Summary:
One day a man, Kaiba, wakes up in a broken room. He has no memories, only a pendant with a picture of an unknown woman. Outside of the room are grotesque floating electrical clouds of disjointed memories. Kaiba is suddenly assaulted, and escapes into space. He travels to various planets, encountering various people and retrieving his memories. Memories of an inconsistent and decaying world, of his own agony and of Niero, the woman in the picture
This felt like a cult-classic type of anime. At times it can be pretty hard to follow because there are complex situations involving body-memory discontinuity. Despite that, it is a really pleasant anime to escape into. It has wonderful visuals, unpredictable and interesting plot, cool concepts, and a very artistic creation of its own little world. It is pretty weird, but still easy to get emotionally invested in. Also, it has a cool ending, which really feels good, as I would be pretty pissed if everything was left open-ended in the last episode.
