The premise of the project is the 70% or higher possibility that a magnitude 7.0 earthquake will occur in Tokyo in the next 30 years. The anime will depict what would happen if an 8.0 earthquake took place. The story will center on Mirai, a middle school freshman girl who goes to Tokyo’s artificial Odaiba Island for a robot exhibition with her brother Yutaka at the start of summer vacation. A powerful tremor emanates from an ocean trench, the famed Tokyo Tower and Rainbow Bridge crumble and fall, and the landscape of Tokyo changes in an instant. With the help of a motorcycle delivery woman named Mari who they meet on Odaiba, Mirai and Yutaka strive to head back to their Setagaya home in western Tokyo.

I started watching this, primarily because of the Japan earthquake. This was the only anime that was primarily getting discussed. After having watched it, this is an anime that really stirs the soul. I watched all 11 episodes in two days. For the first episode, I was fascinated by how great the animation was. What got me hooked was the relationship the main characters have and how that relationship is strengthened in times of turmoil. Highly recommended, mainly because it's different. It's more of an adult themed anime like Gantz only because you have to hang in there through till the end. Even after having watched it and seen how it ends, my eyes still to this day water up watching episode 10.
