It is so goddang much like Eureka seveN.
I don’t mean like only the characters (though they are) because if it were just character trait similarities I wouldn’t care.
But Lost Christmas = The Summer of Love.
And Funeral Parlour = Gekkostate.
And the Apocalypse Virus = Desperation Disease (bit of a stretch there actually, I'll admit).
As far as characters go:
Shu = Renton
Inori = Eureka
Daryl = Anemone
Gai = Holland
Ayase = Talho
Tsugumi = Gidget (debateable)
And I assume that
But I'm not hating the show; I find it quite entertaining, but definitely not the show of the season. It felt like a show of the season in episode 4; now not so much. :\ 'Hoping the next episode will roll in some surprises.
Also this OST continues to amaze me. I want to buy it so bad. ;;
