This story was actually quite well done. I found when watching it a special treat for me.

The story is about Creatures you heard before, and while not spoiling anything it has been done before however this series approaches it with a wonderful skill and new twist that makes it very original and intertaining. I will warn the first couple episodes are a small mystery [I say small because anyone who understand myth could figure it out quickly] so it does feel a little jarring at first but is entertaining and done well.

The Dialogue is excellent. I think what I like most about the story also carries over to the characters; they are realistic. The voices reflect a story where everyone is for the most part varried and acrost all places... no one person is invincible or unstopable and it reflects in a cast that the voices are well varried and excellently chosen and followed through.

Animation is actually quite good. I find it doesnt stand out but its very clear. Once again Anime leads on the abililty to show motives of people without giving away their entire agenda. This adds realisma and when looking at the sets it quite reminicant of Pastel in some parts due to how beautiful it is. I do note they use freeze frames once or twice but they do it in perfect spots so it doesnt get anoying.

Entertainment. Its qute the interesting strugle of story, plot , characters and follow through. I must admit although I expected the outcome of the overall story it was still done well and wonderful. It delivers on a Light Thriller, action and slice of life. Overall I found that the message of this anime is quite impactful. "Try to understand everyone despite their differences". Although its said toward the end it is quite the statement.

Overall I think its an excellent anime.. and based on the fact its really only 11 episodes {one a excellent but filler} its quite amasing to be so impactful in that space while still extending the mystery in the beginning.

I recomend to anyone who loves Mythical, Thrill or action suspense.... Its quite the differt story.
