One of the finest animated series in ages, and one which plays with the conventions of animation in very self-referential ways which further the story and add insight. It may not all be very clear the first time you watch through, but after some thought and upon a second viewing, it is a bit easier to follow. Regardless of the psychological spider webs involved, and some episodes which do not at first seem related to the central story, it does all fit together in one incredible package.
If you have seen any of Satoshi Kon's previous work, you will have some idea of what awaits, and some of the themes explored are similar to past work ("Perfect Blue", in particular), but the presentation is so impressive those similarities will not be distracting. Perhaps not for the first time viewer of anime, but for those who like good, psychological drama well told, this is a masterpiece.
Brilliantly written and animated.
