When a bevy of beauties is forced to put their lives on the line to answer the call of duty, they end up on a journey to the hear of evil. A dark tale enlivended by a shocking mystery that will have you guessing until the final fade out.

great but not for everyone

this anime is very good but be warned first off you have to watch the first season, secondly its a very confusing anime make sure you pay attention its a it dosn't have that much action its all about the story and what the characters are going through. so if you just want an anime that keeps you entertained whithout thinking to much this is not for you but if you can appreciate depth than i recommend this August 22, 2008

Misaki Chronicles... an excellent anime!

This is a sequel to Divergence Eve (also a recommened anime)If you watch the ending of Divergence Eve, It shows Misaki and Kiri entering the Allied Base Camp. The sequel starts there and continues.
Sum of the Story
Knowing what happen at watcher's nest, Misaki wants to change the future so everyone can survive. She wants to be happy again, no more tears ever again. But the thing is... It's from the past. The story takes you when Misaki enters the Allied Base Camp and continues her way to Watcher's Nest. The sequel will fill in the gaps that were left in Divergence Eve. It's up to Lyar Von Ertiana and Kiri Marialate to go and figure out why watcher's nest hasn't been destroyed and also find Misaki.

I don't want to ruin the whole story. But you will see alot of events that happen in the past, so pay close attention to the story. The story will take place from the past and present. Also listen what the characters have to say. Sometimes they will give hints and a better understanding to the story. If you don't get what they are saying, enable the subtitles. Sometimes the subtitles will help you out and you will understand what they are saying. The graphics are much better and the acting is better. So they did alot of work in misaki chronicles. The sound of the wind is amazing! The effects are much better! As a little bonus, Misaki Father (Juzo) has a little role in the story and he will also have a big part of the whole story

The case comes in three cases. Disc One has ADV previews, Dvd credits and lanuage settings. Disc two and three have lanuage settings. It has 13 episodes. The Dvd is thin, so putting the case into a small place is no problem.

Reccommend: Of course!

Age: 16+

The ending is amazing! I'm not going to give it away, but it will make you think! I'm still trying to think of a logical explantion for the ending...(Updated) (I finally know what the ending means, it took me 4 weeks just to get it) Misaki Chronicles is very heartwarming! Buy the anime and enjoy Misaki Chronicles! You will know why i gave it 5 stars! March 19, 2008

The mediocrity continues

See my review of Divergence Eve for the technical "quirks" of this series. Most still stand in this "sequel". I've seen it said this series can stand alone without seeing Divergence Eve first, and I find that unlikely. Although it is a story in itself, much of the background from the first series is needed to really understand who the characters are and how they got where they are, and got the way that they are. Like the first, if you like series that you have to piece together in your head, or watch over again, it's a pretty good and thought provoking idea. This second series also focuses more on the character's motivations and feelings than the first. Still, neither does a great job of character development. It is good sci-fi, but could have been great sci-fi. Still I'll recommend it if you are into the space sci-fi genre, just be prepared to pay attention and fill in the blanks as the series progresses.

Caution

I'm sorry for rating this so low, but I'm writing the review to throw caution to the anime fan that has never seen this series. I have to mention that I love all kinds of animes and in my opinion I wouldn't recommend any anime that you couldn't watch for a second time, or even again and again. I do understand that people like this series, which are the fans who rated this so highly, and I respect that (which is good for them, and money well spent for them)... but unfortunately, I bought this before even watching one or more episodes. I bought both seasons, and feel duped. I thought it would have more of a storyline, more of all that creativity of which anime is. Not a bad anime, but not great neither (IMO). AND in my opinion they could have made two movies instead of two seasons.

BTW,

Season 1 "Divergence Eve: Complete Collection"
Season 2 "Misaki Chronicles: Complete Collection"

(If they were actual seasons IDK and really IDC).

OH man...

Well, I should have known from the cover but the price was soooo good...

The bouncy breasts are so frequent and out of proportion it is just stupid...
The story was not as meaningful as the atmosphere wanted you to believe...

This is one of the few titles in my collection I am sad to have made the purchase on.

I LOVE time travel stories, I always catch time travel movies and books. This one was not a highlight in my time traveling experiences.

In some places the story was so shallow... I felt like I was in a kiddy pool. Not impressive... and the 3D looks VERY much removed from the art.

Truly hard to watch. Completely a fan service anime... and little more IMHO. November 19, 2007
