Im only writing this review because the first Half of the Anime was OK although completely blasted with Cliches. After EP 68 everything just turns to complete bull. I dont know what the creators thought they where doing but Im sure it was based on a story where they had to cut out like 75 of the content. And you can clearly feel that while watching. This Anime goes from Adventure to Politics to Slice of Life to Apocalyptic Scenarios and Tragedy in the span of 1 Episode and not in a good way... Animation is OK they put in some effort. The fight scenes are meh too but it wasnt about the fight scenes anyways. Although there was a high emphasis on it specially in the last EPs. It was definitely a low budged animation so Im not going to complain more. This was really the least of the issues. Premise: Blacks and Whites Kingdoms are at war since always Yes this is the very very stupid name they have decided on.... There is the King of Blacks King of Darkness who tries to unify the world by covering it in Darkness The Princess Head of the Whites Kingdom and the Queen of Light Also the MC who is the Prince and the next Ruler in line. The Anime centres around the peace treaty the blacks and whites want to establish to stop the endless bloodshed and suffering. Thats it. Now about the Characters: The 2 Main characters the Black Prince and White Princess are the embodiment of cliches and so turns out to be the story The Male MCs place of life gets destroyed by demons and through some situations decides to become the next ruler of the kingdom. He becomes the next successor in line for the black Kingdom and goes on an envoy mission with another a former successor candidate to the Whites kingdom together with best girl Groza. The romance in this story is in my opinion very garbage There was almost 0 reason for the MC to fall in love with the Princess but he does this on first sight. Minor Spoiler: The Princess Iris: Super Cliche. Just another boring character who wants to protect her kingdom in a stupid and altruistic fashion. There is not much to this. Her family/friends are just as bad and cliche best female friend who is the head priestess and best male friend who has a crush on her and is the head knight. The writing for them was just as boring as it was for the Princess so Im not even going to elaborate on it. Heck the little 10 year old brother of the Priestess and Knight has more character development than any other character in this series with his 5 minutes of total screentime... The only character trait the princess has is that she likes gardening and self sacrifice which she does from EP 01 to 12. Groza best girl: An executive of the Darks more like a secretary. She basically carries the story in a lot of situations. from the first time she was introduced she fell for the MC he saved her life on a whim... cliche I know.. She supports the MC in every situation and helps lighten the mood of this otherwise very boring show. Im not going to elaborate a lot on her because as you may realise in the first 23 episodes: She was obviously only added to the story to get trashed aside by the MC later on for the princess but this is something they always do in any trashtier Anime nowadays so I knew this immediately when I saw the first EP. she stood no chance against the shitty writing of the creators. She of course doesnt get much screen time after a point and has no chance whatsoever to have her romantic desire bloom. At least she gets rejected by the MC properly. Thinking about it it was a lot better for her to not get together with this trashtier MC. There is also the other messenger from the blacks who lost against MC in the battle for succession but hes written just as bad as everyone else and I was expecting it to end similar to what it did but they somehow made it even worse than I thought. Major Spoiler The final scene also shows a kind of open end with chance of a continuation but I really hope this doesnt get a 2nd season. If you loved this series Im sorry but the story was just bad in my opinion TLDR: Did I enjoy this series? Yes from EP 1 to 8. Would I recommend it? No. Does it have good waifus? They are okay. If you somehow really like the princess the most Im concerned about your mental health. Dont forget that this is just my opinion. I watch about 5 10 Anime every season with my favourite tags being Adventure Action or Comedy. Im also a Waifu Hunter so this may or may not have influenced my review of this. English is my 3rd language.
