Allen Walker, a young man with a cursed eye, lives to destroy a weapon known as Akuma. These weapons created by the Milleneum Earl are sent out by his command to purge the world from humans. Allen Walker uses an anti-akuma weapon, Innocence, to counter the Earl's attempts at destroying humanity. He travels to the Black Order by his mentor's directions. There he meets with others who also fight against the Milleneum Earl's plans. But more questions start to appear as Allen and his friends move further along to reach their goal. And these questions that seem to connect to Allen's past. |

pros
+ original storyline with unique setting
+ great characters and quite funny chara interaction
+ amazing mixture of action, comedy, suspense, supernatural and horror with the right flavour of 'darkness' to it
cons
- story starts off rather slow and doesn't finish
- fillers make it lose in flow
- limited set of charas, fighting can get repetitive since everyone has only a small set of attacks
conclusion: imo one of the best shounen out there. once you get over the beginning, in which it seems like a typical 'hunt down the demons' anime, the storyline gains depth and becomes more involving. characters are amazingly well thought-out, complex, and provide one hell of a comedic side to something that otherwise would just be dark and shady. slow-paced, and you might have to read the manga once you're through with the anime (it doesn't finish), but it's well worth the time s'long as you have a bit of patience.
peace.
