Casshern Sins

In a distant future, Earth has become a wasteland and humanity as we know it has died out. All that remains are sentient robots. They were supposed to be able to live forever—until the one called Luna died and the Ruin started. Their bodies will rust, and there is nothing that can be done to fix it. Now the robots are left only to contemplate their deaths, kept going only by the rumor that if they eat the one called Casshern, they will gain immortality.

Casshern knows nothing about his past, why he exists, or what he is, but he must find out, or he will face the constant torment of being hunted by robots who don't want to die. Casshern leaves death wherever he goes, but he must face it if he is to find out the truth of this world.

There’s only one word that can describe this story, entrancing. While the show may have a massive cult following, it is not a mainstream success. It is rather dark and caters to a fairly niche taste. To the unsophisticated, it may even appear as boring. I hesitate to use the word deep, for it has arguably become a cliché devoid of meaning, but there’s definitely something profound to this series. It reminded me of Mushishi in the way every character’s story would just suck you in and leave you stuck in a trance. One episode legitimately brought me to tears.

The result of a collaboration between ... Madhouse and Tatsunoko Production, Casshern Sins, as far as I can tell, is largely unrelated to the rest of the Casshern franchise.

This incarnation tells the story of a man who caused the end of days, an immortal cursed to live forever in a dying world. When he killed the Goddess of Life, Luna, Casshern lost all of his memories and received her gift of eternal life after soaking in her blood. Alas, the world was doomed in the process. The Ruin has started. Nothing can be born or built anymore, nor healed or fixed, and everything that’s alive is fated to decay and die shortly. Now he wanders a post-apocalyptic wasteland trying to piece together his past and search for a way to atone for his sins.

The show is an exploration of the way people act in the face of certain death. Many succumb to resentment and fear. The robots, who in the past took over the world and subdued the humans they viewed as inferior, once timeless machines, are now fated to rust and die alongside the fleshlings. Some are blinded by anger and try to hunt down Casshern in order to exact revenge upon him, while others delude themselves with wishful thinking and cling to baseless rumors believing that if they devour Casshern’s flesh, they, too, will receive eternal life and escape the Ruin. “Kill Casshern! Devour Casshern!” they chant.

Most people, however, try to deal with it in their own private ways. There are those who accept their fate and want to quietly wait for the end. Then there are those who believe that now, thanks to the Ruin granting them the gift of death, their lives as machines finally have meaning, for life only has meaning when it is finite. There are others who try to desperately fight against the Ruin and live their lives to the fullest until their very last second. Some dedicate their last to help, protect, and console the weak and desperate. Others, still, simply want to use the time they have left to leave something for posterity, leave behind proof of their existence.

Each encounter is in some way a formative experience constantly exposing the protagonist (and by extension, the viewer) to new philosophies of life. At the same time, each encounter represents some kind of more or less thinly veiled metaphor for one of the aspects of life, joy, illness, love, depression, sex, legacy, hope, madness, peace, reproduction, war, death, and so on.

How would you behave at the edge of your hope? The end of your world?

