ID:Invaded

To have more understanding of the series try learning something about Freud's definition of Id, Ego, and Super-Ego.

I just don't understand why people have given this series such low ratings to make the average a mere 7.

The plot was very unique to say the least. The show is based around a machine that is used that allows the detective to dive "wells" from serial killers (which can be seen as their unconscious). Through these wells the deceives figure out who the serial killer is and who their victims are/will be. I really enjoyed the story over all and there were many twists that I did not expect. Some of the characters in this show are pretty basic and don't have any development. But the main character and even two side characters have development that drive the story. Throughout the show, the main character's story is revealed slowly as his character develops. Sakaido has got to be one of my favourite characters at the moment (especially due to his voice acting, his voice actor has a great voice and displays emotions very well). I really enjoyed the show and I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of mystery, thriller, or detective shows. The strong point was definitely how unique the plot was.

I was leaning towards a 10 but I thought I should save it, but honestly, this anime is a 9.5 in my book. It's visuals are amazing and probably my favorite aesthetic of the season, the style and color pallet look amazing to me. On top of that the music is absolutely amazing, I have both op and ed saved to my playlist. The story is intriguing and keeps you waiting for the next episode keeping a detective theme with sci fi elements. The characters are done quite well and they all feel quite three dimensional. The anime excels in every category and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

It's really amazing anime of this season ! Best story , best music .

Inception meets anime.

-interesting concept and ideas that are well explored without the need to become overly philosophical.

• GREAT characters. All have their own personalities, even minor members of the ID team are personable

-solid plot. Varied stories that comverge together for a final showdown.

-engaging, thoughtful and well-paced.

-has a good conclusive ending, but just open enough for a sequel if there were to be one.

-solid animation, if not spectacular - makes up for it with some solid art direction for the id wells.
