Editor's Review
“Kuromukuro” is an anime series that beautifully blends elements of action, drama, and sci-fi. The series revolves around the life of Jin Kamashina, a young man who witnesses his family’s deaths as their space shuttle gets blown to bits by a mysterious falling object from space. The main plot then follows an older Jin as he gets thrust into a world of government secrets concerning “dragons”, envoys sent by a living asteroid… thing called Thanatos floating around the remains of Pluto.
The anime is characterized by its distinctive animation style. The concept of dragons adds an element of mystery and intrigue to the storyline. However, the series has been criticized for its execution and pacing. Despite these criticisms, the anime does not lack originality.
One of the most compelling aspects of “Kuromukuro” is the exploration of the conflict between humans and dragons. This conflict forms the crux of the series and drives the narrative forward. Despite its potential, “Kuromukuro” has been criticized for its lack of depth in character development. The series often resorts to clichéd tropes and fails to fully explore the implications of its premise.
Despite its shortcomings, “Kuromukuro” is filled with enough mystery and intrigue that leaves viewers wanting more. The series is a rare example of an anime of such high quality that takes as many risks as “Kuromukuro” does. It’s so rare to see an anime of such high quality to take as many risks as “Kuromukuro” does. Sure it stumbles a bit along the way, but the final result is undeniably an ambitious and thoroughly entertaining ride worth watching.
In conclusion, “Kuromukuro” is an anime that offers a unique premise and engaging elements of action and mystery. While it may not stand out in the crowded field of action anime, it is worth watching for its unique concept and appealing animation style. However, viewers should not expect the same level of depth and complexity found in other anime series.
