Alessandro A @RT14928326 05/30/2024 Actually I enjoyed it. Animation good and the storyline is not as predictable as many others of this kind. Also the characters are well designed. Also warfare was not idealized as in many other animes: it shows all the cruelty and suffering associated with it. See more Read all reviews
