Kemono Jihen

This anime definitely had it's moments. On one hand, I overally enjoyed in, watching it days after it finished airing. On the other hand, some things urked me. Like the fact that the main character, a kid who supposedly didn't know anything about his demonic side, suddenly knew how to do things involving his powers. I wish that would have been explained a bit more considering we got to see the other characters discover new things about themselves and struggle with their supernatural side. The only thing the kid needed help with was the demon mode without the stone thing. Regardless it was a nice watch, and I hope that we will be provided another season soon.

AMAZING ANIME OMG the story is amazing telling how Kabane is trying to find all of the life stones , null stone ... in order to lead to his parents so that maybe he can find em on the way he meets other kemonists just like him who share the same story about their parents being lost and so they help Kabane in order to find his parents The art is really good I wouldn't say its better than top 10 animes but definitely top 20, I recommend watching it, the art won't disappoint you. i enjoyed watching it , the characters are amazingly animated , I hope you will enjoy it too.

I hate long reviews. Story heavily influenced/based on Japanese mythology. MC a guy in early teens, earnest country bumpkin gets picked up as an apprentice by Tokyo kemono detective. (kemono -Japan's folklore creatures) MC experiences life for the first time ever. Makes friends of both genders, speaks to girl for the first time, and in general goes through slow existential awakening, learning humanitarian qualities and terms and how to come to terms with different shades of gray in real life. Animation in trailer made this anime look epic and full of action sequences. While every other episode has some brawl, animation looks more on the childish, mellow side think of "march comes in like a lion ", what doesn't work well with shonen story. Character development feels forced, some childish blunders are welcome especially so from Kabane, he is a an uneducated boy who's tolled fields his whole life, but other characters have no grounds to be so dumb. tl;dr if you like Enen no shouboutai (fire force), you will like Kemono Jihen. Mature story shown inadequately childishly.

This anime comes out from nowhere in my twitter's timeline and i guess it's worth a try. The characters design kind of look like My Hero Academia but more dark i guess? I was told that the anime was not as dark as the manga. it's also giving Tokyo Ghoul vibes but for children. The MC, Kabane was very cute though he's pretty emotionless at the start. He's really blunt but straight and honest to express his emotions. The "angry mode" was also very badass. There's not much adults characters in this show. they are a few, which were very scummy and trash. The red bitch also very mysterious and hard to tell her agenda. I prefer the ending song than the opening. Ajia-Do studio made this anime with a great details and the animations was amazing. Also the other main characters were decent. We got a chill Aizawa-sensei (Inugami-San), a tsundere but not as much as asshole Bakugo (Shiki), useless trap Venti (Akira) which I can't stand him at all. I hate every aspects of that girly boy. If this series popular enough to get a second season, I hope he does get a character's development and not as much as annoying as he used to be. I might as well to check out the manga after this.

Kemono Jihen fell victim to an absolutely stacked anime season. However, it still was able to find it's place as one of the shows I looked forward to watch and start off my week. It has an otherworldly vibe that makes me think a little bit of Noragami and Bungou Stray Dogs. There are interesting characters, interesting character development, and unique powers that keep you watching. On that topic, the OP is just so *chef kiss*. It's hard to really say much about this show without spoiling it. But if you have time, which let's be real you do if you're reading this, then check it out!

Kemono Jihen is a show that left me confused until the very last episode. I couldn't tell where the plot was going and the story mostly consisted of short arcs where the main characters deal with different kemono (aka supernatural beings) issues and solve them. Fine for a plot, but the main goal of the mc was to find his parents and that seemed to be put on the backburner so other characters could get introduced and developed. It wasn't until the last episode where I realized that this was a prologue to a much bigger story. Story:6 If the last episode hadn't clarified anything I would have given this an even lower score. A six seems fair for leaving me feeling like the events occurring in the story were somewhat aimless. Granted, the stories themselves are pretty dark, which I think was more for the benefit of the overall narrative than not. I definitely wouldn't recommend this show if you can't stomach dark issues. Overall, definite room for improvement. Characters: 8 I liked them. I honestly did. They're cute and distinct and that's more than I can say for most shows. My only real issues are the skimpy outfit that a certain (incredibly young) character starts wearing later on and the feeling that the treatment of women overall in the show was weird. I don't know, it's not something I noticed until it was pointed out to me, but I think once you notice it's hard to ignore. I think characters like Kon have definite room for growth but we didn't get that in this season. Art:9 Pleasantly dynamic and honestly much better than I expected. The animation for the facial expressions I thought was quite good in some parts and the fight scenes were all well done. Not Jujutsu Kaisen levels of well done, but certainly better than many other series I've seen. Sound: 10 Honestly what hooked me on the show was the ost. The use of strings in particular was spectacular, even for the slice of life music! I honestly hope the composer does more anime music in the future. I think I'd watch anything with his name attached. Seriously, I don't think there was anything else I enjoyed more than the soundtrack. Overall: 8 Screw it, I'm gonna give this the same score as Jujutsu Kaisen, mostly thanks to its soundtrack and what I thought was pretty good art and character moments. They're both prologues to long running shounen series, and honestly now that I sort of understand the overarching plot of Kemono Jihen, I think they are even more similar than I initially thought. I see the potential for both of them, I really do. But they're not masterpieces. Yet.

