GONZO totally rearranged the play so if you think of the original play, you would be very confused. Especially the tragic setting is much more strengthened in this anime than the original did.
GONZO is being criticized that they are weak in scenario comparing to their wonderful technology(especially in 3D effects). However, in case of an anime which original work exists, GONZO has shown quite good quailty of scenario. If you think of 'Full Metal Panic the 1st Season' which was based on the novel by Shouji Gatou or 'Gankutsuou' which was based on the novel(Count Of Monte Cristo) by Alexsandre Dumas, you would agree to this statement.
Hong's Personal Statement : GONZO is also being criticized for its 'wonderful beginning but dull finish' problem. However, the general assessment on this anime is 'wonderful beginning and finish, but dull middle part'. But still people gives quite favorable reception to this anime. The singer of OP of this anime is LENA Park, or Junghyun Park, one of the best Korean singers.
