Mignon

Mignon is simply AMAZING, and you ABSOLUTELY should try it!
ABJ did a great job again! They're the same studio that produced Hyperventilation, and now Mignon, who have an beautiful animation, ofc in some points its quite strange, most of the times when have a difficult perspective, but even with some errors, its so incredible what they did! The music, the atmosphere, everything makes me fall in love with this anime since the beginning.
The story is a good and simple, the characters don't have a big development, but i fell in love with them, mainly with Mignon who have a BIG Charisma! Everything is worth in ... here, and even with some lower points, its so enjoyable that doesn't bother you.

Anyway, give a try on this, its beautiful and really short one! If you need a place to see, you can find it on the ABJ's Vimeo!

Oh my goodness gracious me. Saw the youtube trailer years ago and wasn't even sure it was ever going to be released. Happened upon it this week. My good god, this anime has an amazing premise - vampire doctor & boxer??! Interesting, unique and gorgeous scenery and art style, GREAT music - synth and jazz? Hell yeah - plus - MY GOD - that sex scene??
Not much makes me blush but wow, yes, this sure did.

I think the story was really unique, especially among the genre - and I loved that sort of sci-fi, slight apocalypse vibe? while still having the traditional vampire character... Lots ... to love about this series, really happy I found it again.

Great fun,
LOVED IT!

TW: Blood, sex, violence, fighting

Mignon is a very short BL anime, the episodes range from 4 to 8 minutes but a lot happens during this time. The story progressed quickly and is easy to follow and understand. The animation is very nice and smooth, and I love the character designs! The characters are pretty interesting and I wish we knew a bit more about them and their origins but I'm sure there are some fan theories out there. As well as the characters are very likeable and add to the story. Also, the colours! The colours are amazing and very aesthetic-looking ... as they weren't too overpowering but added to the scenes and helped portray the emotions of the characters. Additionally, the sound design was pretty nice too, very realistic and crisp!

The last episode! Woah! Very passionate (don't worry, the details are blurred)

I stumbled on this anime and it was AMAZING!!! Good plot and characters and storyline...I read yaoi before but this is the first time actually watching it and my mind is blown. I would love to see more like these

Allow me to ramble a little

Simply INNOVATIVE!!
The mix between a vampire and a boxer was phenomenal, the couple has opposite characteristics, Mignon, in addition to being very cute, is very extroverted while the doctor is more reserved.

If you're not accustomed to BL stories, it's a good work to start watching, it's very calm and the plot keeps us hooked.

It's no wonder that the best is saved for last and that's exactly what happened in the BEST LOVE LOVE SCENE I've ever seen in my life, a lot of attraction and passion emanated from these two ^^

The couple ends happily and a new journey takes place in Mignon's life eheheh

WATCH ... IT'S VERY GOOD

The relationship between humans and vampires is one of literature's most lasting and notorious ones, and Mignon explores it in an imaginative, superbly written, intriguing, and engaging tale. In this anime, two characters from two distinct stories come together, and they must learn to both comfort one another while also filling in the gaps left by people from their own parallel realities and their own personal issues. The anime portrays a fascinating and much darker side while also delving into the complexities of love, personal growth, and the profound effects that people may have on one another's life. While also emphasizing themes like self-worth, discovering ... inner power inside oneself, adversity, and the capacity to move ahead from past events. The color selections and color schemes used in each scene were incredibly serene, gorgeously atmospheric, and established various tones, from the night time city background, which was an exquisite crimson red packed with more shaded colors to create a sense of intense feeling and action, to the daily routine of Mignon and Oh Young seen inside and outside the arena filled with hues of blue, yellow, white, pink, and other colors to create a sense of peace and liveliness. The anime is thematically similar to the author's past works, such as Hyperventilation and Unbelievable Space Love, in that it has well-developed characters with whom the audience may sympathize, despise, and relate in both positive and bad ways, as well as excellent production values. The anime's powerful, edgy, vibrant, honest, and fascinating music complements the situations and feelings shown in it. The acting and performances of the characters were truly suitable in terms of how they were able to deliver and catch their lines in a way that showed both their thoughts and feelings of the character being played, as well as the effort and experience they put into playing the part. Overall, I would strongly suggest this one to anyone who is a fan of Bboong Bbang Kkyu's works or has an interest in the anime's following genres.

I wish there was more of this series, each episode is short but it was kind of nice for my attention span. I have rewatched this show 3 times because of the art style. At first I didn’t know how to feel about it, but it’s so so good. There is a transformation scene and it felt so cinematic, the way they did the visuals was so nice to look at. I love the way the characters look, and I love the way they sound. I haven’t seen too many boxing animes, but this one definitely had a twist. If you like Boxing, Vampires, Romance, ... steamy scenes, Drama, and especially a Bl, then this show is for you. Finally all I’m going to say without spoiling is that, it’s definitely steamy so if you aren’t into sexual themes, this anime isn’t for you.

This Anime is a stunning piece of work, if you love moody, BL and vague world building, this is the anime for you. I will be honest this was so good it got me back into anime after not watching for a good 10 years.

The Art style fits beautifully, the backgrounds are amazing and guides the mood so much. The Characters are drawn so elegantly. The fights help tell the story, they might not be perfect or the best but that is so not what you are here for.

The plot is amazing - so well done I was expecting one thing and I got ... another, so much of the story is really told by mood not actual dialogue or action. Its amazing how they show what a character is feeling using a shot and just the background music . Oh the Background Music - so timed just right it fits so well.

This one kind of came out of left field. I was expecting a cheesy Korean BL drama which I could half enjoy and half laugh at. What I got was an incredibly dense story line set over one of the best examples of atmosphere building I've ever seen in an anime. The romantic tension felt entirely right when it was supposed to, and too far when it was supposed to be too far for comfort. It is indeed cheesily BL at times (EP12) but I don't mind that so much when there's such a banging soundtrack and atmosphere. It's kind ... of tough to get at what I mean, but there's this really deep 80's synthwave vibe to this show, and the music just constantly slaps. The camera shots are gorgeous and the cinematography is top notch. I recommend this anime to anyone who can stomach BL and likes really good atmosphere building.

It's an amazing piece of work, I wish the story was at least twice as long, if not more! The premise is very interesting, two outcasts finding each other in the least probable of places. You wouldn't think another vampire story would bring anything new to the table, but somehow it felt fresh and unique, and I really wish we got to see more of it - what happened earlier, Doc's and Mignon's backstories, how they first met, but also what happened after the ending. I am so so curious about this world, I want more!

Also, the way the entire story is drawn is ... a masterpiece. You can feel the stuffy atmosphere of the club, the emptiness of the city at night, the timelessness of Doc's flat being a patchwork of all his past lives... It is beautifully done, the transformation scene got me shaking, it was so damn good! And the music adds so much cool to the whole vibe of the series, it's like a cherry on top of an already great cake.

I highly recommend it, it's a beautiful piece of animation.

This is a really good anime. The animation was so good. They really did well with the storyline. This anime could have been a hit anime if it wasn't Bl. Still, I loved it as it is. Both the main characters are written so well. Even if someone doesn't like the Bl, they should still give it a shot. Just skip the last episode. Overall, it is a great anime and everything is portrayed so graciously here. As for me I am into the Bl genre and they did eat this up. The relationship development is what I liked here.
