Shinsekai Yori (From The New World) is an absolutely fascinating series.

As a series from the year 2012, it deals with extremely taboo themes such as: [spoiler]experimentation on the human genome and its consequences, same sex relationships, animal and human exploitation and relationships, and many others[/spoiler].

This series reminds me a lot of the anime "Parasyte" [spoiler]which dealt with similar themes concerning the relations between humans and other species[/spoiler].

The music and graphics are really original and they bring to life the atmosphere that the anime is trying to create.

I still had a little trouble with the animation style that was chosen, but I got used to it very quickly.

I was still quite surprised to see an anime without an opening. It's not a problem in itself, on the contrary, but that surprised me because it's quite rare to see that.

I really don't want to spoil by writing this review so I invite you to try your luck and watch at least the first 4 episodes (the story really starts from the 4th episode) it's really worth it.
