Impression
It’s finally here. In the beginning, I wasn’t gonna watch this series. But when all the hype about it from other bloggers, I felt that I needed to watch it too. It has a unique plot. This gave me a strange vibe when I was watching it. The opening really fit it well. Too well I think. The ending gave this anime a kinda sad and happy feeling. It feels as though something bad will happen, but it will lead to something good. I found out that there isn’t gonna one main character, but actually three. They all had traumatic encounters in their childhood. And this so called “Unseen World” peaked up my curiosity. I bet this anime will become really popular. I didn’t find anything bad about it. The next episode is called E.M.D.R. which is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. I don’t know what that means, but something about dreams and the world that dreams create.