Mixed Feelings

This review will contain SPOILERS for the show and will be pointed out before each section.
INTRODUCTION
While the premise of a character exploring the meaning of life after the world fell to ruin greatly interest me the execution itself was poorly done.
CASSHERN
Firstly, the main character Casshern is uninteresting as the only emotion he exhibits is depression, because of the fact that the caused the "ruin" which overtook the world. While facing the fact that you are the one that caused the end of the world would cause likely cause the feelings Casshern displays the issue is he doesn't remember doing this, in fact he remembers nothing. ... He is told multiple times that he killed Luna which caused the ruin and every time he acts if this is the first time he has heard this information. Even after seemingly accepting this fact and coming to terms with it, in a later episode he goes back to the way he felt before this. Eventually Casshern does learn that he must move on from his past, but his personality doesn't change all too much.
LYUZE (SPOILERS)
Lyuze wants to kill Casshern because he killed her sister and Luna and is the cause of the ruin. Every scene she is in with Casshern she states this to him. She yells at him explaining to him that it is his fault the world is like this. I understand her anger at him at first but that is all she does is just yell at him (which just becomes repetitive), until she learns to accept that he has grown as a person. Another issue I found with her character is that she believes that she has the ability to kill Casshern. It is demonstrated in almost every episode that Casshern is the most powerful being in the world, and that even though he wants to die he can't. So, it confuses me so much why she believes that she has the power to kill him, even after she ultimately joins his side and sees this. I've heard people say that her loving Casshern doesn't make sense after she so strongly hates him, but I disagree. Casshern has no memory of who he is and is a completely different person than who he was before. What does not make sense to me is how she still wants to hate Casshern even after acknowledging he is not a bad person; and the reason for this is the most selfish reason I can think of, "If Casshern isn't bad than that means I was wrong." Overall Lyuze's motives aren't bad, however the way she expresses herself is poorly written.
OHJI/RINGO
Ohji is Ringo's caretaker and I do find there dynamitic to be interesting. Ringo is a small girl who is basically the embodiment of purity in the world of ruin. Even though she is affected by the ruin it does not bother her and she just wants to play and be happy. It is a little cliche having a child not understanding the severity of what is happening around them, however I do think it works in this instance. Ohji's only motive in life is to look after Ringo and make sure she is happy. Well, it is a one-dimensional motive, learning more about Ohji it does make sense. Ohji does get more backstory halfway through the show, however nothing is done with this. I think the two are just average characters that mainly help drive the themes of the show.
DIO/LEDA
Dio and Leda are very one-dimensional characters. Dio is jealous of Casshern and wants to kill him, that is his only motive. The whole time Dio is on screen he is complaining about how much he wants to kill Casshern. While this does get resolved by the end of the show, it does not feel satisfying as a viewer because there isn't a connection between them outside of what we are told their connection is. Leda is Dio's partner, and she is actually the one controlling the strings which is shown from very early on during her introduction. Leda could be interesting if she didn't have to deal with Dio's want to kill Casshern. Every interaction between the two is summed-up as Leda: "Dio do this thing for me." Dio: "No I only want to kill Casshen." That is the extent of their relationship. Well, each character may have been interesting on their own the fact they are together drags them down, although this is explained in story reasons.
BRAIKING BOSS
Braiking Boss is one of the more interesting characters in the show and his reaction to the ruin and his relation to its causation are probably more realistic than Casshern's in my opinion. That being said he is not used much and only left a minor impact overall for me. I feel as though he should have been explored more than Dio and Leda and would have made a better main villian.
DUNE
I don't really have much to say about Dune besides I found him interesting.
LUNA (SPOILER)
The twist that Luna became "evil" if you can really it that didn't hit it for me. Well, it is explained why this happened, it doesn't feel satisfying at all. In fact, everything surrounding the character and her build up is unsatisfying. I think I should add that there is a difference between disliking the twist and finding it unsatisfying. I liked the premise of the twist, however like I said in my introduction, the execution of it was poorly done.
SIDE CHARACTERS
The show begins episodic, however towards the end this pacing stops. In the more episodic episodes new characters are introduced. I don't think any of these characters were real hits for me, and most of them just established the same theme. The Bandit robots are just stupid. I always hated the idea that every single low-level grunt believes that can defeat someone obviously higher in power than them. They are mostly just used as conflict when there needs to conflict or Casshern has to fight something.
PACING / PLOT
The pacing of the show is really slow, and I don't mind that in shows however the plot was boring to me, so the slow pacing amplified that feeling. As established in the Character review most of them are one dimensional and poorly executed. My biggest issue with the plot is it doesn't make sense how characters go from location to location; I'll explain the best I can without spoiling things. Basically, there's this rumor and Casshern tries to follow the rumor, but you only get the bare minimum details of the rumor as the viewer. Basically, the characters just sort wind up where they need to be with no explanation. This could easily be fixed with a side character saying, "oh by the way I heard if you go here, you'll find this," but no. It is never explained how our characters know where to go they just stumble around into places. While I understand this makes sense in episodic episodes, it is strange to see in the ones that aren't. Besides that, some things are introduced and never explained. One-episode introduces some background for Leda, but nothing seems to come of that. In the same episode a super important item is introduced that could be the solution to the main issue in the whole show, but again nothing comes from that. Those are my main issues with the plot besides the issues I have with the characters.
CONSISTANCY
This show is very inconsistence in many aspects. Besides what I described with the plot in the PLOT section there are more issues I have. First Casshern gets a robo-dog early on named Friender. Well, I don't mind him, he will just disappear for whole episodes with no explanation. In the very episode after he joins Casshern he is just gone the whole time, and then shows up in the episode after that one. What a robot exactly is also makes no sense. There are two types of robots, Bandits which are like more "classic" robots and then more humanoid robots. While some of the more humanoid robots look like robots; still robots like Casshern, Lyuze, and Ringo look like humans. On top of this some robots, bleed (blood not oil), breath, sleep, cry, feel (like the sense not emotions, but they have those too), grow up from children to adults, etc. the only thing they don't do is eat. In one scene Casshern ask Ohji if Ringo is human because she is bleeding, but then later on we see Ohji bleeding, and we know he is a robot. (Also nothing comes from Ohji's answer to Casshern.) It seems to me that the writers wanted the Robots to be able to express emotion, but just ignored the fact that they were writing robots and not humans. My last issue happened in two instances. First is in episode 18 where the same clip with the same animation and everything played back to back. While it could be argued that this was purposeful as the whole episode is basically a dream sequence, it felt more like an editing error. This happens one more time, but that time it is only with audio.
FIGHT SCENES
I've read a lot of people saying that the animation is one of the great aspects of the show, but I disagree when it comes to the fight scenes. They come off very choppy to me. One scene will be a character winding up for a hit, then cut to a close up on where the impact is. Most of the time you don't ever see the two people fighting in the same scene and it doesn't work for me. I want to actually see the fight not just close-ups of the hits. I will say however, that there is one fight towards the end that I think is done pretty well.
CLOSING THOUGHTS.
Casshern Sins has a good base but nothing else. Well characters seem like they could be interesting they are one-dimensional. The plot kind jumps around with no real solid connection between. There are many inconsistencies and things that just don't make sense as a viewer. Some important moments are poorly executed and what should be emotional comes off as laughable (Episode 18 and the overuse of Janice's song). I rated this anime a 5, which for some reason is listed as either Average or Mediocre. I think Mediocre sums this anime better. I don't think its good, but I wouldn't call it bad. It is worse than other anime's which I've given Average so I believe Mediocre is the best word to describe it.

