Overview

The creative team behind the Full Metal Panic! trilogy is back with a nightmare-inducing series about teenage exorcists forced to draw swords against bloodthirsty creatures of unholy origins.

Kagura and Yomi may look like ordinary school girls as they walk the streets of Tokyo clad in short skirts and knee-high socks, but they're the heroes you scream for when monsters creep out of the darkness. These sword-toting sisters are part of an elite counterattack unit that specializes in suppressing outbreaks of supernatural activity. They train together, live together, eat together, and spend their nights disemboweling demons with sacred blades. Tragedy strikes when Yomi is possessed by a dark spirit, and Kagura must choose between raising her weapon against the eerily familiar face of ultimate evil – or watching her flesh and blood slaughter innocent citizens. In a life or death battle that pits sister against sister, survival may be the greatest agony of all.

I spent the whole night watching Ga-Rei Zero anime...
Damn, I think this anime is awesome, starting from the plot, graphics and ending with the frames.
It's been a long time since animechs have bothered me so much.
For the first couple of episodes, nothing is clear, someone is killing someone and that's it.Blood, meat, spirits, and organizations to destroy them.It's like watching a series from the end and wondering what's going on and who these people are.
But I think it's a pretty smart and original move.You spend the rest of the series wondering how it could have happened...It's absolutely impossible.
And human relationships, first of all, exorcists are people.What motivates them?Hatred, greed, envy...love?
I was very touched by the relationship between Kagura and her father...I just sat there and roared over the ending. And of course, the relationship between Kagura and Yomi..The final battle ...
A little bit about the graphics, the drawing is nothing special, but very pleasant, I love this)The only thing I think 3D effects are superfluous, inappropriate or something, but that's my imho
I can't say anything bad about the music, the sounds are great, especially the opening ones.It's catchy.
By the way, I'm quite surprised that Ga-Rei Zero has not gained widespread popularity in our country, although it may be for the best.
In general, it needs to be watched, it's a pity there are only 12 episodes and no continuation is planned.

So. In the first three episodes, we see endless battles, deaths, blood, guts. the supernatural, which is seen only by a select few people, climbs out of their dimension and devours humanity. The government is creating ministry after ministry to deal with the monsters and restore order in the country. In three episodes, all the characters we know are cut out... From the next episode, we're thrown into the past. For some reason, this past is quiet. Ghosts rarely attack, so for half of the series we observe the usual everyday life, as two girls study at school, interact with their parents, classmates, and teachers. They try to build relationships, please us, evoke some emotions, cling to our attention. It's very strange to watch after half the city was cut out in front of your eyes. Gradually, the winding of snot on his fist approaches X-day, that is, the first episode, the plot takes a single dashing turn and chews snot again until the end of the series, but with beautiful battles and drawn Japanese folklore.
I really liked the last episode, the very end. There was even a desire, give me more. But then I remembered that for four hours of the series I was wondering: "And what the hell am I looking at?" and the desire immediately disappeared.

anyway, I sat down tonight to watch this happiness...
in short, I didn't understand anything, but it was very interesting.

in more detail, yes, the drawing is quite good (except for the disgusting 3d effects), the music is nothing like that, cheerful, the lines are pretty good in places, excessive sexualization (mother of God X)) it was also added for some reason and does not deliver.
and the characters. damn, for the sake of these characters who managed to cling when accelerating x2 (yeah, I read the comments at the beginning that it might be tedious), it's worth reading this story. but that's where the "I didn't understand anything" begins. there has been no information at all about half of the Persians since the first episode (except for a flashed summary after death in the form of a dossier), about the main villain, except that he visited the Vatican and snatched this stone, also absolutely nothing. Why did you come to Tokyo, what do you need, or just for fun, decided to level the local exorcist units? Or was Wessel looking for a stone? how did he function at a time when the stone did not belong to him? Why didn't the stone eat him? What are the butterflies? How is an exorcist defined? What are the backgrounds of the entire department? How did Kaori's father manage to capture the most powerful beast? All these numerous questions remained unanswered for me at 2 a.m.
and at three.
and at four, I still started writing a comment because I can't keep quiet, lol.
(why, with all the damage, after meeting with glavgad, did Yomi remain alive with such damage, since there was no stone in her yet?.. Why did the death stone work differently for Yomi and Kaori? Balin, yes, I can mess around with unanswered questions until dawn %))
but the most important thing is: why did Michael only run in his underpants? :D
shtosh.
probably a good anime. but it's too damn unclear.

Well, at least somewhere they didn't delay listening to the "fake" one who returned, but in 2 seconds they finished everything right on the spot. But still, after all that has been shown, it is clear why Kagura could not do the same...