The anime had a really good start. For me its a story about 3 friends and a mentor who would go off the grid just to help his students. The story started with intro of the main lead. The story didn't had much to offer and was like a daily soap, but the way it was presented was electrifying. The story had the ability to make me stick till last and that's too unusual as i really get bored of any story and that makes me to leave the anime or any drama or web series in the middle. Really I will wait for season 2 as season 1 wasn't enough and the feeling of fulfillment wasn't achieved. Don't go with season 1 if you want the complete story, but go with it to see the OP main character and the way he handles himself in every situation.

I can say a lot of stuff, good and bad, regarding this anime, however one thing is for sure: if you are old to the anime scene, you have seen and re-seen the plot of Kemono Jihen in another tens, if not hundreds of anime. A kid is taken under the protective arm of an older character, so much wiser and powerful then he seems; there, the kid befriends other two characters with similar backgrounds like him and together with the help of others, try to elucidate a mystery or another. I am not saying is a bad plot, the anime is structured in a kind manner to allow you a flawless watch, with a few cliffhangers and emotions between the episodes, however the Deja-vu feeling that you have already been thru all of those cannot be easily ignored. The beautiful artwork and nice opening does not help, due to the anime especially ending in a bad place, with no hope of getting more out of it, unless you read the manga. However, to be honest, this type of anime is not the kind to make me jump straight for the manga the moment it ended. I am afraid of being even more disappointed on the plot while I can just find other, more interesting and unique plots elsewhere.

Kemono Jihen Recap (Spoilers) Kemono are ghoul-like organisms that feed on living creatures and are responsible for the recent situation regarding decaying livestock. Kusaka Kabane, a hardworking emotionless outcast child spends his days on the farm of his 'adoptive' host family when one day his host hires Inugami, a supernatural detective to solve the mystery; All trails lead to Kusaka Kabane and he is forced to be put down. Unbeknownst to the host family and Inugami, Kusaka Kabane doesn't want to die; He wants to find his parents who are said to have left him. Will Kusaka be able to realize his wishes or will his demonic powers consume him? Story & Characters: 7/10 6/10 The story is really interesting, the mystery elements threw me off in the beginning and I was genuinely surprised at how well it kept me on edge. The idea of a business that solves paranormal mysteries aren't a new development in anime but I feel the events in Kemono Jihen have substance; The characters are a minority of people with demonic attributes and their task is to coexist with humans from the shadow while also preventing demons from abusing their powers. Each main villian/situation in the series does feel unique but the series tries to infer the power of friendship to forcefully develop a bond between the main kemono child characters. It could have been developed much better but I feel the series compensates for the lack of problem solving dynamic with each of the characters backgrounds. I got so immersed with the character backgrounds because we are initially brought into Inugami's business with a femininely male and a grudging male. As well as the tech-savvy vampire who exploits the kemono like a game. There is a lot of depth behind the character backgrounds and their lack of compatibility helps with their character development. In essence, if the characters didn't have their tantrums and ran away (while also being needed for a mission) this series would easily have been in my top 10 of this year. Art & Sound: 6/10 & 7/10 Nothing too out of the ordinary between the art and animation. They have the typical quality of your average 2020s seasonal anime. The opening track is really catchy and so well orchestrated it's a shame that the quality of music production isn't seen as often throughout the series itself. Overall & Enjoyment: 8/10 Despite its shortcomings, Kemono Jihen is a really playful, dark, dramatic and even comedic play on the demons mystery genre. I like to think it takes some notes from Mob Psycho with its premise. I personally felt this series drew me in in the beginning, had a little boring development midway and kept me hooked till the end.

