Anime Review: Arcana Famiglia: The Night of The Birthday(1.01)

                                Arcana Famiglia: The Night of The Birthday(1.01)Review

Arcana Famiglia is about an organization of vigilantes who protects their island from outside threats and other dangers and use powers from arcana cards to help them do so. On the "Papa" of the family 59th birthday he announces that he's going to retire soon and that he'll hold a tournament were all members with arcana powers fight to determine who's the strongest. The winner will become the new Papa of the family and will marry his daughter Felicita.

 Felicita doesn't wish to be married so she does her best to appose her father which in this family means fight him in which she throws a knife and many kicks but Papa is able to beat her so he tells her she's not worthy to choose her own path. Liberta also tries to challenge Papa but Nova steps between him and Papa those two looked like they were going to fight but then Debito and Pace intervened and stop the fight. Papa then announces that if someone wins the tournament and wishes not to marry Felicita they don't have to and Mama tells Felicita there's away for her to win the tournament and choose her own path.

The episode ends with Liberta and Nova both telling Felicita that if they win they'll wish for her freedom. Pretty much everyone else, except Luca Felicita's attendant, is looking forward the chance of making Felicita's his wife.

I loved this episode and the series so far. I think the world, the plot and characters that have been established so far are really interesting. I really love how the episode opened with the main characters taking down the criminals in a fight that involved swords, knives, guns, and explosions. I also really like the idea of arcana card powers and I'm interested in learning what everyones card is and what the power that card has. I also loved the animation style. Please tell me your thoughts on this episode.
