I'm surprised not to find this here sooner. Reach halfway through Sora no Woto, and the real sinister backstory of the setting starts to poke through. Suddenly all the musical tones, all the moments of expressionlessness, the whole show is tinged with a huge stain of despair and oppression. Kind of like how Scrapped Princess pulled it off when the big tweest happens, just a thousand times subtler. But that silent slap to the face leaves a huge, resounding echo through the viewer.
A-1 Pictures has trolled us again (Birdy the Mighty: DECODE, Kannagi, Valkyria Chronicles); this show is kicking major ---.
In both, humanity lives in the remnants of once-great civilizations. The arts of ancient humans are far beyond current humans' capabilities.
