Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance Review- Where’s the Blade Dance?

Torturing myself every season has its fun parts when I get to laugh with my friends on how bad these are.

Every season I need my dose of generally mediocre adaptation of a light novel series that more than often is a harem series. There was a joke going around that Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance would be the series that would kill and succeed the likes of Infinite Stratos and Date A Live. Now, the former can be outdone by nearly any sort of harem but some of you should know I hold DAL in some respectable regard. Seeing as though Blade Dance had 10+ volumes and how Light had been keeping up with it, I generally though it wouldn’t be bad.

I was sort of wrong.

Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance Episode 8- What now?

You couldn’t get more cliche than this.

Also, what the hell is the series going to do now with the only other male elementalist getting detained at the end? Another thing, do the subbers really have to call it Elemantalers? Why can’t it just be Elementalist?

They also did the most cliche thing ever in this episode too. I thought Kamito was decent enough for handling the possessive girls but then he pulls the “We’re strong because we’re a team!” thing and I just had to stop the episode and take a breather before continuing.

Hell the fight with Jio was pathetic too. Restia shows up in blade form but he gets wrecked anyway.

Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance Episode 7- Repeat

It’s kind of sad to see how such simplistic fights take place in a series called Blade Dance. Then again, this series is all about the girls instead of actual fighting. Strange to see IS and DAL pull off more action sequences than this.

Anyways, the episode features harem antics, slight interactions with Fianna, and some weak fighting.

Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance Episode 6- Another male spotted

Something happens.

That’s a good thing.

Seriously though they decide to finally bring something interesting halfway through but even then nothing else happens.
