11 Eyes

11 Eyes. It's been a long time since I've watched fantasy anime. This anime has a very interesting plot. It starts as these 7 people have crystal like power within them. They are called fragments. One day when Kakeru and Yuka are walking to a market, they were suddenly pulled into another world. They call it the Red night. There, they met other people who also have fragments in their body. They first met Misuzu Kusakabe. She helped them survive that world by protecting them against the dark spirit. The soon met other people who were also puled into that world. They soon discovered that the creator of the world was a with called Liselotte. She was immortal and there is no killing her but to only seal her away. The black knights were the one who sealed her away but they had to pay a high price in order to do that. They had to give up their human form and transform into hideous creatures. They became the protectors of Liselotte's sealing and will keep the world safe from being destroyed. Keep in mind that when she was sealed she was transformed into a pure soul and looks innocent. Below is how she really looks like.

Liselotte's true form

The fragments which are pulled into the Red Night have the power to release the seal. The black knights fought them when they first entered giving them the wrong impression that they were evil. Kakeru and his friends killed 3 of the 5 knights and then did they only find out the truth behind their actions. They met Shiori Momono who was sent from an holy organization to help them prevent the world from being destroyed and to also explain to them what is happening. All 7 fragments: Kakeru, Yuka, Misuzu,Yukiko , Takahisa, Shiori and Kukuri posses a certain power.

Kakeru has the Eye of Aeon which has the power to see the future and Yuka has the power to nullify magic, Misuzu is from a strong a powerful clan which already gives her power. She can summon 5 different swords each possessing a different power. Yukiko has regeneration ability and cannot die but she also has incredible combat skills and speed since she was from a war country and was forced to fight. Takahisa's can summon fire; he was raised by a lady called Saiko who picked him up from the streets as he was abandoned by his parents.  Shiori's powers are a little blur from my point of view. She uses magic from the organization by creating magic circles. Kukuri actually resembles Kakeru's older sister who took her own life 7 years ago. Kukuri is actually not who she is. She is an angel called Demiourgos. Demiourgos was Kukuri's guardian angel when she was still alive. Kukuri also posses a fragment which also gave her power but since she took her own life, the fragment is powerless. Demiourgos gets her power form being an angel. Not by a fragment. 

Misuzu's 5  swords 

The story continues as they continue to battle the black knights and end the Red Night. Shiori lost her life battling the black knights as she was driven from pain and sorrow that they took Takahisa away from her. She wanted revenge.  Takahisa's adopted parent-Saiko, was killed by one of the black knights as they came from the Red Night into their own world. Takahisa was consumed by anger and went after the black knight destroying the city on his way. He didn't know that the black knight that he was chasing was merely an illusion. Yukiko was forced to kill him and if not, the whole city would be in flames. The black knights took the fragment from Shiori as she was wounded causing her to lose her regenerating ability and soon die. Yukiko actually has spilt personalities. With her glasses on, she is a very sweet natured girl. But, without her glasses, she can be very terrifying.

Takahisa and Yukiko

This anime is very hard to explain as the there are many facts to be considered. I like the story line and the fact that they incorporated many details. It is very unpredictable. 11 eyes only has 12 episodes. Episode 12 supposedly ends the whole story as they defeated Liselotte and went back to their own world resetting everything. Episode 13 is a bit of a comedy. Kakeru and his friends were then again pulled into another world. This time they called it the Pink Night. How ironic. When the entered that world, their powers got messed up. It is hilarious. I am surprised that they actually got to finish this anime in 11 episodes. They are no further questions as everything was well explained in the episodes. There might be a few points where I didn't understand but they explained enough to ease my curiosities. I hope that there will be season 2 although I'm not sure what I'm looking forward in that season. It will be interesting if the story continues

Enjoy 11 Eyes~
