Kara no Kyoukai.

Kara no Kyoukai is a novel (later adapted for 7-parter movie series) by Kinoko Nasu of Type-Moon fame. He's done a really good job, considering that traditional novels have to be three times as exciting to compare with that of a visual novel.

Some people do ask why I like it. Well, to put it short, it's awesome.
I actually watched it only after reading the genre tag on it: romance.
It's got a dark setting and environment, true, but welcome home juxtaposition!
The darker the shadows are, the brighter the light is.

And the music... Kalafina ftw! And this I safely say that the soundtrack is Kajiura Yuki's magnum opus.



Feel very free to listen. It sounds sepulcheral at first, but by 2:00 it will be the most beautiful thing to grace your ears. The music that plays grandly when a couple, through all odds, find their happiness in one another.



"I'm won't ever let you go."
- Mikiya to Shiki

Just heartwarming.

p.s.

Ryougi Shiki... did somethings pretty nasty (justified though, lucky Mikiya). And she's a girl.
Looking at proportions...
