Ajin: Demi-Human Movie 1: Compel · review

9 /10

So...here it comes, the movie for the much awaited Ajin. Personally, I've been waiting for this for a very long time. I have not read the manga (yet) and have not watched the anime yet (airing now). Story 9/10: The movie introduces the concept/world of Ajin, where some random humans happen to develop a mysterious super power, causing them many troubles and raising the ultimate anime question: "Am I still human?". Doesn't sound very original, right? We have seen this in many other animes like Ergo proxy, Parasyte, Tokyo Ghoul, etc... However, the storytelling of Ajin is what makes it very enjoyable. It is very dynamic, there isno unnecessary information in it. Hopefully they will keep it filler-free for the upcoming anime too.

Characters 8/10:
The characters are pretty much the standard arch-types for this movie. The "friend", the "Organisation", "the weak point" - the sister, in this case, the "veteran" and so on.
They seem to all have a background story that is not explained in detail due to the length of the movie. Hopefully, we will see their stories later on.

Art 3/10:

*heavy breathing* Well...when I first saw the teaser, I just had to do a facepalm. The CGI does not fit this show (or any show for that matter).
Despite all of that, I must say, I still really enjoyed the film overall, due to the amazing story and execution.

Overall 9/10:

A very generic topic executed in a wonderful, very enjoyable way. Graphics could certainly be better but what can we do?
I definitely look forward to the anime series!
