Well, Sven isn't actually the main character, so it would be Train would learn the ultimate attack to defeat the final boss at the end. And, not to ruin it, but it will revert to normal SJ standards about halfway through.

Just finished watching this; I thought it was ace! Yet another anime to add to the list that I've thoroughly enjoyed, in fact, I've now watched about ten and absolutely loved eight of them!
The storyline seemed great, it progressed at a great pace, and characters were introduced in a way that gave you enough time to warm to them (and trust me, a lot of the characters are very likeable!) but also at a fast enough pace to keep it interesting; just like the storyline. The emotions of the characters were interesting too; the relationship between Eve and Sven in particular was fantastic, especially the opening scenes where they first met, and I also liked the way that Saya managed to completely transform Train, and then the way he then battled with his former self to stay as the good person he'd become etc.
It wasn't all good though, near the end the pacing seemed a little off, it was great to see a (slightly predictable) change of heart from a certain person, but there seemed to be a lot that went on in the final episode that could of been covered in a little more detail, in fact, the whole last three episodes were kinda sucky, but only because I was pretty wierded out by the whole Eden thing (the entity, not the imaginary world!).
On the whole though it had a brilliant mix of action, humour and charm, with one or two soppy bits thrown in for good measure, the animation and sound were great too (especially loved the opening theme). Great stuff!
