Review of How to Keep a Mummy
Hey folks, this will be a review for Miira no Kaikata. Have you ever heard someone say something was so sweet that it gave them diabetes? Well this show might actually be sweet enough to do that. The story revolves around a group of kids from high school who have this ability to see special creatures. Each character has their own creature that they take care of and they spend their days living their lives with them. The art was fitting and the soundtrack and VA was great. The characters are a great part of the show. Each one has their own personality but they have agood group dynamic and don't feel like they are overshadowed by another. To add on to that, they each are joined by a creature which has their own personality.
However with all that being said this show isn't about the story, the characters, or anything else really. Its just to enjoy. The show is remarkably cute. I've never been a huge fan of shows that straight up aim for the "aww effect" but this one seems well done. The creatures feel real and don't feel like mascots thrown at you to sell something. The show is slow paced and is gentle to watch, but doesn't become boring or tedious. They try to spice up the ending side of the show which was unnecessary. The world building also has some questionable elements, but again it doesn't matter.
If you like shows with plots, or some manner of reasoning to their actions this isn't for you. However if you want something to relax and let yourself go into this is a great show.
