Okay so the anime isn't bad... but compare to the manga.... It does not even compare.... The manga is 1000x better and is actually one of my most favorite mangas of all time so I was actually incredibly disappointed with what they did with this. It wasn't bad in the beginning as they were actually following the plot of the manga... but as soon as they deviated from it.... it just made me wanna destroy the monitor and the wall behind it. I freaked cuz the story completely was ruined. There was no other way to put it. Since spoilers aren't allowed.... I'll just say this. If you really want to watch a mediocre anime and hate comics and reading then, yea sure go ahead... but if you are a manga reader... then my suggestion is to read the manga first since the manga is epic and phenomenal. Then and only then will you know of this gap in greatness....
