General Anime/Manga/Otaku Thread
Now and Then, Here and Again is a beautiful and well crafted show that I just came back from finishing. Never boring and always engaging, this series has a very serious tone through the whole story of this ravaged earth teared apart by war and by the main antagonist, Hamdo. The execution and cinematography of the show is fantastic and makes the series worthwhile.

The characters are all likable, with the always optimistic Shu being the main protagonist who remains the hope and light for many of the other characters who have had terrible things happen to them. The rest of the cast consists of some soilders and villagers that appear in the second half, all who are a joy to watch. Of course, this also makes some of the scenes tear jerking worthy as you start to become attached to them and feel sympathy for everything they have had to go through.

At the same time, some of the characters are what hurts the series, or to be more specific, the lack of justification with some of the characters.

With such a serious and well executed show, you would believe there to be some sort of theme, right? Through the whole show, I never felt that the show was trying to tell me anything, and was just showing me the ugliness of war and the effect it could have on people and their rash actions. After finishing the last episode however, I believe I may have found something close. It's so simple and basic, yet I think it's something I can believe and something that doesn't hurt the the show.

Overall, fantastic show that's only 13 episodes and something that I could definitely recommend.
