Review of K

K is by no means a masterpiece but at the same time it isn't as bad as some people are making out to be. I personally think that K completed the plot its based around its own little world pretty well. Isana Yashiro is a soft and an adolescent teenager who lives on his own and is always active with his friends around the campus. However he soon finds himself chased down by the infamous gang named "HOMRA" who are the clansmen for the Red King. In the anime, seven kings or rulers are portrayed who have their own persona and supernatural powers. From theimpeccable Silver King, to the inferior Colorless King, the series focuses mostly on the Red King and the Blue King. So after the murder of one of the members of the HOMRA gang namely of "Totsuka Tatara", a video tape is left behind which point out the seemingly innocent Isana Yashiro as the culprit. It also happens to be that Isana Yashiro isn't quite as the person he seems to be, as he has little to no memory of his own past. K follows the story of the Red King and the HOMRA members seeking their revenge of the murder of one of their members, to the Blue King and their clansmen trying to stop the inevitable battle that will shake the order among the seven kings and to reveal the true identity of Shiro aka Isana Yashiro.

K has quite an unique blend of characters, with Kuroh Yatagami, the student of the former Colorless King who is in the search for the person who is to become the next Colorless King, and to reach a decision whether the new Colorless King is worthy enough of the throne. He also has the job given by his former master as to decide whether the new Colorless King is good or evil, and if he's the former, Kuroh is to slay him right there. Coming to a decision that Shiro is the new Colorless King from the video tape that surfaced featuring Shiro shooting Totsuka Tatara, Shiro now has to explain that he's innocent. Shiro is shown as a silly yet simple and also a very mysterious character who is in search of what truly is he, along with Neko, a cat which possesses some magical powers.

From the beautiful melody tones inserted into each episodes and a good voice acting work done, K tops the sound aspect very well. Angela is an extremely talented singer and it's evident from the lovely opening theme.

GoHands has a reputation for creating a beautiful piece of art and K adds to that reputation. K is a burst of attractive colors and a ravishing artsyle that truly makes K a masterpiece when you talk about the artwork. It's one of best anime around in recent times if you consider the art of it, and for the same reason I can't stop but wonder why the studio has made very less anime's of the same type. Personally I really enjoyed K and I'll say that it's worth giving a watch. The story is well brought together which makes for a good watch and a nice ending.
