Dragon Crisis


First and foremost... my computer is a sleazy hooker.
Secondly, C stands for current. As opposed to PS, which means I have finished the show.

Yay! Dragons!!

Okay, so Dragon Crisis. I'll start off saying that it is my firm belief that the show is very "stock" in nature. What I mean by this is that the show is built (much like everything) off of successful tricks already shown to attract an audience. Male lead who is strong but scared of what he can do (Ryuji), female ingenue who is youthful and unquestioningly in love with male lead (Rose), strong female who is 'sexual' (Cousin of Ryuji), and close female friend who is quiet, but in love with male lead as well (classmate girl whose name I cannot remember right now). Add in mystical elements or magic in general and set on the stove. That's the basic outline of Dragon Crisis.

Don't get me wrong, I like the show (or else I would not be watching it). I am quite the sucker for a magical story, especially about dragons. I won't give any particular details, but the show has had me charmed since episode one and the 'engage' concept though not original is quite touching in the "let's join our powers and be unstoppable" kind of way. They're cute and I greatly enjoy the concept of magic used in the show. It comes from breakers using lost preciouses and it's quite intriguing that the power is weapon based and changeable.

I recommend this show highly, not as high as I would Puella Magi Madoka Magica... but the show is very good from my viewpoint. Give it a watch.
