The first thing you'll notice about this anime, especially if you are watching this in high resolution, is the amazing art you will see. Fantastic.
Story: I was a bit touch and go with this anime. I dropped it after the first 4 episodes and then decided to pick it up again and then dropped it again. The story is a bit unique in my opinion.. I haven't seen an anime/manga yet that has a similar story line. The story tends to jump around a lot - Excalibur? Seriously, wtf? They could of cut that easily and saved two episodes. It just seems like its taking the writers too long to explain the main story. From what I've heard it also tries to change into a more dramatic anime half way in the series.
Art: Art is amazing. Not only is the art great but there is great camera direction which is one of the things that'll get me to keep watching an anime.
Sound: I don't really like to review sound in anime .. you'd think i'd be interested in it since I'm studying record engineering . But if I were to, I'd say that the voice actors did a fine job.
Characters: The main characters I liked a lot - their relationships and build up were well written. The side characters I could of easily done with out, looking at you Excalibur. I also dropped this anime 20 episodes into it because I sort of lost that excitement that I got from the characters - they were starting to become more annoying than the intial "Wow" that I got from them.
Enjoyment: As I've said before - I found myself to enjoy this anime .. at least until it started becoming a more dramatic series and disrupting the original flow of the anime even more so than it already has.
Overall: Take a few test watches for a few episodes.. It might be a bit hard to get into but it may not. It ended up becoming a so so anime to me because of the dramatic change and the lack of enjoyment I got out of the characters in the middle of the series.
