The story starts out like most other fantasy animes, in something reminiscent of Eureka 7, but as the story progresses,see how the characters affect each other on such a deep emotional level, you'll see that this is not much of a sci-fi, mecha, kind of thing, but a romance and love anime that blows away all others....the ending was so very touching....i caught myself crying, which happens very little for me when watching anime, in fact, i think this is the first time i hav ever cried watching an anime....
