      Genuinely curious - why do you like it? I see this at the top anime of all time. I watched it a few years ago and i thought it was absolutely horrible. Like 2 or 3 out of 10.

      I feel like the only reason i can see is “the main character is a bad guy” but that doesnt excuse trope-y terrible writing, flat characters, and mid-2000’s animation that aged horribly. Am i missing something?

            I thought the concept was interesting. Seemed a bit derivative of The Witcher, but it was still interesting. I enjoyed most of the action scenes, and the VAs were not obnoxious in the Japanese dub.

            I didn’t like how repetitive it started to feel towards the end, but I’d be lying if I said I didnt like it more than most of the anime I’ve watched that released after 2005.

            I also really liked the soundtrack.
