'Orb' is an anime that feels like a mix of The Da Vinci Code’s thrilling mystery, Attack on Titan’s enthralling political tug of war, and Vinland Saga’s rich character writing

54% Informative

Orb: On the Movements of the Earth , animated by Madhouse , is a historical seinen drama set in Europe where the predominant thinking of society and Christianity at large believes in geocentrism.

Anyone who dares say otherwise is deemed a heretic by the Inquisition, put on probation after extra-judicial torture, and burned at the stake should their zealotry remain unchanged.

Orb is one of those anime where the action is both sparse and a violent exclamation point to the show’s intense verbal chess matches, double-crosses, and political subterfuge.

From start to finish, Orb is an anime that has the potential to stir one's soul as effortlessly as the sun pulls the planets into its orbit.
