Review:

I was wondering why my nee-chan include this anime to her 'watching' list in her myanimelist account. I searched about it and I dind't really find it exciting and fun, though after my nee-chan forced me to watch this anime, I realized that my first impression was TOTALLY wrong. Wanna know why? Read this:

Story: The story revolves around two main characters who works as a detectives with superpowers. If your imaging superpowers like Superman, it is completely different. Their superpowers are called Minimum. It is really hard to explain but it is awesome :D

Characters: The characters are very promising. This two main characters also work together with more characters. They are in a group of people who have Minimum and use that power in detective work. Some character's minimum are already revealed though others are still to be introduced.

Art: Art? I like this anime's art. It is somehow unique and fits with the generation's "modern type" atmosphere.
