Darker than Black: Gemini of the Meteor puts me in a bit of an odd position as a reviewer. The show pulls no punches; immersing the viewer in a magnificently constructed universe that exists with little to no explanation, development or back story offered to make sense of it. The world exists as it does. These are the characters that inhabit it. This is what they can do. Accept it or move on. Such self-confidence in a work is appealing in many ways, and the unexplained questions that arise early in the series and are taken as a matter-of-course for the characters tend to latch on to the viewer and pull them along with the hope that the answers will soon be forthcoming.

Unfortunately, and something that I only found out after six episodes in, was that Darker than Black: Gemini of the Meteor is actually the second season of a previous series that concluded its first season run back in 2007, which therefore meant that some of those interesting questions I had about the show that kept me watching in the hopes of finding an explanation were in fact already dealt with before this season even started.

So…yeaaaaaah.
