Different from what others viewed, I find this anime started out pretty slow. The introductions of characters without any background story made whatever they are doing seems all over the place, without any motive to back up their actions. Besides, keita in the earlier episodes really annoyed me. Thank goodness he changed later on. The story may not be that special but what i think make it good is the relationships between the main characters. The fight may be repetitive and the changed of a few main character’s in the middle is not contributing that much. The latter half of the anime which reveals everything and the conclusion succeed to connect the anime nicely. I left out with warm feeling and a bit teary eyed in the end. (show less)

After the first few episodes i was reluctant to keep watching. Mainly because I wanted to punch the main character in the face. But he gradually turns into someone respectable.

Although it feels a little childish in some fight scenes, in others it can shine. The same goes for the animation, really shining in some episodes and others feeling a little unrefined.

Dialogue also suffered in areas. Do not get the english dub, you will hate yourself for even trying it. The voice actors for the english dub were horrible. They sounded like something between an afternoon show for kids and a porn movie.

Stick to English subtitles. Trust me.

Once the story starts picking up many gaps appear. These are all eventually filled by the end of the series. Even though i didnt "like" the ending i accept the way the series closed.

I would go into further detail but i would probably hint towards the ending. Which is nicely hidden to build up suspense until very end of the last episode.

WATCH EVERYTHING AFTER THE CREDITS IN EACH EPISODE. Important things happen in the 10 seconds that would otherwise leave you confused at the start of the next. (show less)
