Zero no Tsukaima Series
Tagged under J.C. Staff, Series.
The Familiar of Zero follows the adventures of the protagonists Louise and her familiar Saito. Louise is a second year student at the Tristain
Academy of Magic. In this world, those who can use magic are either mages or nobles, and those who cannot use magic are
known as "commoners" or "plebeians".
Louise is terrible at magic, and can never use it the way she wants to, as
her attempts of using magic ends up as a general explosion. She is given the nickname "Louise the Zero" by her
classmates, due to the inability to use any of the four common magic elements, whereby a mage's power is determined by
the number of elements they can use ranging from a single element, one (dot mage), two (line) three (triangle) and four
(square). Early in the school year, the second year students summon their familiars; this is considered a special ritual
where a mage summons their eternal protector and partner, which usually is some sort of magical creature. Louise manages
to summon a human commoner named Saito Hiraga, leaving her totally humiliated. Due to the sacredness of the ritual,
Louise is left with no choice but to reluctantly accept Saito as her familiar. She proceeds to treat Saito as any other
familiar only worse, making him sleep on a bed of hay and beats him with a whip for little to no reason, among other
things.
Louise and Saito's relationship's develop during the course of the story to the point where they
risk their lives to save the other. Though, Saito is usually the one to do so since Louise is almost always the one in
danger. At one point in the story, Saito confesses his love to Louise, but she doesn't believe him until much later.
Together they face many mysteries and uncover unexpected truths, including the nature of Saito's mysterious power, and
the truth behind Louise's inability to cast magic.

Syeung321's Zero no Tsukaima Tv Review
Rated:
Overall, i thought the anime was just fantastic! Although i don't totally et the point... but whatever... As i said before, the humourous twists and situations were simply hilarious and really makes the audience empathise with the main characters. There are some gross bits related to Kirche with Saito (i covered my eyes at those parts) but as they say, alls well that ends well.
So.. if you like a good laugh combined magic (i definately do), cute girls and romance, this is the anime for you. ^-^.

Had funny moments. Siesta got on my nerves so much. Louise and Saito made a cute couple in my opinion. Louise, Saito and the whole crew are back for one last season, and if this first episode is any indication, it just might be the best one of them all. Now, I’ll admit that I say this despite rather fuzzy memories of the first three seasons. But I do remember the plot was sometimes shoved aside while the ecchi took over. Well, not this time! After a quick reintroduction to the characters, we go straight into the plot. Queen Henrietta wants Louise and the crew to head off to Romalia, the local Italy/Rome expy, and meet up with their leader, Pope Vittorio Serevare. We find out that Tiffania is a void user, and so is the Pope, and that the blond bishie who was first introduced back in ~Futatsuki no Kishi~, Julio, is the Pope’s familiar. We’re also treated to a great fight scene of Saito and Louise versus some mirror thieves that ends with Saito blundering into Tiffania’s familiar summoning ritual. Phew! Fortunately, none of this felt rushed at all. Events flowed naturally from one to the next, making for a really easy to digest episode. Plus, it managed to avoid two pet peeves of mine in regards to fiction. First, none of the characters were idiots. In many shows – and Zero no Tsukaima has been guilty of this before – the author makes characters do stupid things in a transparent attempt to further the plot. Here, while Saito and Louise do get into a rather silly argument, that’s pretty much normal for those two. What’s more, the ploy to Saito and Louise used to beat the tattoed thief was actually quite clever. I’m not going to lie, I cheered when I saw that : ) Secondly, I feel like the plot was not only setup, but it started to move forward. Jacques’ capture was especially surprising to me, though there was also the deal with Tiffania’s summoning ritual that has her going all doki doki when she sees Saito. If I had one complaint about this episode, it would be that last part. From the look of things, Saito probably just became Tiffania’s familiar as well. I mean, Louise yelling “why don’t you just become her [Tiffa's] familiar!” is a dead give away. Still, that’s a minor complaint in the face of an all around excellent first episode. For me, Zero no Tsukaima is one of the shows that really accelerated my love for anime, so I was going to watch this season through to the end no matter what. I’m just glad that it’s looking like this will be a treat rather than a chore.
back07 rated 8.75:A normal high school student, Hiraga Saito, is transported into another world. The witch who summoned him is Louise. Although very cute, she is also very haughty and has no talent for magic. In fact, she is popularly known as "Louise the Zero" after the success rate of her magic. Before Saito could gain his bearings, Louise suddenly pushes her lips to his. Mysterious letters appear on the back of his hand and he becomes her familiar spirit.
JackoSlacko rated 9.00:Finished Watching ZnT Season 3
I have to say the ending of Season 3 was great and i liked to see more Romance going!
Though the Opening Songs isn't that good which is the only problem but overall this Anime is really Great!
Can't Wait for Season 4!
okacu95 rated 9.75:i think zero no tsukamia it by far the best anime. i dont know why its sooo good but i think that the maker of zero no tsukamia should make more epesodes. when i finished watching them i kind of felt deppressed to know that there wasent a season 4 espically since zero no tsukamia has still got a bit to go and enemies to defeat so even it has been 2 years i still think that the person who made it is still making it
harlequinrush rated 7.50:First and second seasons were wonderful, but the third season is what pulls this series down for me. Character designs are loveable, and the style is adorable, but not too moe. Animation is nice, and the story for the first two seasons is heartbreakingly cute.
Third season is fine, but the ending is terrible compared to the first two seasons.
