Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
fateschild This story is controversial to say the least. Many people are automatically turned off by the topic of forbidden love, but I believe that this is a strength. How many stories ask you to re-evaluate your perceptions of life, love and morality? Don't let this aspect of the story turn you away. The animations are gorgeous and the story is solid. Everything is challenged. Heaven and Hell. Good and Evil. Love. A mature show with complicated morality. I fell in love with Angel Sanctuary the first time that I say it. The only drawback is that it is not a movie and the one disc/tape leaves you with a major cliffhanger. However, if you enjoy this show, the manga form is now available at any major bookstore.
linkaesthetic Angel Sanctuary is quite a complicated anime. It is not meant for young viewers or ones that get weirded out by certain love interests. Kaori Yuki has a very unigue style of art that is both mysterious and beautifull. This anime is probably one of her best works. It is about an angel that rebelled against God and lost, thus being reborn as a human boy. However now, Angels and Demons alike flock towards his awaking, thirsting for battle that only Alexiel can bring.
Gyrfalcon I saw a comment (more like an essay) on here awhile ago about this beautiful piece of art Yuki Kaori has made for us. Yes, this anime displays, even glorifies bisexuality, incest...this anime forces you to despise it or vastly change your views. It forces you to see past the fact that Setsuna falls in love with his sister. Take a chance and just watch it, don't pick it up in Blockbuster and put it down in disgust. What do you have to lose? If you aren't cheering them on at the end, if you don't hunger for more, you have no heart.
lia00027 I don't know what is the script writer think when made this UGLY AND FOOL LOVE STORY like this. May be the main idea of the story is good enough, but see brother and sister is being lover that's really make me sick, It was so disgusting. The illustration is not bad, but that doesn't enough for me to like this serial.
