Therese's fire spell looked to be a barrier type, stationary and doesn't advance, Melty's attack was absorbed by it ineffectively to my eyes.
It was a decent enough showing of the series. There was the inevitable cuts and rushing that's standard in anime, but I was satisfied enough with it. Lecia's depiction was quite rushed and lost a lot of it's impact.
Couldn't help but laugh at Ren's internal monologue about getting stronger than Nafoumi when they're using stock recycled footage of him fighting Orange Balloons which if you remember is basically the Level 1 first battle monster of the series. You're not going to get anywhere with those Ren!
Over all I'm pretty satisfied, but there were some pretty bad parts. LOOKING AT YOU POPE BATTLE!
I don't think I'd ever rewatch the series though. I'll stick to the novels.
