Labyrinth Of Flames

Ever heard of the saying "It's so bad, that it's hilariously good"? Well, I guess you can say this is one of those animes. Story 7/10 So, when you read the synopsis for the story at first. It sounds completely ridiculous, right? But, when you actually watch the anime and story unfold, it's hilarious. It's about a guy, Galan, who is obsessed with the samurai lifestyle and even wants to become one if possible. When his friend, Natsu, gives him a ancient sword as a present, strange events start to happen (i.e being attacked and his friend asking him to marry her). Now it is up toGalan to stop these strange events. (Also, you got panties in your face, how worse can the story get, right? xD) Art 8/10 The art is very good. Some scenes were badly done, which is why I took points away. Sound 7/10 The soundtrack is good, nothing spectacular here. Character 9/10 Man, all the character are so funny! You got Natsu who has a dad who is a pervert and wants to grope her, to which Natsu beats him up (despite that he says he enjoys it). You got a overly protective servant of Natsu, who is really strange. You have a freelance reporter who speaks in a weird what seems to be Texan accent xD And you have your protagonist, Galan, who is stupid at everything he does xD Enjoyment 8/10 At first, I thought this was going to be a serious samurai anime. Boy, was I wrong! This is a comedy and it's really funny and I ended up really enjoying it! Overall 8/10 Don't think this is a serious samurai anime 'cause it's not! This is a comedy that has many hilarious laughs. If you're just looking to laugh at something, then I recommend this anime. But if you're looking for a more serious samurai anime, then this is not it. Thanks for reading. Let me know your thoughts on this review and any feedback you may have for me. Until next time!

Honoo no Labyrinth is what I consider a very decent anime. It's a short 2 episode OVA. For the 1 hour run time I would say it was enjoyable, yet simple. The Good: Overall I enjoyed it's art style, very 90s which I enjoy, and for an OVA the animation quality itself isn't too shabby. I also thought the humor wasn't too bad, it was kind of hit, and miss with more hits for me than misses for me personally. I felt the characters were nice, and decently written. The Bad: The humor I felt while enjoyable was very obvious with it's punchline. I felt theover abundance of panty shots were too much, but it's an ecchi anime, what am I to expect? Would I recommend it?: Short answer, yes. It's an hour long, it's goofy, and filled with OVA cheese. It's not perfect, but it's a fun time.

This is the essence of anime. Labyrinth of Flames is a completely wacked out little OVA that never stops coming at you the whole way through. Its funny, its sexy, it has unique & memorable characters, it has fantastic animation, it doesn't take itself too seriously, and it doesn't overstay it's welcome. It doesn't have any deep lore, it doesn't have fight scenes that you'll find on anyone's Top 10 Anime Battles of All Time list, it doesn't have a touching romantic resolution between the main guy and girl, but it doesn't need any of that. Because this anime has soul. Soul that drips from every word and frame.Soul that reminds you why you love anime. Labyrinth of Flames is the anime of anime. I guess what I'm saying is, it's pretty good.
