We watched this last night together with my 9 and 10 year old daughters. What can I say?
We were collectively bored from the beginning to the end. Oh, and annoyed by the constant vocal musical background, which very often covered the characters' voices and we had to struggle to understand what they were saying.
As for the story itself... really difficult to understand what was going on, with the constant jumps from present to past and back to present again.
In the end we were left with a taste of "what was this all about???" and felt we thoroughly wasted an hour and a half of our lives.
I only gave it a 7 due to the nice imagery (but even that doesn't compare with other better Japanese cartoons).
