Nagi no Asukara [P.A. Works]
Clannad_92:
i like this kind of show, slow-paced, feels like watching 2 episode-worth in one episode...we'll see about the rest episode...
akiaaa:
I have a feeling that Kaname might be the one who will solve and make peace of their problems?
He seems quiet and all but I think he's the most knowledgeable one among all of them. :)
krbee:
I am liking the drama, the slow pace, and Manaka is just too cute.
jaybug:
I am trying to decide if this is a show about racism, or about making peace with former enemies who were at war shortly before the story, or both. Racism of the variety that is not so outwardly easy to distinguish, especially if one is not from the cultures involved. I am thinking of the Barukumin of Japan as the people of whom this show is identifying with.

I think racism is definitely prevalent, though I do think it's more limited to the sea people hating on the land people than vice versa. It seems to have a reason though: a girl from the sea that mates with a man from the surface will produce offspring that cannot breathe underwater, so if all girls did this, the underwater city would quickly run out of inhabitants, which is obviously bad.
