Under the pseudonym 'Nanase Hikaru,' Itou Masumi has written music for a large variety of works, most notably the VN Muv-Luv Alternative, Infinite Stratos, Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom and CANAAN. Unlike many of the composers I've spoken about so far, Nanase's style is primarily orchestral in nature with strong influences derived from classical and baroque music. Much of the OST is very cinematic and thematic in nature, traits (particularly the latter) not always found in anime soundtracks.

I know what you’re thinking at this point – “He’s still alive? It’s a Christmas miracle!” Actually, probably not and those same readers probably don’t want some long meta explanation as to why I’ve been absent when you’re just here for an anime review. Don’t worry, I feel your pain; my excuse is related . [...]

Fourth up for My Not so Secret Santa Project is Noein. It was kindly suggested by TheBigN. I didn't really have any idea what I was in store for but lets just say it was alright, lackluster ending aside... Noein is complicated but not really. It's about time/space travel. In the future there is a war [...] Related posts:Not so Secret Santa: Shion no Oh Not so Secret Santa: NightWalker Not so Secret Santa: Joshikousei

TAAN: I doubt many people have heard of Noein. I wouldn’t have known about it if my brother didn’t tell me, and he heard about it from some guy suggesting anime which are amazing yet no one’s heard of. Well, that may be moot now, since apparently the Syfy channel airs it, and the dub [...]

Some shows suffer from a lack of original ideas and bad stories. Others, like Noein, suffer from an excess of admirable ambition and the need to cram ideas into one series, ideas that weigh so heavily on the foundation of the story that it simply collapses by the end, leaving only some of its virtues [...]

When a 26 episode series costs only $17.50 on sale at Best Buy, and has been critically acclaimed, you have to buy it. And for once, I wasn’t disappointed, at least not yet. I had to laugh when I saw a blurb on the back of disc 1 proclaimed it to be “anime’s version of Stand [...]

In the end, I enjoyed Noein. Just, what was it I saw? In part, Noein is a mindfrag anime, using quantum physics and that cute theory that all possibilities exist all the time in their own separate dimensions as decoration. The details of the quantum-p babble really aren’t important to grasp (but [...]

Okay. That was amazing. Noein: To Your Other Self has recharged my anime batteries for sure.

What can I say about Noein? Well I must admit it was actually better than I had thought. Everything from the storyline, to action scenes, and character development. It has been one of the more enjoyable series that I have watched recently. A science-fiction drama that is not clichéd like many other sci-fi series that [...]

Kazuki Akane, the director of the anime Noein, was quoted as calling the series “anime’s version of Stand By Me” in an ad I saw in the October 2006 issue of Newtype USA. Now I’ve seen the entire Rob Reiner movie but only the first episode of Noein; I suppose the analogy works because both [...]

“The Beginning” Greeeeeat ending. I really didn’t have any doubts about that, though. This series has been paced quite well for the most part. Sure, I thought [...]

I feel like I've been watching Noein for years now and writing this entry is daunting. Complex multi dimensional time travel, heart breaking tragedy and gut wrenching friendships. Here is a series bursting with ideas and without breaking into an essay length review, it's hard to do justice to the sheer narrative majesty of Noein. I marathoned the last 6 episodes tonight and I'm now lulled somewhere between admiration and confusion. There is no denying Noein was heavy on time travel techno-babble and I'd be lying if I said I unders..

“The End” Another great episode down the hatch and this one really set things up nicely for the final episode. I doubt we’ll be seeing any rush job of an ending in this series, and that’s a very good [...]

Noein is an outstanding anime. Heck, at the moment, Mahou Shoujotai is the only anime I can think off which has made a bigger impact on me. This anime is that incredible. It’s a science-fiction series, but it cleverly stays away from all of the clichés that the other science-fiction shows are so often plagued [...]
