Review of Casshern Sins

This anime DEFINITELY isn´t for everyone. Most anime involve stories that feature self-insert characters, action, comedy - simply stuff to have fun watching. Well, I definitely enjoyed watching Casshern Sins, though I have to admit, in the beginning it was a little hard to stick with. The whole ambience of the world that is visualized for us in this anime is very gloomy, cold, dystopian. The anime is very slow paced and has long periods without dialogue. It´s probably a lot easier to watch one episode per day, but of course I needed the full experience and watched episode after episode. Those are all thethings that made the experience... difficult in the beginning. However continuing to watch the anime, the plot and story developed amazingly. Casshern Sins is VERY philosophical. It has been compared to a lot of philosophical shows, it basically discusses the human will to live, as well as a few other things every episode. Since Madhouse produced this anime, it is blessed with amazing art and animation, not to forget music and soundtracks. The anime has one of my favorite endings of all time. It will literally change the way you think, if you haven´t thought that way already. ;)
