A kid falsely accused of a crime he didn't commit who now has to live through a Gladitor type of atmosphere for the enjoyment of TV viewers. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for some gory action and interesting setting. Even though it doesn't end the story, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Also, it is sad to see there is no sequel for it since we don't really get to see a proper end of the story, many of the stuff is just laying around, begging for a sequel. They could have made it 24 episodes long and fleshed out the large character cast a lot because it just felt rushed in the later episodes. It's a crime that this anime was only 12 episodes long. The soundtrack was decent too, which helped elevate some key moments. Plus, the anime thrives at displaying it in a brutal manner. There is a lot of good action, cool looking powers and techniques and LOTS of gore. Aside from him, there are TONS of other characters, many who are pretty good, my favourite being The Crow (Shinji), who also has his own OVA, which was great. I thought he would be yet another wimpy annoying brat, but thankfully he didn't go in that department far enough and he grew on me. The protagonist is your usual clichéd kid who gets some kind of special power but doesn't know how to work it yet etc. Instead, we get bits here and there in almost each episodes, this increases your interest about finding out everything. We don't get any explanation about the world, the setting, the event etc in the start. It starts off with a bang so I was interested in it from the get-go. This anime is definitely aimed at a more adult audience.
