Summary:
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.
D. Gray was a great story with depth as well as action within the plot and realistic character reactions. At first I didn't like the story but it gets more intriguing after the a couple of episodes.
After the fillers (not including them) the plot of the story started to drag quite a bit. Character reactions kept repeating over and over (Linalee for example During the Arch) and the action scenes also began dragging alot like Naruto Shippuden Episodes (there might be one that actually went over 4 episodes -_-;). Also there was revival of characters.... a corny (expected) no no, if they weren't ment to die just don't 'pretend' to kill them off! Wether this a fualt of the manga-ka or the animeters trying to prolong the series I don't know. But overall
despite my Critisism D.Grayman is an enjoyable anime but had greater potential.
Also at the beggining (not though most of it) its reminiscent of Fullmetal Alchemist in some areas - but that's not the only reason why it was interesting for me.
