The story
Neku awakens in the middle of Shibuya's bustling Scramble Crossing with no memory of how he got there. Little does he know, he's been transported to an alternate plane of existence known as the Underground (UG). Now an unwilling participant in the mysterious "Reapers' Game," Neku must partner up with a girl named Shiki in order to survive. Together, they complete missions and defeat monsters known as "Noise" as they gradually uncover the true nature of this twisted Game. "There's only one way to stay alive in Shibuya: trust your partner." Will they survive the Reapers' Game?

A decent adaptation of the video game, but for anime-only watchers, this is probably just a meh anime
The World That Could Have Been
A decent enough adaptation that doesn't measure up to Square Enix's cult classic video game.
It doesn't give itself enough time to maximize its potential, its characters, or universe.
