Noein

[Andromeda18_]

ah i really liked the artwork, though at first i didn't, it really grew on me. i like the style it has doesn't look like all the others. and it gets better. the story is really good and i think the art seems to get better, i really like how some of the fight scenes were done....where's andromeda i know she's seen this.

Seen it, loved it, and am seriously considering watching it again. If only I didn't have so many series to watch!
At first I thought the artwork was a bit awkward but I fell in love with the story almost immediately and for me it's the story that matters the most. After a while I got used to the artwork and began to really appreciate it, it's part of what makes this anime unique. There are 4 anime series that I consider to be the best of the best, Noein is one of them (the others are Mushishi, Otogizoushi and Last Exile).
A friend lent me his Arjuna box set (from the same creators) a while ago but so far I've only watched the first episode (artwork is similar).
