Story: There is a lot of random terminology. But you'll get use to it and won't let it bother you. The basis of the plot is unique. The issue is that these side episodes (not fillers but basically with them explaining the plot) to be boring! I mean even though this is an action anime, its not like they fight in every ep...once ever couple of eps. The rest of the time is spent of basically plot development. In short, the main character is the reincarnation of this one girl who happens to be in a relationship with the other main lead. The main bad guys are all basically after him, of course, so its up to the team of super powered highschool boys (plus one girl but she barely fights for like 5 secs in the entire series) to defend this damsel in distress...being that its the guy. The interesting thing is at least the main character female reincarnate is the healer character who uses barriers, and isn't a complete pussy. But still is pretty pushed around to the other characters when it comes to "sit down and stay out of the way". There's a lot of interesting points in the series, so I can't say skip to the end or only watch the beginning because you'll miss out...of course at least I would say skip the first three eps cause theyre pointless. If you begin with the fourth ep, you'll be greatly impressed (trust me, the 4th ep puts the first three to shame).
Dialouge: Very Shounen-ai "Brotherly love" "Bromance" Its good at one point, but eventually you'll get irritated with the fact that all these implied male couples and yet they don't even have any romantic physical contact.
Animation: Compared to the manga...its WAY better. But I would say the anime version is like if you took the Vampire Knight manga and turned it directly into an anime, very similar. The issue is that they put more effort of the guys (obviously), than the girls, where they all have the same face but different hair styles, if you get what I mean. This animation was clearly meant for fangirls/boys. Also the battle scenes are animated really well, though I wouldn't say mind trippy as some battle animes are (Bleach). Good thing is that they actually have a lot more blood than Bleach when they fight.
Entertainment: You'll just get entertained by the way the guy characters interact with each other. So don't watch this if you're homophobic (then die) or can't stand super Shounen-ai.
