Behind this gloomy name hides an anime worthy of greatest interest, directed by Tensai Okamura to the delight of our little eyes. Combining action, psychology, emotion, investigation, humor and fantasy, all against a backdrop of beautiful drawings and animations, this anime is not to be missed!

Ten years before the start of the anime, a "gate of hell" as she is called, appears in full Tokyo. Do not think of a wooden door that could knock as the door of his neighbor he stops putting his music background, no, think of something not palpable, much more esoteric kind of no mans land, dead zone and devastated. This zone change many things in the world, and those who return do not usually stand ...

Tokyo is walled, and the world saw the birth of many things since that event. Indeed, some humans are changing, and acquire a unique gift, a power, and the consideration that goes with weird, kind of compulsive obsession that has made each time he uses his gifts (the find is very Fun indeed, imagine that you feel compelled to walk on their hands every time you use your power of amputation of zebras at a distance). These men (or women) become devoid of moral sentiments, the soul that has room for pragmatism flawless, it is coming to terms (or contracting, depending on the version).
Besides these jolly fellows, we also see people turn into doll (or doll), a kind of trauma consistent, making it as an empty sense of goldfish in death and morphine. Their interest in their history is being able to send an observer, a kind of astral projection that allows them to see at a distance (but remember, they are devoid of feelings, so they do not even think about spying in locker rooms or quietly watching what may well be the vegetables in the fridge when you do not watch). They thus serve mainly as a spy obedient to those who use them, especially since the coming to terms can only see those famous observers.
These beings with supernatural powers become part of a world where they serve the causes or persons,

Now that I have laid the foundations of the world, I'll explain a little history. The psychology of the hero and his natural class would suffice to bring the anime on the podium sacrosanct celestial super manga, but it's worse than that, all the characters are more or less excellent, very worked, and the whole sprinkled with a course that keeps us in suspense until the last episode (well I ment, there are two or three episodes that I was less playful, but I exaggerate a little).

In short, the hero oscillates between joy Shen Shun Lee, coverage in real life, and his double secret super-agent character and indecipherable capacity relatively efficient. Hei whose real name is part of a secret organization in a group of three others: A cat named Mao (who is none other than coming to terms, you will understand by seeing the anime), Yin, a doll, and Huang, a gruff investigator who serves mainly as a relay with this organization.

Everything is rather vague at first, we know very little about coming to terms, the dolls, the door, holding and flowing, and As, all cleared, we learn that the guy in black armor is the father Luke and the ring of sauron is actually an earring to his wife HOBIT (do you really expect that I spoil?).

In short, an anime technically superb, with a world very immersive and very dark, people very worked in their psychologies and their mutual relations, government counterparts and very diverse, action, investigation, laughter The ongoing drama of the fatal course of things, excellent twists, blood, Yin and Misaki who are sexy, music and to top it all in just 25 episodes, so frankly I do not see why you do not look at it.

Incidentally, I speak here of the first season saw a second was released, but I will speak in a future article better than this one.
