Multi-colored golden swords and harem kissings ahoy! I wanted a spectacle, and this finale certainly serves one up.

Campione! – 12

「天叢雲劍」 (Ten Murakumo Tsurugi)
“The Sword of Ama no Murakumo”

Bravo, Campione!. You’ve finally fulfilled your innate destiny with those kissing scenes. Could be slighty NSFW.

Campione! – 11

「太刀の媛巫女」 (Tachi no Hime Miko)

Not the best of starts to the final arc of Campione!.

Campione! – 10

「荒ぶる魔王、太陽の勇者」 (Saburu Maou , Taiyou no Yuusha)
“The Turbulent Demon King, The Sun Hero”

I want to get excited about it, but how can I even be moderately excited about an episode that pretty much serves the bare minimum?

Campione! – 07, 08

「風よ、雨よ、狼よ／英雄推参」 (Kaze yo , Ame yo , Okami yo / Eiyu Suisan)
“Wind, Rain, Wolf / A Hero Arrives”

The one thing about Campione! that irks me the most is that it truly has some great ideas, but its execution can never match up to the potential.

Campione! – 05, 06

「好日ならざる日々／王たちは話し合う」 (Kou Nichi Narazaru Hibi / Ou Tachi wa Hanashiau)
“Unpleasant Days / The Kings Converse”

After a breather episode, Campione! embarks on its next arc, and this is definitely shaping up to be better than the last.

「遠方より敵来たる／まつろわぬアテナ」 (Enpo Yori Teki Kitaru / Matsurowanu Atena)
“From Afar, An Enemy Comes / Rogue Athena”

Deep kissing magic and talking your opponents to death, eh? This show sure is going places.
