Overview
"Alpha Stigma" are known to be eyes that can analyze all types of magic. However, they are more infamously known as cursed eyes that can only bring destruction and death to others.
Ryner Lute, a talented mage and also an Alpha Stigma bearer, was once a student of the Roland Empire's Magician Academy, an elite school dedicated to training magicians for military purposes. However, after many of his classmates died in a war, he makes an oath to make the nation a more orderly and peaceful place, with fellow survivor and best friend, Sion Astal.
Now that Sion is the the king of Roland, he orders Ryner to search for useful relics that will aid the nation. Together with Ferris Eris, a beautiful and highly skilled swordswoman, Ryner goes on a journey to search for relics of legendary heroes from the past, and also uncover the secrets behind his cursed eyes.













































What often surprises me in anime is that it seems to you that you have already understood the idea and are nearing the denouement, and then new characters begin to appear, new plot lines open up, and it becomes clear that the world is much wider, and by the end of the season you obviously won't finish. The author of the original source clearly decided to show something huge, interesting and complex. And we are shown a filler in episode 23. On the last 24, of course, they staged an extravaganza of plot twists - Shion and Rainer explained themselves very interestingly. As a result, it turned out that in 10 hours of their time they watched only the prologue ...
The result: an interesting, good fantasy is very suitable for fishing. Against the general background, there are a lot of shortcomings and poor directing (IMHO).
I have never understood the humor that is based on how a girl/girl beats up the main character. They beat him, call him names, mock him, and from episode to episode it all happens the same way, ruthlessly and not funny. It's sad that this is the only kind of humor here, and it pops up quite often. As for the narrative, I don't remember the last time I saw such a chatty fantasy. And I don't seem to mind, because their conversations are always on the case, through them we get to know the world and follow the plot. However, there are too few dynamic scenes, they are always unexpected and short. At first it was very interesting - I liked the world, and I really love fantasy as a genre, but after 12 episodes, the chatter began to tire and I had to dilute it with other series.
