Overall a very watchable series, with an ending, if imperfect.
Pros: -Animation. (strong colors, characters, etc) -Music. (Fantastic score, opening and closing credits) -Initial plot. (Some Trope use, but the politics was a nice angle)
Cons: -Starts to loose it's way in season 2. -Tropes. -Ending Plot some really hate. -Very "short" Ending.
It Falls under a number of genre categories (Action, dystopia, political thriller, some mecha etc)

The anime looks beautiful and has some good fight scenes. However, trying to understand the plot (especially in the second halve) is near impossible.
Plot twist after plot twist. Everyone good is apparently evil and then good again.
Except for the guy that killed his sister's husband out of pure jealousy and then tries to destroy the world because of the same reason. And who or what is the Daath guy??

So, this show is about pretty fun (not overly cool) fight scenes, a little bit about helping other people, and a lot about the love between the two main characters.
I was actually moved by the love Shu and Inori had--and I don't think I've ever been moved by a show, movie, or anime's love bond, but theirs was just something special.
The show is short; yet, it is easily just one of my favorites and I'll always keep it in my collection for another go-around in the future. I will say, while the last 11 episodes are packed with more action, the first 11 episodes are better, and I strangely think the last 11 could have been summed up quicker--that's not to say they are slow, for they move faster than the first 11, it's just... well, you will see.

That being said, I really didn't like the ending at all, and to me, it's the ending that really makes me want to re-watch an anime. Still, I'd never give a show a 9 if the ending was bad, for it'd be a 7 or lower, but I really did enjoy it. Not to mention it's just beautiful animations.
---
IN SHORT: if you haven't watched it, do it. Set aside a week and just enjoy a few episodes at a time, and try to live in the relationship between the two main characters. Also, be sure to listen to the intro song for the first 11 episodes--I must have listened to it dozens of times.

Deserves much more...before watching read the reviews but was really disapointed and after watching the anime i can say that it was worth it. Nice anime.
When i checked the rating after watching this i was shocked to see just 7.1,
it really deserves more really really more, it has a fantastic screen play with more than a decent story line and an excellent character development,
The quality of the animation is beautiful picture perfect you can say.
I don't know why it is so underrated, probably the reason for this is the story line being bit too confusing in the initial stage, That's the only reason i can come up with.
Initially you really won't understand what's happening, what and why are they attacking each other, which is a good side and which is not, Anyway moving forward things will start picking up and you will get proper clarity for all that has happened and what is happening,
it may not give you any anxiety or a high level curiosity but still It is an interesting anime,
The only suggestion i can give you is not to get frustrated with the initial episodes.
