Anime Review: Planetarian: The Dream of Small Star ( Summer 2016)

Planetarian is an 18 minutes 5 episode anime which is set in the near future after humanity as become nearly extinct. Is set in a catacomb city basically. A man enters a planetarian escaping some robots. He actives the planetarium and a girl comes into light. A girl no, a robot-girl. This girl robot is totally oblivious to what is happening out there since her database are not update for about 30 years. She basically treats him as a costumer and shows him some videos and stories. In the beginning the man don't treat her well but as the time progresses he helps her.

What to expect from it? Well not much. It's beautiful and in the end you will get some water in your eyes but I bet that one day later you will forget it. It's truly sad story but unfortunately due to the length of it you will not feel so connect to it that after a day or two you no longer remember.

Story 5/10
Art 6/10
Sound 6/10
Character 4/10
Enjoyment 5/10
Overall 5/10. Not the worst anime but also not the most interesting. Nevertheless under a hour mark so if you have the time watch it.
