Weiss Survive What was I thinking when I picked this one up!? It must have been an accident.... for sure. Now for the first time in my anime-watching history, I've marked a series as "Avoid". Yes, this is the first and hopefully last. Art, Animation & Character Designs Artwork wasn't bad. It was on par with many of modern anime. Although there were lots of kawaii girls, none of them stood out. Infact, "none" of the characters stood out. Music Nothing here to speak of. Series and Episode Story This series was basically a waste of time. Each episode stood at about 2 1/2 minutes and had no story, no plot and nothing that caught my interest. The only saving grace and "barely" at that, was the slight bit of slapstick humor. That's the ONLY reason why I marked the "Episode Story" with a 3. And that's being generous. Overall, I agree with Jan-Chan below.... pure marketing hype. Last updated Wednesday, December 08 2010. Created Wednesday, December 08 2010.

Weiss Survive MEH !!! Pure marketing hype.... BAH !! Silly stereotypical characters put to anime to help tout a card game. If you are a serious anime fan, then pls don't waste too much time on this one. Last updated Tuesday, June 16 2009. Created Tuesday, June 16 2009.
