Voice actings crisp and full of intent, and the animation smooth and atmospheric, but it does feel pretty out of context. Without the rest of the story along with it, or maybe some flashback/introduction, it feels like the atmosphere doesn't build up as well as it could. Jumping right into the scenario is like glancing out the window and seeing someone walk by, or walking past people and catching a trail of conversation, you don't have time to really grow attached to the characters, or feel impacted iby what they're saying. And it seems there's more to the story than dialog. ;) Does get me curious about what's really going on though. Keep it going!
