A New Kind of Power
I have to say this anime has one great point and that is the potential the anime has in general. This anime has a great deal of stuff going on in it. So much so in fact that they could actually spawn side stories and sequels using this universe and never miss a beat. It is rare to actually see some kind of expansive anime like this one. Where you have a very rich and wide world. Plus I guess the super powers are unique as well.
I have to applaud the interesting idea of taking flags and making them a super power. You know you would have never really thought that something that just kind of appeared as a way to describe how to beat games as something that would become a super power. Even better I do enjoy how the world can be changed and manipulated through the flags.
Sure enough you have your basic flags that appear and can be broken at will and have no real effect in the world. However, the series really starts to win when the main character starts to try and bring out other power powerful and permanent flags. Such as the Victory flag, which allows you to win. I guess it is one of those pen is mightier things. Because you really need to sit down and think about how to manipulate things and what to say to get these new flags to appear.
It is a bit of a shame that the emphasis was put on the female cast trying to get some. This anime has great potential to become something awesome and interesting. Yet we kind of throw all that away with the hopes that there is nothing more important than seeing a bunch of girls, and a boy, fight over a boy. Still it is an interesting concept. Maybe once it gains some popularity the anime will have more about using your powers to manipulate the world.
