When I chose to watch this anime by reading the synopsis, I was in assumption that this would be a normal anime. But as I started watching, episode by episode I was pulled into the world and emotionally invested with the characters and overall this turned out to be a great show for me.

Story: When we talk about the story of this anime, at the very crux this encompasses history at its setting, from the viewpoint of two main characters of this show, Ibuya Manjirou and Ryouan Tezuka. To be frank the whole story can be summarized with simple words, but the power lies in ... the way they have portrayed the sequences. There were many sequnces throughout the anime which were harsh, rough and also some simple moments which excellently captured my heart. The comical segments in this anime were purely brilliant and natural.

Characters: The main strength in this anime were the characters, the main characters around which the story progresses are Ibuya and Ryouan, who being youngsters were a part of important historical segment and their way of perception, action and reaction are are the combination of their wonderful characterization.

Sound: The magic of this anime is the music design. The anime starts with a peaceful OP which welcomes you into the world and the ED makes sure to bring your mind back to reality, which helps to appreciate the special moments and gives engaging time for you to ponder your thoughts regarding the characters and sequences at the end of each episode. And my most favorite music piece appears time to time in each episode in two cases:
1. At the conclusion of each episode where the narrator sums up the episode at the end just before ED starts.
2. At key emotional moments.
This music piece brought me serenity and made my heart light filled with emotion.

Overall this was a wonderful experience for me to watch Hidamri no Ki and this is a highly recommended to the following people,
1. Who love anime with historical setting.
2. Who love organically developed comic sequences rather than overly exaggerated funny pushovers.
3. Who love to invest time in those anime which exposes you to quirky characters who tuns to be a wonderful human as they grow, which eventually makes you to grow your emotions upon them.
4. Who love light-hearted emotional animes, which encourages you to introspect yourself and appreciate your life.

At the end, Hidamari no Ki is one of the special anime which was highly worth the time I spent with it and I really appreciate the blissful experience I received with it.

Shoubushi Densetsu Tetsuya is a great old school style anime and is highly underrated. The show creator's take on the scenarios during the time in which the story is set are well planned and realistic. The story begins with the titular character tetsuya visiting mahjong parlors and feels he is skilled and lucky enough to win the game. During a game he incidentally meets a player named Boshu, after this the story takes you on a roller coaster ride of blissful experience. The characters are well developed and I rarely felt any character as unncessary, almost all the character had an importance and contribution towards ... the story. The pacing of the story is a great plus point which keeps you hooked in each episode. The music direction was also exceptional which made sure to provide you the right emotional touch at the right time. The OP and ED of this anime is also apt with the tone of the show. Overall, this anime is a great experience and its not just about gambling and mahjong, its much more than that.

Title: Dennou Coil

This creators of this anime have done a tremendous job here. Starting from the beginning itself, they introduce us into the world they have built up and the tempo of the story keeps on gaining momentum till it reaches a fantabuluous cresecendo at the final couple of episodes.

The attention to detail with respect to building the world and developing the characters are just awesome. Dont miss to enjoy this anime if you have not already seen it.

The makers have succesfully crafted the mystery along the complete story and have also tied the loose ends very efficiently.

The story begins in the form ... of an adventure story but as the time progresses and the key characters are introduced, the story diverts itself to be an excellent thriller all over and the climax gives you the best satisfaction.


Overall Rating: 10/10
