Anime Review: Zetsuen no Tempest
This anime series consists of 24 episodes. This series feels really dragged, like when they emphasis on a certain area too much? But at the same time, you wouldn't know what happened if you missed an episode. What drove me to watch this anime was probably because of how the anime characters look, plus point there. The art is absolutely beautiful. I can't pull myself to watch a particular anime regardless how good the story line is, unless they have good looking characters. This makes it tough for me to find a suitable anime that I like.
This anime will definitely mind-fuck you at many levels. This series is full of mystery and twists that you will have never expected. There also many flashbacks. The story line was there but the execution wasn't great either.
Surprisingly, the one who defeats the antagonist is a secondary character who appears in the later episodes. You would have expected either one of the main characters to be more "powerful", i would say.
As for romance, they could perfected it a little more. Come on, everybody likes a ending that ends with a passionate kiss. HAHA *typical girl alert*
Synopsis:
The story revolves around Mahiro Fuwa, a teenager whose family was mysteriously murdered one year before and his friend Yoshino Takigawa. Mahiro is contacted by Hakase Kusaribe, the leader of the Kusaribe clan who was left stranded on an unknown desert island by her followers, and agrees to help Hakase in exchange of her help to find out the culprit for the death of his family. Upon learning of his friend's intentions, Yoshino joins him on his quest to stand against the Kusaribe clan who intends to awake the "Tree of Zetsuen" whose power can bring ruin to the entire world.
Several dialogues and plot elements in Zetsuen no Tempest pay homage to the works of William Shakespeare. (Taken off kissanime.com, you can watch your anime there)
P.S This review is what I think.
