ONE-LINER: Not a bad anime if you can get over all the weirdness. Seriously, carbon credits?
STORY: Shangri-La began as a light novel by Eiichi Ikegami which was initially serialized in Kadokawa Shoten’s Newtype magazine. The story of a young woman fighting for her survival in a real “urban jungle.” Only 18 years old, Kuniko Hojo finds herself at the heart of the battle for humanity’s future when she discovers that the government which rules Atlas intends to continue marginalizing the less-privileged masses outside the tower – by force, if necessary.
