Summary:
Disowned by his father, Jugo Yama has run away from home to the island of Nanae. He begins to live by himself, only to discover his room is haunted by the ghost of Nanana Ryugajo. She was murdered ten years ago, and her killer must be found before she can rest in peace. Before her death, Nanana collected things from all over the world and hid them throughout the island. Using the mysterious powers of these hidden items, they should be able to find the culprit. As Jugo begins his hunt for her collection, however, he discovers he's not the only person searching.
First of all, I would like to say that this anime has great animation as well as the graphics. As to be expected from the creator of SAO. There's no doubt that this animation is above average. For the main story, it's pretty exciting for scavenger hunt anime lovers. And as you can see from the summary, the characters are in search of hidden treasures in the ruins. Each ruins are different, so it makes you curious about the other ruins.
But, as good as the main story is, they didn't do a good job telling us the side story. At first, we're set (read more)

But, as good as the main story is, they didn't do a good job telling us the side story. At first, we're set to the Jugo's (main character) point of view, but when things get complicated, we "think" that we're in the main Jugo's point of view, but actually we're like the third character in the anime. They added some kind of Plot Twist into the story, but not your typical plot twist. We were there the whole time, watching at the main character's point of view, and suddenly they wasted our time by telling us what Jugo is actually doing, that happened so many times in these few episodes.
As for the Entertainment, there are some fanservice as well, and they sometimes tell jokes. But the problem is, their jokes aren't funny (at least for me). It's kinda hard to explain, but I'll try. It seems they make a joke out of something perfectly normal. Like for example a normal conversation between 3 people. Someone thinks that their conversation is stupid and start aiming at the audience and tell us that it's stupid with a typical character's tone to tell a joke, when all of it seems perfectly normal.
I wouldn't recommend this anime to anyone, but if you're looking for a Scavenger Hunt type anime, I recommend this one. Since there's rarely any scavenger hunt anime nowadays. (show less)
