Gegege no Kitarou (2018) (Anime) add

Recommended

Preliminary (12/97 eps)

Even though Gegege no Kitaro is an really old anime series, i've never had any contact with Kitaro series before this 2018 version, even if since 1968 it has a new remake airing each decade...

At first, to a person who never heard about Gegege no Kitaro, the anime seems silly and adding the children rate, most people would not even give a chance to this one, but thank God i gave that chance... because
considering it is a children rated anime, which is mostly to introduce the yokai culture to the new generation, this anime is really amazing.

Instead of treat Yokais as something silly ... with superficial stories and mostly censured to a children... this anime do the opposite. Since the beginning it's said "Just because we can't see them, doens't mean they doesn't exists"... and the episodic stories about the yokais are told in a deep way while makes lots of critizes related to Japan's society, and all these stories are embedded within the modern tenet of the 21st century, such as the use of technology for support on yokai related situations, something that didn't exists in previous versions.

Story: 9/10
As i said before, instead of tell superficial stories just to introduce the yokais to the new generations, the anime has a good way of treat the stories while mixes the darkest moments with good comical timing, what holds you in the show. Also using a totally original character (Mana Inuyama), a human, to introduce the yokai Kitarou and his crew to the anime watchers, in the first episode was a really good move, and it's really good that she is a regular character who actually has some plot.

Art: 8/10
To a Toei's anime it's has a really good art, having a good amount of consistence in the character design and being very well animated in action points.

Sound: 9/10
The vibes that Yasuharu Takanashi's musics give fits very well with this anime story theme, something old, mixed with more modern arrangements that contrasts with the "introduction of tecnology in modern days to Kitaro and his crew".

Characters: 8/10
It has really good main characters, these being are introduced through the episodes. All the characters have their moments, and even the original girl seems to have some good developments with Kitaro, who is more colder in this version compared to previous ones.

Enjoyment: 10/10
I really liked this anime, more than i should haha, but i can really say something... This anime is amazing, so good that made me look for the previous versions to watch.

General: 9/10
It' is a really good anime. Has a good art, good amount of action, characters, critizes and music it's a perfect combo to watch on Sundays... it's a waste that it has such a low rate here...

Gatchaman Crowds (Anime) add

Recommended

This is my first review on this site, so i apologize for any english/grammatical errors.

Well, i can't explain how much i enjoyed this Gatchaman series (to the point that makes to write this review)

I've loved the social criticals about our world needing heros or not. I think the shock of idealisms between Rui and the Gatchaman crew, if people should just relies on heros instead of changing their own world by themselves is amazing and one of my favorite things about this show. Also the villain Katze-Berg is something amazing too, the autor made him, a example the most dark sides of
