Having crashed on top of a cliff, the ship falls even lower, dragging Laina and Orica with it. Our heroes meet in an unknown place.

6. Walkure Romanze

Genres: Action, Romance, Sports, Ecchi, Harem, School

This anime about knights tells the story of Takahiro Mizuno and all the characters surrounding him (the vast majority of which are female) as they go about their school life. Takahiro is a Begleiter (a German word that the internet tells me can translate to ‘companion’), and most of the young women around him are knights, training hard to hone their jousting skills. A Begleiter is a mix of a squire, assistant, and coach, so a knight must have a good Begleiter. Takahiro happens to be one of the best ones out there, so he is highly sought out by the knights, and needless to say, they’re all female. There are probably some male knights around – I mean, Takahiro used to be one – but none seem interested in enlisting Takahiro’s help, nor do any get any lines or screentime even. Funny, that.

In general, the story was interesting, the art was beautiful, and the characters are well done. So if you’re a fan of anime with knights and horses. This show is for you.

Lords and mages fight for power and survival and prioritize that over the wellbeing and prosperity of the people. The continent is at war and Theo, Siluca, and their companions must contend with the status quo.

In general, the story is fast-paced and jumps right into it, but along the way, it explains everything. The animation is extremely good, the fantasy world is great, and the characters are pretty good. Some side characters were hard to keep track of but the main cast was very enjoyable. The action was very well done. The romantic subplot was very enjoyable even if it could have used more time. Some parts of the show felt a bit rushed. Very satisfying finale otherwise. Worth a watch especially if you like fantasy anime about knights.

2. Campione!

Genres: Comedy, Fantasy, Romance

This anime about knights is set in the modern-day and begins with a normal, somewhat lackadaisical main protagonist, Kusanagi Godou who is ignorant to all of the magic presents in the world. One day, while unknowingly delivering a precious magical artifact as an errand for his grandfather, he encounters a Great Knight and gets caught up in the world of magic. In an overwhelming series of events, he defeats a god using his magical artifact, and thus begins Campione!

Straightforwardly, Campione! is an uncomplex, linear, story that typifies the bash-em-up shounen/ecchi anime with set in the premise of Greek and Roman mythology. The characters were well developed, everyone had a purpose of being there and they were interesting. The art style was ok, but the fight animations were so good.

1. Black Clover

This is a story of two kids who are orphans, brothers, and rivals with the same goal to be the strongest. However one has no personality and the other is someone who is talentless when it comes to magic, however, he doesn’t give up. moreover, one of the brothers does get a lot of screen time and doesn’t feel like the main character and is more like a minor yet still develops his skill at the same rate if not faster than the protagonist. the final arc has a steady build-up with a good climax at just over 100eps, I’d say it shows what the 100eps of preparation did for our protagonist and rival.

Overall, this is a good anime about knights, where someone with no magic like Asta wanna become the magic emperor, and not to mention he eventually gets some sort of magic powers and he has a demon inside him that might get unleashed or give him powers.
So it’s a very interesting knights anime to watch, but generally, they kinda go off the main story in a lot of episodes, and also the character development is great but it does not get a good screen time amount.

Black Clover has such a good story and Animation, and everything about it is thrilling to watch. worth the try.
