This anime is really good, though you will spend the entirety of season 1 asking yourself what the hell is going on, or how any of this makes any sense whatsoever. At the end of season 1 you see a glimmer of explanation, and in season 2 everything comes together.

Yep, this anime is both fucked up and good. There is a famous scene in this anime that appears in a ton of videos / internets.
