The world is barely established before we're thrust right into a tournament arc that lasted maybe two episodes. We're introduced to all the main characters, except for the fanservice girl, in just the first few episodes. The first four or so episodes were jam packed and nonsensical, so much happened over the season that I barely remember. I'd already heard about the excessive fanservice, so I knew this wasn't going to be a high quality show, but somehow Fire Force reached lower than my already low expectations.įirst off, the pacing was atrocious. I wasn't expecting much when I started Fire Force. TL:DR Fire Force is at the front of the new gen, interesting premise, cool characters, Soul Eater author, cool fights and music(minus OP 2) and a story you’ll get sucked into. Probably a minor thing, but I felt it was important enough to mention. For instance, if Shinra and Arthur are talking and Arthur finishes his sentence, for some reason the camera stays on him for like a full 5 seconds which for me creates a cognitive dissonance. Personally, my one complaint with the series are the camera shots that seem to linger after a person has finished talking. Personally, I have no issue with fan service and don’t see why anyone would mind it, but if you do, you may find parts of the show difficult to get through as her fan service is often used as a plot device and in a later arc actually proves very decisive. I will say this, there have been many complaints on twitter and other social media about the amount of fan service particularly as it relates to Tamaki. Gorgeous animation and amazing sound design/ost to compliment them. The fight scenes are the main selling point of any battle shonen and they’re done extremely well in this series. main cast and genuinely become invested in their individual stories. Characters and the world are properly developed and after the series gets going, you really do become attached to the The source material was perfectly adapted and pacing was never an issue throughout. Faced with many obstacles within and outside the Fire Force, Shinra fights to uncover the truth behind the burning mysteries that have kept him in the dark.įire Force offers one of the more original takes on Shonen, instead of being about a kid out to get stronger or take on the world, we get a story about a world in which humans live in constant fear of suddenly exploding and turning into flame monsters.Īs someone who has been following the manga since the start, I was quite excited for this adaptation and was not disappointed at all. The Fire Force is a fractured mess of feuding brigades, abnormal Infernal sightings are increasing all over Tokyo, and a shadowy group is claiming to have answers to the strange fire that caused the death of Shinra's family 12 years ago. However, this is not the hero's game Shinra imagined. Upholding the brigade's duty to extinguish the blazing Infernals and lay their souls to rest, Shinra is determined to become a hero who will save the lives of those threatened by the flame terror. Young and eager third-generation pyrokinetic Shinra Kusakabe, nicknamed Devil's Footprints for his explosive ability to ignite his feet at will, becomes a member of the lively Special Fire Force Company 8. To combat the Infernal threat and discover the cause, the Tokyo Armed Forces, Fire Defense Agency, and Holy Church of Sol produced their answer: the Special Fire Force. While Infernals make up the first-generation accounts of Human Combustion, the second and third generations became known as pyrokinetics-people gifted with the ability to manipulate and control their flames while remaining human.
