Story
Another's story is very creative. It was very hard to stop watching this show and I just wanted to watch all of it in one go. The story is so complex with many twists and turns. The story is the best part about this show. Which is great because it's one of the most important parts of an anime. Also the ending is amazing.
Art
Being animated by P.A. Works Another has a very nice color palette. The backgrounds are brightly lit and detailed. I'm a sucker for vivid and colors and it really looks nice. The animation itself is very fluid and rarely looks bad. The character models are also very nice and each one also looks great.
Sound
I'm not very good at judging music, but it is very nice. The song "Mei Misaki Theme" is very eerie and nice. So much that I downloaded it. The op, by Ali Project, is also very awesome. It has a nice tune and represents the series's atmosphere perfectly. The ed, Annabel, is also soothing even if it doesn't really represent the series too well. I haven't really watched the English dub, but it's ok. I like the JP dub but that's mostly because of Mei's voice.
Character
There really are only 3 characters who matter. First is our main protagonist Sakikabara Kouichi. He's kinda genaric, but does have his health issues which makes him much more memorable, and soon makes him one of my favorite anime characters. Next is Mei Misaki. I love Mei waaaaaaay too much. She has amazing development and is such a cool character. She's another one of my favorite anime characters. Finally is Izumi Aizawa. She's another great character. I felt very bad for her and believe she didn't deserve anything she got.
Overall, I belive Another is one of the best anime around. If you haven't already checked it out please do so. It's available for legal streaming on Hulu and Crunchyroll. You can buy this series from Sentai Filmworks. Thank you for reading, I hope this review was helpful.
