The studio ran out of money before they could finish. Great until the end.

This show deserved better, it starts great, builds up with all chess pieces moving up for showdown and... well... ends? But that was no ending, it's more of a stop, leaving you wondering what happened. Animation is ok but sometimes quality drops noticeably, story is interesting but gets complicated real fast without explaining much because it ends too soon. If you're not into continuing to manga then don't bother as it will leave you hanging.

In Ergastulum, crime is almost part of the daily routine. Corruption, theft and prostitution plague the city while the police can only look on helplessly. In this seedy town, deaf Nic and part-time gigolo Worick work as 'garbage men' and 'handy men', taking care of the town's trash and doing the dirty behind-the-scenes work that everyone else is too good to do . The anime manages to present interesting characters in a good setting with nice animations. The anime really grabbed me and I devoured it in one piece. Unfortunately, the anime will not be continued, which I personally think is a pity, because I think you can make a lot out of it.

i am very frustrated because of the ending and how bad it needs a season two but its cancelled since the studio went bankrupt. if you can deal with that, then you have to watch this anime! it has a great storyline, it has great characters, it's a very open-minded story about social issues and the natural difference in the people and it has diverse character designs. if you enjoy action shows with a lot of complicated backstory (like attack on titan or tokyo ghoul) then this is the perfect choice! again, the only bad thing about it is that there is no season two but that doesnt mean the first 12 episodes are not worth watching.