The feeling of being in a world filled with mystical cryptids and their amalgamation in to the human society with some having knowledge of their existence and most of them not. Imagine Men In Black the movie but with the mythical creatures and monsters. The way that the story handles these themes along with a normal story line where it's a quest for the MC, was and will be common in all shounen series, but the way that this anime is different from them is the way it is easily able to shift it's tone from one episode to another or even within the same episode was a job well done. The art and music are good, giving emphasis on the traits that the creatures have while assuming a human form was done well. Instead of giving a generic do goody MC we have an MC who develops along with the plot with the supporting characters being foundations and pillars for his personality, its good to find that kind of story telling. It is worth a watch and will not definitely be a waste of time.

The anime I'm going to be covering is one of the most underrated in my opinion and I'll be here today to talk about it. As a plot I put 8/10 because if the paranormal genre is practically the same as the others it is still nice to watch in case you like the paranormal and demon genres in which the MC is not necessarily OP. For the art I put 6/10, it is nice to look at but the animations are not the best but not bad either. The op and ed are nice and I entered 7/10. I like the drawings and even the characters very much even if lacking in unique features, with a vote of 8/10. The enjoyment depends from person to person but if you are an average hikikomori you will like it a lot, 8/10. Overall a lower rating because it is still one of the anime in which you have to force yourself at least a minimum to start watching it but it will be worth it, 7/10.

Spoiler-free Review: TLDR: If you watch regular shounen and want more of the same, with a hint of "Oh that was unexpected, didn't think they would go that far with it", this will satisfy you. If you want Demon Slayer-level animation with Fullmetal Alchemist-level story, this will disappoint you. One word to summarize my experience of this show would be "Suprised". When you look at the cover and pictures of this show, it might feel vague or "just your average shounen". What I got upon watching, was a shounen that goes just a little deeper into specific areas that other shows don't care to flesh out. There were a lot of times where I would go "Oh dang I didn't think they would go there!" because it was just a little step above what I was expecting each time. It might have been gore, story maturity, or level of moral dilemma, but every time it happened it made me like the show even more. As for why I rate it an 8 after all that praise, it does have a lot of other "shounen-isms" like too much explanation or way too convenient "helpers" that do make the story cheap and/or unrewarding, but tries to keep a lot of the focus on the dilemma the character is facing, rather than the situation or resulting after-effects, which I believe is the way to go. The strong points of this show for me are its characters and art, while its weaker points would be the little details/story devices. If anything, I would consider this show seinen over shounen if it wasn't for the times where it feels like they were babying the audience.

The advantage of this anime is the interaction between each other that looks like family. And their relationship is not family but just friends and partners. For a studio that I just found out about, the animation is pretty cool and great. They make interesting fight scenes and different from other anime. The opening and outro are really good and cool, the music is also unique and pleasant to hear. In terms of the main characters, there are indeed few in number, but each of them brings out very different and unique characteristics. So it's really interesting to see their interactions together. And of course each of them also has their own story so that it is wide to explore. The more you know the characters, the more beautiful the story becomes. (SPOILER) The ending is indeed hanging but they tease a lot about what will happen next in the next season and that's good because it makes me impatiently waiting for the continuation of the story.

