Narcissu

Of all the anime that i have , all of them have been introduced to me by Alex or Shawn . Today , however , i have managed to find an anime by myself that clearly catches my attention .The title of the anime is Narcissu , taking its name from the narcissus flower . Good news for you is that it isn't some harem anime that i have taken a liking of . Bad news for you is .................

ITS PRACTICALLY FILLED WITH MELANCHOLY THAT IT MADE ME DEPRESSED FOR QUITE A WHILE !!!

Sue me .. lol ..

The story is about a boy and a girl , aged 20 and 22 respectively , who are terminally ill and are going to die . They are warded in a 7F room where it is a room for patients with no hope of surviving . The girl is pictured as a quiet girl and has a vast knowledge on cars and navigation . The boy manages to escape from the room with the girl , Setsumi and go on a journey to Awaji Island . They pass through many hardships and finally at the island , Setsumi commits suicide by drowning herself .

A very touching story that centres around the sense of giving up hope on living and the hardships of a sick person .

Poignant ..
And what's even better .. the soundtrack has amazing instrumentals , piano arrangements and a good vocal song .

To those interested , you can just go to the Narcissu official English webstite and download the visual novel . It only comes as a visual novel . No anime was made . Here are some pictures ..
