Jyu-Oh-Sei

Jyu-Oh-Sei is an 11 episode long anime series that takes place in the future 150 light years away from earth.  Thor and his brother Rai return home one day to find there parents have been  murdered and then are kidnapped by the government and sent to a planet called Chimera, a planet were criminals are sentenced to live, and not to mention Chimera itself is anything but safe.
Jyu-Oh-Sei is an anime that is very deceiving, the first episode only sets the stage but not the tone for the rest of the series.  An anime based purely off of survival, and the will/reason to live.  The action that takes place in this series is heart stopping, you just never know how the fights will turn out.  There is a slight love story happening in the series however it really doesn't hit full realization until the later episodes.  The twists that take place in this series also add to the drama that only makes this series more lovable to the viewer.  In short this anime will hook the viewer and not let go until the series is over.  

For fun if your interested look for the heavy referencing to Nordic Mythology in this anime, hint hint!

Good:
-Great action
-Amazing story line
-Characters that you just can't get enough of
-An ending that is sad yet at the same time an acceptable ending for the viewer
-One twist after another, never gets boring and can be unpredictable

Bad:
-Too short of a series!!!!!

Scully Rating: 9.8 out of 10
