Story:10- First i would like to say i will not give you a synopsis (just bare bones of what you are getting yourself into) you can find that somewhere else. This show is very complicated and you are thrown a vast amount of information in one of the first few episodes. This may make you believe that this is a strong example of a plot hole filled anime, but man you would be wrong. All the questions that you ask throughout this anime are answered by the end with mouth dropping results. Another thing about this plot is that it keeps you guessing, trying to predict what happens next but you wont find it. This show is anything but predictable and takes you on a long journey over 25 good episodes.
Characters:10- Ok so here i will not give you the entire cast of amazing characters, but i will give you the best of the main five you will meet in the beginning. Out of the main five the only ones that i found interesting was Saki who is the protagonist who you follow throughout the story. she is not generic but at the same time not very compelling. Next you have Satoru who seems to be the more bull headed and could be seen as the tactician. But where the characters really shine is with Squealer and Kiroumaru; i cant tell you why without spoiling, but they are the best part of the show when it comes to the character section.
Art and Animation:8- When it comes to this section i think that the art cant be judged because that is just your personal preference whether you enjoy it or not. For animation though i would say this was above average but definitely not the best i have seen. Their is good animation thoughout and i never saw a weak point in the series.
Enjoyment: In my opinion this show was a high 9 but after you get all the questions answered you cant help to give it a 10. you get a great resolution that brings you a great understanding on how they got to this Utopian society. This show will keep you guessing and you will be 100% happy you watched it. But in the end i am a true believer that nothing is perfect and the place that i believe this show lacks is its pacing. at some points it can be a little slow but that is the only negative that i believe this show has.
Pros:
-Story is compelling
-Fantastic ending
-All questions are answered(no plot holes)
-Great character and lore behind the universe.
Cons:
-alittle slow paced
Overall: Overall this show is a probably the best Utopian story out there that has fantastic characters, a story that is compelling, and a great resolve in the end to let you know how they got to where they are in the end. So basically what im saying is that i dont care who you are this is a must watch. So what are you still doing here go watch it.
Also thank you to everyone who took the time to read this review and have a great day!!
