About 11eyes

Here is what 11eyes is about, retold in plain terms: an action, supernatural and super power anime by Doga Kobo (2009). At its core: When the Sky turns Red, the Moon turns Black, and monsters begin roaming the streets, Satsuki Kakeru is at a loss for what to do. Along with his best friend Yuka, they try to decipher why they have been sent to this strange world, which is seemingly empty aside from themselves.

Another thread: However, when the "Red Night" ends, Kakeru and Yuka believed it was all a dream, until it happens again and they are left in a dangerous situation. They meet four others in the same predicament: Kusakabe Misuzu, an expert swordswoman, Tachibana Kukuri, a strange mute girl who looks uncannily like Kakeru's deceased sister, Hirohara Yukiko. As the six of them band together to survive and discover what this mysterious world is, things take a turn for the worse as six shadows appear before them...

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Think of it as a pick for viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.

Production & Appeal

Doga Kobo is the studio behind 11eyes, and its direction shapes everything from character design to motion. Within the action category, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.2/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Released in 2009, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
