Kamisama Kazoku

Samatarou is not just an average high-school boy, the truth is that he is the son of a god, his mother is a goddess and his sisters are candidates to become goddesses. They are living in the human world, because they want their boy to learn about the human customs and the habits of the creatures that they are protecting, so that in this way Samatarou will become a better god. Tenko is a angel assigned to look after Samatarou. She's born the same day, same year as Samatarou and have been close friends ever since. Life seems normal but things start to change with the appearance of a transfer student named Kumiko. Samatarou falls in love with her and from now on, things will be a lot more different for him. His decision of making her fall in love with him without using his powers will put him in trouble.

Now here's an unusual anime concept.

I wasn't too sure what to expect from this series as the conecpt seemed a little unusual for an anime - the story not being about angels or gods dealing with humans, but rather the son of god learning what it means to be human.

The show is well written and moves along at a nice pace. The story itself is quite intruiging, and the main characters develop quite well throughout the show.I especially enjoyed the fact that the show evolved to include darker themes towards the end

The animation is of a very high standard, and the opening music is a ... very catchy rock/pop tune.

Overall this is a nice series that develops the characters well. It gets a little dark towards the end of the series, but this is done very effectively.

This is an enjoyable show to watch and I would recommend this to fans of Chrno Crusade, Ah! Megami-sama, Pita-ten, etc.

Kamisama Kaoku is about the God's family who lives on earth and the life ofGod's son who falls in love with a girl from his high school. And the twists that come about as he realises his feelings which he has for his life-long friend and guardian angel.

I think the story is unique, it is definitely your fantasy-romance kind of anime. There was a good deal of romance in the anime and the drama was present as wellso if you are a romance-drama fan you might like it. However, the story does not have an outlying plot that encompasses the whole anime so there ... are like small arcs of 2-3 episodes, only the romance is continuous throughout the story. Which i partly because it was so short i guess, had it been longer a better storyline could have been developed, thus this anime had a lot of potential.

The style of drawing is different from your more popular anime style and its quite refreshing for a change. I found it quite suited for this anime, since it was a romantic comedy it was good in depicting comical scenes.

The sound was so-so ,not that there was anything outstanding about it at all no insert songa either so can't say the studio did their best with the music.

The characters were not very deep, but they still portrayed the typical high school lovelife behaviour to a comical degree at points. It is because of the lack of seriousness in the romance that i did not find it so captivating. There are only a few character in the anime and the supporting characters are just for comic relief with no significant roles.

I enjoyed the comedy in the anime, as well as the romance but as i said earlier its not to the degree that i truly enjoy. However, the story line is quite different from your typical highschool love affair because of the dabble of fantasy in it so it makes quite an ok anime.

If your up for a comedy and not so serious romance then this anime is for you, it had good potential but it was not built upon so for a 13 ep anime its quite good, so if your up for a short break from the serious tones of some horror or psychological anime then give this one a try.

Mixed Feelings

I watched this show while at the same time mocking it... there were just too many scenes that were pathetically done. This show is about the son of god whom is living in the human world to learn more about them so that one day he'll become the perfect god with the understanding of human beings, thus training. He appears to be 15, so of course; he's going to a high school. He has a companion, an angel who helps/guides him while he's training to become this perfect god. The angel appears to be madly in love with the son of god. Kamiyama, the son ... of god, instead ignores these oblivious love warnings by the angel. The story follows arcs, different story's every 2-3 episodes, that consist of the angel and Kamiyama doing ridiculous acts together.

Story: I thought the story had a unique feel to it; never had I seen such a story like this. Unfortunately, I have many times seen horrible set ups to story's that had potential; this show is one of them. The story set up was excessively corny, and like I had stated; I mocked the show while watching it due to it's unprogressive feel.

Art: The art was decent, enough for me to tolerate. The shows art appeared to me as a 2003 anime with good quality. The art definitely didn't compare to some other anime's that were produced in 2006. But as I stated, decent.

Sound: For the most part, the music was dreadful. A riven prying it's way into hell. There was only one piece of music/sound that I did particularly enjoy, which constituted this "high" score of 5. I'm not sure what it's called, but it appeared in the later episodes. The clip of music was in the "episode recap" right before the actual show began.

Character: We have a blue haired dumb ass, a pink haired girl who resembles a devil more than anyone in the show, a mother with a sexual attraction to her son, and a god who can't do shit. You'd think being the son of god you'd have at least a small amount of magical power... no, of course not. Kamiyama appears to react to the exact same alarming sequences a normal human would... Kamiyama is a human. The whole entire show was compiled of idiotic powerless labels.

Enjoyment: Just because I'm giving the show a "6" doesn't mean that it was good, at all. The anime really only amused me by comedy, as every scene in this show needed someone laughing at it. Very little was put into this show... and even though it made me laugh, it made me laugh for the wrong reasons. I give enjoyment "6" because the anime made me laugh.

Overall: This show was quite mediocre but managed to not completely fail due to it being so mediocre that it was funny. I wouldn't recommend this anime to somebody who has a similar taste in anime with me. I typically enjoy serious anime's over comedy's. This anime... wasn't serious in the least bit. But if you like comedy's, if you like anime's without structured plots, then go crazy with Kamisame Kazoku.
