Summary: The story of a student named Kei Nagai , who discovers he is an "Ajin" when he is fatally wounded in a traffic accident. Ajin are considered dangerous and inhuman by the public, and most are captured by governments.

The concept for this show is really good, but the main character Kei is really insufferable. He is rude, selfish, hurts everyone around him on purpose with no remorse, and really has no redeeming qualities. He's alright for the first few episodes but after that it's all downhill. This coupled with the fact that its done in the same 3D animation style as RWBY and Houseki no Kuni is a big turn off for me, as I'm not a fan of this animation style for TV shows.

Season 2 is kinda boring, I actually haven't even finished it, but basically as you can tell from the description its Ajins versus humans, and some Ajins just want to live a normal life whereas others want to annihilate humans so they can be in peace. Same goal, different idea of how to get there, which creates an extra conflict of interest as well as the humans vs Ajins one. If fantasy anime is your thing I would say give it a try, maybe you'll like it more than I do! But personally its not one of my favorites, and I probably won't finish it. The opening is good though, give it a watch!
