Izumo - Episode 2

Foreign World


No one seems to be blogging this show and I did not write much down last time either...so:

The opening song is okay, the ending horrible! It must be sung by the seiyuus themselves...or perhaps just by people they picked randomly at the street; I don't know and...exactly I don't wanna know! All in all the soundtrack is interesting, to be honest so terrible and unfitting...I like it!

Animation in the first episode was good and this time I thought it was...but watching all shows on the TV screen is tricky. When I did the screenshots I recognized actually how deformed the characters look most of the time and the backgrounds were disappointing...too neon green.

The story is a mixture of El Hazard (the bugs), Magic Knight Rayearth (called by the pretty hime), Fushigi Yuugi (two heros who are destined to fight on two sides against each other), Lord of the Rings (there were chinese looking Ringwraiths, hontou) and Star Wars (those nazgul had Light Sabers in the end).
The only idea new to me what I like a lot is the reincarnation of dead souls in the other world.

This show is nothing that would hook me if I knew I had to watch 13 wpisodes in a row, but still I'm interested and as it's only one episode a week, i will keep watching...I'm just in the mood to blogg each and every single (almost) show of this season.

I'm blogging it, at least, but yeah, I don't think anyone else is (Moyism was going to, but you know how is backlog is...)

I agree the show isn't a complete stand-out, but it could be worse. Good luck on blogging it (and all the other shows out there!)
