I never thought an anime could be so unique and consistent in what it is trying to convey. I am glad I had the opportunity watch this all the way through because it dug into a perspective of friendship I never thought could truly exist within individuals.
The show definitely entertains its audience consistently and the action is well placed. Dialogue is well thought out and I like how it draws the audience to question certain aspects of their lives and friendships. The animation is beautiful and even if the it was bad, the story, with its well placed scenes that draw on the emotions of the viewers, itself makes would make for that lacking.
In essence, I would put this anime in the top 10 of best animes ever created just because the content within the series is just jaw dropping and well thought out. If you are looking for a series to redeem your faith in anime, this is definitely the one to do it.