History: 4/10 As for the plot, there is not much to highlight more than the essential, so to speak. The program is presented in a way, giving bases and foundations of what the Kemono world is about and how it develops during its broadcast, but the truth is that it is not used in a good way to take advantage of it. While we have the initiative to discover Kabane's past (like the rest of the cast). The plot does not pose a "real" or tangible objective so that the viewer feels that he is getting ahead of the story, but it seems that everything is as in the beginning (even the epilogue itself tells you) and we have only obtained a development of the characters, but that these are given in a fairly random way and not that it curdles into a Harmony that makes you feel as if everything had coherence and true meaning in the plot. Art 8.5 / 10 Sound: 8.75 / 10 Both sections are very good, both in the cast of selected Seiyuus, they feel very comfortable for the role that each character has to fulfill, while the OP / ED, although I cannot say that they are really epic, meet the necessary requirements. Animation has also been a value of Anime, achieving great settings for all kinds of moments, whether they are dramatic, comic, action, etc. with a good range of colors and fluid movements of the characters. Really satisfied in the 2 sections: Characters: 8/10 Undoubtedly this is the greatest value of this adaptation, the main characters in general may or may not like you due to their stereotypes of personalities but what is largely undeniable is that at least from the 3 protagonist good deep and strong stories are achieved and they make the value of each of these stand out more the program. We also have some secondary characters, who also have a good portion of the screen and manage to get into the affection of the viewer, although I assume that there will be much more to see of these in a possible second season, if it were to happen and it is at least promising since this perspective. Enjoy: 7.5 / 10 Honestly, this Anime seems at least curious to me, between being a group of other programs (such as Mob Psycho / Jibaku Shonen and some other that I will be forgetting for now) and at the same time being able to be something to a certain extent "original" but that I never finish. to close completely, although it had its good moments. In general, it has been a fairly Standard / Acceptable Anime, but without a doubt the most redeemable of the title are the backstories of its characters, which work too well and are worth appreciating. Overall: 7.35 / 10 -------------------------- EN ESPAÑOL -------------------------------- Historia: 4 /10 En cuanto a la trama no hay mucho que destacar mas que lo esencial por así decirlo. El programa se plantea de una manera, dando bases y fundamentos de lo que trata el mundo de los Kemono y como se desarrolla durante la emisión del mismo, pero la verdad es que no se lo utiliza de una manera buena para sacarle el provecho. Si bien tenemos la iniciativa de descubrir el pasado de Kabane (como el resto del elenco). El argumento no plantea un objetivo "verdadero" o tangible para que el espectador sienta que se esta adelantando en la historia, sino que pareciera que todo esta como en el comienzo (inclusive el mismo epilogo te lo dice) y solo hemos obtenido un desarrollo de los personajes, pero que estos se dan de una manera bastante aleatoria y no que cuaje dentro de una Armonía que te haga sentir como si todo tuviera coherencia y sentido verdadero en la trama. Arte 8,5 / 10 Sonido: 8,75 / 10 Ambos apartados muy bueno tanto en elenco de Seiyuus seleccionados se siente muy comodos para el rol que tiene que cumplir cada personajes, en tanto los OP / ED si bien no puedo decir que sean realmente epicos, cumplementen con los requisitos necesarios. La animacion tambien ah sido un valuarte del Anime, logrando grandes ambientaciones para todo tipo de momentos ya sean dramaticos, comicos, accion, etc con una buena gama de colores y movimientos fluidos de los personajes. Realmente satisfechos en los 2 apartados: Personajes: 8 / 10 Sin dudas este es el mayor valor de esta adaptacion, los personajes principales en general podran gustarte o no debido a sus estereotipos de personalidades pero lo que si es en gran parte innegable es que al menos desde el 3 protagonista se consiguen buena historias profundas y fuertes e hacen resaltar mas la valia de cada uno de estos el programa. Tambien tenemos algunos personajes secundarios, que tambien tienen su buena porcion de pantalla y logran meterse en el cariño del espectador, aunque asumo que quedara mucho mas que ver de estos en una posible segunda temporada, si se llegase a dar y es cuanto menos prometedora desde esta perspectiva. Disfrute: 7,5 / 10 Sinceramente me parece cuanto menos curioso este Anime, entre ser un rejunte de otros programas (como Mob Psycho / Jibaku Shonen y algun otro que me estaré olvidando de momento) y a la vez poder ser algo en cierta medida "original" pero que nunca me termino de cerrar del todo, aunque tuvo sus buenos momentos. En general me ah sido un Anime bastante Estándar/Aceptable, pero sin dudas lo mas rescatable del titulo son las historia de fondo de sus personajes, que se las trabaja demasiado bien y valen la pena apreciar. General: 7,35 / 10

Really fun, innit? I don't know, this show just hits me in all the right spots. It has lovable cast of characters. Kabane is really cool. Akira is absolute best girl of 2021. Shiki is absolute best boy of 2021. Inugami. I need more Kabane x Kon in my life. What else is there not to love? Oh, and the fights are all really good, they all work well in developing the characters taking part. The animation is swift with rarely any botches. The soundtrack is alright, but I enjoyed this anime so much. What more do you want me to say? Really fun, innit?

Review of kemono jihen anime episode 12: Its now the last episode, episode 12, and its good.. after a fierce fight between nobimaru and yui, nobimaru stood no chance against yui, but was saved by kabane at the last minute.. then with kabane entrusting with nobimarus plan, he sets himself on fire so that he can counter the almost impenetrable ice, and until yuis energy runs out.. then as they emerged victorious, akira was also able to escape his cage, and both akira and kabane got the null stone out of yui together.. well, the anime itself is really good in story, and there is also a hint about an incoming season 2! tho the question is when will it air? Since kabanes case might be the biggest they would handle.. anyways, i rate the anime a 4.5 out of 5, 4.5 for story and 5 for art.. 🙂 https://www.facebook.com/talk.anichan/posts/2198975616903133

I don't remember how I stumbled upon Kemono Jihen, but I'm really glad I did. There's something about the storytelling, the very human touches, how naturally the characters interact with each other, that really shines in this anime. Everything about the anime is above average and very intentional, and you can tell that the animation studio put their best foot forward in adapting the manga. Kemono Jihen isn't the flashiest anime out there, but what it does do is tell engrossing, thoughtful, sometimes dark, sometimes uplifting stories about young characters who are still learning about themselves, their relationships with others, and the world. Cannot recommend enough.

