Editor's Review
“D.Gray-man” is a captivating anime series that delves into the world of exorcists and supernatural entities. The series, written and illustrated by Katsura Hoshino, is set in an alternate 19th century.
The story revolves around a young man named Allen Walker, who joins an organization of exorcists known as the Black Order. The members of the Black Order use an ancient substance, Innocence, to combat a man known as the Millennium Earl and his demonic army of Akuma who intend to destroy humanity.
Allen Walker is not your typical protagonist. He wields the power of “Innocence” to fight against the Millennium Earl. His adventures take him through various trials and tribulations, as he battles against the Akuma and uncovers the mysteries of the Innocence.
The narrative is dark and intense, highlighting the constant struggle between good and evil. The series is noted for its dark narrative; Hoshino once rewrote a scene she thought too violent for her young readers.
Despite the grim circumstances, Allen and his comrades in the Black Order stand firm in their resolve to protect humanity from the Akuma. Their shared experiences and collective struggle for survival forge an unbreakable bond between them.
The anime is visually striking, featuring original character designs by Katsura Hoshino. The atmospheric soundtrack further enhances the series’ intense and somber mood.
“D.Gray-man” is not just an anime; it’s an exploration of resilience, courage, and friendship in the face of adversity. It’s a must-watch for anyone interested in thought-provoking narratives and storytelling.
