Editor's Review
“07-Ghost” is an anime based on a fantasy action manga by Yuki Amemiya and Yukino Ichihara. The anime is set in the same universe as Bleach but in a parallel dimension of London, where dragons exist alongside witches who combat them. It was released as a 25-episode series in 2009 and follows the story of Teito Klein, a former slave who discovers his hidden power and destiny.
“07-Ghost” is an intriguing and thrilling anime that blends action, comedy, and drama. The characters are charismatic, well-developed, and share good chemistry among themselves. The anime also delves into the universe and mythology of dragons and witches, which are creative and original. It boasts high-quality animation, an engaging soundtrack, and excellent voice acting. Additionally, it makes references and connections to Bleach, which could please fans of Amemiya and Ichihara’s previous work.
However, “07-Ghost” also has some drawbacks. The anime can be very confusing, leaving many questions unanswered. Its pacing is irregular, and at times, it seems to lack depth and development for certain aspects of the story and characters. It might also be challenging for viewers unfamiliar with Bleach as it doesn’t explain some concepts and terms adequately. Furthermore, the anime contains some clichés and predictabilities that could diminish the impact and originality of the work.
In conclusion, “07-Ghost” is an anime worth watching, especially for action and Bleach enthusiasts. It presents an engaging story, charismatic characters, and a rich and imaginative universe. The anime’s technical production enhances the quality of the work. However, it suffers from issues related to confusion, pacing, depth, and explanation, which might affect the viewer’s experience and satisfaction. “07-Ghost” has the potential to be much more and deserves a continuation.