This one was alright -- I liked the main character but his growth ironically felt a bit too fast and therefore undeserved. I say that because the show spent, at least in my opinion, a lot of time on its episodic cases which, in the way that it was handled, took away from the characters a lot of the time. There was some notable character development I enjoyed though, I especially loved the first two episodes. I also loved the mentor/detective and I enjoyed the main character as a whole. Another pretty decent series, though I’m not sure that it was anything noteworthy. I could potentially like this series a lot more in season 2 if it gets released.

A real surprise in a season from which I expected absolutely nothing. I watched Kemono Jihen when it was released without high expectations. You know that anime you start almost by chance, just to pass the time? That's exactly how it was for me. At first, because of the darker and more mysterious atmosphere, I thought the work would follow a more psychological horror or suspense approach, something similar to Another. However, as the episodes progressed, I realized that the anime had a completely different premise, and honestly, that ended up surprising me quite a bit. In reality, Kemono Jihen mixes supernatural investigation, action, and elements of Japanese folklore in a very interesting way. The vibe of the work reminded me a lot of Hunter x Hunter, mainly because of the sense of adventure, the main group of characters, and the way the universe gradually expands. But here everything revolves around yokai, spirits, and supernatural creatures inspired by Japanese legends. And that's easily one of the anime's greatest strengths: the universe. I honestly don't recall watching many anime that dealt so directly with this type of theme involving Japanese folklore creatures. Each new case presented brings a different concept, a new creature, or a new curse, which keeps the narrative constantly interesting. It's clear that there's enormous potential in this world created by the work, because the universe seems gigantic and full of possibilities for future stories. Furthermore, the anime manages to balance light and fun moments very well with more serious and even melancholic situations. Although the characters' visuals have a more "cute" or even chibi style at times, the story addresses relatively heavy themes involving abandonment, loneliness, prejudice, and identity. This mix of visual innocence with darker themes creates a very interesting contrast. The protagonist Kabane also helps a lot with this. He's that extremely apathetic character at the beginning, almost emotionless, but who gradually learns about friendship, companionship, and human feelings. It's really cool to follow his evolution and the dynamic with the rest of the group. In fact, the interactions between the characters are one of the most fun parts of the anime. There's a very natural chemistry between them, which makes several simple moments quite charismatic. Another detail I really liked was how the work manages to create a constant supernatural atmosphere without necessarily relying on horror. The anime works much more with mystery and curiosity than with fear itself. You want to keep watching to discover more about that universe, about the creatures, and about the characters themselves. Regarding the animation, it's only average. It's not a visually impressive anime, nor does it have absurd combat scenes like current big productions, but it doesn't compromise the experience either. The studio manages to deliver competent sequences and a visual direction that combines well with the supernatural atmosphere of the work. It fulfills its necessary role without major problems. The soundtrack also greatly helps with the atmosphere, especially in the more mysterious scenes. It contributes to giving the anime that constant feeling of urban fantasy mixed with Japanese folklore. Overall, Kemono Jihen was a much more positive experience than I imagined. Perhaps it's not a revolutionary anime or something that will completely change your view of the supernatural shonen genre, but it's still a very fun, creative work that's different from the more common standard. The anime's greatest merit lies precisely in its premise. It manages to present an interesting universe, charismatic characters, and a supernatural system full of potential without overcomplicating the narrative. It's the perfect type of anime to watch without any expectations and end up being surprised by its quality. Perhaps it lacks a greater impact at certain moments or a more ambitious production to elevate the work to another level, but even so, Kemono Jihen delivers a very enjoyable experience for those who like supernatural action, yokai, and adventures with a lighter touch. