I came into this season of anime thinking that this anime was going to be a trash anime added to the pile while shows like "fairy gone" was going to be the main attraction. BOY WAS I WRONG. the complete opposite in fact.
This show is fun. Have you ever seen xxxholic? remember how the main characters would go around and have fun situations with supernatural elements that govern the world? imagine that but the characters aren't annoying anime cliches.
sure, one can say that some of these characters are boring. But honestly the involvement of some of the supernatural entities REALLY bounces off of them.
The show involves a world inhabited by creatures called "anothers" who exist in secret a long side humans. These Anothers come in many different forms and a lot of them resemble a lot of folk lore creatures.
But, where does the fun come in? Well. the main draw of this anime is that Anothers shouldn't just straight up be killed if they cause trouble. The main characters of this story understand that these beings need to exist on earth while not involving themselves with humans.
that's what makes it so fun to watch. They don't kill them, the main character ends up coming up with strange solutions to deal with these Anothers that ends up making everyone happy in the end. Whether it be having a drink with them or having a pagota party, there's always a fun solution.
One thing i also like is Kohaku. The metrosexual Aztec god. My god he is so cool and i love every moment he is on screen. But enough about that, let me tell you about the music:
Very low-key fantasy like. The music pays attention to the setting and acknowledges that the show has a city life, but at the same time plays kajiura-like fantasy themes that are subtly mixed in. Very nice on the ears.
Overall, this show was a treat. The main problem I had with the show is that each episode starts off slow. Usually, in a good anime, they end the episode with a hook, and then the next episode completes the hook, goes into more info, then goes for another hook by the end.
Not this show, it kind of just ends after solving everything-then you gotta go into the next episode waiting for the more interesting key elements to happen.
