This intro felt a bit slow at times, lingering for awhile on the main character as she engages in silent introspection. But it also had an unusually serene quality to it, which I think would have been lost if the pacing had been quicker. So my comment about the pacing is intended more as an observation than a criticism.

My favorite thing about the intro was the lovely theme song, which has a very nice melody and pleasant vocals. This is one of those songs that really added a lot to the intro, giving it a sense of emotional significance that also helped boost the Story score.

Speaking of story, theres a feeling of something profound to the characters introspective moments, enough to create some sense of story, even if you get no real idea what the show is about. But without more of a glimpse into whats going on inside the characters head, this was really as high as I could go with the Story score based on only a vague sense of depth.

Finally, the animation was very fluid and looked really good at times, with nice details such as the way the characters hair sways in the wind, the distorted reflection in the mirror star, and the falling flower petals. Theres a definite sense of artistic vision to the sequence. However, various parts of the intro were less challenging and contained only stills of characters, which held the Animation score back somewhat.

Despite my nitpicking, this was a good intro overall.
