    The best of it's kind
    Without spoiling any major plot details, I can say that all character and relationship development appears natural and un-forced. Despite still somewhat falling short of the novel in some areas, the anime more than makes up for it with brilliant music and hidden symbolism in the artwork. Unlike so many of it's peers, No. 6 requires no "buying in" to the story, yet still manages to create a fantasic world with many interesting facets.

    Any critism I might have concerns only anime-specific design choices in the last episode that don't holistically take away from the story at all.

    I would invite anyone to watch the first episode, then pick up the novel (or any of the free translations of the novel available online) and read away.
