I’ve been reading the light novel version of “Failure Frame” for some time and have grown to appreciate its story. Naturally, I was excited when the anime adaptation was announced. The anime is produced by Seven Arcs, a studio that, while not a powerhouse, has created some decent anime that I’ve enjoyed.
Overall, I thought the anime wasn’t bad. However, the first five episodes had a distracting tendency to switch back and forth between 2D and 3D character animation during conversation scenes. They also used 3D heavily for the monsters, but that wasn’t nearly as irritating. After the week break following episode 5, they stopped using 3D for simple scenes, and the overall quality seemed to improve.
The story isn’t groundbreaking, but it has enough twists on familiar Isekai tropes to keep it interesting, is essentially it's Touka's story of revenge against the goddess that thew him away. I’m hoping it will get a second season, as that’s where the story really starts to shine.
