I had only seen the first episode of Kemonozume around last year which wouldn't stop echoing in my mind until restarting the series today, and now I'm betting the echo's amplitude has increased like a les rallizes denudes song. I don't think I've ever seen anything more visually electrifying like this, and it's kinda disappointing considering I haven't really found anything with this kind of style out there.
Story: With Yusa's illogical animation, you definitely need a wacky story to accompany it and here you'll find samurais clashing with human/monster hybrids, cannibalism, zoophilia, peach loving monkeys smooching with monkeys growing out of an evil head running on a gigantic ball headed for destruction, you name it. I did feel detached from the some details near the second half, but the conclusion hit it home on an outerworldly level (literally and metaphorically).
Art: Kemonozume's art style is everything. There was this one girl who always came to my class with the wildest choices of clothes on, I kinda had a thing for her. One part that would always come back to me from the first episode that I mentioned earlier was the water in the background when Toshihiko and Yuka stare at each other before they kiss. Or the vibrant colors used in the intro dialogue, not to mention how illuminating it looks as if the animators somehow took a lamp and underlaid it behind the scenes. My only complaint though is the lack of s_surrealizm which I had really anticipated after seeing the crown achievement of mankind Mind Game.
Sound: The episodes feature some upbeat jazz which I definitely digged as it held hands with the action scenes, but there's another piece of music found in the 3rd episode after the subway chase scene, which was the opposite of upbeat. Aw man, you see pretty umbrellas swaying in the streets with that guitar in the background stimulating my posterior pituitary gland in releasing some chillout hormones. The intro/outro themes are also alright, though nothing personally special.
Character: Toshihiko struggling between the path of the sword and his heart was amusing, his romance between Yuka and Rie had its moments, I never really cared for the minor characters (especially their backgrounds), but there was Saru the monkey who I'll never forget.
Enjoyment: I enjoyed my time... bye.
