This anime deserves all the praise it gets. Its got absolutely fantastic animation and art, and the sound is above average in every regard. The anime is head and shoulders above everything released this season. But it isnt the art, sound, soul or tempo that makes this anime amazing. Its the unpredictability.
There is shock after shock. Genuine ones. The characters are given more love than screen time and the anime genuinely grips you. You feel the way they feel. You feel part of a system. Its not because its the best story, premise or situation. Its not even character development. Its the simplest formula, you're given something and then its taken away. You want more. You're given more only for it to be taken away. The anime was slow at times, but it kept moving forward. It is worth investing your time in. Watch the first 6 episodes and you'll get an idea that this isnt your normal run of the mill shonen.
