I finished the anime today and it was good, but I was sad because Raikou died ): He is one of my favourites, I feel sorry for Yoite as well. For a moment I thought Miharu will use this Hijutsu and save Yoite and the others.. Whatever, it was a good anime, even it's sad. :D |

I think it was great, but probably because I'm mostly a shoujo fan. This anime is classified as shounen, but it feels like a borderline-shoujo to me (which is good because I normally hate shounens). I love the characters and grew attached to them all, and I especially loved how well-developed the relationship between Miharu and Yoite was. I, not being a yaoi fan, see their relationship as more like that between brothers or best friends. I liked how the story progressed with their bond deepening, and us finding out more about each character. The ending... I was surprised that off all people, Raikou had to die. And I wish that Miharu could have saved Yoite. The ending was bittersweet- Yoite enjoyed his last days of living, but I really wish that he could've been saved. |

Liked the ending. It was a bit bittersweet, though. Nobody wanted Yoite to die, that's for sure. But he seemed so happy, that I rather prefer it this way than if he decided to get rid of the Kira and never of met Miharu and the other's. |

I watched this series today witch is 25th December so still Christmas and I can only say that I thought about something pleasure and quite not dificult and I'm disapointing but not in bad way. Nobari No Ou it' s sad and very gloomy anime but in the same time it's very mature and good shounen. The ending was just like the whole story and fortunately the director didn't cross the line between pathetic and totally disaster like the sweet, happy ending comes no one knows where so the whole series is one entirety. |

I thought the first 16 eps was crap then it began to pick up a bit with Yoites past but then it just kept repeating itself and people were going in circles but the ending tied itself up nicley unlike pandora hearts anime so I give 8 out of 10 time to go read the manga and see what the anime left out :) Although Yoite is so cute gotta luv him to death :3 |

I pretty much liked the ending.(okay I admit, I cried!) Since Yoite had a peace of mind already. There was no bitter feelings for Miharu when he saw Yoite fade away. I liked Yoite's dialog wherein he asked when the others will arrive. He knew that he was going to disappear eventually. KNITTING YOITE IS FFFFFFFFFFF ADORABLE. Miharu x Yoite has a great potential = Shounen Ai :)) Pass me the Lemonade. |

Unhappily, before watching last epiode, I read somewhere Why Yoite had to dissapear??? or something like this. Even so, I watched it and be suprised - yeah, Yoite is still alive, now is ending song, so what's wrong? Unhappily one more time, Yoite died. And I really don't like this moment. Everything is good, maybe not awesome, but still good - story, characters. But about this ending... I have mixed feelings. It's look like they want Yoite to dissapear, and this is end, so let's go, just erase him. This was strange end for me, not appropriate for the rest of anime. |

Two words. Boring. Period. And it was always on the verge of turning into a shounen-ai anime... Overall the first 2/3 were good, then it went downhill. 7/10 because I feel generous. |

The Anime was a bit boring in my opinion, but i managed to watch it to the end somehow. The end, Yoites death, was really sad and i had hoped for another ending. It would have been nice if Miharu could have helped him with the Shinra banshō..... well 7/10 for me. |

I was just about to click off at the beginning of the credits until the ending part came up. Gee, I thought it was going to be left a happy ending. But instead it was left with a very sad one. |

Was this supposed to have a plot or did i miss something? World of Nabari???!?!? more like the same 12 people running around avoiding fights with each other. They said there were ninja villages but uh...where were the ninjas? i get that there were inexplicable amounts of henchmen ninjas who seemed to randomly appear and disappear but where were the rest of the ninjas when the "bad guys" were about to steal the secret art thing at the end with the oh-so-convenient, now i can do that method which they seemingly pulled out of their assess. Not to mention this was a ninja anime with uhh...no ninja fighting? Also this anime was beyond gay, you could have stuck a naked porn star in there and all of the guys would have had hardon's for their male counterparts. Also why did these morons have day jobs and money problems? they have their own world but apparently it doesn't generate revenue? This anime was filled with horendous plot holes, flawed character design (all of them made no sense) and a whimsical story line that seemed to have no actual backstory besides what the monkey they were paying to power the thought machine could pop out in 3 seconds. Fuuma who is supposed to be a main character (maybe?) plays no role whatsoever in the entire show yet he keeps getting spotlighted as some sort of intergral character. Severely pissed for watching this series 4/10 |

