This anime deserves much more credit so I decided to give high marks (to increase the total score). Story is very original, is divided in two story arcs. First half have more actions, intriguing and interesting characters but the second is deeper and scarier (some scenes like bloody room in demolish, old building reminds me a little of Silent Hill game). The realistic graphics was perfectly animated a beautiful female character (Hikary in Heian Chapter) and surroundings. is My only complaint is that I didn't like how is Hikaru's personality transform from brave warrior to irritating, whining girl. Character Mansairaku probably is the best part of the anime. He completed the story.
