So what do you guys think about this series so far?
I feel they really took a lot of the same elements from Shakugan no Shana but simply warped the plot, some of the characters, and bam, you get Kaze no Stigma.
Nevertheless, so far, its been pretty good, so I'm excited to watch further.

LOL, I kinda know what you mean... But I was little bit disappointed that, it wasn't really serious anime... There was here and there comedy that wasn't funny. I really wish they kept it serious.

I like the main guy who is a total ass. a nice change from the nice guy leads...

Well, i dont like the fact how the main heroine is a bit "shounen - ish" type of girl but i do like the guy cuz hes cool XD (and i like his past...dark and well, my typical ideal past). And no im not gay (not that being gay is bad...or me discriminating gay people...)

I dont get how its got same elements from Shakugan no Shana O.o but overall, the anime is good and i have been watching it but it sucks cuz the website i watched it went down :( so the last one i saw was episode 7 (which is far behind...i assume).

Ah well, its been good so far and it has action in it so its recommendable :D

It's got good action scenes, I like that. But aren't the male and female lead related? if they're from the same family, and there seems to be a crush between them. that's kind of creepy.

It... uh, has a lead female with a fire sword. That's pretty much it, after watching the first 7 episodes I have no idea why so many people seem to be making the show out to be some huge Shana clone. I wish they'd taken the same composer for Stigma though :( Kou Itani's soundtrack for Shana was fantastic, whereas Stigma's is... somewhat lacking.

It splits pretty well. Most of the stuff centred around the girl (yes, I've forgotten her name already) is a little bit tedious and rests far too much on 'I've seen this so many times before, stop it already' type stuff. Like arguing with her annoying friends and random upskirt shots at inappropriate moments in the middle of battle. Kazuma, on the other hand, is a breath of fresh air compared to most male leads, and at least when they're both on the screen at the same time he makes her somewhat more tolerable.

Either way, while I could complain about some things there's still plenty to make the next episode worth looking forward to.

Well, i only watched the first episode so its very early to sya anything, but i'll definetely watch a couple more episodes before deciding if i'm gonna keep on watching it.

The episode really, wasnt a great first episode. First, the characters were really abruptedly presented. Lots of thing don't make sense yet and it's hard to see in what direction this series is going + the female lead's design looks cruelsome u.u"

i know what you mean, everytime i see the female character fall more the guy, it just feels weird, but other then that i really like this anime, the fights are really good.

Yea story was a little it could be more of a romance anime than comedy sometimes the joke aren't really funny you know if ayano wasn't really that short tempered she would be pretty cute but still is not bad has anime i love the romance one =O got any suggestion for me too?

I have watched 16 episodes so far and I love it the art is good and I'm enjoying the storyline can't wait to see more.

Let see, flaming swords, red hairs, short tempered, hate to admit their loves for the male leads, incease in fighting ability when Kazuma/Yuji is present, gets jealoused easily, and only the guys are the ones with brains.
