Depressing and heartbreaking, yet fresh and inspired. The absolute best anime Noitamina made and a favorite of mine.

Reality Deftly Handled
As the world quakes with a disastrous aftermath, a story of humanity slowly seeps out through the rubbles of reality...
At the very least, it manages to tell a competent survival story.
