In the beginning, an "orb" is cast unto Earth. "It" can do two things: change into the form of the thing that stimulates "it"; and come back to life after death. "It" morphs from orb to rock, then to wolf, and finally to boy, but roams about like a newborn who knows nothing. As a boy, "it" becomes Fushi.
Through encounters with human kindness, Fushi not only gains survival skills but grows as a "person". But his journey is darkened by the inexplicable and destructive enemy Nokker and cruel partings with the people he loves.

Simultaneously one of the most heartbreaking anime I have ever seen and also one of the most sluggish and baffling.

I think that I speak for a lot of people when I say that the day that the first episode of _To Your Eternity_ released, the emotions that it managed to draw out in most of us was very unexpected. In the realm of repetitive seas…

As the title says, To Your Eternity is a great journey about how to find humanity and real emotions despite the fact of being immortal and so inhuman.

A great concept and highly emotional moments, weakened by some low points
I will preface this review by saying that episode 1 was a masterpiece, easily 100/100 and one of the best episodes of any anime I’ve ever seen. It perfectly introduced the world, the themes and the concept. This paired with a brilliant OST and a heart-breaking story made it basically the perfect epi…
Inconsistent but powerful on a few occasions, it is a good tale about an immortal being learning to be a human
"Fumetsu no Anata e" is a drama series with fantasy elements, following the tale of an immortal being and their process of learning to be human. The series heavily relies on "arcs" where the main character goes meeting a new set of characters to live new experiences with just a few remaining as recu…
Unforgettable story driven by emotion, humanity, and the idea of mortality.
Let’s start off with a quick disclaimer and reminder. Shounen anime does not need constant fighting to be good or not boring. In my opinion. Now into the review.
Plot: Personally I view the plot of To Your Eternity as something unique and refreshing from what we usually see in anime and manga curre…
To Your Eternity is a beautiful, epic adventure about death that I recommend to everyone.

While Fumetsu does peak at its first episode, its main character and its heartwarming tone and themes are enjoyable.
To Your Eternity ‘s themes and concepts are something very thought-provoking and poignant. I like that, but there are problems. I will admit that this anime made me shed tears, but about 1/8th of those tears were me being emotional and the rest came from me yawning so much. The first episode started…
Nothing lasts forever, not life nor To Your Eternity's writing quality.
_Review originally posted August 30, 2021_
If you’ve ever experienced the death of a loved one, you know the feeling that To Your Eternity seeks to evoke in its audience. Several times I found myself sobbing, and it gave me an outlet to release the pent-up sadness I’ve held from the deaths of peopl…
The tale of how the most simple living thing evolved into a completed intelligent human being. __Fumetsu No Anata e__ tells us a different point of view, the most tragic one. A simple rock thrown into the world through "divine retribution" will experience the evolution of Earth. It can take the form…
A repetitive emotional rollercoaster that focuses on saddening moments

Primeiro episódio excelente, mas o resto não manteve a mesma qualidade.
