Sci-fi Harry

I really liked this series. You wouldn't think it would work, but there's some quite clever aspects to it. Its incredibly difficult to explain this without giving spoilers. It does some very good jobs of torturing its characters in such a varied way that it makes those characters great. Harry really develops, and his fear is really believable. The story is cool, although the last episode leaves a little to be desired. You may have heard the ending is shit. This isn't true. It just could with a few more minutes! Still you leave the series without any sad ending you may have been fearing, ... and with no out of place fairy tale ending, but you get closure. Its a cool ending.

The art is pretty interesting, especially the opening sequence which is.. bizarre. The character design is generally nice, and in some aspects a little more realistic than usual. The soundtrack is good, I don't pay any special attention to it, but it works well with everything else.

Try this series, at least the first couple of episodes. I know it says to avoid spoilers, but this is nowhere near as bad as the spoiler that is in most of the synopsis's of this series-

In the first episode there is an almost rape scene. If that disturbs you, you may want to stay away. Its quite awkward to watch. Still- it'd be ashame to stay away over one scene. But don't say nobody warned you.

OKAY...at first i was like this would be great but....the fact that harry was little bitch and never got balls and his expression was like he got his winkie cut off every second of every episode was pissing me off..the story was good but the characters blew...THERE WAS NO character development they stayed the same through out i urge you not to watch this show..avoid if possible...I think half of my soul is gone.

I watched the whole anime, thinking that it was going to get better in some way. Unfortunately, it just kept on spiraling downwards. The animation isn't that great, and I wasn't a big fan on how the characters were drawn either.

I know most people are probably taking into consideration that Harry was just a really, really indecisive, almost annoyingly awkward character. I'm sorry, but if the main character acts like that, it's almost impossible to like the actual show. I don't think I heard Harry say anything substantial the whole entire time, and there are episodes where the longest thing he says is "I ... would like a roast beef sandwich" or something like that. The rest is usually some sort of gasping or name reiteration. There's not a lot of redeemable qualities of the guy with the most screen time, which is one of the reasons why the anime tanks.

The concept of the story is actually very interesting, and the damaging effects that comes with Harry using his psychic powers are intriguing. But after a while, it's just really hard to watch through hours of people staring at one another and trying to keep up with what's happening in the crazy story line, only to have a vague conclusion after enduring everything that went on. I often wonder why I finished the anime.
