[JNE-REMUX][HorribleSubs] No. 6 - 11 [720p][FINAL]


-------------------------------------------











I really hoped they had a good ending for all this. I really did. And by that I meant that they had a flowing explanation that puts everything in place. So the Eleyulias thing was a giant bee? Or a giant bee god? Or something? No.6 tried to "awaken" it by putting bits of it in people, but instead it creates parasite bees instead? This giant bee god that produces parasitic offspring is supposed to heal the land? Safu died?

You name it. Was Eleyulias that necessary for No.6 that they needed to awaken it, even if it lead to their ruin?

The whole forest-folk stuff was pulled out of nowhere too. If I had to compare this show to another, I'd say it's pretty close to Shangri-La, complete with [highlight to read]outside-faction vs utopian city, environmental themes and random mythology/gods pulled out of nowhere, not to mention the ??? ending.

It did a better job though, so I'm actually pissed more at the lost potential rather than at No. 6 turning out to be a meh/confusing show overall. It concentrated on a smaller cast and developed on them to the point where we were probably more interested in THEM than the overall secrets behind the story. Even though the plot overall kinda failed, the characters themselves provided enough backbone to the story that I could still say it was worth something.

At the very least, Sion's mum didn't die. That would have been the last straw.

Overall I can't say this was my favourite given the ending, but it's one of the better distopian anime out there.
