Pay attention to character interactions over actual plot, and you'll be much more satisfied. And good luck figuring out what the deal is with Human-form weapons.)Ĭonclusions? Well, it was a fun series to watch, but you'll get MUCH more out of it if you focus on a character driven storyboard. (They also never explain the nature of a Xam'd. A LOT of episodes are devoted to Nakiami's side trips, where she always seems to be preventing some poor sap from being engulfed by the Xam'd in him. Also, side stories seem to be the order of the day. In other regards, it's confusing and disappointing: Things keep happening to Akiyuki with no background reason, and the whole concept of a Xam'd is some kind of forbidden topic. You understand their hopes and dreams, and why they may be sabotaging their own attempts to reach them.
In some regards, it's amazing: The characters are brought to life fully. No justification is ever given for this war, and for some unknown reason the Tessik are ostracized by everybody. The world as it is presented is split into two warring hemispheres, with some kinda naturalist 'Tessik' tribe caught in the middle. On the one hand, we are basically following Akiyuki on his journey becoming a Xam'd, which is done quite well in terms of painting a comprehensive picture of the trials he endures. While the animation is superb, the soundtrack is hauntingly good, and the characters are generally quite fleshed out (just enough info for you to find them interesting).
Catches you instantly, and gets you all excited for what looks (judging from the animation quality) an awesome show. Keep that in mind if you plan on watching this anime.įirst off, check out the OP.
As many people have already said, this anime is produced by the same people who brought you Eureka 7.
