Awesome anime

It's a bit slow at first and I actually planned to drop it "soon, just let's see the next episode", but in the end I didn't - how glad I am! It seems many dislike the 8th episode (yaoi/yuri) but for me this is when things get super interesting. The characters turn 14 (12 was too young for me, I don't like series about children - can't relate at all, + I don't even like children), the introduction to the world of Shinsekai Yori is mostly done - the series no longer is confusing. I also liked the fact that homosexual relationships are shown as something widely accepted, natural (at that age even more common that heterosexual relationships? - I think it makes sense; when you're 14 it's easier to get close to a friend of the same gender and experiment with them, in Shinsekai Yori no-one will judge you for it)

I think the authors of this series are brillant - the world they created, the plot. It's clear that a lot of thought was put into the series, it's very unique and free of cliches. The emotion I feel when watching it... I no longer watch the episodes at night because then I can't sleep ;) It's all very exciting, sometimes heart-breaking (I did cry quite a few times).
