(L) Mnemosyne - Mnemosyne no Musume-tachi

[Chase]

I would buy but i can't have this anime laying around the house any where when family members come over. They might watch it. They would be like "WTF" if they saw it and think im weird.......oh wait

That's pretty much what this show is known for around the internet.

[signorRossi]

Get real PRon, not this stuff.

The guro parts kind of turned me off from watching more of the series. Epic action and Yuri madness aside.

[Icehawk]

Glad to see this got picked up. I was actually suprised it didnt get licenced sooner. I always figured Manga Entertainment would have gotten it quickly because it seemed to be right up their alley when you look at the other titles they have usually picked up. But Funi getting it is fine and they will probably do a better job with it anyway since they have better resources.

I always wondered why Mnemosyne is not considered hentai ... futanari, yuri, guro, rape ... name it. It's actually quite hardcore.

None-the-less, I really liked it, characters were rather interesting in a unique way and the storytelling was quite good.

[darkchibi07]

To be consider hentai, Mnemosyne should have shown exposed vaginas, and probably

Spoiler for spoiler near the end of the climax episode:

...Apos' dick.

[-Sho-]

It was a hentai +16 years XD

[zrdb]

Nope-it isn't hentai-just hard core ecchi.

Spoiler for Ep 6:

Heck... this anime is quite messed up.
It started quite good, then drop like stones because those in the studio are morons, seriously.

Things actually getting worse since Ep 4(turning-point i guess), when all those sex and gore no longer used to promote the storyline, but the storyline altered itself try to meet up with the R standard.

1st, what the heck with lose memories because your bodies are chopped up? As if Rin hasn't experienced something like that in her 1000 year life (got hit by a block of C4, e.g). The scene when she united with her lover is a waste of words. Lame

Then Mimi becames a sex device (probably due to her popular) and almost every moment she has no clothes on didn't have anything to do with the plot.

What's a disappoint turn this anime made. And i thought this is another gem i was missing

Finished the series,liked the first episode the best.The last episode and the ending was....dissapointing to say the least.Also hated how the main characters backgroun isn't explored as much as I hoped especially Rin/Mimi.I like the parts where the series tries to explore it's society more too.

I really like Rin/Mimi's office scenes,they have a sentimental feel to it.I like Kouki Maeno as well and I really liked the fact that the series gave him a normal series life.

But I really love the series's timeskips the most,to actually experience episodic timeskips was a pleasant experience too,to see how the technology and enviroument change but the office and Rin/Mimi stay the same gave me a an experience that I've yet to feel before,at least in anime anyways and sometimes make me things about the passage of time in my life as well[Some things change,some things don't].

I also especially like the Maeno bloodline, and his later descendants,I disliked Teruki but like his older version more matured version.To see how somebody's so rebellious turned so responsible was nice to see as well maybe mimicking some people in real life.I missed Kouki's wife for some reason,I guess she just died normally.Kouki Maeno's death was pretty sad,Tamo-chan's was as well and he wasn't even the careful panoia type that he was too when he died.

Kinda disliked how the Apos plot went,I really wished it turned out more differently than it did.

But I guess Rin is my favourite aspect of the series[Especially her vodca scenes with Mimi over time].I just like her charatcer and mannerisms in the series and how she interacts with people,it was nice to see her without her memories too,contrasting with her confident self.

I kinda disliked how the series tried and explored the supernatural aspects of it,I think it did poorly so in the last episodesin regard of this,to see Rin revive is awesome though since it explored the immortality theme further and it's not as straightforward as it seems. [Now I may have an idea on on what would happen to C.C. if certain things may have happened to her].

The series was good when it was still within the detective agency parts,Man I even love that building itself.Some of the Immortality reminds me of Lost Odyssey as well.

I loved the music too,the ED is fun to hear to but I loved most of the background music from this series.Some radiates normalcy,some radiats sprituality/sentimentality while some of them were nice action themes.Even having trouble getting some of them out of my head [The one where spores always appear]

And the sexual and violence themes were well done I guess,too much nudity in the last episode though,for a non-hentai show.

Overall,a good series with a special place in my heart for the enviroument it potrays,it's characters[not including the villain], and it's timeskips.Wish the show focused more on it's detective agency aspects,the cyber-ish enviroument of the future is nice especially when contrasted with the past but I think the series went a bit too far on it.But my biggest dissapointment was lack of elaboration of the main characters not from a personality standpoint,but from a "what they've done" over the years standpoint,they are some here and there but I wish they'd put more of it.I guess I'm influenced by Lost Odyssey in this part,which wrote text for some of the normal things the immortal characters go through over the time.[Not comparing here,but I'd guess you could say my expectation of it was influenced a bit]

And personally,the supernatural-aspect of the stroyline[Apos's plots,Yggdrasil etc] did not go through too from my expectations[I loved the women's immortality though] but I had a great time watching this series and enjoyed it quite a bit,I will certainly miss it a bit too.But ultimately it really could have been much much more than it did,shame such potential was wasted. 8/10

So a banner AD for this anime and decided to check it out. Very werid. Overall, I liked it though.

It was almost like the Maeno bloodline were main characters and in the end they turned out to be very important. Not much I can say that hasn't been said already. I enjoyed this show though, a very WTF anime, up there with Elfen Lied.

8/10 is probably a good rating for this show.

Did they ever come out with a soundtrack?

bit shame that i don't know how to do oversea order it for whole set.

[tyciol]

I was told this was a rather ecchi pseudo-hentai.

[Hagoshod]

Did I...

Did I just watch something that heavily implied a dude used his sword to impale an immortal girl and pin her to the ground, and then raped her doggy style while she was still impaled?


hahaha this was based on a screenplay by Marquis de Sade, wasn't it?

[YuriEcchiGirl]

I have this series on DVD already & can't wait to get around to watching it soon
