    I Thought It Was Cute... Until It Broke Me

    What began as a seemingly cute and innocent story about a cheerful alien visiting Earth slowly unfolded into something far more disturbing and emotional than I ever expected. I was completely caught off guard by how deep and dark the narrative became. As the layers peeled back, the heartbreaking reality hidden behind the smiles hit me harder than I thought possible. The soft, almost childlike animation style only made the pain feel more real - like it was hiding something tragic beneath the surface. It's a short watch, but one that left a heavy impact on me and lingered in my mind long after it ended.

    Anime of the year

    10/10 - Takopi's Original Sin is a heartbreaking yet beautiful story that mixes innocence with deep emotional pain. Its art style contrasts the dark themes perfectly, making the impact even stronger. From a human perspective, it captures the tragic weight of trauma, regret, and the desperate desire to do good. Every chapter leaves a lasting impression, and Takopi's journey is one that sticks with you. A short but unforgettable manga that hits right in the heart and makes you reflect on the complexity of kindness and suffering. Its storytelling, pacing, and emotional depth make it a truly rare and powerful experience.

    A very impactful beginning

    Very very depressing and impacful beginning that shows how each life is effected by 1 person and their actions. This anime left me and my siblings in tears, the first episode is so sad... the central topics of this show I did not expect to be so depressing. I knew it would have some sadness in it for the plot to work, but I did not expect it to be so incredibly heavy, especially for the first episode.

    It's hard to cry over someone you just met, but that character and what she whent through makes it really easy to sympathize and experience her life o.o If you like Omori, this show definitely has those vibes at the moment.

    Amazing production -- heart wrenching Story

    I knew the Manga for a long time, but I never got to read it. I knew it was handling some hard themes, but that didn't prepare me. This Pilot gives me what it is supposed to give me -- a feeling of being unwell, sad and devastated. It looks beautiful and the characters are very good.

    I like how Takopi is the contrast to the depressing Story. It shows the cruel nature of the human species or more specific -- how evil kids are -- especially if they are growing up in a brutal household. His reaction are so pure and non understanding of what is happening right now, that it is supposed to make us realize that what is happening in schools and in our daily life isn't supposed to be normalized.

    This show isn't for everyone and if someone is struggling with mental health issues, they should really consider if they could handle such themes. Nevertheless it is an Amazing Pilot and I only heard good things about the Manga so I hope that the full six Episodes gonna be on the same level of greatness.

    sad

    > "A creation that spreads happiness to bring her joy, gave me hope to change her life for the better, until I reached the dolls in anime. The drawing style gives an impression that channels all your emotions and sadness into the tragedy and life of the fragile girl. At the same time, you can see an escape and a glimmer of hope for her life to become better and filled with happiness." > "I loved how the work shows us that wrong decisions affect even children, and how anger is poured out onto them. I hope the message and the true idea of the work are received, and that such behaviors are addressed and reduced in our society."
