Seriously speaking though, I personally thought that a very good example of how disfocused the first part of this anime was was the fact that they didn't focus on Strength's pre-existing friendship with Mato. Had they played that up instead, and made Yomi a little less prominent, quite alot of the melodrama and hasty attempts at what passes for character and relationship development could easily have been cut out instead in the first few episodes. To me, Mato and Yuu relationship is the center of the plot, and Yomi is one huge red herring.
though thats only for the OVA and anime really, the manga/game prove otherwise. just saying that BRS could still have her own personality different from her, as in give a different kind of setting if the focus was wanted on the action side.


yeah your right on that. and that also pretty much nulls the argument that changing DM design was fine since that means there was no special relationship, or difference, on mato and yomi to the one in the OVA
