Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin

This is one of the pleasant surprises of Summer 2010. At first sight, Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin dd not appeal much to me as the art looks boring. However, I'm glad I watched it anyway as Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin turned out to be quite entertaining.Plot: (8/10) – GoodThough I'm still a little disappointed with the last episode, overall I think the story is pretty well-written and there were some interesting twists to the plot too. Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin is also surprisingly educational as it explained quite a bit about the different myths and occult in the world.Characters: (8/10) – GoodSeikimatsu Occult Gakuin has quite an interesting cast of characters: a self-declared occult-hating girl, a wimp from the future, a visual kei fat guy who knows dousing and etc.There are no characters I particularly like a lot. However, I do think that the main female character is very cool.Maya - She's the coolest character in this anime.
Fumiaki - He's a wimp most of the time but he redeemed himself in the last few episodes.
JK - He's the most outstanding character, for various reasons.
Art/Animation: (6/10) – FairI can't appreciate the art style and the character designs are very bland too. However, the animation quality is not too bad.Music: (7/10) – Fairly GoodThe Opening Theme "Flying Humanoid" by Nakagawa Shouko is quite catchy and I think the Ending Theme "Kimi ga Iru Basho" by Takagaki Ayahi is nice. However, for some reasons, I think the 2 kids in the Ending Theme sequence look a little scary for some reason.Enjoyment: (8/10) – GoodSometimes it's good to watch an anime without any expectation as you may just end up enjoying it more. I watched Seikimatsu Occult Gakuin with very little expectation and I find it surprisingly funny and entertaining.Overall: (8/10) – GoodIf you love occult and believe in things like Nostradamus, I think you will enjoy this anime. Even if you don't believe in occult, you may find it amusing and entertaining.Bookmark and Share
