Oscar Wilde once said "Life imitates Art far more than Art imitates Life" which rings so true to Shin Sekai. The whole time I watched I felt as if this is real, this can be our future, the world is fucked up and the utopia in which the characters are living is no different.
Okay onto something a little more fun, Hayate the Combat Butler!
