Takashi,
Kurumi, and Kazuma used to be normal high school students until Mui,
a magical girl stepped into their lives. After awakening their
latent powers, the three are dragged into a secret war between two
wizard factions, Wizard's Breath and Ghost Trailer. As Takashi and
his friends learn more about magic and it's history, they will have
to decide which side they stand on In Magical
Warfare: Complete Collection
(2014).
Takashi
is the male protagonist, after becoming a wizard he specializes in
evasion magic with a magical sword. Kazuma is Takashi's best friend
and uses destruction fire magic. Kurumi is Takashi's childhood
friend and is gifted with transformation magic and is in love with
Takashi. Mui is gifted with speed magic and uses a magical gun,
after rescuing her brother she transfers her affections toward
Takashi. More often than not Mui gets into trouble, and Takashi and
the others has to rescue her which causes Kurumi to get jealous but
she loves him even more for his kindness.
This
was your typical anime boy finds magic world and must save the world
from destruction. While the characters were interesting, near the
end of the series it felt rushed and left it on a cliffhanger ending.
Otherwise, well done.
The
1080p 1.78 X 1 digital high definition image is another series of
quality presentations from episode to episode that may not be
Sentai's very best, but is more than HD enough, while the lossless
DTS-HD MA (Master Audio) 2.0 Stereo mixes on each show equal (if not
surpass) the picture, so these all play back just fine. Extras
include clean opening and closing animation and trailers.
