First, I want to say to Jun Maeda for giving me a show with a story that moved me deeply, following his works like Clannad and Charlotte. Honestly, this ending was truly extraordinary for me. As we approached the conclusion of the anime, we were hit with an unexpected plot twist (Spoiler Alert!) where Kanade, the character we meet in the anime, is saved by Otonashi through his heart donation, which he provided as an organ donor when he was trapped in the subway. That was another piece of the puzzle that deeply touched me.

Second, the character portrayal in this anime is absolutely fantastic. Take ... Otonashi, for example. His backstory is incredibly tragic, with his younger sister dying while waiting for a donor. Eventually, he finds his purpose after her death: to help others by becoming a doctor. He trains hard, studies diligently, and even when faced with a disaster during his exams, he doesn't despair. Instead, he struggles to save others, forgetting about himself. In the end, he passes away without regrets, hoping that what he left behind would help at least one person. That part made me cry so much. How could there be such a person in the real world? Jun Maeda beautifully crafted this character.

Third, the story is unquestionably one of Jun Maeda's best works. I am eagerly waiting for his next game, titled Heaven Burns Red. I can't wait to experience the emotions of the characters he creates.

Fourth, the opening, ending, and soundtrack throughout the anime are perfectly placed. Even the comedic moments don't ruin the atmosphere. So, from me:

Story: 10

Characters: 10

Opening: 10

Ending: 10

Soundtrack: 10
Overall: 10

Okay here I criticize has a basis, the mecha anime that I have watched so far are Darking in Franxx and Guility Crown. So I will criticize from the two anime that I have watched
Let's start from the story, I am quite satisfied with the story that is brought, namely the difference between people with white hair and those who are not. Where people who are not from the white-haired tribe are made slaves for war whose purpose is to defend the territory of the white-haired people. Among the white-haired people there is one person who has a different view, namely our main character, Vladilena ... (correct me if I'm wrong)
Besides that, our main character Shinei has his own story too.
So in this anime we have two stories, namely Vladilena and Shinei

Let's get into the shortcomings of this anime
First, the story of each character that supports our main character seems like an NPC, there are some that are definitely related to the main character. But I know if the background of each character is explained, the anime will be very long.

Let's get into the graphics, design, coloring and animation in this anime
I can say this is a mecha anime that I watch comfortably. Just so you know, I don't really like anime with mecha themes, most of them are suspense, psychological, fantasy, slice of life, isekai, reicarnation, school, and gore. And this anime successfully made me watch it but at 2x speed and without skipping the opening and ending. The mecha animation is also not too stiff and quite interactive, the coloring is very nice and the design of each character I like, there is no impression of being made like an unimportant character

Lastly, the opening, ending and soundtrack of this anime, we start with the opening.

For the opening, I like the rhythm of the song and the meaning of the song that is sung
And for this ending, it is very suitable to be placed at the end, the sound of the piano and the singer's voice are very comfortable and make me calm when listening to it
The last soundtrack is not disturbing, everything is placed in the right part
Overall, I give a rating of 10/10
Good job A-1 Picture
Good job to all the staff who worked on this anime, they really succeeded in making a mecha anime in my mindset, the story is not deep and the animation is definitely stiff and uncomfortable for me to watch

This is my first anime with a sports theme, where the sport is a Japanese sport, karuta.
What makes me like this anime is the introduction of Japanese sports, karuta, which is delivered from how to play to the tournament very well.
I also really like each character in this anime when they are in the karuta tournament, for me I feel the tension and my adrenaline is also pumping when watching this anime.
For the shortcomings of this anime, namely because it is spiced up with a romance triangle
The opening and ending of this anime are good and the pronunciation of poetry for the karuta game I ... also really like
10/10
