Very heartwarming. The anime depicts a very interesting, technologically advanced world, which is quite unusual and captivating from the very beginning. Closer to the second half, however, there was a moment when I started to feel a bit bored, and some of the characters began to behave very strangely, but it passed. Overall – great. I think I'll remember one or two characters for a long time.
Last Exile (2011)
The sequel is some kind of fanservice nonsense. I watched the intro, and the exaggerated, pseudo-original characters' relationships were enough for me. I dropped it after half of the first episode.
