There's a lot going on in the final episode. Everyone is fighting, characters are pouring their hearts out, one of them is even clumsily trying to break the fourth wall, and another one says "IT", so you actually get to hear the show’s title... I should be enjoying the climax of the whole story, there's so much happening, but my final impression is zero. The fights aren’t exciting, the dialogue is mind-numbingly boring, the touching scenes don't work, breaking the fourth wall doesn't seem witty and you barely even notice it. I have a hard time remembering why it all happened and what it was all about five minutes after the episode. The point I'm trying to make here, using the last episode as an example, is that The Iceblade Sorcerer Shall Rule the World is a rather forgettable and dull anime that didn’t have anything I hadn't seen before and better. Plus, I often got the plot mixed up with the series about a reincarnated exorcist, which is also running this season. At least in the beginning, there was something I could distinguish the series by. The main character spoke in an extremely formal way, calling everyone "sir" and "miss". Plus, I was amused by how poorly written and clichéd the first villain was. His angry expressions were so hilariously dumb. But then the main character started speaking normally, Albert Alium stopped scowling and the series lost all its appeal for me. The humor, if any, was either not very funny, or stupid in that cringe way that reminded me of The Fruit of Evolution. The worst part was Rose’s training for the tournament, after which I had no idea how I was supposed to find the main character likable and take him seriously if he was acting like some sort of "masked" idiot. All the characters felt stereotypical to me. There’s really nothing original or interesting to say about them. Some, like Elisa (the second main character!), seemed completely irrelevant to the story. Plus, it wasn’t special even as far as animation is concerned. The fights were all cuts and a couple of effects. I can't tell you if the music had any effect on me as I barely noticed it. A boring, below-average show that didn’t impress me much but didn’t annoy me all that much either (I did make it to the end). 4/10
