Arslan Senki

| I'm not sure how I never heard about this anime! I binge watched S1 (25Ep) this weekend and I'll be starting S2 (8Ep) today.

It's a historical fiction, senki (follows a military campaign,) that's essentially showing a twisted version of the medieval crusades.

So far I think it's great and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the stuff I mentioned above without going into crazy historical detail. It's mostly about the characters and political intrigue.


| Also the art and production value are excellent!


| It's basically Fire Emblem : the animation

| I only watched the first few eps or so, was OK. Does it improve?

It's good if you like watching almost every trope be played straight, or if you get attached to the characters. Gieve, when he shows up, is my go-to example of the bardest bard to ever have barded. The intrigue isn't up to the level of, say, Shoukoku no Altair, and the plot twists are few and far between. The characters may grow on you, or they may not. In all, it's pretty good but not excellent.


| The anime isn't currently done yet either. There's a season 3 that's TBA for like two years.


| season two somehow feels bland, imo, less interesting
