[59] Anime[edit] The first episode earned a positive response by Anime News Network due to the dystopian premise and amount of character, while being compared to Blame!, and the animation produced for both human and monster designs. [60] They noticed that the series appears to heavily focus on the gender, not on Kiruko's "experience of trans men, but rather as means of interrogating and playing with rigid gender constructs in a more generalized sense. Gender affects all of us, across the entire spectrum of identity and presentation, so thinking about gender critically and flexibly is an important thing to do. " They further praised the relationship between Maru and Kiruko for how caring they are with one another and noted that the flashback's incestuous "angle might just be sensationalism for the sake of it, but I don't mind that extra splash of taboo when the full picture is this interesting. "[61] Anime Feminist enjoyed the handling of the animation as well as the dynamic between the two leads with Maru looking suspiciously similar to another person featured in the parallel story. Nevertheless, they mentioned the amount of gender violence when people try to attack Maru and Kiruko. [62] With the eventual revelation that Kiruko is a young man who had his brain transplanted to his sister's body, the website was optimistic about the handling of the main duo; for Maru still coming across as likable when confessing his feelings to Kiruko and not sounding homophobic in response to the twist. They were troubled by the repercussions this twist has in regards to Kiruko's feelings, however, as her early scenes from the first episode now made her look incestuous. [63] Comic Book Resources also noted the series gender norms due to how "complex" they found Maru and Kiruko's relationship as Maru still seems to retain his affection towards Kiruko despite knowing she is actually male while Kiruko was compared to a transgender character who is trying to accept the idea of having a female body. [64] Before the series' release, Polygon stated that despite the absence of talented creators in the staff of the production aside the studio and the composer Kensuke Ushio, they noted that the series looks intriguing, and the animation is impressive. [65] Clarin and Meristation compared the anime to the video game The Last of Us for the post-apocalypse setting it provides with the main duo exploring areas like its two protagonists, Ellie and Joel.
