Was going to give this a 9, possibly even a 10 since I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Apart from the largest cop-out in anime history for me. There's nothing worse than taking a lovable character then completely ruining them, what they did to said character was despicable and ruined a great series for me.

Everything was great up until said point though, the story was fantastic throughout.

The art was great for the style of anime it is.

The music was wonderful, apart from towards the end when they decided they would make our cute lovable character a sex idol...

The characters were fantastic and relatable, aside from ruination that ... I have stated multiple times.

Overall, I did enjoy this series beyond what I thought I would. I put off this series for a long time, and I would have loved to have give this series the rating it deserved of a 9, but they really ruined it for me towards the end.

I love the Romeo/Juliet feel this anime gives, and in a very unique way. I would recommend this anime to anyone who loves a serious and dramatic romance, as most do. It gives back that feel of youth we all had (or in some peoples cases still have) and the feeling of regrets and what we could of done different. That youthful refreshing feeling is what made this anime so enjoyable, really wets the appetite ( pun intended ). The characters are well developed, all getting their fair share of screen time and back story, while the unique art style of this underwater paradise ... adds to the emotion of this feeling of 'Worlds Apart'. The soundtrack for this anime is a very sad one, one in which, I found myself hating it for the fact that it brought out so much emotion, sometimes lacking the happy feel which I look for in an anime, whether throughout the anime, or just the happy conclusion. As my only warning though, if you are intending on watching this, you should know that this is more of a tragedy anime than a feel good one, if you can't stomach the darker tones of romance, I would give this one a pass.




Be it that I cannot put this anime into words, i'll just leave it at two!



Googolgon Triangle.

From the score this may seem like a very biased review, and for some parts that might be true because it is a lot like the hit TV show 'Heroes' which I personally loved.

But that is not it at all, the character development is on a whole other level, the story is incredible with plot twists and incredible action scenes, be that not many. The sound was incredible, the tracks by ZHIEND were truly emotional and beautiful for all you audiophiles out there! One of the best anime's I have ever seen and I thoroughly recommend it!

*Somewhat SPOILER*!!!!

This review was originally an 8/9, but ... due to the last episode it sky-rocketed to 10, if you are looking for an anime with a fulfilling end I suggest you watch this to it's fullest!

I'm going to start by saying this, I love this anime. I do, this anime is great, it shows how people's lives were back in a golden age where there were a lot of troubles, be it political, emotional or even physical. The story for that matter is great, the way it follows there lives and how honest to truth it is is incredible. The art is amusing in a way that could draw you in, and the sound... well, it is an anime based around music so the sound is incredible. I thoroughly enjoyed this anime and highly suggest it!

Now, getting passed my positive ... thoughts, there are a number of things that really get on my nerves in this anime. *THIS SECTION WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS OF SOME SORT BUT I WILL KEEP IT TO A MINIMUM!* The women in this anime truly grind my gears, the way they are and the way they do things. I do not know if this was the way it was supposed to be because of the time period or whatever, but the two main female characters in which the two main male characters have a crush on really get on my nerves. Firstly, Ritsuko was nice at first, I thought this is a character i could really grow to enjoy, but then a few episodes in it hit me how much of a fragile pathetic character she really was! Misunderstandings, neglecting her own feelings, neglecting others for their feelings just because she can't handle her own. In short... A bitch!
Then there is Yurika, at first, once again, a nice character. A damsel in distress who is saved by the prince, first showing affection, that then moves on to using of sorts. Then, they destroyed her initial image and made her come across as a bitch of the highest magnitude. Understanding someone's feelings for her and yet going after someone else, all while stringing along the initial man.

That said, this anime is still very enjoyable and I advise it to anyone who is in the mood for a musical anime that will truly dig into your heart, especially if you lived through the time period it was set.
