Product: Air TV: The Complete Series S.A.V.E.
Rating: 5.0
Really tearjerking
This anime really doesn't deserve the shaft it recieves. I admit it's weak compared to it's followers Kanon and Clannad but there is something about Air which you cannot help but love it.Granted, the story is kind of incoherent at times but if it was twice a long as Kanon and Clannad, it would be much more clear about what the story's focus is.As it goes, the story is about a girl in the sky who was cursed over 1000 years ago. Only to find her again would be a dream. Although it's blantly obvious who that girl is, it is no less enjoyable and has a few side characters to make the story more interesting.Air is incredibly predictable but like I said, this should not get in the way of the story's effect on you, because the way it is told is so heartbreaking. A sudden effect would not be as strong, so this is a classic build up attachment to the characters.The last few episodes and ending is where most people get really confused. I didn't really understand either until I rewatched it again and did some research until I knew what it was. Won't give any spoilers away, but it really was sad and evoked a few tears from me as well.I do highly reccommend this anime but if you don't like sad animes that are just a downer for 90% of the series then you may not like this anime. I personally love it and consider it (along with Clannad and Kanon) to be one of the greatest love stories ever told.