I really don' t know what to say about this series. When it started i was all set to see them use Jutsu and the like but for the whole 26 episode run, One 2 or 3 jutsu's were used by the characters. The series was about ninja but no real fighting actually happened. It mostly revolved around Miharu who rarely did anything else than stick close to Yoite. The constant " I don't want to die, erase me" got on my nerves sometimes but in the end Yoite managed to put a smile on and was eager to see his friends. 7/10 because i hated how they strayed away from collecting the scrolls and saving Yoite life |

The ending was bittersweet (extremely sad!!!) TT_TT Why did Yoite have to just vanish like that?!! It's not fair! Great anime though! Loved it. I hated it when Raiko died. TT w TT |

I'll give this anime a 4/10. I feel this anime had so much potential but it just turned out to be a huge disappointment. In my opinion Episodes 1-5 were the only good episodes, then everything just went downhill to the very end. I didn't like Yoite for shit in the beginning and I still didn't like him at the end. I'm disappointed that he didn't even try to see Yukimi. That's bad, Yukimi took care of him like a son and he didn't even look for him when he knew he was going to die. Probably because Miharu was there, he feels complete when Miharu is with him. Again with the gay shit! This is the first anime, that everytime I give a review concerning the episodes I end up cursing...Every time! If it was Miharu that didn't want to see him, he would have moved heaven and hell just to see him. Ungrateful brat! I like Thobari, but he was such a useless character. He didn't really add any value to this at all. Just kept whining and whining not really doing anything. Is he even a strong fighter? I can honestly say, that the only beautiful scene in the whole 26 episodes was when Yoite died. Even though I hate him, it actually made me sad. I saw it yesterday,but I can't stop thinking about it. Why? |

i'll give it a 4/10 To be honest, i thought it would be better when i saw the first episodes. but then it just got weird and silly. i think when when miharu joined up with yoite, was when it just got gay. and i like gay but...every time they were together, i was pretty much laughing. Though i did like gau X raikoh. that was a cute pairing. wish raikoh didn't die like that D: and yoite's death. oh god. i thought he would just pass away. but he turned into sparkles and went into the sky? i wasn't able to stop laughing. couldn't they have given him a better death? but it was sad. that's for sure D: |

I really liked it, the story was kinda confusing sometimes but when I kept watching it became better and better and omg the ending... What to say what to say?.. So bittersweet, it's too bad Miharu wasn't with Yoite when he died, it would've been better... And I hoped Yoite would've finished the scarf :( *I cried a bit* The anime is really unique and I don't think I'll ever find one that'll be the same, I give it a 8/10 but I'm thinking about giving it a 9 :) Miharu and Yoite were just great :) |

Solid ending to a solid overall show, even though i knew it was coming it was still depressing, but in a way i think Yoite found peace in the end despite his horrible life, he found solace in the fact that he will live on in the memories of the ones he left behind, good show and worth watching 8/10.

Surprisingly I liked the ending, even though I wish that Miharu would have done something to prevent Yoite's death. :( Giving the anime an 8/10 because, honestly, I really enjoyed watching it(mainly to find out what would happen to Yoite in the end) and I think I'm going to start reading the manga soon too since so many claim that it's so much better. I'll have to find out~ |

I actually liked the ending of the show, despite the sadness I felt when Yoite died. I knew it was coming, but when it did I couldn't help but cry. It's also ironic how he wanted Miharu to erase the existence of him so that no one would know or remember him, and instead, after he died and as he was dying, many people helped and put their lives on the line for him, and he would forever be in the hearts of many. To be honest, I really did feel bored throughout the story. The only parts that kept me watching were ones Yoite was in. And the shounen-ai hints, of course. Anyways, I'd give it an 8/10...and I'm not rating it high due to the plot development or anything, but mainly because I'd give the characters a 9 since they're well developed and unique. They also change dramatically throughout the series, and it's amusing to watch. |

