Blade of the immortal is not the worst animé i have watched so far. Yes, i've seen worst but it doesn't make this a good series in my opinion. Unlike other series, i never found myself impatient to watch the next episode after watching one and to be frank, i was not impressed by the quality of the graphics or the storyline.
Sure it is interesting to watch a samourai get killed over and over again and coming back to life over and over again but it's not something you will enjoy for a long time. Sure other characters have various skills that surely differ from the main character's but in the end it was never something great that left me in a "wow" state of mind. I tried to get into the characters and their stories but all i felt was pity for the one and empathy for the main character's sister.
This animé did not make a strong impression on me so i would only recommend this if you're convinced you've watched the greatest and are looking for an average series to watch on the plane, train or car so that you don't get bored out of your mind.
