i’m typing on mobile with text to speech to please bear with me 😭🙏🏽
OK, so from what I can tell, this might be a fairly niche anime because no matter what I or my friends look up, no one can find it.
I remember randomly watching this one day when I was most likely in elementary school or sixth grade. I’m a sophomore in college now which makes this about 8 to 10 years ago. i’m not sure if this anime came out around this time, but it was one of the first few things recommended whenever I scrolled on anime planet that i accessed through Xfinity on demand.
I barely remember anything but a few snippets of scenes but I’ll try my best to describe them with as much detail as I can
I remember it had a very slight sci-fi/futuristic feel, but that could’ve been my child brain imagining it as futuristic. I remember the main character being a girl with long hair. I believe it was light colored, like white or gray? I’m pretty sure she had the standard school uniform that tons of anime girls tend to have but it was more of a futuristic color scheme? maybe white with like blue lines going through it?
I remember that the main character had a crush on this guy. I remember thinking to my child self that he looked very feminine. He had short dark hair and a dark uniform like outfit and maybe a scarf.
The main scene I remember is the main character or some other girl character sitting in her dining room, and there is a camera in her house that she is aware of. I believe the camera was always there, but this scene was very specific with the fact that she was trying to, I guess, act normal so the people watching her through the camera don’t notice that she is aware that something is wrong? I know it isn’t making a lot of sense but this is all I can really remember.
The last scene I remember was some plot twist scene where it turns out that the guy that the main girl had a crush on turned out to be some secret skilled assassin. he had katanas and had to battle the villain of the story (who i think was a plot twist villain) who was in some giant robot with guns trying to attack the main characters
when it comes to the plot, I really can’t remember anything. I think it might have been about something with the government spying on people like how there was a camera in the main girl’s dining room and I believe she might have been the child of somebody who works for the government or just somebody important in general
The main thing I am absolutely 100% sure about is that the thumbnail wasn’t the main girl but actually the guy she had a crush on. it was a slightly purple dark background. his body was turned away from the camera but he was slightly turned to the side so you could see the side profile of his head. he was in some assassin like pose, holding the katana that he fought the robot in. if I see this poster, I will recognize it immediately.
I remember the title being the Japanese name and it was all one long word. I believe it started with an F but I could be wrong.
please take all these details with a grain of salt because I truly don’t trust my memory of some random show I watched almost 10 years ago, but I definitely do vividly remember the thumbnail.
when it comes to the robot battle I described, everybody I spoke to about this focused on that but I really don’t remember the show being about robots. that was just something that happened in the end
Please help me find this anime 😭🙏🏽 i’ve been thinking about it for years.
