Dragon's Dogma review: Is the anime good?

Reviews for Dragon's Dogma have been trickling in over the past week and seem generally positive, but the show has been the subject of some minor criticism.

IGN gave the series a solid 7/10 score, praising the action and visuals but lamenting the unfocused scripts, which fail to make the most of an already brief runtime.

AV Club echoed that sentiment, calling the series "fun, if forgettable" and awarded it a C+, agreeing that the writing could be sharper.

What is Dragon's Dogma about?

Based on the video game of the same name, Dragon's Dogma tells the story of a man seeking revenge on the dragon who destroyed his home.

His epic quest will see him battle a legion of monsters resembling the seven deadly sins, with each episode featuring a different dangerous encounter.
