X - The anime

Plot (From Wikipedia):
The events take place in 1999. The end of the world is fast approaching as superhuman individuals gather and take sides in the city of Tokyo, the battle site of Armageddon. The key player in this day of reckoning is Kamui Shiro, a young man who returns home to Tokyo after a six-year absence to protect those dearest to him, Kotori and Fuma Monou, and fulfill his mother's dying wish.

The story is Kamui's heroic journey, where the narrative places an emphasis on his choices and how they affect the world around him as he attempts to reconcile his dual destinies.

My Thoughts:
This was pretty good. I just did not enjoy the whole tragic thing since it was overly dramatic but definitely worth watching if you have run out of things to watch. Honestly I wish there was more action on this than the drama. The animation may look a little dated since this anime was really in 1999 but considering that it was pretty good. If you feel like a good drama with some action, then this is definitely a good watch. 3 out of 5.
