07-Ghost review
Yo minna! I finished watching 07-Ghost and i must say it was amazing! However, i hope there will be a second season. There are many things that could still happen. I think this review will be the longest and the most filled with pics because i loved all the characters in this anime! This has never happened before. I guess it’s because of the graphics. Simply outsanding! Let me introduce you to the characters first of all:
1. Teito Klein – main character, master of the Eye of Mikhail, prince of Raggs Kingdom as he finally remembers it
2. Mikage - Teito’s best friend; initially even tho he knows that Teito was a former slave, he keeps standing by his side
3. Hakuren Oak – Teito’s roommate at church; they are paired up for the Bishop’s exam
4. Bishop Frau – saves Teito a couple of times from the Empire’s people; he is one of the 7 ghosts and is known as Zehel
5. Castor – another bishop, another one of the 7 ghosts and known as Fest
6. Labrador - another bishop, another one of the 7 ghosts and known as Profe
7. Ayanami - represents the Empire’s military; he is the main bad guy and also he appears to have something against Frau who weilds an enormous scythe that used to belong to Aya-tan.
8. Kuroyuri – one of Ayanami’s subordinates. I’m giving him his own spot here because he was one of my favorite characters even though he was on the wrong side and even though he fought Frau another of my favorites.
Ok now, the anime summary. Teito is a former slave who was sent to Barsburg Empire’s military academy because he was able to use Zaiphon which was some sort of supernatural power they used in battle. He doesn’t have any memories of his past, but his best and only friend Mikage is always there for him. After Teito passes the graduation exam along with Mikage, he encounters Ayanami and fragments of his lost memories start to come back. Ayanami is the man who killed his father. Teito attacks Aya-tan but is easily stopped and sent to prison. Mikage helps him escape and he plays the hostage role as Teito manages to get away. Ayanami uses his Zaiphon in order to stop him, but Teito is able to partially avoid it. A bishop finds him and takes the injured Teito to the church where he starts living with Frau, Castor and Labrador (the three bishops who were also three of the 7 ghosts).
Teito is the master of the Eye of Mikhail, an artifact for which his own country, Raggs Kingdom, had been distroyed. He decides to start looking for the truth behind his country’s history, his father and his tutor’s (who he had called “Father”) deaths.

Also, he is getting ready to avenge his best friend, Mikage’s death who is killed by Ayanami.
The 7 ghosts were sent to Earth by God to seal and guard Verloren, the God of Death who had fled after killing the daughter of the chief of heaven.

The 7 ghosts look a lot like this.

I’m telling you, this is one awesome anime, great characters, perfect graphics, amazing storyline and cool theme songs. It is definetly a “must see anime”. Speaking of theme songs, listen to this and tell me you don’t like it. You’ll definetly lie! 
This is the Raggs Requiem and i can’t stop listening to it! Well, i told you this would be a long review but i just really loved it and you really should watch it.
Ja ne!
