Sligtly Generic but Slightly Good

There are many things that are generic about this anime, the half demon half human(devil may cry, claymore, naruto with his nine tailed fox, one piece), the school for exorcists which reminds me of harry potter. the main character who's very open and apparently never gives up like SO MANY other characters out there. Ippo, Naruto, Ichigo, etc etc etc. He has a rival...obvoiusly. Oh! and he's the son of the Devil and if that doesn't give the story a reason for Monsters to come and try and kill him then I don't know what does!

BUT...yet they have some ideas that are good and capture your attention for more then a couple of episodes like the headmaster who seems too shady for his own good or the demon in the kitchen who wanted to eat the kids was pretty funny. The teacher who has a bit more a background to him then what first meets the eye. Or the cool challenges and tests they do at the school like getting chased by demons.

My verdict - for a younger audience (I'm 19) who want to watch something simple and uncomplicated could really enjoy this. Or just wanting to watch something to past the time. Unfortunately i got up to episode 8 and stopped watching because it didn't capture my attention as much as something that felt new and fresh to the anime community like Deadman Wonderland or Usagi Drop for which i have gone as far as reading the mangas.
