Review of Casshern Sins

If you are familiar with Neon Genesis, then you should probably understand this somewhat of a deconstruction anime which features a sad cruel world worthy of a post anime depression syndrome. While its predecessor was focus on a power ranger plot, this one is a whole different story, in which, the protagonist is wandering in seach for someone in a desolated world. You see a beautiful scenery at times due to its great animation, but this would make you even sadder since there is a lots of variety of deserts and grey colors show throughout to indicate: this is not about happiness. To top it off, ithas very good soundtracks which eludes a feeling of hope even though both robots and humans of the world are constantly dying while the ones still living are struggling to survive. This sort of show appeals to me due to its focus on storytelling and a consistent throughout. There are fight scenes, but even these are not as great compare to the popular series of its time. Its mainly the fact that it explores characters desires and goals and in the end, you realized there is not real antagonist.

In conclusion, if you are able to shoulder the emotion of sadness and tragedy while looking for good storytelling, this is one worth watching.
