Loveless is a twelve-episode shounen-ai anime that involves drama,
fantasy, and a bit of romance. The anime got into the story so fast
without a lot of details, which left me wondering what kind of
world the characters live in that fighters were necessary. The
children have cat-like ears and a tail, and when they grow older,
they ears and tail fall off. I am sure the manga was probably
better, but the ending was great. I liked how all of the episode
names had -less at the end: loveless, endless, etc.
Aoyagi Ritsuka is a twelve-year old boy that is left with his crazy
mother when his brother, Seimei, dies. When Ritsuka starts
attending a new school, he meets Agatsuma Soubi, who says that he
knew Seimei.
Soubi and Seimei used to be a fighting pair, where Soubi was the
fighter and Seimei was the sacrifice. When Seimei died, Soubi
became Ritsuka's. When Ritsuka discovers that Seimei was killed by
an organization called the Seven Moons, he decides to investigate
his brother's death.
