About this series
A dream of falling from the sky... and then birth. Racka is born from a large cocoon into the Old Home, greeted by a group of females with small wings on their backs and shining halos above their heads. Soon Racka¡¯s own wings grow, a halo is placed on her head and she is told that she must work in the nearby town of Brie. She soon realizes that the town and the entire world they live in are confined behind the Wall, a tall, impenetrable wall that none except the mysterious Toga is allowed to exit.

Haibane Renmei (English Dubbed) - DVD Box Set

Overall : A little slow to begin with, but give it time. The story will grow on you and you'll be completely into it before you know it. Good looking animation and voice acting make this a sad yet uplifting gem.
