INTRODUCTIONFafner Exodus which debuted in 2015, is a continuation of the Fafner franchise. The show is set in the year 2151 and portrays a world that has been decimated by the Festums, an alien race that has attacked Earth several times. A crew of teenage pilots who are tasked with battling the Festum and defending their world is the subject of the television series. We shall examine the merits of Fafner Exodus as one of the greatest shows I've ever had the pleasure of watching.
STORYLINE
The storyline in Fafner Exodus is so intricate and compelling that it will hook viewers from start to finish. The world in the series has been devastated by an alien invasion, and humanity is fighting to live against an overwhelming foe. A squad of young pilots are given the chance to control the Fafner mecha, potent machines that are humanity's sole chance for survival in the midst of this catastrophe. As the story goes on, the pilots are forced to face the harsh reality of combat, challenging moral choices, and their own inner demons.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
The exceptional character development in Fafner Exodus sets it apart from other anime series. Viewers will become emotionally immersed in the challenges and victories that each cast member faces because each character receives sufficient screen time to develop and change. Particularly masterfully written and intensely emotional is the 110% homoerotic relationship between Kazuki Makabe and Soushi Minashiro, the two main protagonists. Viewers will find themselves rooting for these two individuals to get through the challenges in their path and discover true happiness as the series goes on.
VISUAL DESIGN
The beautiful visual design of Fafner Exodus is yet another important feature that distinguishes it from other anime series. The fight sequences are among the most exciting and dramatic you will ever see in an anime (especially in episode 9 of season 1), and the mecha designs are extraordinarily intricate and detailed. Also well drawn are the backgrounds and landscapes, which let viewers visualize the setting in which these folks live.
MUSIC
It goes without saying that no discussion of Fafner Exodus would be complete without highlighting its outstanding score. The series has a grand, symphonic show that properly conveys the scope of the narrative. The music of Fafner Exodus is amazing, such The opening theme, "Exist," by the Japanese band angela, who is most known for their work on anime like Knights of Sidonia and K, with its soaring vocals and potent orchestration, the song wonderfully encapsulates the grandiose spirit of the series. A magnificent animation sequence that introduces the series and incorporates mecha combat and character moments set to music is the opening animation sequence.
▶ VideoCONCLUSION
Fafner Exodus, as a whole, is at its best when it is showing its ability to emotionally engross viewers in the struggles and triumphs of its characters, and anybody who watches it will be strongly impacted by its complex themes of friendship, survival, and sacrifice.
It is without a doubt worth watching, and I heartily suggest it to everyone who likes exciting mecha warfare, engaging characters, and beautiful animation.
Overall, a 10/10 and I would highly recommend anyone to go through the Fafner series just for this masterclass of fiction.
