I just finished watching a series that I was behind and am about to pick up a new one. Is this one any good? I read the plot, but what kind of show is this? Is this strictly a romance or is there a fantasy theme to it? I have read a few reviews and I heard this show was mediocre at best. Is it worth watching?

Actually I didn’t think Amnesia was so bad.

I’m a guy, and I liked watching Amnesia.(PS I never played the game before).

A few good things about Amnesia:
1)It knows how to set up atmosphere. Nothing much actually happens in a episode, but the music, angle shots grab your attention and make you want to continue watching the next episode. It knows how to create tenseness in certain scenes.

2) The character designs. As an artist, I immensely enjoyed the details and designs of each character’s clothing. Granted they’re funkier than normal, but I’ve actually seen clothing designs like Heroine’s, Sawa, Mine and Toma in Japanese fashion magazines. I’ve even seen Asian girls with dyed hair similar to Heroine’s(light brown with the pink highlights).

Heres a nice Heroine cosplay. Looks like a fashion model doesnt she?

I also loved the opening and ending songs as well for the series. The whole pop-rock thing going on was wicked good.

PS. In fairness I've never really liked otome series. Hiiro no Kakera was too draggy for me, and I could never get into Hakuoki. Dunno why I enjoyed Amnesia more than most.

Are my opinions valid, in all fairness?

I just finished both seasons of Hiiro no Kakera. The fantasy action was what drew me into it. When I initially looked up Amnesia, I read it was just a Romance anime with no action sequences in it. I guess that's why I'm hesitant on watching it.

The show's strength is in suspense, with a major focus on the ongoing Mystery surrounding the Heroine's memories. It is slow in some parts, so i would recommend a high level of observance and patience in order to fully appreciate the show's mysteries.

I definitely guarantee the OP and ED songs used are amazing.

Hope this helps you decide! Enjoy the music!

Do yourselves a favor: watch the anime and if it doesn't satisfy you read the game routes summary from a blog, because if you do it the other way around you'll probably regret it... like me DxU
