(This is my first review and i'm not english, so i'm sorry for my language)
I will be clear : this is not a bad series. It isn't a cosmic rip off like many others anime but this is not either a good anime.
First the story is fair, the world is quite intriguing but this is clearly not a revolution. The scenario is really slow, some episode are the same quality level as a filler episode in Naruto. This is unequal and sometime totally useless to the advancement of the story.
For the art, this is classic. Too classic... The animation is really static, and the background
...
is cheap.
The sound is one of the real problem. The voice acting is slovenly, some characters like Shuu don't act, they just read a text. And there is no english or french version, so we are convicted to ear one of the worst dubbing of history. And for the music, it's decent but there is only 15 tracks different, and we ear some of them every episode. The track " One of the Few" is exasperating ! There is only two tracks who are more than decent : "Resource" & "Brick in the wall".
The characters are like the story : too classic. And this is really difficult to be concerned by there action. May, Ein & Zero are clearly the best characters because there are well develloped. Xuan (maybe not his name in the english traductionl) is my favourite characters but, like Rosso, she's not really useful. Rosso & Xuan maybe deserve a better devellopment. Fear is a great deception, because she is the best character and his devellopment is totally stopped in the middle of the anime. Shuu is basically a clone of Shinji in NG Evangelion, but in more weak. The story don't progress because of him. And finally, Dolly is insupportable. He is a sort of comic relief and you will probably want to punch your TV evrey time he is here.
To finish, the biggest problem of this anime is that it's not pleasant to watch. When I watched it, I was bored and I look at my timeline everytime because this is tedious. And this is why I can't recommend this serie to everybody. This is too classic for an anime, a distopian story, a travel story or whatever. Clearly, only the more motivated people will continue to watch this after the fifth episode.
