Podcast review of the first four episodes of The Familiar of Zero Box Set, published by Geneon, List Price: $59.98, Rated 13+. Directed by Yoshiaki Iwasaki (Best Student Council, Hayate the Combat Butler). Series Composition by Takao Yoshioka (Elfen Lied, Dears).
From the back cover:
In a magical land where two moons shine in the night sky, one young student in the magic school, Louise, has acquired the nickname of "Zero." Why? Her "zero" talent! With a near-perfect failure rate for her spells, the shock that Louise's summoning spell works equals the surprise of her new familiar, a human boy from Japan! When the boy begins exhibiting some unexpected abilities, why do the teachers get so nervous?
My Grade: B+
Good review and it was especially fun to hear you talk about the way Louise treats Saito. She\'s a bit beyond the normal tsundere-type character with her occasional \"abuse.\"
Hope you keep watching the rest of the series!
Thanks for the kind words. I will definitely keep watching the show.
