Story 7
Im rating it a 7 based on the actuall story and not how it was made. It was quite intersting I mean it revolves around Kakeru Satsuki the leading male and Yuka Minase, childhood friends who are dragged into a mysterious world named "red night". In this world there are cratures and powerfull beings that wish to desroy these 'fragments'. Finding out they are not the only humans they forge alliances in red night and in the real wold. Each person has a secret power which is slowly discoverd through surviving red night. Now if a better company produced 11eyes and kept it on track then i believe it would deserve an 8 but allas...
Art 7
Being released in 2009 the animation is still considered quite good. The backgrounds and the lighting used improve the visual experience. Characters look quite good also nothing you would think is 'old'.
Sound 8
The opeing song Arrival of Tears is one that I enjoyed it is a rock style with a sprinkle of mystery in the tune. It builds you up and gets you ready for the action in 11 eyes. The ending is one of my favourite ending songs "sequetia" is also a rock syled but is more energetic and is fitting for the end. The video for Sequetia is very good be sure to check it out.
Character 5
This I believe is the biggest downfall for 11 eyes. Its not all the characters that are annoying but some change drastically from being loved to thinking "just DIE already!!" Youll know what im talking about if you watch the anime. The development was a tad bit slow and even at the end they all go back to normal as if nothing ever changed.
Enjoyment 5
I have to say once i started this anime i was convinced it was going to be a good action anime that i would remember. But now i just think of it as something my brother suggested to me when i was bored (not listening to him again lol). It just barely tweaked my interest and just when you think things are going good it all comes crashing down again. I might sound a bit too harsh but there are postives in 11 eyes such as the action. The fightings scenes were well done its fluid and moves link with one another, not the best I have seen but still good.
Overall 6
Not one that i would suggeest to anyone unless I knew this was there thing. Be prepared to get annoyed, although I know people that have enjoyed it.
If you are into action, liked school days (you will know why ;P) and watch anime for the music then 11 eyes would suit you :D.
btw this is my 2nd review (forgot to say it was my 1st on my 1st which was MM!) and I would appreciate and constructive critisims :D.
