Weiß Survive
ヴァイス・サヴァイヴTakeshi was just an ordinary guy until a perfectly innocent study session with Michi - the most beautiful girl in the school - ended up with him being mysteriously transported into the strange dimension known as the Weiss Schwarz Battle Space. Once there, a crazy but enthusiastic old man informs him that he is the chosen warrior and must win a succession of card battles to get back home. The only problem: he doesn't know how to play! However, with the expert Michi ready to teach him the ins and outs of this bizarre and improbably slapstick card game, Takeshi will learn the ropes and get ready for the card battle of a lifetime.

Well where to start with this well... I think this is going to be more of a rant than a review so here it goes.
Weiß Survive is based off a real life card game called weiss schwarz released by the companion Bushiroad who also released Cardfight!! Vanguard i have not played game of weiss schawarz this anime makes me not want to give it even a try for the following reasons
1. Each episode is only a small 2:30 and has absolutely no story line well it does but almost unnoticeable
2. The amount of un-needed fan service in this is just un-needed
3. The anime references although make the real life card game good just make the game look like a complete *********
4. Early episodes it "explains the rules of the game" well in what was it 62x fast forward so throughout the whole anime you have no idea of the games mechanics except for the fact that you lose when you hit level 4 which really is not enough to understand a card game anime. Though they do explain small additional rules along the way it really is not enough for you to understand whats happening
5.The characters are just stupid there is no development what so ever.There is just the short tempered hot head girl, the lewd guy and of course the perverted old man
6. Though there is some intended humor in this IT IS NOT FUNNY no jokes at all made me laugh once
7. In all anime story is the one thing that pulls the action the characters the everything together, in this anime how ever you feel like you just jumped in to a 300+ episode anime right in the middle with no knowledge at all and not understand anything at all, like really watch the first episode and you will understand what I mean
All in all this is the worst anime I have ever seen yet and I hope I never ever see something like this again.
Recommendation: Don't ask me to recommend this to any one if you are looking for a card game anime this is not worth anyone time even though the first season is only about 36 min long (16 2:30 episodes) I would instead turn you towards the Yu-Gi-Oh series which has the original Gx Zds and Zexal which are all entertaining watches and if not that Cardfight!! Vanguard which explains the rules of the game! So to summerize this whole rant into a few words, Don't watch this **** anime.
