The No. 6 manga series is an adaption of the novels under the same name. Each of manga volumes covers the plot of one light novel, there being nine novels and nine volumes of the manga each. Shion‘s assured promising future as an elite of the city of No.6 was taken from him when he helped a wounded fugitive called Nezumi.
6 is not labeled as BL, because even in softer BL, actions are laced with sexual tension and there is no such thing happening in No. 6. It is because of this habit to expect sexuality that Asano took it upon herself to do make a queer series that breaks the romantic-sexual/platonic dichotomy.
It felt incredibly sad, almost like nostalgia. As cheesy as this sounds, my heart clenches when I hear it. Background music was very subtle, but added wonderfully to the overall feel.
6 is a very worthwhile and well-developed story with much thought-provoking commentary to be had, many wonderfully-realized characters to be experienced, and a lot of high production-value to be seen and heard. Even though the ending is a bit confusing because of its rushed pacing, No. 6 is still a very good anime.

Twelve-year-old Shion. Shion grew up as an elite member of the No. 6 society. He lived with his mother in an upscale home in Chronos until the age of 12, when he was stripped from his title for helping Nezumi, a fugitive, escape.
BONES is notorious as the studio that doesn’t know how to storyboard, while NotanimA uses the timeslot aimed at middle aged women who are into that sort of shit. Anyways, the problem is not just the premise being a joke; there is also very little plot in it.
Yes, for me, it wasn't quite clear what exactly happened. That's probably my fault for watching anime at 6.15 am...#N#There was potential in some kick-ass action etc. In the last episodes, but it just didn't make something out of its potential.
To me, Nezumi and Shion's interactions were better than the overarching plot. Most of the characters were interesting because they possessed some original traits. Overall an enjoyable watch for anyone who likes a sad plot, the utopia theme, interesting characters, even though the plot left unanswered questions.
Many years ago, after the end of a bloody world war, mankind took shelter in six city-states that were peaceful and perfect... at least on the surface. However, Shion—an elite resident of the city-state No. 6—gained a new perspective on the world he lives in, thanks to a chance encounter with a mysterious boy, Nezumi.
No. 6 condenses but largely remains faithful to the the original nine-part light novel series. Changes were made to tone down the amount of violence in the series, in addition to creating an alternate ending.
