Personal Impressions & Brainrots
"The main character, Leonardo Watch, makes a terrible mistake at the start of the series that ends with his little sister losing her sight, in exchange for him receiving the โAll-Seeing Eyes of Godโ. As you can imagine, this affects him heavily. He feels like such a failure, being unable to protect his sister and do the right thing when it mattered most."
"But through the course of the series, despite being unable to fix the situation, he atones for his mistake by trying to save others, and making the best of the situation. And there is one person, Klaus von Reinherz, who constantly believes in him, in his ability to do good for others and himself."
"The series itself is about how the characters are fighting an impossible fight, but are striving to protect humanity with everything they have. Other than Klaus, they are not exactly paragons of society. These are flawed people who are living their lives, doing their jobs, and helping others when they can."
Klaus von Reinherz x Leonardo Watch(KuraLeo)
Trope: Size Difference, Heart of Gold x Hapless HeroThese two are the so adorable. Klaus is a gentleman and treats Leo with sincere respect, and ends up healing the scars in Leo's heart.
Zapp x Zed(ZZ)
Trope: Yin and YangCouldn't be more different, but these two need each other to be whole. Both in their battle styles and personalities, they balance each other out.
Klaus x Stephen(KuraSte)
Trope: Loyal to a faultSteven actively sacrifices himself and his personal sanity to protect Klaus and the rest of Libra.
Klaus and the rest of Libra protect Leo and a transformed child from the Charops Jinko vessel.
Kekkai Sensen Back 2 Back Vol. 10 Ch. 28The one thing that I really appreciate about Kekkai Sensen is that it's not afraid to show the ugliest parts of humanity. Innocent children have been exploited for a supernatural weapon and Leo makes the decision to save a child from getting pulled into the ritual. He struggles valiantly, running through the entire city and avoiding every bounty hunter and eventually reaches Klaus. Klaus understands Leo's pain and struggle instantly, and chooses to support Leo's decision to protect the transformed child. Klaus shows why he's THE hero of humanity, and why the rest of Libra love him so much.
Two blood breeds question Klaus: "Those children are beyond saving...what is it that drives you so? For the little bit of Life you have left, you're throwing it completely away right now. It's too naive to call it compassion. Answer me, Fang Hunter." to which Chain responds:
"Fools. There's no reason for him to answer that. He's our leader"
- The music for the series is an absolute banger!
My Fanworks & Fanfics
Sweater Curse
CompletedLeo wants to get Klaus a present for Christmas, but heโs not sure what to get him (and heโs woefully low on funds). Plus, would getting your (super hot) boss (that you may have a crush on) a present be coming on too strong? Heโs not sure what to do, until K.K. gives him a great idea >:)

being an inconvenience is a skill

Zed has a new job working as a bartender at a swanky lounge in Hellsalem's Lot. Naturally, Zapp has to show up to be a pest about it. Much to Zed's shock, though, he may have more motive than just making his life miserable.

Leo's feelings for his boss, Klaus Von Reinherz, are difficult to suppress. So when a rogue Alterworld hormone renders him a quivering, needy mess, why does Klaus have to be the only one in the office?

by WattStalf
Leo is a photography student at a private university, and due to his scholarship, he has to take specific classes, which is why, in his second semester, he finds himself studying theology under Steven Starphase. However, he soon realizes he's far more interested in the teacher than the subject, and after a few off-campus encounters, he wonders if that feeling might be mutual.
