It's time for shows from this season to start finishing, and the first one I completed was The Girl in Twilight since I got caught up on it this weekend and enjoyed it enough to stay up late and catch the final episode right when it came out. I'll spoil the basic premise below but it's nothing you wouldn't know from watching episode one, I'm just mentioning that as a warning in case anyone is planning to watch it and wants to go in blind to be pleasantly surprised like I was.

Anyway, there were a lot of elements about this that appealed to me. I liked all of the characters, particularly Asuka. I'm sure a lot of people would find her annoying but I love high-energy cheerful types like her, and I liked the depth her backstory reached. The other characters grew on me a lot over the course of the story, too. I also love parallel worlds as a concept since they open up a lot of options for exploring characters in different situations, and this anime certainly explored some unique situations! The action scenes were also consistently impressive too, I enjoyed the use of CGI in them.

However, The Girl in Twilight wasn't perfect. I enjoyed every single one of the adventures individually, but I feel like there was something missing for the overall whole to really come together into something special. I'm not asking for scientific technobabble about the parallel worlds, but the characters took everything in stride a bit too much, and several things I wanted to see addressed never were. Still, that's a minor complaint, and is mostly just a fancy way of saying that they shot for a different tone than the more serious one I would have preferred. The Girl in Twilight was still a fun anime with a lot of nice moments, and I'm glad I watched it.
