Geisters: Fractions of the Earth, broadcasted in 2001 by TV Osaka, is a captivating Japanese sci-fi anime that combines action, adventure, and complex narratives into a compelling package. This anime series challenges viewers to ponder various existential and eco-social dilemmas while keeping them entertained with intense action scenes and intricate character relationships.

Set on a futuristic post-apocalyptic Earth, the series portrays the struggles of humanity against a mysterious force known as Geisters, a collective term for both native and extraterrestrial lifeforms that are now the dominant species on the ravaged planet. The world's human population is struggling to survive after a cataclysmic event referred to as the "Crisis of Systems" nearly destroyed all life on Earth, leaving the anthropomorphic Geisters to rule.

At the heart of the show, we have two primary groups: the "Ninja Squad" and the "Dragon Keepers". The Ninja Squad, a group of five young yet skillful warriors, work in tandem with a scientific research institution in a bid to restore order, rebuild their world, and reclaim the Earth. Despite being outnumbered and outmatched, they refuse to yield to their precarious circumstances.

On the other side, there are the Dragon Keepers, a set of advanced Geisters with abilities superior to their counterparts. The Dragon Keepers have adopted the now desolate and bleak Earth as their home, and they unreservedly resist and combat human efforts to retake their reclaimed territories.

Adding a rich layer of complexity to the narrative, the Geisters themselves are not inherently evil. They are sentient beings with their own hierarchy, social structures, ambitions, and also struggles. This provides plenty of moral dilemmas and forces characters - and viewers - to question the very nature of "heroes" and "villains".

The anime emphasizes on character development as a key aspect, where the struggles and strengths of the human protagonists are depicted through their battles against their Geister counterparts. In the face of an overwhelmingly strong enemy, the human spirit is represented through the protagonists who refuse to bow to the harsh reality, choosing instead to fight for survival.

Each episode pirouettes between hair-raising battles and reflective dialogues, showcasing the ability of the series to balance action with thoughtful storytelling. The plot is enhanced with stellar animation quality, intense character expressions, futuristic robotic combat scenes and picturesque images of a devastated but resilient Earth.

Geisters: Fractions of the Earth also tackles issues and concepts like co-existence, xenophobia, and survival instinct through its narrative, making it more than just a regular action-adventure anime. It prompts viewers to assess the world from diverse perspectives, urging a deeper understanding and empathy towards not just fellow beings, but any form of life that we share this planet with.

Furthermore, the series also explores themes of camaraderie, resilience, and the intricacies of human spirit under duress. It's bold, timely, and refuses to shy away from poignant moral and existential questions, making the viewing experience both thrilling and thought-provoking simultaneously.

Continuity and interwoven storylines elevate the series to a higher standard. Each character's backstory, motivations, and their evolving dynamics between friends and foes all have a nuanced depth to them, making it a rich tapestry of individual stories contributing towards the larger narrative.

As a sci-fi series, Geisters: Fractions of the Earth has its fair share of technological advancements and robots, integral to the survival of humanity in this world. It brilliantly uses these elements in its narrative, integrating them into action sequences and as plot devices, subtly reminding us of the inescapable part technology plays in our lives and the potential power it can yield when used for survival.

Each episode of the show is a blend of nail-biting suspense, moral dilemmas, devastating compromises, and the indomitable spirit of survival. With its intricate plot, sublime animation, and profound thematic exploration, Geisters: Fractions of the Earth is a riveting show that impressively merges sci-fi adventure with existential dilemmas. It compellingly highlights the human spirit's resilience against existential threats, all the while posing important questions about our co-existence with other forms of life, and survival, flourishing in the face of adversity - ideas as timeless and relevant as ever.
