Beauty, love, despair, horror, and more, shared
Before the end of the first episode the beauty of the animation, eclectic characters and unusual storytelling had sunk hooks in and wouldn't let go.It's an interesting anime that proves tropes exist for a reason, beauty can exist within horror and pain...
Even the insanity of the first few episodes served a purpose, and had mad science I can realistically see happening.
For all the things to got "right" it's still imperfect and at times very cliched (they are there for a reason), but it was satisfying to see another example of great anime.
Note:
Those who don't enjoy story driven, character growth based stories will likely hate this.
Pro's:
Great intro and soundtrack.Character Archetypes fit in the narrative.Quality storytelling.No filler episodes.Predictability that serves a purpose.Full story arc.
Con's:
First few episodes have an almost distracting amount of chaos in them, and can turn people off.Predictable, it's important for the story but would loved a surprise or two.
score 8/10
