So! Why should you comfort your butt in front of the lappy get the popcorn and the diet cola?
- Pretty descent animation, awesome facial expressions (especialy Yuno's), dim backgrounds making you feel the suspence of the series even more.
- Breathtaking action scenes, plot twists one after another, fast pacing while you learn what you need to know about the characters.
- Chaotic protagonist (Yuno) who will make you fall in love with and dispice at the same time.
- B-roles who actually are important. So no useless acquaintances.
- Interest on the plot from the very first 10 minutes. Plot unfolds really smoothly.

If you are not convinced, then maybe you should continue reading my review. The dissadvantages vary from everyone's taste on animes.
- There is some kind of romance that a few fans may not find convincing, although, the plot unravels through the episodes based on the this "kind" of romance. I use the quotes, because this is a psycological thriller, not a romantic story. If you dont like any kind of romance, just trust me.... :)
- You might find the other protagonist repelling, according to you standards on the toughness and strong will you may want a character to be. But that's the spice on the rice! Most of us, if we were in this kind of twisted situation (watch the anime godammit :P ), we would probably be like Yuki!!
- Catharsis isn't always an option on psycological thrillers... And catharsis is ambiguous from viewer to viewer for this anime.
- The story isnt that much innovative, but that's not the point for this anime.

If you want my proposition, watch first Magica Madoka the series, after the series watch the 3d movie, then Nikki Mirai and finaly Deathnote.
The 3 series unravel the inner demons of the protagonists as much as the inner god of their souls.... Give it a try... PLEASE let me know if you found this review USELESS! It would make me happy to know the flaws of my way of thinking! :) :) :)
