So much to say about Haibane Renmei...everything have a perfection side and each time i watch the serie i do not understand it at 100%, why did they are born in cocoon, why people in the village not, who are those people, a story of an ideologie for what happen after life to accomplish what we wanted in the real life or a story in a other univers/concept, so much question lefted unanswered, why, why, why, if you like to ask yourself a lot a question and have some reflexion this serie will fill up your head but in a good way. I'll try to keep the rest short:
The story: Brilliant, well composed, slow and smoot, some intense moment, good suspense
The Art: like a paint hanging on a wall, very artistic
Sound: soundtrack fit so well and what about the opening and ending...i'll be a liar if i said i didn't cry once wille watching the ending
Character: every one have a distinc personnality and interesting too
Don't know if its a spoiler but: When i watch this serie for the second time i realise that one of the two main character is actualy only used to promote the second one, and the serie is all about that second character and that make my heart beat for that serie.
(sorry for my bad english, it's my second language)
