Reviews

Kekkai Sensen immerses you in, perhaps, the best anime world I've seen, despite other imperfections.

Which of you shall be the witness? The witness of a world beyond the ordinary eye, one with lots of fun

A lack of connection or final point to it's episodic nature was this shows ultimate downfall...
