Anime: Kokkoku z2l3j

the only thing i from this anime is the opening song

Huge mystery, really nice story also kind of thriller. That was a nice watch. 8/10
Characters are not really likeable, but it's story and action that you should focus on.

Very unique story line, jump right into the point on eps.1. The story is a bit heavy tho, make you keep thinking what is going on, why this would happen, does this really make senses etc. The story is definitely one of those that you will even after a long time.

This is special. The idea of a whole show taking place in a world in that time stopped is what I hope we will see more often in the future: Creative!

I don't want to spoil anything, just this: It's not one of those shows that has an open / vague ending because maybe they want to do a sequel (which I hate). There is closure, and it's satisfying.

Dark, with some minor problems in pacing, but has a good and kind of unique cast and good ideas. I recommend this to everyone who finally wants to see something new.

The concept of this anime is UNIQUE!!

Besides this fact, it was quite.. underwhelming?

The whole idea behind "Specters" and a world that exists in a state of stopped time, is one of the most interesting ideas EVER used in anime. For this Fact alone, I recommend at least watching this one once.

However, after watching this, it just felt.. incomplete somehow. The exposition was below average, as our family gets transported to the world of "Stasis" with little explanation or reason as to why the viewer should care.

The Main female lead was GOOD! However, everyone else just feels like filler? Throw in a villain with half-assed motivations and you have yourself this = An amazing premise, but VERY weak execution.

By all means, DO NOT miss out on this one, it was quite alright, however it has no rewatchability (Which for me anyway is a HUGE factor on rating).

Hell, don't listen to me, you might like it. It is an alright sci-fi !

This was a good use of a Saturday morning. A complete story in twelve episodes with well fleshed out characters from heroes to villains. There is something to be said of a series that happens all before the 1st episode's opening theme. It was equally enjoyable to watch Juri go from hopeless to driven. The sacrifices she makes to save her family, are equal to the drive Shoko has to confront Juri. The constant misdirection of the villain along with his reason for what he hopes to achieve, keep him interesting until the end. The fact that everything from the last few minutes of episode one through most of the final episode happens within a single moment of time notches up the fiction. A realm called stasis with a single rule with dire consequences if ignored. The artwork is pretty consistent which is a big plus. The only downside for me was the sudden powering up of a character in the later third of the series.

Although this show does have some weak points, particularly in the middle ground, it makes for an excellent thriller wherein the backdrop is stasis-- suspended time. The primary cast is a single family with multiple generations, which makes for an interesting dynamic, and pretty much all of the characters are interesting, though some are more likable than others. I think, probably, what stands out the most about this show is its uniqueness. But on top of that, the production values stay pretty high throughout and it has a certain sort of spunk in the direction that keeps it entertaining even in those blase 'drama' moments. Recommended for fans of supernatural/speculative fiction. If it sounds interesting to you, it probably is.

Pretty bad ass thrilling sci-fi-ish that's mature while not going overboard.

The 1st thing that caught is definitely has to be tht OP by Miyavi, never fails to rock my body.
The very idea behind a world of stasis was pretty eccentric and imaginative itself. Add on with an engaging thrilling plot and a very good ambiance, and you will find yourself sucked in pretty early on.

Though the nature of the story itself might have been my only discontent, as the characters reduce towards the end the pace kinda slowed down. Updated: Wait I rewatch ep1 and wow the twist in the ending.

The animation and art though is pretty top notch. Crisp coloring and beautifully design characters. Ahem, love those ED scenes...

All in, highly recommended for the more mature crowd. 7/10 for me!

Very good show with mature, realistic and deep characters and an ongoing and engaging plot. Although playing out a fantasy story, it managed to be believable and grounded. It was also great in having a strong female lead and in avoiding many clichés of the anime world - if you overlook the ending animation. But that one is more than made up by the great opening.

This series has one of the coolest opening (songs) I have seen upto now. It's so colourful and has a funky feeling to it and is simply a great earworm.

The story is one of a kind - or at least the first I watched of that kind.
The world of "Stasis" was really interesting and with each episode you learn more about it. The family was not a "picture perfect" family and the dynamics were really interesting. The series was kind of realistic that way and that's what I liked a lot.

The pacing all over was good too - except for the ending which was a bit abrupt. Since it had a happy ending I liked it anyway.

If you finish watching the series rewatch ep 1 again - or at least the beginning of it. I liked that it kinda began the way it ended.

This anime has a lot of coolness in it and is recommended.
