Dog Days Review



Dog days is a Japanese animated series made by Masaki Tsuzuki, the same mind who made  Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. The animation has 13 episodes that started airing on July 7 to September 29, 2012. The animation is all about the adventure of Cinque Izumi, a happy go lucky athletic boy who was summoned to a different world. Cinque woke up in Flonyard an alternate dimension where the inhabitants are like normal people only that they have animals ears and tails. Cinque was summoned by Millhiore, the dog-like Princess of the Biscotti Republic who asked cinque's help to participate in a war as a hero against the forces of the feline like creatures of Galette. Cinque was given a weapon as a sign of being the hero of Biscotti , The Palladion. When they are in a war, The two kingdoms participate in a sports-like themed battle and if the participants will be knocked out, they will turn into an animal fur ball. The first to conquer the castle or defeat the Leader will win. 


DogDays probably is a rare type of fighting/shonen manga. The idea they put into making Sports/Athletics as the means of war is really outstanding.  all i can say is this anime is somewhat the anti violence or anti war type of animation. Now for the Story, there are some dull moments in this series. the plot is really easy to understand but there are some loop holes. Though the story isn't really that deep it tend to make viewers question what is the real plot they portray. This anime is really into its genre and that can be seen clearly in all of the episodes. From the drawing, the transition of the story, and also semi pun/comedic stuff. Nevertheless this anime is highly recommended for those who wanted to watch a bit of calm but action packed anime.

I'll rate this 8/10 at some point it leaves many questions unanswered.
