In a futuristic world almost barren of life, mankind is confined to mechanized domed cities where A.I.’s control all aspects of life. In this world, humans are no longer born, they are manufactured in a production line; and alongside them live androids known as autoreivs. Within one of these domed sanctuaries named Romdeau lives Re-l Mayer, one of a few citizens who aren’t entirely prevented from thinking. Her grandfather's prominent position and the affection of the scientist Daedalus have left her more free will than is normally allowed, but Re-l has started to question the sanctity of the city and the citizens' perfect way of life. With mysterious beings known as proxies causing havoc and a man named Vincent causing great influence on her life, Re-l must travel outside of the city to find the answers she seeks and discover the mystery behind "the awakening".

So slow and unnecessarily complex for me

Has a great dark atmosphere and the setting is interesting but the plot is pretty mediocre

I just couldn't understand why people think this is amazing. It's so boring and confusing

Rishi Chinnasamy

you don't know the half of it. follow along, obediently now, just so. be my little cosmic lapdog. you don't want to know what happened here.

deliciousamazing half the time i can't see a thing it is so dark but i accept that as my just deserts. intricate. pino is a delight.

Not that well known but definitely worth watching,more story oriented than action.

Watch all in one session and contemplate about the whole. Then rewatch and think about every episode and connect the dots.

Annah Makhongoana

Amazing anime, love the characters and story. The themes are mature and fascinating. The story is complex and definitely needs a rewatch.

Jourdan Cameron

An interesting, philosophically driven dark cyberpunk anime with interesting characters- and an ending that leaves much to be desired.

Binge this one
