Synopsis
Kohachi Inugami, a detective who specializes in the occult, arrives at a remote village in the Japanese countryside, tasked by a hostess at a local inn to investigate a string of incidents involving rotting and mutilated livestock corpses that have been appearing for seemingly no reason. While surveying, Inugami notices a peculiar young boy working in the fields. Evaded by his peers and called "Dorotabou" for his stench, the young farmhand is surprised that anybody would take an interest in him. Inugami, piqued with curiosity, enlists Dorotabou in helping him with the investigation, despite scorned looks from the villagers. Unbeknownst to Dorotabou, this investigation will reveal a strange new world to him—one of the beast-like entities known as Kemono existing in tandem with humans—along with breathing new purpose into his previously empty life.

Jujur aja dari judul dan sinopsis awalnya tidak terlalu tertarik dan bakal ngira ini plotnya sama seperti anime tentang kemono atau shikigami lainnya. Ternyata pembawaan cerita dan konsepnya sangat berbeda dan unik jadi tidak terasa seperti anime pasaran. Konklusi yang cukup puas untuk season pertamanya, semoga season keduanya bisa cepat tayang karena masih penasaran dengan dunia nya Kabane. Animenya keren abiss!
Oke ternyata di review episode sebelumnya gw salah. Yui marahnya bisa dimaklumin sih, jadi kita lihat dulu kelanjutannya gimana. Pacing nya pas, informasi yang dikasih tidak terlalu cepat. Ga sabar untuk episode terakhirnya.
Ga semua reuni itu bakal lancar dan tanpa masalah. Kalimat yang cocok untuk episode ini, karena berbeda dengan Shiki yang penyebabnya adalah pamannya. Reuni Akira dengan kakaknya tidak berjalan dengan baik. Keren sih direksinya tapi pacingnya terlalu cepat sih build up dengan kakanya Akira.
Kon kali ini momen nya manis banget dia ga ngerti perasaan cemburu jadi sedikit impulsif pendekatannya sampe mau gigit Aya. Episode romance dikit-dikit gini jadi pelengkap banget untuk anime dan emang dibutuhin. Tapi itu outfitnya Aya sedikit berlebihan untuk anak 8 tahun, harusnya lebih tertutup lagi pakaiannya.
Thrill nya berasa banget, Akio sebagai karakter villain nih bener-bener ngejalanin perannya dengan baik. Tegang banget nonton episode ini karena direksi nya keren banget, mereka bawa elemen horror dan thriller nya bagus. Perkembangan Kabane sebagai karakter juga keliatan, perasaan membantu temannya semakin kuat dan Shiki juga belajar untuk tidak dibutakan oleh amarah.
Episode ini beda dari yang lain karena rasanya sangat menyeramkan ngeliat masa lalu dari Shiki yang sangat kelam. Karena sangat berbeda jadi membuat ini episode terbaik sejauh ini, karena setting dunia yang penuh monster ga mungkin bahagia dan monoton terus. Elemen seperti ini juga dibutuhin dan dibawakan dengan baik oleh anime ini.
Konklusi dari kasus perusahaan dan kemono nyamuk, disini Mihai memberi tips yang menjadi sumber dari kekuatan baru Kabane. Terus ada momen Kabane yang ketemu Kon lagi dan disitu sangat manis dan menyentuh hati ngeliat betapa polosnya Kon. Tapi kalimat "bake-kitsune" bikin sedikit overthinking Kon ini di pihak mana.
Perkenalan karakter Mihai ni peak banget, untuk sekarang jadi karakter favorit sih. Sifatnya yang seenaknya karena dia kuat dan seorang vampir itu menarik banget. Terus interaksi Kon dan Kabane nih imut banget, keduanya kurang dalam hal komunikasi tapi itu yang membuat sinergi nya unik dan lucu. Keren sih episode ini.
Episode kali ini ada dua kasus kemono yang diselesaikan oleh kelompok Kabane, tapi yang paling menarik adalah saat Akira mengeluarkan kekuatannya yang ternyata kuat tapi terhalang oleh sifatnya yang tidak tahan dengan hal menjijikan. Overall keren episode ini.
Banyak hal yang tidak disangka terjadi di episode ini dan perkenalan dua karakter baru yang unik. Komedi yang diselipkan ditengah ketegangan juga terasa pas jadi rasanya natural. Paling shock pasti momen Shiki ngelempar Kabane itu absurd banget. Episode mantab.
Setelah sebelumnya perkenalan dunia, sekarang perkenalan kekuatan dari karakternya. Disini baru kekuatan Kabane dan Shiki yang diperlihatkan sedikit dan pasti bukan kekuatan penuhnya. Pacingnya pas dan penjelasannya ga terlalu ribet jadi nyaman untuk ditonton.
Episode pertama yang cukup bagus, perkenalan tentang dunia nya juga dibikin singkat dan sesederhana mungkin jadi tidak terlalu banyak informasi yang harus diproses oleh penonton.
This anime ends with a nice conclusion to Akira and Yui's story while also setting up the next adventure. In many ways, though, the entire season feels more like a prologue than a complete story. Most of the arcs are focused on introducing the main cast and developing their individual backgrounds. Meanwhile, the central mystery surrounding Kabane's parents only starts to take shape near the very end . It's a works well for a long-running series or a two-cour anime. but unfortunately this is only a one-cour anime, and a second season still hasn't been announce. That said, it's still a good anime. The cast is likable, the character-focused arcs are enjoyable, and the world has enough mysteries to keep things interesting. Even if it feels incomplete, I had a good time watching it.
A really tense episode. The backstory surrounding Akira, Yui, and the Yuki-onna village was particularly interesting. I also liked how the episode continued developing Kabane, setting up some major revelations regarding his family and the connection to the lifestones. The finale setup is strong, with multiple plot threads converging at once. My only complaint is the lack of Kon, I really hope we get to see her again before the end. Overall, a solid penultimate episode
This was an interesting episode because it builds up for a season 2. If feels like a conclusion to us getting to know our current characters while introducing us to the next story. I would love to see what happens. Though, the big issues I have with this show is how the children are treated especially with some overly sexualize depictions to most trauma having SA. I can see how nuanced it is but I feel that there isn't much done to show the ongoing effects of it. I like the world and the interesting characters. [8.61/10]
Trigger warning for many, CSA. This just gets worse. I knew that the twins dad was being used but to think that they would do that to a child is another level of disgusting. The number of times SA being used is kind of concerning but it's not a shock. I'm curious to see what the nullstone has to do with Kabane's stone.
We've been needing an Akira episode especially with the insane growth of Shiki and Kabane. I appreciate that Akira's strengths are things we don't get to see when watching the show because it focuses on the fighting. Though, I'm curious to hear what happened to their village.
Okay, whoever thought Aya should dress like that needs jail time. Like she could've easily had the leggings style that Kon has but noooo, put an 8 year old in a tube top. Other than that choice, this was the romance episode where every character is on the romance train. Not much for plot but something for character growth
Okay, the horror has gone up a noch. It's one thing to ask for assistance, it's another to take advantage of someone. Akio really is using 'they're your family' stunt. The story is heart warming but the animation was lacking in a few parts.
This had amazing story writing but it was horrifying to witness. Time and time again, we witness the children in this show be mistreated by the adults in their lives. Many of which using them for their greed. This episode was stomach churning so for those who are sensitive to SA be cautious.
