Eden of the east is one of the anime that i think is very original and one of the masterpiece. It not followed the mainstream,which evolved of supernatural and action type, which usually lacking a new element. However, this anime not one of the stereotype, it consists of of new storyline and new elements, not just cliche and classic elements.The animation also is very refined, which can be seen through it arts ( especially the background, which looks so real), the storyline, the development and lastly the morale of the stories.

It start a slow, weird and a bit humorous ( i mean,a naked guy in the very first scene) and from there the storyline start to develop fast and it intriguing me. It was a good start, a moderate paced development and the air of mysterious keep me watching it until the end. Development is well-aligned, it start with many mysteries, then the mysteries start to solve a bit by bit without spoiled the entertainment and the storyline.

As conclusion, this anime is very interesting to watch even it not from the mainstream. It give a new elements of anime and also contains classic elements. It definitely one of the must seen anime. Especially, it contain such a pretty arts ( other anime like Mushi-shi) and refreshing elements. As a fan from the mainstream, I gave applause toward this anime cause it managed glued me to the screen no-stopping. Even you mainstream fan, an exception sometimes happened and this anime is an exception. Without doubt this anime deserved as winner of Tokyo Anime Award, Television Categories 2009.
