*Be patient and you will be rewarded in so many ways*
--Shinsekai Yori is a very well thought,slow paced "god" tier story.Followed by a throughout thought plot ,many many twist to satisfy every kind of curiosity and almost every viewer who will watch as many as the first 3~4 episodes.Moreover for a sci-fi its really realistic !!
-- The Art animations i "godly" and shitty at the same time, it has its own small details and other interesting stuff. What im trying to point out is that the art is ridiculously fits the show but some times there are those scenes really badly made, which stand out... (i guess we forgive them??)
--Another thing this show uses some metaphoric scenes(some are really poorly made T_T) in order to explain some mysterious situations and pass some really deep messages which is something particular and worth praising!
--The horror comes rather late but its there together with that "smell of death" around every corner.Nothing is granted,suspect everything!Another notable fact is that this show really knows how to close an episode properly.Like you can say cliffhangers always waiting at the end of each episode.
--The music is well made and fitting to the show and kinda memorable.
--Characters are kinda cliche if you ask me nothing really worth praising or mentioning. Its one of those shows you just cannot evaluate it.Same goes for their development. ITS Surely there but cannot judge if its good or bad... most likely its bad tho..
------------------------Weaknesses and personal opinions------------------------------------
-To begin with, this show is like a new world and it calls for you to explore it.Although, the anime itself keep a low profile and share information slowly(thus slow-paced).The thing is that it advances on its own giving even more new things and the it has about 7~10 mins explanation scenes...Well if that wasn't enough most of the times you get half the answer. By that i mean it explains only a portion of its "new issue" in order to keep you hooked in and with the hope that it will be explained later...In the end 40% of the questions remain...The MC is kinda... useless like 24/7 ...(who cares tho?) but the worst in the end it contradict itself...I mean imagine a WHOLE thing is happening for a reason but you just ignore the reasonat the end...Imagine doing "important" stuff without a reason(perfectly eplained)... WTF??!!
--Small example.It promotes bisexuality based on that world's rules but the sad thing is that this will trigger a series of events...Why sad?? Of course because in the end you will never learn why bisexuality was promoted. It was just a plot device without sense . Just to climax our curiosity and fuel our big urge for answers....
--Last small notice there is some "timeskip" which is not so bad... Just except that between that skipped time nothing happened. Just daily routine i guess for... 10 years or something?
--And it has that magical moment when something impossible happen...(worth mentioning that shitty moment exist)

In my opinion this is a really great anime , well thought, memorable and very enjoyable.There are so many plot holes and questions remaining in the end...For me its an 8/10...
Just take a note every time you have a serious question...tbh my note had 15 questions and only 9 were answered by the end.I recommend it to everyone , it is something you won't regret and it can easily trick you into thinking of it as a masterpiece
Reasons to watch it:
-Its actually a mystery and has some romantic touches!
-Well written god tier story!
-Thrilling and intense af most of the times!
