Shûmatsu nani shitemasu ka? Isogashii desu ka? Sukutte moratte ii desu ka?

It came up on the recommendations and I started it after watching few trailers. The Initial episodes suggested this is gonna be a great anime in the further episodes. But to my disappointment this turned out to be a boring one with very few interesting elements. The background score didn't had much impact on me. Overall.. You can watch this if you have way too much free time otherwise just skip it and watch other great anime.

Other than having the most unnecessarily long title I've ever seen, this anime wasn't bad. For the most part I was interested in what the characters were doing, I thought the world was intriguing, and the premise was fun. I do think it is a bit generic and forgettable, but that doesn't mean it isn't a good watch. I just think there are better anime out there with similar premises. Probably the highlight for me was the art direction, as the backgrounds and locations were excellently done and really beautiful to look at. Overall not a bad show, but I would recommend other anime over this one, such as Sword Art Online or Chivalry of a Failed Knight.

To be honest this is the third time I've watched this anime and its about time I wrote a review. Many people might agree with me on this, but this anime deserves another season. So please give it a a prequel-season on where it tells the story of Willem Kmetsch when he was a brave up until the point where he meets Nygglatho and Grick or a season for what happens after episode 12.

Overall the animation is solid with a fairly interesting "world", and although I'm not a fan of the overly common older man + Lolicon/Hebephilia genre it actually made sense and worked in this instance when lifespans are short as indicated.

Music choice for the first / final episode was exceptional as is the storytelling that happens along with it (I seem to have a weakness for "Scarborough Fair").

The story of the male leads suffering could have been done a little better, but I could still identify with his loss, so all things considered it was not bad..

The bleakness of the world, along with those trying to find happiness was well handled, all in all it was worth the time and I'd enjoy a second season

The animation graphics, dubbed voice acting, and story are excellent. The best part of this anime is the definitely the story. Its both beautiful and sad, and you should watch it till the end.
