Erufen Rīto

From the first image of the complex to the final resolution, I have remained gaping and still haven't recovered until now. Lucy cannot be unloved, and likewise, it is impossible to dislike this cruel, violent, romantic mixture with only borderline acceptable innuendos and erotic images. These feelings simply cannot be properly expressed with ordinary words. Several times I caught myself feeling physical tension before each subsequent episode, fearing for the fate of the characters. Lucy, Kouta, Yuka, Nana, Mayu - I will not forget them. The last episode is the most emotionally charged thing I have ever seen in anime. (29.12.2006)

It is primarily a romantic story, although its roots are very tragic. Kouta's trauma of losing his sister and father drags throughout the whole story. It is a silver thread that has great significance and is fully explained only in the last episode, which I wouldn't hesitate to call a grand finale. A very emotional episode, which almost lacks humor, but that is because it truly manages to shake your emotions. This is how conclusions should look like. A great farewell to a series that came up with interesting ideas, a series that is original and creates incredible combinations that you would think could never work. But they can and do work.
