I wasn't really expecting a whole lot from this movie given the blurb however the cover art did kind of catch my eye so I thought why not. In the end I can definitely say that this movie was not a waste of time this is one of the few anime I'd give a 5/5 score.

The beginning starts off like something out of a magic based light novel and then suddenly has an entirely new setting. From then on things start off a little slow however the pace of the anime helps to emphasise the story.

The characters are diverse and in some case their quite comedic. Especially the dream soldiers who are introduced in a very quirky way. I particularly enjoyed the relationship between the two protagonists Ichirou and Ryouko, the way they communicate and how Ichirou helps her out.

The overall impression of this anime is one of a very deep and meaningful one. It deals with your typical anime bullying situations, the affects it has on the characters from the breaking off friendships and even attempting suicide. Its probably something I wouldn't recommend as something that would have you holding your sides in laughter, nothing overly action packed and definitely nothing seriously ecchi. I'd recommend it to those who are after something that has a very deep message or contains very realistic sorts of scenarios and characters. People who are also going through a tough time at school, etc. might like it as well (show less)
