Comments:
Despite the fact that the animation is slightly blurry, as in not as
high-resolution as I'd like, what I see is extremely soulful. Among
currently released anime, this is the only one I'm falling in love
with. Hopefully, Princess Tutu turns out great as well. Update: And
it sure did!
The voice of Rakka, Hirohashi Ryou, is a new seiyuu as far as I can
tell. I really like her performance as she seems genuinely confused,
yet somehow accustomed to being a Haibane for the first time. I'm
always happy to see Orikasa-san getting a good role and I think Hikari
sounds and feels just right for Orikasa-san. Basically, I really like
all the voices in the show.
This show is somehow beautiful yet dark, mysterious yet natural,
cautious yet bold, cute yet serious, powerful yet calming, and unknown
yet nostalgic all at once. I can't wait to see more!
Image1: Look what I found!!! Does this mean Nemu has completely
different taste than Mayuko? I can't believe I missed it the first &&
second time through.
