Overview

Invertia was a meteor storm that caused an unprecedented disaster during the 20th century. Because of this disaster, numerous cities around the world were destroyed. However, within the meteor, an unknown element called mana was discovered. It allowed human technology to make rapid strides giving rise to a new species of super-powered humans, the Star Pulse Generation (Genestella). The Festas (Star Warrior Festivals) host battles between Genestella at a city of six academies called “Rikka,” also commonly known as “Asterisk.” Scholarship student Ayato Amagiri transferred into Seidoukan Academy in order to fulfill his own wish, swearing he too will fight in this city.

Featured Comments/Tips

this anime ended some time ago

Well, that show had potential. Apparently they had planed at least a second season. Otherwise it should have ended with the 20th. episode. The last 5 episodes were rather vexing. What happened to Ayato'#39;s sister? What was that magistrates role in this? There ist so much conspiracy going on, it'#39;s surprising they all keep their sanity.

Featured User Reviews

The Asterisk War (Netflix) Genre; Pretty slight ecchi and harem, but mainly action I think it started somehow interesting, but became repetitive, especially in the tournament. A plot that is barely advancing, of which the tournament takes a large place in, add random weapons each is carrying and you got your pretty average action anime. The initial plot device of the lost sister doesn't advance much at all, and when you got a 16yo protagonist that is not a pervert, but seemingly seems to see a 13yo naked or her having feelings for him or whatever, that's pretty cringe. There are also some concepts, such as among special humans are even more special ones, but there is simply no difference in the story line regarding them - why introduce that in the first place then? There are tons of anime that have done that much better, where these even more rare humans are often ousted from society, like the cursed children in Black Bullet. The fights in this anime often come over as cheap as well as randomly, think being it closely to I am almost to loose, but this anime just randomly puts down a random weapon concept to have me win this fight! And why is it even named like that, there isn't a war at all in here. :confused: Honestly, at some point I just didn't care about anything in the anime at all. Rating: 4/10