Not Recommended

In a nutshell, I think that Casshern Sins is a terrible anime. I might’ve given it a slightly higher rating, say, a 2 or even a whopping 3 instead of 1 like I am giving it now, if only I haven’t picked it up because after watching Ergo Proxy I read on Reddit that “Ergo Proxy is just a pale shadow of Casshern Sins”. I loved Ergo Proxy to bits, so naturally I just had to have a look at something that was potentially even better. This, however, made me compare the two series at every turn, be it consciously or subconsciously, and it was ... never in Casshern Sins favor. So, I went in with reasonably high expectations, and what I have encountered has disappointed me so badly that my overall impression of Casshern Sins ended up being even grimmer than it could’ve been. That being said, I am certain that if I had gone in blind, I would still hate it.

Anyway, the plot tells us a story of a not-quite-robot-not-quite-human named Casshern who mopes his way through the wastelands of a planet where once a mighty robot civilization now falling prey to Ruin has flourished, or so we’re told, at least, but I somehow doubt the civilization had been that advanced. We only get to see a handful of small towns, one (one!) spare parts factory, a church, and the rest is, well, desert, copious amounts of flower fields (I swear, there are more flower fields than there are towns, but of course there are, everyone knows flowers are essential to robot well-being, right?), desert, lake, plains, sea, some more desert, caves, some gigantic microphone-shaped constructions of unknown origin and purpose protruding from the sand in the, oh, did I mention there’s deserts? No, there’s no roads or any infrastructure whatsoever, except maybe, uh, some pools or hot springs or whatever, which again, everybody know robots can’t live without, like flowers. Oh, and there’s a hidden experimental laboratory tucked away somewhere, too, but it’s the humans’, not the robots’.

Yes, there’s apparently humans, too, although you only ever see, like three of them over the course of the entire series and they’re all minor background characters. They have created robots, and the apparent root cause of all conflict in the series – Luna, an, uh, immortal frog-faced girl with twin blue ponytails that provided life eternal for man and robot alike, until Casshern came along and somehow managed to do her in despite her stated immunity to death, thereby attaining immortality himself and unleashing the mysterious plague called Ruin upon the world. What it does, as we’re told and shown, is that it makes robots rust and start to break down gradually, resulting in their eventual death and dissolution into dust. All tools are apparently subject to this too, for some reason. In episode two we’re told that replacing rusted parts doesn’t work, but it doesn’t preclude robots from still trying to do that in a bid to save their life. Just, y’know, not in a rational way of “mass-producing spare parts so we could change them as soon as they start showing signs of wear” (the only factory we see is in perfect working order, so it’s certainly not out of realm of possibilities). Instead, those who can, choose to hunt smaller and weaker robots to take them apart for their innards. As in, in one instance, a large, classic box-shaped giant robot with a flail or a morning star for an arm picks up a tiny robot identical to a human child in all respects, cackling triumphantly, and gleefully tells us he’s going to get so many good parts from this body still relatively untainted by Ruin. Are you fucking dumb, Robot-Man?! There’s no way ANY of her parts will fit you.

