From the New World 新世界より Shin Sekai Yori



While I'm finishing Ni no kuni and waiting for my Bioshock infinite to get shipped, I'm watching an anime called 'Shin Sekai Yori' (From a new world).

I like it a lot it's about a bunch of kids who've been raised in a 'quiet' utopia like town called Kamisu 66th district. As they grow up they learned that the world they live in is not quite what it seems. All of this taking place in the future (of course...) not to far from Tokyo. Mostly all humans have 'powers' like telekinesis and such. But with all that power comes, no... not responsibilities but comes trouble and troubled minds.

It's a manga adaptation from Yusuke Kishi published by Kodansha. I did start to read the manga and stopped after 3 volumes, I prefer the anime by far... The manga has too much loli + girl on girl + Yaoi all mixed up together. Some ppl might like it, I don't. I prefer that they focus on those 'powers' and the history of humanity rather than the cuddle-cuddle lovey stuff. But that's me.

I showed the serie to a friend this past week and he also couldn't stop watching them :)
Good one for the season!
