The rest of the main cast includes Black Star, the little egomaniac, and his partner Tsubaki and Death the Kid, the son of Shinigami himself with his twin partners Liz and Patti. Each groups main goal is to absorb the souls of 99 humans and 1 soul in order to become a death-scythe, but that becomes unimportant upon the revelation of a plot that will plunge the world into madness.

I am sort of split over this anime. On one hand it has really good characters, great animation and an interesting, if unexplored, setting. On the other hand the story ends up a little weak because the manga is set up to go on for like 3 more years and Bones had to pull a premature ending. They did a decent job of it, but it got a little too cliche at times and a few of the villains were given anticlimactic ends compared to their buildup in the episodes before. Bones also made a few episodes that consisted of some pretty bad filler which focused on a rather annoying minor character, but its easy enough to skip over them. However, in general the good outweighs the bad. 4/5

Despite being an anime original ending, I have to say it was quite well done. Studio Bones really set the bar here for how an anime original ending should be done compared to some other series, *cough*Claymore*cough* the manga is all kinds of awesome but the anime didn't do too bad in the final arc. 4/5

Good shonen anime, well drawn and animated, funny, just the right length. 4/5.

Dear Bones, that is NOT, I repeat: NOT, how you do an ending seperate to the manga.
