Nagi no Asukara is a story about two races of humans. One of them lives on Earth the second in the sea. I've got to say, the setting is actually a great one and can give birth to a good story but it failed to do so.

Story: 3/10
As stated before, the setting is original. The plot line however fails to bring forth anything. To put it in simple terms, it was crap from start to end. Basically, we follow a few youngsters and their romance. There is no goal whatsoever and the romance isn't even properly developped. They completely scrapped the idea within the setting by failing to talk about it or exploit it. Sure, it is present over the whole series but except them being from the sea and the transition in between arcs, there isn't any manifestation of it. We have something awful that happens on a global scale but in a few years, the people haven't even acted when their life was endangered. Instead we have a resolution full of bullshit which smells as bad as the rest of the show.

Art: 8/8
The art was great. Unfortunately for Nagi no Asukara it isn't what makes an anime.

Sound: 7/8
OST wasn't that great. Didn't like either OP and ED.

Character: 3/10
Just how the hell can every single character fall in love with no character developpement whatsoever for more than half of them. I can't comprehend it. Also, I hate how everything went in between the characters. The interactions in between them were just bad and sometimes embrassing. Unjustified hate in between people of the Earth and the Sea. They do the same things, have the same decorations and some people of the Sea even end up leaving it for the Earth.

Enjoyment: 2/10
I could not comprehend such a high rating with the first few episodes. I had to watch the first episode three times before forcing myself to get into the show. I was expecting things to go smoother in the rest of the show because of its rating but it clearly didn't. It even got worse.

Overall: 4.6/10
This show was boatched. This series is an overflowng garbage dump. I usually hate to use 'overrated' but it can only be described as such. A last thing I want to add is that the script wasn't well-written, it was written to please a large audience. I find it very stupid how naive people can be.
