Here, we face your typical harem anime. Normally, I put them down the moment I notice it's barely going very far from the genre, but I had faith. The first episode of this anime opened alright, with our male lead being pretty confident through the typical "accidental" situations you're used to in these anime. Take those quotations strongly, because every veteran harem fan knows why I put them there. Nothing is ever an accident in harems to the females.
Because of how rough this anime is to me, I don't even want to talk about it very much, because it barely does anything different from another harem, but I am a bit upset it has such a high score on this website, so I want to make sure it gets a strong amount of negativity somewhere for the more innocent anime viewer who will believe it is…

Already imagine how this anime turns into? Well if you guess it will be a harem, yeah it is, with lolis and kawaii characters everywhere.
But don't worry for the ecchi-ness contents, it isn't too much and this anime is not a waste for your time.
The story centers around Kazehaya Kamito--the hero-who is the candidate of The Demon Lord in a world where spirit can only controlled by pure maidens. Those maidens are studying at Areishia Spirit Academy which purpose is to educate them to be an Elementalist. The storyline is quite difficult to resume and if I try to resume it, I'm afraid that it'll be just a spoiler for those who haven't watched it yet. So this far my brief explanation for the story.
Next, I will start to give my interpretation. According to somewhat complicated storyline, the…

Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance
This anime wasn't have a fantastic story that can make you hold breath during the show, but what makes me can still enjoy this anime..??.
First character, character development in this anime is very nice, indeed not too influential to story, and so many tsundere character in this anime, but character in this anime have a charm of its own. and my favorite is Terminus Est and Ellis Fahrengart.
Terminus Est is the best girl in this anime, loli who always melting situation, she is reported as a powerful sword spirit known as a demon slayer, she sometimes put a chocolate in her body and ask Kamito to lick it, and she is always naked but she doesn't want to take off her kneesocks, pervert indeed but her childish personality which makes she is interesting.
Ellis a…

Light novel adaptions are a weird thing. Sometimes they’re incredibly rushed by trying to put so much information into so little time. Sometimes they're incredibly slow and take their time, doing absolutely nothing interesting in their time span. I came into Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance knowing this, without having any high expectations for the show. Did my moderate expectations bring disappointment? No, not quite, but Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance certainly didn’t completely live up to them.
Blade Dance takes place in a world where humans can become spirit contractors that use “spirits” for things such as battling. However, only young girls can become spirit contractors. As such, an academy exists for these young, special ojousamas to train and sharpen their abilities as a spirit contrac…

Story:
Where to start with this story... Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance tells the story of a special young man named Kazehaya Kamito (the only reason I know his name is because every freaking character whines his name at least a dozen times every episode).
Kamito lives in a magical world where wealthy members of society send their daughters to some school with other girls to master the art of contracting spirits for some reason. These spirits are used to fight each other for no particular purpose. The contracted spirits come in many forms, from elemental spirits to golems to even the MC, who, by the way, also happens to be the successor to the demon lord, because of course he is.
Long story short, and without going into any potential spoilers, a kawaii red-headed animu grill for some re…

Describing this one of many shows that "the anime industry spits out every season" is somewhat of an injustice. You will find there is a lot more to Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance than your everyday harem series.
Plot:
This is an anime primarily about fighting and magic-wielding, which is nothing new, but it is more than enough to keep you interested for 12 episodes. The other main theme is harem/romance. What this show does well is prevent the two themes from conflicting with each other and therefore the plot feels serious yet the romance is sweet and entertaining, and compliments the story well as a form of comic relief. However, I feel like a lot of important plot elements involving the characters' pasts are poorly explained, possibly due to being only 12 episodes long. This is the type…

I just started in MAL in the end month of 2014 so I am not yet literally adept in making sensible or top notch reviews yet but I will continue to write anime review as much as possible. I have watched more than 200+ anime series over the pass decade so I want to speak up what I can say about anime series, movies, ova and special up to date.
Anime Series Review No.2
This is going to be my 2nd anime series review since my first review is the anime series black bullet which is good anime but not worth to mention or a recommendation. Seirei Tsukai No Blade Dance a anime series adapted from a light novel series which it's plot revolved around the quest of the main male protagonist in achieving his goal in the tournament called "Blade Dance" where he wants his own wish to be granted.

