Just as expected, the last episode resolves nothing. Now to read the manga...

Yeah, it was a fantastic adaptation with too little episodes.
Loved it, wish it could have been a whole series. The manga events after this
are just as awesome as the ones till now. Would have loved to see them animated till the end.
Off to re-read the manga again, i think.

Great OVA series. Seriously. Amazing plot and characterization. Sci-fi truly is the best. Also, outstanding animation and music, especially for it's year it was made in. 8/10

Only downsides were:
- Alice/Mokuren was too oblivious and annoying
- Not enough backstory
- Unfulfilling; A lot of important parts were left out
- Random side characters introduced without much background

Idk if it was just me but there were serious homo vibes off Haru and Tamura. I have nothing against that but it was a bit of a mood-breaker.

I thought I could have skipped what I didn't read in the manga, but that's not the case as I suspected after watching ep 5. I really wished they made the anime longer, I liked most of the seiyuu's performance. Especially Rin's one of course.

I'm not going to complain why Rin is so stubborn with hurting innocent people (going as far as killing them) because the anime wanted to stay faithful but chose not to adapt the manga completely.... :(

I can't take something seriously that just randomly throws in a giant cat with sunglasses.

Codes for the moon base... nah, who cares...

I nearly dropped this several times. If it wasn't short I never would have bothered to finish it.

3/10

Hmm the MAL reviews were pretty misguiding, I'd rate it much lower to be honest...

there are some scenes that are not shown in the anime, even though I expect the same ending in manga. Overall, not bad

THAT'S IT! Cuckage to the extreme, we just see a random flash to what happens in summer and it ends. This anime had so much potential and it's a go read the manga ending. Well, I did hear there was a 7th episode. I hope this gets another anime adaptation it was so good. Guess I have to read the manga, huh.

oh god, this anime was so dramatic, the characters are so unlikeable for the first 5 episode... the last episode redeemed the anime

The flashback stuff was good, but such a terrible conclusion/cutoff point since nothing got resolved. Should've had 1 more episode to wrap things up.

But this was one of the craziest series I've ever seen. Aliens, reincarnation, romance (including a touch of BL), psychic powers, psychopathic children - just utterly fascinating! 8.5/10

edit: I have not read the manga but am definitely going to

This anime was good. A 9/10. The issue is that it was rushed at the end. The show was interesting up until the end. It was like they ran out of budget and just decided to cut it short, as opposed to lowering the episode quality by continuing (like Uzumaki).
