This Anime is apart from a good Story more than just a normal Anime. The Anime is telling how the gap between the poor and rich people getting wider and wider and what this imply. In short to say: a nice and really entertaining Anime with a serious message, watch it.

I watched this one because I found it in categories as Bishounen, Dystopia, Josei, Novel, Sci-Fi, Thriller anime. First episode was promising but I was so wrong thinking this would be a great dystopia sc fi story. The show have bad writing and characterization. I have nothing against Shounen ai scenes, but it was stupidly presented. Characters, their irritating actions and plot was so predictable. Dialogue between Shion and Nezumi was full of pathetic outbursts. Music, especially opening theme have a very irritating melody. There was nothing that ( read more)

So I doubt anyone's still confused, but the anime in its whole can be found here: http://anime-access.com/anime/N/No._6_%28TV%29 .
Review!!
Story: First to note would be its depth. Despite the shortness, it touches upon a bunch of themes; and it's not only the typical "importance of friendship" thing, but this anime also e.g. provides a look into life, society, and what happens if you question or don't question it. That's only a glimpse, but this review would get twice as long if I were to list all its themes (barely exaggerating!).

Despite the shortness, it touches upon a bunch of themes; and it's not only the typical "importance of friendship" thing, but this anime also e.g. provides a look into life, society, and what happens if you question or don't question it. That's only a glimpse, but this review would get twice as long if I were to list all its themes (barely exaggerating!).
Besides that, the plot line is well thought-out, starting off with a lot of suspense (like any mystery), providing a few plot twists and surprises throughout as "puzzle pieces" are gathered that in the end solve the whole mystery, and ending without plot holes or too many questions left open. For a series of eleven eps, "No. 6" is fast-paced, but not rushed, and draws the watcher in well with a mixture of suspense and relatable emotion. The background is a very serious setup though - not depressing, but nothing to expect comedy of. This series is full of words of distrust and sarcasm (granted, the latter which I love it for ^^°). It's mostly dystopia see sci-fi with postapocalyptic feel to it, mystery, suspense, friendship, some action although it doesn't rely heavily on fights, and a sense of slice of life.
Characters: Well thought-out, quite unique, and realistic with great dynamics and development given the shortness of the whole series. Despite the fact that most of the characters are full of distrust for each other as everyone merely struggles for their own survival, sympathising with them is easy, and some characters do open up throughout the story. Don't let the protagonist drive you away; he seems like a typical wimp at first, but believe me, he does change... pretty quickly so.
Dialogue: Fluid and realistic, although it gives off a certain BL impression in some scenes. If you're tolerant towards that or think you can get over it, though, the dialogue is generally easy to appreciate. The seiyuus do a brilliant job, capturing the charas' personalities and emotions very well.
Animation: Absolute top-notch, with beautiful character and scenery design (well... as far as "beautiful" is appropriate for that kind of environment). Sharp and detailed artwork with vivid colours; fluid action scenes; and the artist isn't afraid to show blood and destruction, which I personally highly appreciate. Excellently done and quite touching music as well.
Entertainment: Not much comedy, but the mystery/suspense factor is sure to leave the viewer on edge. I might have to issue a 'warning': there is a touch of boys' love. This is definitely no romance anime, seeing as it's rather subtle and can easily be interpreted as deep friendship, but if you can't stand content of that matter at all, you might not be comfortable with the atmosphere or dialogue in some scenes. Still, anyone who likes a well-plotted and complex dystopia/post-apocalyptic mystery-friendship anime, as long as you don't mind a tiny touch of boys' love, look no further.

I thought it has a good plot and story just that it was really rushed and there could have been a few more episodes so they could get into more detail. I didn't like the fact how they changed the ending.

The plot and story of this anime is progressing really interesting.. But there is some things that I don't like about this anime.. There are some mystery that keep unsolved until the end that is really annoying... And ALSO this anime is definitely Boys LOVE!? So I feel that by giving this anime a high score will hurt my pride as a man.... =="
boys kissing each other.. It's kinda disgusting.. It make me wanna vomit..

Overall,this story is excellent and I'm sure you will like the ending song[Rokutousei no yoru-Aimer] because it will definitely touch your heart.I also like the part when Nezumi is trying to help Shion to escape from the goverment.It was so awesome!Lastly,Nezumi willing to do anything for Shion and Shion really care about Nezumi.This shows that,although No.6 is very impossible to destroy but with the determination and the power of friendship anything is possible.
