  • @ArchdukeJames Wow, I didn't know hipsters even existed in the world of anime. Interesting.

  • EXP:

    In an interview with the creator of this series, Yoshitoshi ABe said that the city of Glie was an intermittent world, a place where people who died went before going on to the afterlife. He also said that all of the people born as Haibane had committed suicide in their previous life, even the children. The explanation (which is said in the series too) is that the bodies of the Haibane are different then the ones they had on Earth.

  • @LTVCorp It's because he wrote it based on his dreams. Dreams don't always have a fixed plot. Neither does life! It's slow-paced and lets you take in the setting and the feelings in stride.

  • @DemonKingDaimao

    Love this series. The only other recent series I would recommend is Puella Magi Madoka Magical, if you haven't seen it. Its very different, but chaotic, thought provoking, and done really well. Don't let the first episode fool you, it isn't what you think it will be.

  • EXP Continued:

    So they may look like children and teenagers now, but when they were living on Earth they could have been full-grown adults. Why they are reincarnated as children is never said, though I have my own theory. In the show it is said that "Even if a Haibane encounters someone from their previous life, they would not recognize you." What makes a Sin-bound Haibane different I think has to do with the 'circle of sin' mentioned near the end of the series.

  • So hard to find a great series like this nowadays. Sadly, not much people know of this beautiful thought provoking series. I'm open to any suggestion if anyone knows of any animes similar to this to watch :D

  • @NarutoGeek6093 holy shit i've never heard of that and have known the series for like three years. that just totally axplained EVERYTHING to me! thanks!
