The Beautiful World
For all those fans of Mushi-Shi or lovers of standalone stories, comes my review of one of the most deeply philosophical Anime I have ever watched. Lasting for only thirteen episodes, Kino's Journey proves that sometimes good things do come in small packages. The characters of Kino and her talking motorcycle Hermes are very well fleshed out, and while this might sound like a goofy romp, it is, in reality, a moody sojourn of the main characters through many strange countries which Kino visits for three days apiece. This show is well written, self contained, and though it is short, it feels very much fulfilled. The art style is endearing, and the atmosphere mysterious. For those of you who like entertainment that makes you question and reason, this show, I am almost certain, will not disappoint.
Overall: 9.8/10
