I really enjoyed this movie! I thought they did really well with the CG. The story was interesting could have been a little better, also felt a little rushed. But overall I'll give it a 8/10. I'll for sure buy it when it is released on Blu Ray

I was just searching for sonething that seemed interesting to watch and found, Human Lost. There are several threads in this movie, with good charactors, that are well flushed out. It combines a phycologocal thriller that makes you think, blood and gore, a love story that is very unique, and psyfi, along with monsters, and makes it all come together beautifully, but you must pay attention to this outstanding anime to understand every thing in it. It grabbed my attention from the very start and held it to the very end. I watched it first in sub, and then in dub. Both versions are excellent, with very good voice acting. The animatoin in this movie is beautifully done.

‘Human Lost' seems like it's trying to combine elements of ‘GITS' and ‘Tokyo Ghoul', but it comes nowhere near to reaching the heights of either of those IP's. First things first: the world-building is interesting and has some cool sci-fi ideas, but right from the get-go, it feels like you've missed out on a whole required backstory as you're overwhelmed with all sorts of details, most of which only end up getting in the way. It tries to squash in a lot of stuff into a run time just shy of 2 hrs and you're gonna have to pay attention if you want to piece together exactly what's happening. Nevertheless, even if it's a bit confusing, the start still seems promising and has the opportunity to tell a story about what it means to be human, but as the film progresses, it becomes clear that it isn't going in that direction. Instead, we get surface-level drama (there are a few touching moments, sure, but both the story and characters need more depth) and a barrage of increasingly typical anime action sequences. I like those as much as the next guy, but if that's all there is, it's a problem. Finally, I have to mention the visuals: 3D CGI. I don't like it and this could have been, at the very least, visually spectacular had they gone the traditional route, but okay, maybe they didn't have the budget or time. Fair enough. In short, there are some really enjoyable moments and it has some great ideas, but doesn't know how to make the best of them and winds up feeling stuck between trying to be a deep meditation on humanity and a straight-up action flick, failing to do justice to either. I can't help but feel that this would have worked so much better – perhaps even been something great – as a series where the world and characters could have been properly explored and the animation could be done right. But above all other problems is the lack of humanity, so I guess the title is surprisingly apt.

It's animation quality is aesthetically pleasing and the action scenes are epic. The reason I'm only giving it 3.5 stars is that the plot itself is just so convoluted that I still don't exactly understand it's narrative. I believe that the story is somewhat an allegory for societal hierarchies but, then again, I could be completely incorrect and the artistic minds behind this work sought to make no political or societal statements at all and that the audience is simply supposed to take the story at face value. Had the story been less cryptic and more explanatory, deciphering it's meaning may not have been such a conundrum. Nevertheless, it is most certainly an enticing and thought-provoking film; I am grateful to the artists that created it.
