Divine Gate is an anime series from Tokyo MX that aired in 2016. The show is a blend of fantasy, action, and adventure, featuring an intriguing world filled with magical gates that connect different planets and dimensions. The plot of the show follows the journey of three main protagonists - Aoto, Akane, and Midori - who are all striving to reach the Divine Gate, a legendary portal that is said to grant any wish to those who reach it. However, the journey to the Divine Gate is by no means an easy one, as the trio must overcome various obstacles and challenges along the way, both external and internal.

One of the unique aspects of Divine Gate is the world-building. The show features multiple planets and dimensions, each with its own distinct ecosystem, culture, and society. The gates themselves are also a fascinating concept, as they can be used to traverse the universe, but also have the potential to disturb the balance of power and change the world irreversibly. As such, the Divine Gate is a coveted prize for many factions and individuals, leading to the formation of alliances, rivalries, and conflicts.

The characters of Divine Gate are another strength of the show. Aoto is a brooding, emotionally distant young man who harbors a deep grudge against the Divine Gate and seeks revenge for a past misdeed. Akane, on the other hand, is a cheerful, optimistic girl who views the Divine Gate as a symbol of hope and a chance to bring happiness to others. Midori is a stoic, taciturn warrior who values strength and discipline above all else, but is haunted by a traumatic past.

Along their journey, the trio encounters various other characters, both allies and enemies. Some of the most notable supporting characters include Arthur, the enigmatic leader of the organization known as the Round Table; Loki, a mischievous trickster who delights in causing chaos; and Bedivere, a chivalrous knight with a tragic history.

One of the defining themes of Divine Gate is the exploration of human emotions and motivations. Many of the characters are driven by their desires, whether it be for power, revenge, love, or friendship. However, their journey also exposes them to the darker aspects of these emotions, such as jealousy, anger, and despair. Through their trials, the characters must confront their own inner demons and decide what truly matters to them.

Visually, Divine Gate is a treat for the eyes. The character designs are unique and memorable, with each character having their own distinct look and personality. The backgrounds and environments are also stunning, with vivid colors and intricate details that bring the various worlds of the show to life. The animation is smooth and dynamic, particularly in the action scenes, which are fast-paced and adrenaline-fueled.

Another notable aspect of Divine Gate is the music. The show features a diverse soundtrack, ranging from orchestral pieces to J-pop songs. The opening theme, "One Me Two Hearts" by Hitorie, is an energetic rock tune that perfectly captures the spirit of the show. The ending theme, "Contrast" by Vistlip, is a more melancholic ballad that provides a fitting counterpoint to the climactic events of each episode.

Overall, Divine Gate is a captivating anime series that offers a thrilling journey through a fantastical universe. With memorable characters, stunning visuals, and a compelling storyline, it is a must-watch for fans of the fantasy genre.

Divine Gate is a series that is currently running and has 1 seasons (12 episodes). The series first aired on January 8, 2016.