What the fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk kind of ending was that? So anti-climactic. Anyway, overall the show had good art, animation, music and voice acting. Unfortunately this was encumbered by bad pacing, awful plot and characterisation that made no sense. The dialogue was also quite bad at times. +I'm annoyed that they made it so BL friendly and then never did anything with it. CHOOSE ONE OR THE OTHER PLEASE. Giving it a 3/10. |

I didn't like the direction this took, it was going good the first 5 or so episodes then it became an odd story about Yoite. I liked it better before Miharu became obsessed with him. Yoite was a mass killer in the Nabari world, who cares if they have something in common like personality. Such potential... 6/10 |

as previously stated first few eps were good, story got lost in transition after that, they kept the shinrabansho thing a secret from the audience for too long and i easily lost interest....its a damn shame they stuck with yoite, the plot they laid out in the beginning was so much better at the onset then simply turning focus to one person's wish....fight scenes were all cliched, not a single fight were the "good" guys even a match for the "bad" guys, and they end up getting a miracle save by some random person (why must action animes use this so often!?!?)....after the shinrabansho was finally explained the ending was pretty good...but damage was done...6/10....so much potential yet wasted on this piece of work...one final point....for a ninja anime, aside being set in the modern day, the ninjas using guns and samurai ninja touches were a bad idea |

I was two inches from dropping these series..but then Yoite's story and the shinrabanshou thing kept me hooked. I was really disappointed with the quality of the story, it was promising but then it all became about two boys who shared a personnality trait .. I really enjoyed the light atmosphere in the end..and Yoite's disappearance made me a bit emotional. But what the hell is up with him becoming an old granny towards the end ? Mah..5 or 6 / 10 for this anime. |

I liked this series, if I could I would give 7.5/10, so it's 7/10. Anyways it was worth my time but I don't think that I would ever rewatch it. My only problem was that the characters were not so memorable, I might only remember Yoite and his friend [not even his name](Miharu). To be fair I loved the characters almost all of them, Yoite; Miharu; Aizawa; Thobari; Raimei and Raikou; Kazuhiko; Oda Yae; Amatatsu; Hanabusa "Hana" Seki; and Fuuma. Don't get confused I don't remember all of their names, took it from the characters list. But these are the ones I liked, and no it's not that I didn't like Gau but somehow he does not fit in here.. |

the anime overall wasn't scripted right all the way, even tho i have to give 9/10 for animation , 10/10 for voice acting & Finally a 11/10 for music it was fabulous and well made, the ending was so sad with that background music it felt like a drama in my heart.. |

What's a sad end for Yoite. But he's died happy, and peaceful, and it's was inevitable. Very sentimental, this manga is beautiful, but I regret that the rythm wasn't more dynamic by moments, and that the ninja's fights weren't more impressive. But the scenario stay attaching. 8/10 ! |

The best part about this show was Fuma-dono... I so want to know more about him! The rest was just ... blah. And this is coming from a crazed yaoi / BL fangirl who actually genuinely enjoyed Monochrome Factor. It had potential and was fun at the beginning, but after the first few episodes I lost all contact with any type of feeling for the characters - there was no development, just things happening _to_ them and them angsting about it. It quickly became irritating, repetitive, and then felt like a lifetime movie at the end. Ew. |

