Having watched the whole show halfway through, I found the characters to be really unlikeable and the story to lack a solid hook to keep me invested. Best of all, the music was done by Hiroyuki Sawano ( Attack on Titan, Kill La Kill, Promare).ĭespite all of these blessings, the show got mixed critical reception due to the poor quality of the script and the lacking characters. Key artwork for the show was done by Redjuice. The anime was directed by Tetsurou Araki who saw great success with Death Note and Highschool of the Dead and would later see meteoric rise thanks to Attack on Titan. Production IG is a prestigious studio that’s responsible for classics like Ghost in the Shell. This visual novel is a prequel to the anime of the same name, 2011’s Guilty Crown.įor some background, Guilty Crown was a divisive science fiction series from Production IG that seemed to have everything going for it. It was written by Jin Haganeya, who previously penned Demonbane & Dra+Koi for the same company. Over the past half a year, a good friend of mine and I have read through Guilty Crown: Lost Christmas, a 2012 visual novel from Nitro+.
