•Comment:
Amazing anime. Good story, not the least bit "draggy". Has thriller and romantic aspect attached to it. Again it is one of those anime's where you dont actually know what happens in the end, it's for you to decide. Lucy is not a villian, but rather an anti hero, someone you don't know to be with or against! In short, best 13 episodes ever.
