Shuumatsu Train Doko e Iku?

A man-made creation that has warped the world into a hellish place
a phenomenon that transforms humans into something other than human when they reach a certain age
a journey of a group of girls on a train through a post-apocalyptic world to find their friend.
this anime combines three plot points that could each stand alone as separate stories, yet remarkably, it works.

The story revolves around an accident where a 7G network warped reality, turning Earth into a post-apocalyptic world. In the subsequent years, the same accident also caused some humans to transform into animals that can talk. On the other side, a group of ... girls discovers that their friend, who is essentially the one responsible for the accident, is still alive. Determined to find her, they embark on a journey by train.

The plot sounds like a fever dream, it's basically feels like when you are asleep and having a weird dream yet nobody wakes you up so it goes on and on and on,which also make this anime a very great mystery anime, because not only we don't know what the fck is going on,the characters also don't know what the fuck is going on, and the fact that it's an original story makes it even better.

The music and animation add depth to the viewing experience. The portrayal of the world's end in this anime is hauntingly beautiful, conveying a sense of serenity tinged with underlying dread.

An original show with a genuinely unique plot, it's definitely worth watching.

The sense of mystery huh. After all, who doesn't want to connect to the 7G, and warp reality right?

Story and characters: 7
For starters, I will say that the show at first does take a moment to get used to. You might be thinking 'what on earth' is going on? Why am I watching this? But as the show progresses, you'll want to stick around to see more of it. Which is mainly done by it's pacing, and sweet characters, each layered through their personalities, and what drives them. Even if they don't come across as super amazing characters, but they don't need to be. They're ... fit for purpose, and that's all you need to be a good anime. While it's not a stand out by any means. But because of those elements, it then expands the story out more for you, and you'll want to learn more about the mystery of WHY this is happening, and WHY this happened. Something we grasp and learn bit by bit as each and every episode progresses. Our four girls aren't the only main characters however, they're also joined by a mix of wild bunch, and sweet characters that fill out the casting quite nicely.

Art and sound: 8
This is where the true meat and potatoes of the whole production comes in for me. While we've got a stellar story to follow, and be invested into. here we've got quite a creative direction in terms of it's quality, and production. It's as if throughout it's mystery, they wanted to produce such a weird and colourful world, that much like other shows, you'll remember for it's aesthetics, and pallet more than anything. Wich isn't a dig at the story, but more there is a lot of creative juices with it's production of art style. Matched with a great sound quality, that really blends all well together.

Shuumatsu Train is quite an experience venture, filled with wonder and interest. With cute girls to boot. What's not to love? It make take a moment to get used to, but you'll be glad you did. Give it a go!

I am not good at reviews, but this show deserves more reviews than it has, so here I go.

If I had to imagine what one of my favorite anime would be, it wouldn't have been a surreal post-apocalyptic fever dream with casual 'slice of life' anime vibes, but here we are.

Ever get that feeling when you're watching a new anime that you're witnessing the beginning of something special? Train to the End of the World gives me that feeling, and I haven't felt that in a long time. This show toes an interesting line because I'd say at this point that it's still ... fairly family friendly - but there are a lot of dark undertones, the most obvious in the first episode being the bloody handprints and bullet holes in the armed caravan vehicles. The art, animation, sound, voice acting - all are superb. Practically every scene in the first episode would make for a great desktop background.

It is dialogue heavy - like Monogatari levels of dialogue heavy. All of the conversations feel natural and have great flow, and I think they are important for establishing the atmosphere the show is going for, but I know people that cannot handle that. If there were any reason to dislike the show this would probably be it.

I'm very interested in seeing how this goes. There's a lot of potential for it to go to a very dark place - the clues are certainly there - but even if it doesn't I'm still on board.
