Very well, so this is going to be my first review for the site so I want to remember to someone who might be reading this review merely for curiosity or boredom that this is just my opinion.
This anime taking in count that it´s an adaption of a manga has to get some credit for something some might have missed, the direction is sublime Tomohiko Itou gets an bullseye on this department, he can show what the characters are feeling by the angel and position of the camera, the background and the colors help a freacking lot too, this guy also manages to use symbolism
...
in a great way, for more information on this I highly encourage you to watch the video of "Mother´s Basement" of Whats in a scene of the anime in question.
The animation is fluid and good but nothing to freak about, sometimes it can really shine but other times is just standard.
For the record I really like Satoru as a character, he is the lovable corky, an every man at the beggining, and for me his evolution as an character seems fair and not pushed at all, but at the same time and this might sound contradictory he really doesnt seem so interesting to me what I mean is that he is just other "Im going to protect all my friends" kind protagonist which is fine he is not bad, simply... kind of dull, also I think his power could´ve been use a lot more but for what we got Im fine with it, and about the rest of the characters either the lest interesting ones got a lot of spotlight or the ones who seem interesting recieved almost none, and this really bothered me beacuse I wanted more of the Mom and Jun I found them interesting and deserved to have more spotlight than "Mr. looking cool" Kenya, that might be just a personal opinion but I still believed they should have explored more the charactes. Talking about characters the villian is awesome, I love that guy and his ark on the story is the only one I found a good closure to, I don´t want to talk more about this theme beacuse I would be entering into Spoiler Land and I think this series is more enjoyable being blindfolded.
For closure I want to talk about the soundtrack, and damn the did also an exelcious job here, Re:Re by Asian Kung Fu Generation and Sore wa Chiisana Hikari no Youna by Sayuri are song that have stucked with me for the entire run of the series I just love´em and the background music pitch perfect, I only complain that in some parts the music comes in when I think it really shouldn´t but for the rest I love it.
Overall this series is good and really entertaining, it will catch your interest and will not let you go until you finish it, I would say give it a try and enjoy it the most you can.
