My first thought when this intro started was this is going to be a generic one, but I quickly realized I was wrong. The intro has a number of interesting aspects that give it a unique feel, such as the view entering the womans mouth at around 0:20, that red lighting effect at around 0:32, and the really cool stained glass look for the faces just before a minute in.

The animation looks really nice, with some impressive visual effects such as the way skin dissolves from the characters to reveal their skeletons. And I particularly liked the aesthetics of the way the red and blue faces merge for a kiss starting at around 0:16.

The theme song didnt strike me as going too well with the horror oriented visuals theme at times. But I liked the song enough that it didnt really matter.

The weakest element here has to be Story, since the intro shows a LOT of characters I know nothing about without having seen the show. But theres enough atmosphere and creepy imagery here to give a strong sense for the tone. Im getting the vibe this is some kind of blend of romance and horror. I could be completely off about that, but the point is the intro at least gives me the sense of a meaningful story, even if I have no idea about the details.

Pretty good intro overall.
