We can feel the dark and intense tone right from the beginning. It sets up my mood for the whole film. The animation is unique. It uses a distinct style that really fits the tension of the scenes. The pace is frantic and keeps you guessing at every turn. This actually never gives you a chance to catch your breath. I felt a constant sense of dread and suspense. And this is what that makes it worth watching.
The movie is fast paced thriller, really compressed the whole thing in a movie. It also skipped the deep lore for straight action imo. It focused on basic history without digging into why Ajin even exist in the first place. The storyline is pretty cool that I didn't realized that almost 2 hrs have passed and that's the ending??? but the stiff animation particularly when characters talk was kinda distracting. But ngl, I suprisingly like that it left me with tons of questions like what happen to Kai, wth is up with Eri's attitude toward Kei, what is Kei actual deal, etc.? It definitely hooks me to keep watching to find out what happens next.
