Reviews

This anime gets a lot of hate/criticism for not being exactly like the manga or not as well done, doing the manga a injustice. I would like to say I thoroughly enjoyed this anime from start to finish I was drawn in from the first episode. Now to let you know right off hand not to spoil anything but the ending to the anime is a anime only ending if you would like to keep the story going check out the manga but this in no way hurts the anime, And the manga is great so give it a read as well. To break it down and make it simple A average high school student is taking the train home one day when he sees a homeless man fall onto the tracks, One of his friends he knew from when he was younger jumps down to help him seeing how nobody else was, His old friend looks and asks for help seeing him calls him out to help. Of course he doesn't want to die but he doesn't want to look like a jerk either so rushes down to help after helping the homeless man off the tracks the two boys realize they can't get back up as the train is to close they both start running hoping the train will stop before it hits. To no avail the train ends up not stopping at this station and keeps going the two boys are struck and instantly die. Or so they think they wake up in a room filled with other people alive and well, Nobody knows how or why but they were all alive after being dead or so they thought the room has windows and doors none of which open the only thing in the room is a large black sphere. It tells them there lives are now over and that what happens to there new lives is up to it to decide. Now that is probably the simplest way to put it and the premise alone had me hooked. I have never done a review before so please excuses me if this one is a bit sloppy or not well done I will try better in the future, But if you like great story pretty great characters Sci Fi type premises and awesome action I think you will really enjoy this anime. Side note this is a mature themed anime there is nudity lots of gore and violence and swearing.
