If only...

... there were a bit more romance :(

The story is at the very equilibrium of light-hearted adventure and serious meaning-of-life. I was never kept feeling tense for too long nor was i ever kept feeling relaxed and bored for too long. Too be honest, even though i'm a big fan of meccha especially the Gundam series, i tend to skip the prolonged battle scenes quite often. This anime is the perfect mixture which makes the anime a great watch at any time. The fights are never too long, sometimes short enough to leave me wanting more.

Warning for those who haven't watched this:
There will be a very depressing death of a much-loved character (in general). Seriously it was so freaking sad i couldn't believe it for a moment, thinking that the character would be saved somehow.

And yes, the lack of romance :( i'm a romantic fangirl who looks for romance in every kind of story, so i was left very disappointed indeed by the end of this anime. There was just a tiny bit of romance in the end. But the biggest manifestation of what could have been the perfect happy ending was brutally killed off together with the death i mentioned above.

There are only a few anime series i save on my computer to watch again. This is not one of those, unfortunately. But i don't regret watching it. It was a very good watch with exciting twists :)
