![]() From the beginning we follow a group of five children as they grow up in the anime and see how they develop within a community bounded by strict rules, and deal with the decisions they make that alter the course of their lives and the entire society they live in. ![]() Japan a thousand years from the present in a utopia where a portion of the population retain a special power called psychokinesis. However, I did give it a shot and after finishing the anime I can promise that it is truly a spectacle, a diamond in the ruff. During midst of 2013 I looked at Shinsekai Yori, the promotional picture did not catch my eye and the premises did not spark my interests. But I can promise that the majority of you, as did I, most likely did not have Shinsekai Yori as a pick. It is a very unique show with an amazing story that is good if you want something different than your typical slice drama, comedy, or action anime.Rewind back to the dawn of fall 2012, you are looking at the fall 2012 anime chart, and you pick probably 5-7 anime you are going to watch. Overall, I think I would recommend this anime. Also, if like being told everything directly rather than actually thinking and being trusted to figure stuff out yourself, maybe don't watch it. It's not the darkest show in the world, but if you only watch moe shows (which is basically me, but I like other stuff too) or you are really young (10 or under) you might not want to watch it. Also something that might turn people off this show is pretty dark and does not shy away from gore, death, or violence. That part of the story only really goes on for one episode, it's explained why it happened, and the mystery and interest comes back at the end of that episode. First of all, there's nothing wrong with that and it does nothing to impact the integrity or ingenuity of the story, and second, there are also a few yuri kisses in there as well ). It might be weird to mention this, but I don't want anyone turned off by this: there is a gay kiss in the show. It was a little weird watching them grow up at an irregular rate, but the coming of age style of storytelling does fit what is going on well. The ending is also well done, as it is with every great story. In my opinion, this way of giving people info about the world is really satisfying. At the start, everything is confusing and you have no idea what is going on, but the more you progress into the story the more things are explained and the more you find out. Looking back, there aren't any plot holes or anything that doesn't make sense, and everything I can remember fits in with the story well, no matter how weird it is. There are some slow parts, there are some weird parts, but the culmination of all this after you've finished the show is where it really shines. The story is by far this show's strongest point. There were a few episodes towards the beginning that had weirdly poor animation, but other than that it was mostly the same all the way through. That may be because of when it came out, but I don't really think so. The backgrounds and stationary objects were obviously done by people who cared, but the actual people and creatures that moved around felt a little flat. The animation I didn't really like, honestly. I actually noticed it at times, and usually I don't ever notice the music when I watch a show, it just adds to whatever mood it is playing over. The music in this show was really good, but not amazing. However, after finishing this show I can say with certainty that only a creative genius could have come up with this story. It was interesting, but it didn't really grab me that much. To be honest, up until about the 20th or so episode I was still apprehensive about this show.