And that was a major source of my unending frustration with this anime – NOTHING adds up. The world is an entirely illogical mishmash of half-baked apocalypse-themed ideas no one ever bothered to think through. The details of it end up contradicting each other ultimately, and that’s where the details are given at all. I have mentioned above that humans are a part of the world in Casshern Sins, but nothing is ever explained about them, not their relationship with robots after they have created them (we only know that the robot king hated them, and that “bad” robot goons will kill them on sight, but the why of it is left out), not where they reside and what they are doing now, not how the Ruin affects them, if it at all does (seems to imply it does, fails to explain how), nor, most importantly, what the difference between the robots and people even is, despite this seemingly being a plot point.

Robots in Cassern Sins behave exactly like people would. They fall in love, the feel anger, joy, sadness, despair, they cry (one character remarks to the other with disdain “You’re crying?! Like a human?!” only to do that herself a few episodes later), they dream of becoming famous singers, they bleed, they can go for a swim, they sleep and rest, they breathe, they take pills, they have families, baby robots grow up into adult robots and grow old… About the only thing they haven’t explicitly shown them doing is eating, but neither do we get a sense of what energy source if not food keeps them functioning. No sockets or landlines, no batteries, no tanking stations, no solar panels… Why bother making most of the characters robots at all, if their being robots doesn’t add anything to the story? They could’ve just as well been humans that have attained near-eternal life through advanced medical technology (as the humans in Casshern Sins apparently have!) and not a single thing would have changed.

Because the world falls apart (literally, too, har-har), the motivation and the backstories of everyone involved crumble to dust right with it. Recurring characters are static and one-dimensional, and minor characters all blend together to form two blurry blobs: the bad guys that have to hurt others just because they happen to see them, cue our protagonist flying in to save the day and utterly destroying them in a bland fighting scene without any real stakes, and the, er, I suppose, good guys, that are trying to live to the fullest despite the world around them having gone to shit, or something. Just, the ways they do it are often absurd – there’s a guy who paints the whole town bluish white, even the tallest buildings somehow, despite him being in a wheelchair and needing help to go up a flight of stairs, a woman that tries to knock out a robot who’s just passing by and strikes her fancy with aroma candles to try and make him a part of a bell (don’t even ask), a girl who likes to beat others up and fight, but somehow she’s admirable unlike the bad guys because, I guess, she looks pretty and asks before she goes impaling robots on her sword? The only decent episodic character was the human from episode three, at least he brought some much-needed levity and exposition into the dreary mess Casshern Sins calls its plot. Just as well that he died very promptly.

The main character oozes angst like Ikari Shinji on steroids. From episode one it’s obvious that none of what’s happening is really his fault, but still he spends all of his screen time (and most of viewers’ time along with it)being emo about it. His preferred method of conversation is staring at people dumbly, moaning about his suffering and repeating the last few words his conversation partner said in a questioning tone. There’s also a robot dog, the only one we see in the series, whose relevance to the story is a mystery shrouded in an enigma, but it’s there in almost every episode anyway. Then there’s a girl who starts out hating Casshern’s guts and wanting to exact revenge on him, and then ends up falling in love with him out of the blue over the course of two bizarre episodes dedicated solely to the topic. No, they’re not about their interactions – their interactions are minimal at that point. It’s a peek inside her “inner world”, and boy is it weird as heck! You could say that this is the character with most development, but since all that development is shat into existence out of nothing, it doesn’t really count. Or maybe her falling in love with the protagonist was inevitable – because this could’ve just as well been a harem with how many women fawn over Casshern, cling to him and call him beautiful. Just because. Also, we have an annoying child, whose primary function is to a) laugh like an idiot, pluck flowers and marvel at how pretty things are so that we know how innocent and beautiful her heart is and b) run away and get lost. At one point, she also serves to get the gang’s hands on an important gimmick that turns out to be a MacGuffin, forgotten about in the very next episode and ultimately serving nothing. Oh, and there’s also her guardian and apparently, gasp, the creator of Casshern (which is never explored at all), whose sole purpose is to rant about how precious the robot girl in question is to him and drive a truck around to take her places. Places where she can stumble upon Casshern, so we can listen to how she repeats his name over and over and watch her gift him seashells or something. The antagonists are similarly one-note: Mr. “I-need-to-kick-Casshern’s-ass-with-my-two-feet-because-he-humuliated-me” and Ms. “Maleficent-who-wants-to-get-knocked-up”. I won’t even touch upon Braiking Boss and Luna, because that fail is of truly epic proportions.

