I'll get straight to the point.
For series having only 3 episode and to top off that with only 5 minutes per episode, one shouldn't expect much. The same goes with Sekiei Ayakashi Mangatan. Story isn't something extraordinary as it consists of an artist who draws supernatural creatures. The art isn't all bad. It's decent enough. Same goes with the sound. Characters are pretty neat and kinda good. Not much enjoyment, just like a fan service scene where the artist takes the clothes off and the episode ends. Overall - 5 (Don't expect much. It's just not got enough time.)
This is a bit of a strange OVA series. However, I like strangeness.
At only 5 minutes for each episode you know you're not going to get much but what you do get is good. The story is about a reclusive artist who only paints demons he encounters and he encounters them by helping people with their demon problems. In this OVA series he helps a women who has bought secondhand clothes possessed by a demon which is a bit of a kleptomaniac and the women can't take off the clothes and gets blamed for the thefts. The series can only be good without being brilliant. A read more
While the short 5 mins of airtime per episode is restrictive, this anime is a stereotypical yokai happening.
The premise of an artist who has his knowledge of demons in drawings was the hook which lead to an empty boot of resigned dissatisfaction. The monster of the tale was new and kinda interesting but honestly, I cannot bring myself to be invested in this. The characters are flat and predictable. They have the potential to be so much more memorable (going by their colourful designs) but instead, their personalities are cardboard. Character development is non-existent. Sekiei Ayakashi Mangatan is the anonymous face of run-of-the-mill animes. Watch read more |