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for something different within the genre. Rating: 7/10. =================================================================================================================Versão em Português===================================== Uma verdadeira surpresa em uma temporada da qual eu não esperava absolutamente nada. Assisti Kemono Jihen na época do lançamento sem grandes expectativas. Sabe aquele anime que você começa quase por acaso, apenas para passar o tempo? Foi exatamente assim comigo. No início, pela atmosfera mais sombria e misteriosa, achei que a obra seguiria uma pegada mais voltada para terror psicológico ou suspense, algo parecido com Another. Porém, conforme os episódios avançavam, fui percebendo que o anime tinha uma proposta completamente diferente, e sinceramente, isso acabou me surpreendendo bastante. Na realidade, Kemono Jihen mistura investigação sobrenatural, ação e elementos do folclore japonês de uma forma muito interessante. A vibe da obra me lembrou bastante Hunter x Hunter, principalmente pela sensação de aventura, pelo grupo principal de personagens e pela maneira como o universo vai se expandindo aos poucos. Só que aqui tudo gira em torno de yokais, espíritos e criaturas sobrenaturais inspiradas em lendas japonesas. E esse é facilmente um dos maiores pontos fortes do anime: o universo. Eu sinceramente não me recordo de ter assistido muitos animes que trabalhassem tão diretamente com esse tipo de temática envolvendo criaturas folclóricas japonesas. Cada novo caso apresentado traz algum conceito diferente, uma nova criatura ou uma nova maldição, o que deixa a narrativa constantemente interessante. Dá para perceber claramente que existe um potencial enorme nesse mundo criado pela obra, porque o universo parece gigantesco e cheio de possibilidades para futuras histórias. Além disso, o anime consegue equilibrar muito bem momentos leves e divertidos com situações mais sérias e até melancólicas. Apesar do visual dos personagens ter um estilo mais “fofo” ou até meio chibi em alguns momentos, a história aborda temas relativamente pesados envolvendo abandono, solidão, preconceito e identidade. Essa mistura de inocência visual com temas mais sombrios cria um contraste bem interessante. O protagonista Kabane também ajuda bastante nisso. Ele é aquele personagem extremamente apático no início, quase sem emoções, mas que aos poucos vai aprendendo sobre amizade, companheirismo e sentimentos humanos. É muito legal acompanhar a evolução dele e a dinâmica com o restante do grupo. Inclusive, as interações entre os personagens são uma das partes mais divertidas do anime. Existe uma química muito natural entre eles, o que faz vários momentos simples se tornarem bastante carismáticos. Outro detalhe que gostei bastante foi como a obra consegue criar um clima sobrenatural constante sem necessariamente depender de terror. O anime trabalha muito mais com mistério e curiosidade do que com medo propriamente dito. Você quer continuar assistindo para descobrir mais sobre aquele universo, sobre as criaturas e sobre os próprios personagens. Em relação à animação, dá para dizer que ela é apenas mediana. Não é um anime visualmente impressionante nem possui cenas absurdas de combate como grandes produções atuais, mas também não compromete a experiência. O estúdio consegue entregar sequências competentes e uma direção visual que combina bem com o clima sobrenatural da obra. Cumpre o papel necessário sem grandes problemas. A trilha sonora também ajuda bastante na ambientação, principalmente nas cenas mais misteriosas. Ela contribui para deixar o anime com aquela sensação constante de fantasia urbana misturada com folclore japonês. No geral, Kemono Jihen foi uma experiência muito mais positiva do que eu imaginav…

I bet it you watch Kemono Jihen just because you curios what this story about. And the series successfully keep you engage because they give out reason to us viewer to see it through Kabane story to find out about his parents. The story development in this series seems natural every supporting cast have their reason to be appear in the story. Kabane and his friends is only children maybe they understand something but they are not adult. They lack of experienced and will only keep growing especially Kabane who never get attention from adult during his young age. We see Kabane as empty vessel try to fill his empty space and Inugami is the reason Kabane want to start fill his heart. The feeling of love and not being abandoned by his parents gives Kabane and us viewer a reason to finish this series. There is still a lot of mystery that haven't been discussed in this series. Like the evolution of Kabane necklace. The history of Inugami and Inari. What Shiki try to accomplished now by stay behind. How Kabane will find his parents. Will Kon become more mature in the future and other things. I just hope if this series get season 2 they will explained everything until the story finished. In conclusion this series is good because they have essential formula that keep us viewer want to engage to this series. Kabane is adorable and we want to know how he will grow up in the future. Inugami is rather unique, what his back story and why he want to help Kabane, Shiki and Akira. But this series is not perfect it is lack of antagonist of series, especially for shonen series. The ending is not very clear, will it end when Kabane find out about his parent or something else. I hope this series get better in the future.