It's been awhile I haven't done a review so I decided why not, fair warning this review is only for the anime I won't included aspect from the LN. I know alot of you won't like it, but stick with me ok, I'm a bit rusty.
Anyways Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance doesn't seem like an all out series, but for those who don't know this is all just the prologue, the actual story doesn't happen until a bit further on. But again I won't be getting into that, just saying for those who came from the LN and starting to watch this, don't expect anything to great from it, anyways I'm prolonging now let me just get started, cause no one cares about introduction.
Story: 6
So this story is obviously that of a fantasy, includes magic, Demon Lords (Maou), and knights. These "magicians" aren't refer to mages li…

This is like a small remake of Zero no Tsukaima in a different time.
The anime overall is good, though its not because the story is so amazingly captivating. I feel that the story is the weakest part of the series. Its kind of meh, girls with magical powers that summon stuff that fights for them. Unique isn't it?
The most I like from this anime is how similar Claire is to Louise. But this requires you to have already watched or watching Zero no Tsukaima and also like it in order to like this one. IMO, this is the good part of the anime with the bitchy-spoiled girls that act like they own the world, but are all in denial and love about the "special guy".
I kind of dig the male lead. More or less. He isn't weak in character and he doesn't get trashed by stupidity or sheer embarrassment. T…

I was pleasantly surprised by this one and it's quite a shame that it seems like it won't be getting a second season as lots of plot points are left unresolved. If you really value having closure and you are not willing to read on I would avoid this one, you will find no closure here.
What we have seen so far of the plot is not particularly complicated. Kamito Kazehaya is a boy who can utilise magical powers that usually only girls can use. He attends an otherwise all female school and has a shady past.
This one is another good example of how to properly execute having a story alongside being an ecchi show. Lots of shows usually can’t get the balance between these factors down and end up being heavily weighted in one direction or another. This is not the case here and I can safely say th…

This review will not have any spoilers(I'll try not too) and will just be me explaining on how I like/dislike the anime. The first thing I will talk about is the story. It is in the supernatural genre with the character controlling spirits with a contract. The story is good, but I did not like the ending as much since it left me on a cliffhanger. If you would want to see what happens next, you would have to read the manga or hope that they will make another season at some point, which isn't a high probability since it has been out for awhile. The art style was great, which bright colors and good backgrounds as well. The anime is only in japanese, but you would probably still like it even if you only watch animes in dubbed. The character developments are kind of wonky. One of the girls that…

In every anime season there are always the usual category of shows that we expect. There are those hyped shows that everyone wants to watch, there are the romance shows that prove to be either promising or not, and finally, we have that one show every season that you can tell, you can tell will be bad. Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance.
Story (4.99/10): The story of Tsukai no Blade Dance revolves around a magical world. In this world, there are spirits in which only women or girls, are able to make contracts with these spirits and use them as different weapons of different varieties and uses, better known as elemental waffes. (Basically, Zanpaktou). It is here where the only male elementaler (the term used to call the people who use the spirits) in the enrolls in the noble school of using lear…

About half a year ago I had the absolute pleasure of reading through the Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance light novels, and after having caught up with them I consider it one of my favourite series to date. Consequently I was of course very much looking forward to this anime adaptation; however I still felt a bit awkward about it because as it is, Blade Dance is not really an amazing series from the very beginning. It isn't until a few volumes of content down the road that it starts getting exponentially better; however this mere 1-cour adaptation doesn't even reach that far into the story. As a result, people watching this anime will most likely think of it as just yet another cliché harem series, which by itself isn't wrong but it's only scratching the surface of what Blade Dance truly is de…

