'''''Innocent Venus''''' is an anime.
It's 2010 AD. Nature has [[After the End|destroyed a good portion of civilization as we know it]]. To maintain order, society is segregated into the rich Logos and the miserably poor Levinas, and the law is enforced by the militaristic upper class. The Logos enjoy easy life in relatively nice areas, while the impoverished masses of the Levinas struggle to survive in [[Crapsack World|the slums, aka everywhere else.]]
Line 10 ⟶ 13:
They spend a while on the run, meeting up with various rebel factions including the [[Large Ham|self-styled "pirate captain"]] Toraji, who is actually {{spoiler|the defected vice-commander of Phantom}}; the story continues thus until {{spoiler|Jin is revealed to be a [[Big Bad Friend|backstabbing fiend]] who wants to use Sana just as much as Phantom do}}. Meanwhile Toraji decides to lead the rebellion. The director of Phantom is also working on some sort of [[Weapon of Mass Destruction]] involving the mechas and their power source. This is where Sana finally learns her origin and her significance to the project.

* [[Hidden Heart of Gold]]: Jo
* [[Hoist
* [[Horrible Judge of Character]]: {{spoiler|Jin managed to fool most people, including Jo, who seems to have been his friend for years. Though since he fools most the audience too (but for the obscure [[Spoiler Opening]] there would be no clue at all), Jo and Sana can probably be excused for thinking he was a nice guy.}}

Line 55 ⟶ 57:
* [[State Sec]]: Phantom

* [[Tarot Motifs]]: Qing Ling carries around a tarot deck, often used to foreshadow the episode's events {{spoiler|Death, The Moon, and The World}}. He also uses the cards themselves to [[Death Dealer|kill people]].
* [[Twelve-Episode Anime]]: Sadly, due to bad pacing during the middle seems painfully slow, but later episodes felt too rushed.

* [[Was It All a Lie?]] - Shades of this.
