First Episode(s) Review for: Noragmi
Summary:
A young down on his luck homeless God or as he calls himself “A delivery God” is struggling his way though life, till he is saved from a passing bus by a young girl, the incident gives the girl the ability to leave her body, something she wants fixed, enter the world of street level small gods and their regalia
Animation:
Good high detail animation the kind I associated with high action anime (I wonder if they get slowed down a lot and replayed one frame at a time), very nice and clear with excellent use of colour such as pastels at emotional times and mono chrome on the opening sequence
Plot Potential:
I have a week spot of any story to do with gods but this has tons of potential but currently no direction so I think it MIGHT be a great series, as long as the opportunity it has is not wasted.
Music:
Hooray the first MP3 player worthy opening theme this season, the rest of the music in this series is a bit ho-hum
Reminds me of:
bit of Yozakura Quartet bit of XxxHolic
Overall:
So its basically the life of a street gang but in the supernatural world, good stuff, the characters are nothing new, but its still very much worth watching especially if the plot lives up to its potential.