I'm so conflicted, I don't even know what to rate it. Don't get me wrong, I loved the anime, the colors, the story, the characters, the relationships, the music (oh god, the music...), but the end is so sad, it hurts. I've seen myself in Yoite. His wish, "I don't want to die... I just want so it'll be like I never was", hit straight home. I thought Miharu is gonna save him. Deep down, everyone wants to be needed, everyone wants to be saved... In the end, what was the point of everything? Thobari was way weaker than I thought he will be. He hasn't done a single thing. Fuma... I expected him to be more involved. Aizawa... I expected him to be much much stronger, considering that he can't be killed. And Miharu... What's the point in having such powers if you're not gonna use them? The one I really loved was Yoite (but I'm biased I guess). I really hoped this would end differently. Such powers... I mean, after all, Miharu's wishes weren't that selfish. I expected him to give Aizawa mortality. I expected him to give Gau and Raimei Raikou back. I mean, those two brothers just got back together. I expected he would give Yoite his forgiveness (but in the end, he achieved that on his own). And I expected he would grant his own wish and he would save Yoite. I didn't like how they've thrown the fact that Yoite can actually save people with his abilities, and they didn't do anything with it. I know that he thought that he doesn't deserve to live, but if Miharu would've cured him, he could have worked at the hospital or something, with the harder cases. That could've worked better for his own forgiveness. This anime affected me too much. I don't even know anymore if the end it's happy-sad or sad-sad. It's bittersweet... |

The main things I remember from this show are "I want to be loved," "I want to disappear," and that one girl that used a slingshot as a weapon. It started off on an okay footing, but I'm not exactly sure what the show was trying to do throughout the second half. Also, if random episodes were shown to me out of context, I probably wouldn't have guessed that this show had anything to do with ninjas. Still, it was a rather...unique experience that I don't regret. It helped me realize that I need to build tolerance against this kind of character drama. |

Hmm we still don't know much about the characters and the whole backstory tbh. The ending was too simple. Adellaeda said: I'm so conflicted, I don't even know what to rate it.

It takes more than 5 days to finish this anime, and it was only pure will because I did not want to leave it dropped: Shounen-ai? Probably. The dialogues were very simple and boring to follow. I was waiting for the furious war between the villages and instead I had to listen for hours on the "death, existence and meaning of life". I thought it would be better when I saw the first episodes, the characters I liked and the plot of shinrabasou. But then it got weird and silly (When yoite appeared), this series was only about Yoite and his inner suffering. Fuuma who is supposed to be a main character (maybe?) Does not play any role at all in the whole show, but still receives spotlighted as some kind of integral character. Tobari was an inutilhime xD .. And miharu ... has the voice of a girl, Arre. XD ... 6/10 just because I am generous and the almost originality of the characters I liked - Tarde mas de 5 días para terminar este anime, y fue solo a voluntad pura por que no quería dejarlo dropeado: Shounen-ai? Probablemente. Los diálogos eran muy sencillos y aburridos de seguir. Yo estaba esperando la guerra furiosa entre los pueblos y en su lugar tuve que escuchar durante horas sobre la "muerte, existencia y el significado de la vida". Pensé que sería mejor cuando vi los primeros episodios, los personajes me gustaron y la trama del shinrabasou. Pero luego se puso extraño y tonto(Cuando apareció yoite), esta serie fue sólo acerca de Yoite y su sufrimiento interior. Fuuma que se supone que es un personaje principal (¿tal vez?) No juega ningún papel en absoluto en todo el espectáculo, pero sigue recibiendo spotlighted(centro de atención) como algún tipo de carácter integral. Tobari fue un inutilhime xD.. Y miharu... tiene la voz de una chica, Arre. xD ... 6/10 solo por que soy generoso y la casi originalidad de los personajes me gustaron |

If I would describe the series it would be the anime with the most character regressions all the characters seem useless the sensei is weak and depends on others Aizawa is immortal but he is acting as whimp Miharu got the Shinrabansho but do not use it I hate when they make like Fate the holy grail is dangerous and must not be used then why did you put it in the plot in the first place overall 5/10 nice character designs but shitty plot |

Well, we have reached the end. This show started off great, but somewhere mid through the series, it declined. After the decline, things just got boring. This series had potential (at highest, if this show kept its consistency, I would have given a 7). Overall, this series is either a 3 or 4 out of 10. Great background art though. |