Zero no Tsukaima can be called as the first series which success the fantasy harem genre series. And now every series with the same genre in each season try to follow its success. One of them is Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance (Blade Dance) for Summer 2014.
Blade Dance is just your typical harem series. The MC is the only boy with the ability whose only girl can only wield, just like IS. And the story went as oh I found an enemy, let's the girls fight and I will help too. Oh, don't forget some unnatural ecchi scene. It's the same recipe. Even there are some unfinished business at the end. Overall, the story is bad.
The art itself, though it's not really good. There are some blurry detail there. The animation isn't really good too, but it's still can be enjoyed. I won't bother with character…

Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance: light novel adaptation! Yeah! You know what that means? Deep, meaningful themes? Character Development? Great Dialogue? Hahahaha, hell no. As with most (if not all) light novel adaptations, Blade Dance is a romance/comedy/harem/fantasy anime catered to the otaku audience. My expectations for this anime were insanely low and all I expected was nothing but a generic, mindless fanservice anime and that's exactly what I got.
Story (25%) - 2/10
The story is as generic as it can be. It's nothing but an obvious setup for a harem and there isn't much thought put into the setting. Now you may be thinking "Sure, it's generic but 2 out of 10?? That's a bit harsh, don't you think?" so allow me a chance to explain why. Usually, shows with no plot (i.e. slice of life) get…

Ok, so what we've got was another one of those harem based fantasy anime, where it was some sort of "Infinite Stratos" kinda of thing where a school for girls was suddenly been invaded by a guy who can do what them girls can do kind of thing, soooooooooo, generally there is no story except a plot where a red head bitch was trying to have the guy all for herself because of what he can do and what he has so that she can win in the so called "Blade Dance" and the rest was the usual them girls competing for the guy's affection, which btw make the story "Poor." ( Should I explain more? Mr. Mod) The art, well, what do I like about it.......FANSERVICE!!!!!!!Yep, seeing Claire and Fianna's pantyshot was good, there were also the moe that come with it when it comes to the girls attire that I find v…

The best way to describe Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance is that it is basically a remake of Zero no Tsukaima with a few additional archetypes thrown in and a few intricacies removed.
The show is a very standard harem, somewhat in the vein of Infinite Stratos, where the main character is the only male elementaler in a school for female elementalers. Predictably, he quickly runs into a cast of about 5 girls who all have affections for him.
What the show does well is pacing. Most harem shows have a few episodes of pointless stalling to focus on one individual girl and pretend that they are going to offer some romantic development. While some girls are more or less prominent in Blade Dance episodes, the story does continue to move forward each episode and there is very little in the way of was…

This show is what i would call the ultimate surprise. This show is something that comes out of no where. You just have to get through the cliche infested first episode
Story wise the story itself is good, What makes this story great in my opinion is the back stories of every character and how they all seem to come together with each other. That is the main reason i personally love this story. Ren Ashebell win the blade dance years ago greatly influences all the female maidens at the school. Restias actions greatly influences Kamito and Greyworth. That to me is a great story, when everything connects with each other.
Character wise i find this show to be fantastic. While the characters themselves may be a little cliche, i find that this show has some of the most intriguing back stories to…

Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance or Blade dance for short is one of five anime adaptation of LN that simultaneously announced by MF Bunko J. For you who have watch many anime by synopsis alone you can see which direction this series will take. Yes this is harem romance comedy with fantasy setting and dash of action. Nothing new here but it's not like being unoriginal equal boring. Blade Dance is type of series that not try to hard to be deep or complicated series. Instead it achieve what it is trying to do becoming simple yet enjoyable series.
Now we are talking about animation and art that is used here. Nothing groundbreaking or spectacular but it still have it's up and down. The best aspect here must be character design an important part on harem genre. Every character is drawn very attract…
