I honestly had loved this series from beginning to end, but might I say I disliked the ending mainly due to the fact I'm a huge softy, and as well Neir's victory felt so unfinished, I would had possibly been more satisfied if they would had gave it more time for the story to digress but this is one of my all time favorites and the second anime I have ever watched back in 2014.

I like this anime. It's probably one of my favorite Anime I've ever watched in my Life (even though this is the first one I watched). It has a good story which gives it a good catch. Even though there are some characters which people who watched this don't like (trying to prevent spoilers). Which overall is entertaining for a time of quarantine. I wish they can continue this Anime series. 😕

It’s better than the stupid Netflix movie. But, I am pretty scared of Ryuk my sisters like it and they made me get interested.
