Currently there are three episodes of this out, I've only watched two.

Animation: 5/5
The style is great, the fact that the heroine doesn't seem to wear pants is great, and the fact that a little girl got smoked by a truck is great. All of the animation seems to happen in a very dark world where it is apparently the sun is always either setting or completely set, but that's alright. I'll forgive it.

Story: 2/5
Uninspired, unoriginal, and confusing. The plot is the same as any other plot where people make pacts with monsters and then run around kicking a**, only this time they decided to throw in a crazy element with doplegangers that doesn't make any sense, at least not for the first episode and a half. Apparently everyone exists three times, so there would be two other copies of me wandering around in the world, and the key difference is the amount of luck that these people have. If you meet yourself, both copies die of disease or accident, but it hasn't really said if that is still true if you are the original copy. From there the whole luck thing gets shifted to the original copy, or, if just one dies, it gets split between the other two. Really, what it feels like is pretty much everything from Type Moon that I've exposed myself, but with a crazy "The One" element to it. Really, if I was going to describe it, I'd say, take the movie "The One", Fate/Stay Night, and Shakugan no Shana, now put them all into one of those Yhatzee dice rolling cups and shake it until it is all one thing. It also doesn't help that apparently the heroine is like Sasuke in that she wants to go kill off her enigmatic big brother for a reason that isn't explained.

Audio: 3/5
Doesn't interfere with the show, but I can't remember any of it.

Opening: 5/5
There are absolutely no faults in the opening. It gives you an idea of the fast paced action that you're going to be seeing, since there is a fight scene in every episode that I've watched so far (remember I've only watched as far as the opening in episode 3 because my laptop needs a better graphics card or something and lags on HD video. I need my mom's laptop back)

Overall: 3.75/5

It is still worth watching, but I found myself laughing at inappropriate times, and really, it needs some comedy to break the waves and waves of seriousness that you are going to be bombarded with.
