No. 6

This film started as a great movie and ended as a mockery of the audience. The script is full of cliches and logical holes. Each storyline turns into a dead end, and instead of a clear explanation of the reasons and motives, we see only meaningful hints of a certain "mystery", as in a cheap provincial circus. There are no words, only disappointment remains. I would give this film high scores for the work of animators, but the writer spoiled everything. They knew who was on the team. I am not surprised that the series was not continued for the second season. The worst movie I've seen in the last year.

I loved this show. I binged watched the show. It was fantastic. I love every second of it. The two main character had the best chemistry and there romance was great. This show was differnce from anything I ever have seen. I loved the setting and the plot of the story. There was a lot of character development even know the story was pretty short. It pack a lot into each episode and got me emotion. I loved the moment when he kissed the other dude and when he thought the other dude was gonna died so he decided to sing to him instead of leaving and saving himself. I love part of these moments. I saw like when the gray hair dude took then baby that was found back to rise it with his mom. That part was good too. The class system thing reminded me of things I have saw in other show but it was a bit differnce. I recommend this show to everyone as long as you don't have a problem with two men kissing or LGBT.

This anime is great. Go watch it.

It has wonderful animation, an interesting setting, well-developed characters, an intricate plot, and a compelling romance. Yes, the ending is a bit unsatisfying, but everything up until then is so good that its well worth the watch.

It was an alright show. I liked the storyline and Nezumi and Shion's relationship development. The animation was great as well. However, the story seemed very rushed. It seemed to serve as promotion for the manga more than anything else. I watched it in one sitting, so it has an addictive element. I give it an 8/10.

Without spoiling any major plot details, I can say that all character and relationship development appears natural and un-forced. Despite still somewhat falling short of the novel in some areas, the anime more than makes up for it with brilliant music and hidden symbolism in the artwork. Unlike so many of it's peers, No. 6 requires no "buying in" to the story, yet still manages to create a fantasic world with many interesting facets.

Any critism I might have concerns only anime-specific design choices in the last episode that don't holistically take away from the story at all.

I would invite anyone to watch the first episode, then pick up the novel (or any of the free translations of the novel available online) and read away.
