Kyro no sumika: chronus has a somewhat more minimalistic but fluent animation(I do not mind more minimalistic animation) but what it lacks in details it compensates with the use of effects, POV, camera motion and especially the sound effect.
For a one episode story it did more than many animes cannot do in 12 episodes:
- It presented enough detail to understand the setting but still left enough out to wanting to explore more.
- Even though characters had classic personalities there were still character development.
- And it told a story without plot holes (or I didn´t notice)
The story on the other hand wasn´t original but quite predictable but how it was presented the effects, the concept of the reapers and the asked questions made it interesting.
So I would like to give it 7 but the story could have been more original :)
Also it is a somewhat a first chapter story but I don´t mind, because even though I want more, I thinkthat it still ended good so it doesn´t really need a followup even though it would be nice :)
