Level E doesnt take take itself too seriously, and yet, you will probably take it seriously at least once or twice. Initially you will think this anime is hardcore science fiction(...and maybe it is) ,but, then the plot twists comes and you realize its not that kinda show....or is it? Suddenly the show becomes a horror genre and you shake your head in confusion but the plot draws you in again,keeping you at the edge of your seat for three more episodes only to twist on you you agian. So yea its one of those hard to describe experiances. A paradox in the world onanime. Its no epic yet its epic. So give it a go you wont regret it.
