Kara no Kyoukai (The Garden of Sinners, 2007) is a series of 7 action/drama movies which impressed me from the first minutes. The anime was so intriguing and well interpreted that I could not avoid watching all movies in a row. Seven different directors succeed in bringing up a consistent tone to the series. The atmosphere is full of suspense and mystery, and artwork is fantastic. Each drop of rain, expression, shadow and glance seem to contribute to storytelling. Music does not stay behind, thanks to the brilliant work of Kajiura Yuki (the best work among those I've listened in 2009). The action scenes are breathtaking, and characters are enigmatic and profound. The story itself is full of philosophy, symbolism and puzzles, demanding a lot from the audience.
