I will start with this, there are people who will say that this anime's pacing is too slow. I simply say they're morons who didn't understand what they are watching.
Now with Hai to Gensou no Ketsu (no Yume) people immediately think action adventure and when they do they think the pacing is horridly slow.
However, too those who actually understood what Hai to Gensou no Ketsu is - which is a slice of life in a adventure fantasy setting btw - then this glaring problem is gone. Well in fact it didn't exist in the first place, because again, if you think this is an
...
action anime you're a moron. Again repeat after me. SLICE. OF. LIFE.
Story is unique: it's the emotional behind the scenes of every RPG you've been through. Shelter, food, sleep, finances, emotional and mental strength, all those things that you have to go through in an adventure but skip to the good action bits: that's the focus of this anime. I think the best line from the anime that best describe's the whole anime is when their Leader, Manato says that "we and the goblins are fighting a battle... no living thing wants to die"
Art: Animation it's quite fluid. Fight scenes are fast, and things move accordingly, especially Yume's butt. There have been a lot of bloopers in scenes: people magically wear things and not as the camera cuts to them back and fort. But background and locations are drawn spectacularly as if you're watching a painting.
Sound: I'll be honest most of the time I don't notice the BGM, but then comes the feels train and suddenly you hear great songs... it's like they choose the soundtrack specifically so your face is always in the same look as the feels guy meme. The OP and ED aren't extraordinary but they do keep and reinforce the overall feel of the anime, so kudos to that.
Character: There are some interesting characters in this anime. However for a Slice of Life anime it has some misses in the growth on some character, lovable as they may be.
Overall it's an anime you could watch if you want to take a break from all the action animes out there while still being able to take small doses of it[action].
