Synopsis

Kaito Daimon would be a completely average high school student except for one thing: he's a "demon" at solving puzzles. Kaito is so brilliant, in fact, that when he's asked to take some 'special' tests of his unique ability, he immediately suspects that the test itself is a test. Kaito suddenly finds himself caught up in a lethal Philosopher's Puzzle made by the sinister group POG, a murderous maze of trap upon trap, where failing to solve the secret correctly will result in death! Fortunately, Kaito's skills prove up to the first test, both for himself and his childhood friend Nanoha, who is also caught up in the deadly scheme. But now that he has been designated as a Solver, he is pulled into a new life where he must travel the world with other Solvers, attempting to solve the latest deadly riddles left by POG. There's a new conundrum around every corner and each deception could lead to death, but once a riddle has been posed, you can count on Kaito to unfold, unravel and unlock it!

It's beautiful. I thought the final battle would be saved for the next season since there's only one episode left. But somehow, they managed to wrap it up and it didn't feel rushed. Sure, there are still unanswered questions, but everything that needed to be there was there. I find the ending great. Season 1 first half was quite slow, but the second half was much more engaging. Overall, it's a great anime with few reservations.

Kaito and Rook together here is like wishful thinking. This feels like the calm before the storm, a prelude to the final battle. It's a mix of emotions because, while you're excited for the finale, it's also sad to think that there's no way for them to turn around and choose a different path. It's as if fate has already made its decision.

This one has Ana's guiding moments. This episode is tense and with decent action. I feel sad for Rook who, when you really think about it, could have been a victim from the very beginning. It also ends with a strong hook, making you curious what happens next.
