Though the show boasts a fairly broad cast, the scriptwriter (or, possibly, the author of the original game) actually only knows how to write three kinds of characters. Speaking of n, letвЂ™s take a little break to talk about the characters.

Every episode opens with a similar narration, each slathered liberally with вЂњmetaphorsвЂќ and вЂњanalogiesвЂќ and other such things that the scriptwriter smugly pats himself on the back for remembering from secondary school, and none of them are any more meaningful than the others-and once the character n (pronounced вЂNanoвЂ™), who has been providing these narrations, enters the story, the viewer is treated to the same half-assed pseudo-depth in his dialogue. In retrospect, the opening narration of the first episode-delivered by an utterly bored, slow, monotonous and uninvolved Takumi Yamazaki-was probably describing the war and the proceeding division, but if it is, itвЂ™s through a metaphor so thick and incomprehensible that itвЂ™s completely nonsensical if the viewer is not already familiar with the plot (a point which IвЂ™ll return to later). I learned that from the plot summary on MAL.

Firstly, the backstory-the splitting of Japan-is never mentioned in the series itself. ThatвЂ™s because, even after completing the show, IвЂ™ve barely been able to string together a series of events. You may have noted that my plot description is rather vague. The prize is, from what I can gather, leadership of some kind of illicit drug company, which the strange woman wants to take down from the inside. While awaiting trial, a strange woman offers him freedom on the condition that he move to Toshima, the lawless region, and participate in some kind of battle royale.

The main character, Akira, is some kind of professional street fighter in the more civilised region before he is falsely accused of murder. The story is simple (but donвЂ™t let the story know that-it carries itself as though it is the most sobering parade of manвЂ™s inhumanity to man since the last time someone made a holocaust film): in the not-so-distant future, a third world war has split Japan into two fractions: one which has been civilised and rebuilt (of which we see very little), and another which is a lawless wasteland. Togainu may be the greatest slight to the reputation of the genre yet. This does nothing to improve the reputation of BL, whose detractors dismiss it all as shallow, pandering garbage, insulting and even offensive to actual homosexuals and its fans and followers as noisy, awkward high-school girls of unrefined taste with no appreciation for the finer points of artistic pornography. The genre, despite its booming popularity and flourishing diversity in manga and doujinshi, suffers greatly somewhere in the transition to animation-for some reason, the anime industry doesnвЂ™t like the genre very much, and even hugely popular titles are treated to adaptations with cut corners and

But the most tragic part is how horrifyingly embarrassing it is to the BL genre and its fans. It is an embarrassment to A-1 Pictures, who have proven with titles like Birdy the Mighty DECODE and Ookiku Furikabutte that they can do better. It is an embarrassment to Nitro+, the producers of the source material.
