The only MONSTROUS thing in this movie was the HYPOCRISY of Aizen.


"Punish him, he brought a human child to this world"


Also, the monsters are all blind.

Damn, I really want the strength to forget time, the world and myself in order to transcend reality.

I don't understand the desire to live an ordinary life when they have a choice of living an extraordinary one in the beast world. Since it seems easy to cross between worlds, If I was Ren, I'd stay most of the time in the beast world as a martial arts sensei, then visit my parents and GF in the real world every now and then. It's infinitely better than working a boring corporate job for the rest of my life in the real world.

Hmm, Ichirouhiko turning evil felt like it came out of nowhere. They should've spent time showing how he turned into the dark side instead of showing those scenes in the real world. I like seeing waifus in my shows, however, for this story, I think the girl is just a distraction and she's just stealing screen time instead. Not to mention, I don't like her hairstyle. lol

I like the animation, and it's making me reflect on my anger issues lmao it does make you crazy when you give in to that beast inside so. Aside from that, I think it also has a straightforward plot and it's simple yet there's an important lesson about how you control yourself. Parenting style shows what kind of mess-up are you xD

Call me a sucker for older men basically adopting a child and all the shennigans that are with it. The relationship between Kumatetsu and Kyuuta was geniunely great very unique yet satisfying all the same.

There are issues, such as Kyuuta being ridiculously quick to want to transition back to human society with no real forethought. I really liked Kaede and if there was going to be a "romance" in here, she was a very great support for Ren.

I would've liked Ichirouhiko and Kyuuta to have more of a personal vendetta to go up against each other; a lot was built up for the final showdown and it does look stunning but it felt like it could've gone even deeper.

8/10.

Wow, I must be really callous to not feel the "touching" moment in the movie which some of you were talking about. I think it takes more than this story to make me feel touched.

I'm not saying this movie is bad. In fact, I liked it; it so happens that it's not something I would put on my top-recommended anime list.

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

Overall it was a great movie. I adore the art style and the story. But how other beast doesn't realize Louzen also have a human child and why did Kyuuta had so much conflict all of a sudden to move out of Kumametsu with his father even though he have emotionally more connected with him? And that's not all; Kyuuta not becoming a swordman against also is a bit strange. The writer didn't give Kyuuta a proper development at the end.
