Anime Spotlight #12: Guilty Crown

Description:
In the near future, the outbreak of a terrible disease called the Apocolypse Virus places Japan under the military rule of a global organization called the GHQ - a group tasked with checking the spread of the virus and administering vaccinations. Apathetic high school student Shuu Ouma lives in Tokyo, spending his days editing videos and trying to be left alone. But things change when he meets the beautiful pop idol, Inori, who is on the run from GHQ soldiers. While trying to save her from her captors, he acquires a mysterious power called the Void Gene that allows him to pull items or weapons from anyone under the age of seventeen. Now, Shuu must decide whether to join the efforts of the well-funded radical terrorist group "Funeral Parlor" and fight against the GHQ, or shrug off his newfound power and resume his normal life - assuming that either the GHQ or Funeral Parlor's charismatic leader, Gai, will let him.

Review of Guilty Crown

First off... I know loads of people are saying how much this reminded people of other anime but to be honest most anime now remind us of other anime if we have watched so many. But there is normally something which is utter unique and to me I found that and it was the most amazing thing ever.

The storyline was alike to other anime but also different. The fact that I got hooked with the storyline from the 2nd episode means it will be a great anime unless something goes dreadfully wrong. The storyline kept me so intrigued for more and when somit happened out of the ordinary and I was actually shocked you should have seen me and heard me... my family was a little weird and some of the expressions I was making at certain points in this anime. And let’s not forget the fact this anime "Made ME Cry".

The Animation and Sound was amazing and perfect in every way. I rarely speak much of the Animation and Sound as I doubt I could do a better job to me, so it would take a lot to make me un happy with the Sound and Animation. Also the voice actors were perfect in the "Dubbed" version although I have heard the subbed is much better.

The characters... wow... What can I say about that. First off the main Boy in this yes, was a little bit of Wimp and cry baby at times but SO WOULD I, if I was thrust into the life he was thrown in. He made mistakes, he got people killed and hurt. But to be honest... he learnt from those mistakes and tried rly hard to be strong and do the right thing. The main Girl was pretty amazing and I loved her from the get go. I loved how she cared about him even when everyone else turned their backs on him.

Overall I loved this Anime with a passion and the ending was amazing.
