What an unexpectedly fantastic anime! I had never heard of this before, and just decided to randomly watch it and ended up binging the entire thing in one sitting. It's a 3D Chinese anime, so perhaps that's why its not as popular as it should've been, I don't know, but it was absolutely fantastic and should be more well known.

The story surrounds the bond of two brothers who grow up through hardships to fulfill their destiny of protecting Rakshasa Street from evil spirits and outside enemies. In the first half of the anime, they do a fantastic job of making you care about the brothers and the bond they have through it all. In the second half, they are dedicated to swerving the hell out of you as the viewer, and twists are incredible. It goes from tear jerking to jaw dropping throughout the entire series. They add the humor through Xia Ling, a semi-air head who the brother's have to protect for certain reasons.

The story is far and away the best aspect of this anime, which brings humor, drama, and action together in a near perfect blend.

However, the anime isn't without its flaws. Mainly in the 3D animation parts, which is usually where the action was happening. There's no getting around it, the 3D animation here was absolutely atrocious. Like straight out the 90s. Fortunately, the entire anime wasn't created in that style. In addition, due to the events of the anime, one of the brothers becomes a bit annoying, which kind of drags on the later episodes, but the story more than makes up for it in the end.

This anime was an unexpected gem and I definitely think anyone who likes drama and action will enjoy it.
