OK, thanks for making sense of it all :)
I am also looking for DVD's of the series when it's released!
And the eventual manga, as well.

6/10.
Fractale's plot is nothing basic. It was a very good idea but it was definitely not well executed. You have to think your head off to even remotely understand what's happening, but even then there are still just so many plotholes.
This anime wants you to take it seriously, and I did. Now I have all these unanswered questions. I can list way more but I can't be bothered because there'll be 10x as much (not a hyperbole). Yes, you can formulate theories but there's absolutely nothing in the show that definitively answer these questions. In other words, it's one of those anime that pretend it's real deep, philosophical and all, but ends up not knowing what to do. In the hands of a better director and give it some more episodes, its ideas can easily make it an 8/10.
What does this sound like? Oh, that's right. Angel Beats. I gave that a 6/10 too, didn't I? For the exact same reasons. I think it's the score this anime deserves for trying to be a serious anime with tons of plotholes.

I was thinking along the same lines as you. Yes the anime was pretty good, but too much of it was left unexplained. Too much of it was implied, and that the viewer has connect the dots.
