Though it only occasionally shakes the pervasive feel of its fantasy RPG origins, the second half of this mix of Christian and Greek mythology with Arthurian legend shines when it does. If you at least tolerated the first half, you should be quite pleased with the second half.
This is exactly what a great sports show should be like. It's not really about kendo, it's about a bunch of young girls in love with the game. It is a wonderful little story that deserves all the praise that can be dished out for what it has to give.
It's amazing what actually developing a coherent plot and more fully exploring characters can do for a series that, through most of its first 13 episodes, was a train wreck. But does a much stronger second half make weathering a weak first half worthwhile? In this case, the answer is a marginal “yes.”
This title's use of classic formula has a delicious sharp edge on it that slices in and hooks deep from the start. You can hardly do better than Soul Eater.
For clean, disposable and weirdly socially conscious RPG fun, you could do far worse.