Many here praise Casshern Sins for its visuals and sound. I won’t deny it, the crisp lines and stark, bright contrasting colors make this series easy on the eye, and the animation is fluid and dynamic. There is of course this weird fetish that the art director has with drops of water, flower fields and pieces of robots affected by Ruin chipping off and scattering into dust, and while it admittedly looks great, it’s repetitive to the point of obsession. It smack of an attempt to appear deep and meaningful through visual means without anything of substance backing it up. The black-and-white video footage insert in one episode is another example of that visual pretentiousness. Also, I, and this is due my personal taste, absolutely loathe the character design. It’s so overwhelmingly 70’s? 80’s? There’s very little variety in facial features – we have ugly classical “bucket of bolts” robots, humanoid-type robots with distinct half-oval eyes and single vertical line on their faces, and Casshern-style sleek and pretty robots indistinguishable from, say, humans. The only exceptions to the rule would be Ringo’s guardian Ohji, Braiking Boss and maybe that short dude from the church in episode two. Casshern, Dio and Leda’s design with their regenerating bodysuits and Gundam-esque horns made me giggle. Especially Casshern with the blatantly Superman-like “C” on his chest. Also, the trio seems to have a pair of weapons hanging from their hips purely for decoration as Leda is the only one to actually use them. Why do the rest bother with them again? And Luna… well, she just looks as if someone stuck a frog’s head in a blue wig and a bicycle helmet on a loli body.

As for the music, honestly, it made me laugh at the most inappropriate moments. Sometimes, the characters would talk, and then this incredible sappy melody would start blasting full-force, and instead of moving me to tears the scene would make me gag because of its blatant grab for my heartstrings. I’m familiar with Kaoru Wada’s work through anime like 3x3 Eyes and InuYasha, and the similarities between those OSTs and Casshern’s are striking to the point of the man plagiarizing his own work. I swear there was this one track that was a dead-on ripoff of his own Sango’s Theme for InuYasha. Where that sort of music worked for a simplistic and a bit naïve shonen anime, it fails to deliver in a postapocalyptic series with philosophical aspirations. It sounds pretty, sure, but it’s completely at odds with the world and the story it tries to convey. It doesn’t add to it, it detracts from it. The voice acting is unimpressive, particularly in the leads. I suppose that Casshern’s VA does an adequate job of conveying what a sad little boy the protagonist is, but he also manages to make him sound like he’s got a developmental disorder, and his “howls of pure agony”, groans and grunts sounded very unnatural. Lyuze’s VA made her character have all the emotional range of a toaster oven. Ringo sounded whiny, bratty and annoying, good job picturing a child, I guess? The rest were passable. I’d say Braiking Boss’ and Luna’s VAs hit the mark with their acting, but that didn’t save their characters from poor writing, unfortunately.

I’ve seen reviews claiming that all lore omissions, plotholes and worldbuilding problems are actually non-issues because this anime is not supposed to be a consistent, fleshed out sci-fi story, but more of a philosophical\psychological exploration of sorts, particularly of the issues pertaining to death and life in the face of immortality and unavoidable doom. I don’t know where people saw depth, or metaphors, or anything like that, because the series is about as subtle as Casshern’s fist in a random robot’s chest. Already in episode one (or was it episode two? they do blend together so) the main message of Casshern Sins is established – “there is no true life without death, precisely because of the prospect of perishing one must strive to live as full a life as possible”. Roll credits, I guess, because all that follows is a disjointed series of mind-numbingly repetitive vignettes that serve to illustrate this particular point with plots so similar they seem cloned. There’s also an overarching plotline that comes to the forefront in the latter half of the series, but it doesn’t bring any satisfying answers about the world or the characters, and the message stays exactly the same. I swear, this could’ve been one or two-episode OVA and it would’ve been sufficient to tell this story, if you wring it out to rid it of endless landscape shots, intense face close-ups, characters standing or walking in silence and meandering pointless dialogue that doesn’t shy away from repeating the exact same phrases several times in a row in the exact same wording.

Bottom line: Casshern Sins is a hollow, artificial, pretentious attempt at making a puddle look like an ocean. If you’re 13, like the idea of robots and have never happened to ponder your own mortality, give this a whirl, and maybe you’ll like it despite its agonizingly slow pacing. Also worth a try if you like to poke fun at logical fallacies, plotholes and poorly written dialogue. For the rest, it would be an exercise in frustration.
