Synopsis

Said to be humanity's natural enemy, formidable dragons that belong to an ancient bloodline roam the world. Only two ways prove effective to kill a dragon: freezing their blood with silverine—an aura that comes from silver weapons—or letting their bodies be incinerated by sunlight.

Young hunter prodigy Leonica is accompanied by her close friend Ragna, who appears to lack the skills necessary in their profession. Moreover, many shun Ragna, considering him cursed because dragons always seem to attack him and slaughter his close ones. Nevertheless, Leonica sees potential in Ragna and gladly partners up with him. Likewise, Ragna feels certain that Leonica is immune to his misfortune thanks to her incredible strength.

His confidence is shaken, however, when Ragna dreams of Leonica's death, believing this to be a prophecy. As the destined day arrives, he comes face-to-face with his future self, who bestows him enormous power and memories from the future to ensure Leonica's safety. In order to succeed, Ragna must join forces with a mysterious figure known as Crimson and eradicate all dragons for good.

Well, this anime was a pretty interesting suprise. It has so many main genres in it, that it took me by suprise, especially cuz it kinda switched between them pretty fast at some points and caught me off guard. It's a comedy, it's shounen, it also has mature content, it's big flashy fights, it (tries) to put some sad moments in it. Quite the catalog, if you ask me.
In the first few episodes, it seemed to be kinda basic, but the rule of 3 episodes (+ a few more sometimes) doesn't let you down. It starts showing what makes this story unique, and that ...

Mixed Feelings
Well, its better than most mid stories in that it actually tries very hard to keep the viewer entertained, regardless of its lacking in certain areas.

If you can get around the blatant CGI, the animation nosediving the further along we go, and the outright unnecessary death toll of "beloved characters" by the end... Ragna Crimson has a fairly enjoyable story in theory. From the very get go, everything is stacked against Ragna and the humans in general. It has such a strong start in introducing you to the world and the state that it's in-- namely dragon hunting being such a main staple for how ...

Preliminary (17/24 eps)
Ragna Crimson has a similar feeling to Berserk, but it is miles behind in execution.

Unfortunately, this show could've thrived with good production and directing, but we got the exact opposite of it. And the characters aren't charismatic neither - most are just men-children - and plotholes plus poor worldbuilding are the nails in the coffin for Ragna Crimson.

Besides all that, there is also a problem with stakes, as the mcs are too strong and it is quite clear they won't die during the first arcs of the show. The side characters are also not developed enough for us to care deeply about them, in part ...
