Night Wizard in no way a great anime. But it somehow ended up as one of my favorites and for one little reason: it's so simple. The plot is a straight forward one that is reminiscent of older anime where Yandere characters were but a far, far away thing and loli was not a genre of anime. Where it was the hero versus the bad guy on a mystical quest. Night Wizard is exactly that.

The art in Night Wizard, although sometimes inconsistent (although quite rarely), is very nice. While the character designs are somewhat generic, they are done nicely and with style so that you can get over the generic feel that accompanies them. The opening sequence is very simple and the song (sung by the wonderful Seiyuu who plays the main female character, Shihou Elis) isn't too bad either. The ending sequence is a series of still images but done really nicely so that the power of the beautiful ending song can really get it's point across.

The characters work nicely as a team and go about fighting the weekly bad guys until the end of the series where the true villian is revealed and our two main characters have to go against their friends and the organization they worked very hard for. A turn of events you might not have anticipated at the start of the series. But everything wraps up nicely for the end of the series with the perfect place to start off with a second season.
