Rakshasa Street · review
Zhen Hun Jie (Rakshasa Street) retaught me the meaning of ugly crying. If you have to watch a Chinese/Korean anime series for the Anime Watching Challenge, take a chance on this one, honest. Story: 8 for Very Good. As was said, the episodes are short but the story still progresses, with a plot and a sub-plot that are both engaging. Both with twists, both easy to understand with a bit of thought. Art: 6 for Fair. Nothing too memorable. The 3D and 2D animation together: that needed some work.Sound: 8 for Very Good.
Giving this an 8 for the soundtrack. I loved the music, especially through the title sequences. It really makes the anime and the tone.
Character: 7 for Good.
I feel like everyone was pretty three-dimensional. The characters are able to recognize their own flaws and each others'. The brothers shone here: lovely characters, especially Yanbing (I'm pretty sure that's his name.)
I didn't like the design for the evil spirits. They looked like robots and I didn't get that at all.
Enjoyment: 7 for Good.
I did enjoy watching this one. Most of the time, I was engaged.
Overall: 8 for Very Good.
Basically, the story is a good one. The animation needs some work but if they're working on a small budget then that's anticipated. I recommend this series and I'm glad I watched it.
