Synopsis ~

Alma Tandoji lives a lonely life. One day, Ruri Alba, a girl accompanied by her butler and maids, visits him. Knowing the power of Sacred Seven is latent within Alma, she asks him to lend her his powers. However, he refuses and drives her away since he injured many with his unusual strength in the past.

Meanwhile, a fiendish Dark Stone creature suddenly appears in this peaceful town in the Kanto region. Only Alma's power of Sacred Seven can fight against it. But Alma just lets his power run amuck and things begin to get worse. Ruri raised her gemstone in order to release his true abilities, My Soul I give to you.

With Ruri's wishes engraved in it, will Alma be able to defeat the Dark Stone?

Dopes says ~

Alma Tandoji, a lonely boy who gets the power of the sacred seven one day and battles with a girl called Ruri and her butler. There is a whole lot going in the first episode that gets you thinking wow! Ruri tries to recruit Alma so they can get the power to defeat the dark stone creatures.

Dopes likes ~

I like the plotline, that is what interested me in the first place. But you realise how rushed the show itself is and you wonder why bother. But I honestly feel that it could have developed a bit more than just what they showed us. It was interesting till they rushed it which was sad because it had potential!

I wasn’t keen on the characters but I didn’t mind ti either. I was really happy to see Alma and Ruri and the butler all together they were cute. I was just surprised to see the weird gem stone insertion on Alma that made me laugh a bit. It looked so strange and out of place but overall I wouldn’t delve too much into the show for characters because it did lack.

The music itself was great, they took care of that. I was in fact infatuated with the songs in the series which was good enough for me as it made the show decent.
Next to the Art of course! The visuals were really good I really enjoyed them! I thought that was getting me into the show and it was, the characters didn’t match up to my expectation.

Dopes Dislikes ~

Characters were not well thought through they were pretty bland, the typical shounen and the only back-story of was of the butler and Ruri there wasn’t any of anyone else. It was strange and just didn’t do well. I didn’t think much of it but I wasn’t too sure why they couldn’t have made it longer and developed it. It just showed the manufactured characters which showed off the image rather go in depth with it.

There was too much going on at once that it had more than a few flaws I was quite disappointed in that.

Dopes concludes ~

Surprisingly sacred seven was still watchable, I wasn’t surprised but I wasn’t heavily impressed either. I thought it could have developed more and had more care into it. The visuals for me were a highlight, the enjoyment of the show could have boosted a bit more as some episodes were bland and it wasn’t right. I had high expectations for it but you know it all depends on you I think because of my high expectations I failed to see the whole point of the show and didn’t enjoy it as much as I hoped for. It is honestly a very easy to follow Anime with no twists and turns but a simple good vs evil. It could be compared to Scryed or even Tiger&Bunny but honestly it doesn’t live up to those two Animes at all. But I wouldn’t say don’t watch it because to be honest it’s still watchable if you like it a bit messed up.  IT could have honestly done so much better but it didn’t!
