for me it was good and some people need too learn from that cliche of anime sometimes also ill say if you dont like tentacle parts or boobs just shoved in your faces than yeah dont watch Story: so the story pretty much starts with ash blake who is a future dragon master but the reasons have show en that he isn't up too that par yet because he hasn't even showing up yet after all that time well that's until now (at the end of episode 1 so sorry for that little spoiler) the dragon ends up being a girl but she isnt her true from cause over time she will be but wont spoil anything else Art: art was very good some people knack on this for the art when the hell did art matter too people Sound: now the OP and the ED were ok nothing id download cause they were meh too me everything else was good Characters: now with this at first i never really cared for Eco and Silvia but as the anime went on i liked them otherwise i liked all the characters nothing wrong with them at all Enjoyment: so yes i did enjoy this anime it did seem more of a slice of life than a real action anime but i liked this anime form the comedy too the action them both were very good Overall: im giving this a 8 yes it was that good the comedy was very good and the action of what there was of it was actually pretty good again people knack on this anime for DUMB reasons dont let the 6.75 rating fool you this anime was good and id so recommend this anime
