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

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.

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.

Only thing I hate is there is no second season. Without it, this story cannot end!

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

Five hundred years have passed since the humans went extinct at the hands of the fearsome and mysterious 'Beasts.' The surviving races now make their homes up on floating islands in the sky, out of reach of all but the most mobile of Beasts. Only a small group of young girls, the Leprechauns, can wield the ancient weapons needed to fend off invasions from these creatures. Into the girls' unstable and fleeting lives, where a call to certain death could come at any moment, enters an unlikely character: a young man who lost everything in his final battle five hundred years ago, the last living human awakened from a long, icy slumber. Unable to fight any longer, Willem becomes the father that the girls never had, caring for and nurturing them even as he struggles to come to terms with his new life, in which he feels the pain of helplessly waiting for his loved ones to return home from battle that his 'Daughter' once felt for him so long ago. Together, Willem and the girls gradually come to understand what family means and what is truly worth protecting.

I honestly thought this was a fun series to watch.

I really liked the characters as well as the animation and OST.

Definitely worth your time.
