Beyond the Boundary, aux limites du surnaturel (2013)
The dark fantasy follows a high school sophomore named Akihito Kanbara. Although the boy appears human, he is half Youmu and invulnerable to wounds because he can heal quickly. One day, Akihito meets freshman Mirai Kuriyama when it seems she is about to jump from the school rooftop. Mirai is isolated because of her ability to manipulate blood, which is considered heresy among members of the spirit world. Disturbing events begin to unfold after Akihito saves Mirai.

    Beautiful and emotional

    This is so sad and beautiful that words cannot describe it, but emotions can. It's so emotional, like Violet Evergarden. I'm literally crying while writing this review, because I just finished the show 2 minutes ago.

    This is the most tragic and beautiful anime I've ever watched, despite Fruits Basket being my 1st for such a long time... At first, I thought it's some stupid cringe romance and fighting, because Mirai was such an annoying girl and Akihito & Hiroomi are weirdos that are obsessed with cute girls wearing glasses, but I was completely fooled.

    Some shows start out as a cringe comedy, but it starts to get darker and darker.

    The last episode and the movie (future) was so emotional and tragic.

    This show was so dark because of the blood and cruelty that makes you want to burst out tears because of the realisation of twisted humanity.

    I recommend this show for people who are okay with blood and gore and dark fantasy.

    Something happened to the last 4 episodes.

    Everything was great in the first 8 episodes. The story and world building was excellent. The anime, voice actors, music, and continuity indicated this was going to be a solid 7 or 8 series. In episode 9, the story board got tossed. World building and continuity became inconsequential. Story continuity ended. Episode 10 was mostly cut from scenes found in the first 8 episodes. 9 and 10 were completely senseless. Nothing made any kind of sense. I don't know how anyone could have rated this any better than a 5 uncles they only watched the first couple of episodes or had a mental disconnect from flashing animation. What a letdown!

    I wanted to give 10

    I'm normally a little more liberal with my ratings. The animation in this show is great, and the action/fight sequences are top notch. That's why I wanted to give it 10, but..the story was a little too rushed, I never really felt emotionally attached to the characters or their stories, it was a more superficial feeling of connection. You ever watched something and thought "the writing isn't really bad or anything but for some reason it just feels a little wonky or off"? That's how I felt with this show. I make it sound like this show isn't worth watching with my semi harsh critics, but I def think this is something you should watch if you're into supernatural shonen drama. Love y'all, here's a hug 🤗

    More better if creator's explained it well

    The movie is all good story , concept , animation but it'll be a master piece if they explain movie well while watching soo many times I got confused how this happened.
