Art
the drawing is not that great but its fine... how the animators drew Chise was splendid! Chise is cute, and you can definitely say she is feminine... kind of clumsy... Shuji's eyes were small and he wasn't drawn that good but he does look like a guy! the least the animators could do is to make the person look like his gender so its okay! the weapon form of Chise is greatly done because Chise's arm really looked like a weapon and it looks like a strong type of metal... the buildings kind of look old... as if they were build since 80's or even 70's i think... and the military uniforms look real... you can say they were really based from the original military uniforms...

Sound
the OST is great! the ending song, Sayonara is performed well! there are many
versions of the songs, and the insert song, i think it's called, The Last Love
Song in the World, is great! the opening song of the anime is not that good but
it's great also... i cannot say about the singers but the songs and OST are a
must have.... most of this OST are instrumentals and accompaniments... there are
also karaoke of the songs so you'll be able to sing if you want! the meaning of
the songs are great! he! he! though sad... my favorite song in this OST is the
ending song... there's a part there, in english, farewell to you my beloved... i
still could not forget about you... just hearing the word goodbye fills my heart
with tears...
great huh! but sad!

I've watched this anime and I think its quite good or atleast above average defently worth to watch if your into this kind of anime.
I heard that the anime does no justice to the manga. I will have to read and find out, but i like your review.
