some great shows...
Kino's Journey was definitely an interesting title for those that like things that are different from the norm. Kino was also an awesome character. I'm of the opinion that its not a show that people can easily get into. it seems more-so targeted at a hardcore crowd or people that like to think on things in depth. What I liked most about the series was its traveling concept so you'd know every episode would be something quite different from the last and it would keep your interest quite well because of that I remember the railroad episode and the ep about the voting society and the "play warring" nations being my favorites and quite interesting..
Monster I've heard good things about all over and intend to try out myself someday. |
Kino's Journey brought a lot of things to the table, subverted idealism, human characters, and some good writing. It's rare that stuff like that comes from the juvenile fiction genre. It also had it's motto of "The world is not beautiful, and therefore it is", which can apply well to the darker sides of this world that we tend to ignore.
Monster is as far as I know the only Psychological Thriller genre anime I liked, I'd probably not have watched it if my standard anime suggestion friend didn't tell me to watch it every time he recommended something until I did. (I generally don't watch anime that falls above 60 episodes often.) It has the advantage of being one of the best planned out animes in existence... I should probably watch it again. |
