EPISODE REVIEWS
Really sets the tone for the series right from the get go. There's a moral dilemma that is allowed to breathe by the episode instead of rushing through it. It's patient in its storytelling with a strong feeling of atmosphere throughout.
Great series opener, sets the tone perfectly. Everyone expects a lawless hellhole, but the twist on what 'no murder law' actually means is genuinely clever. Kino and Hermes' banter is already so charming. Excellent, thought-provoking start.
What an interesting introduction to the anime. The pacing is slow, but it's not boring at all. The animation is also good since I think this is a remake of the original one. There's still a lot of information missing in this first episode, and I'm still wondering why a motorcycle is talking 🤣.
