Editor's Review
“Eden of The East” (Higashi no Eden) is an anime series that stands out for its unique premise and engaging storytelling. The series is produced by Production I.G and aired from April 10, 2009, to June 19, 2009.
The story revolves around an intriguing concept known as “The Shepherd,” an urban legend within the Shiomi Academy. The Shepherd is said to appear before hardworking students to grant them a wish. The protagonist, a likable and mysterious character, finds himself entangled in this legend, leading to a series of events that form the crux of the plot.
One of the strengths of “Eden of The East” is its ability to maintain a high level of mystery and suspense, leaving viewers eagerly anticipating each episode. The plot is refreshing and offers a unique take on the genre. However, the series is only 11 episodes long, which is quite uncommon for an anime. This short length, coupled with the announcement of two movies, leaves the series ending without much closure.
The art and animation quality of “Eden of The East” are commendable. The series boasts fantastic art in both characters and backgrounds. The opening and ending themes are artistically animated, providing a visual treat for the viewers. The soundtrack complements the series well, enhancing the overall viewing experience.
Despite its strengths, “Eden of The East” has its share of weaknesses. Only a few characters exhibit any real personality, and the series occasionally deviates from the main plot to focus on side stories. Some viewers might find the ending underwhelming, as it leaves several questions unanswered.
In conclusion, “Eden of The East” is an entertaining anime series that offers a unique and engaging plot. While it may not live up to its full potential due to its short length and lack of character development, it is still worth watching for its intriguing premise and beautiful art. The series serves as a reminder of the potential that lies within the realm of anime storytelling.
