    Pokemon for adults

    The show is pretty much pokemon geared toward adults. The only differences are that Daemon are treated cruel while pokemon are loved and adored. I love how in this show the main character actually has a meaningful goal he is trying to achieve unlike Ash Ketchum who's a poke trainer simply to become the best.

    The graphics in this show are top tier, I love the storyline and gore but my favorite aspect is how conflicted the show made me feel about the main villain Daemon. What the villain Daemon wants is clearly wrong but given what humans have done to Daemon, are the Villains motives justified? Is the villain really a villain? What would you do and how would you act if you experienced the treatment that the Daemon did?... Food for thought.

    Discovering 'My Daemon': A Journey from Doubt to Devotion

    My initial experience with 'My Daemon' was tinged with skepticism. At first glance, the series seemed to me like a marketing parody of Pokémon wrapped in a veil of dark fantasy. However, I'm pleased to admit my preconceptions were misplaced. Although the beginning didn't fully capture my attention, the plot progressively intensified, awakening a growing interest to continue the journey.

    The protagonist's journey, set in a post-apocalyptic world populated by Pokémon-style creatures, becomes increasingly serious and complex. It's true that the anime initially lacks a touch of epicness, and some characters may seem superficial or one-dimensional. However, as the story unfolds, we encounter more profound and three-dimensional characters, aware of the repercussions of their actions.

    'My Daemon' is a blend of positive and negative elements that together form an absorbing experience. Although I'd love to delve deeper into the aspects I enjoy most about this work and those I consider flaws, doing so would mean revealing too much of the plot, and it's not my intention to spoil the surprise.

    In summary, I highly recommend giving this series a chance. Despite a start that might not be entirely convincing, 'My Daemon' promises an exciting and nuanced journey. You won't regret embarking on this attempt at a "realistic" voyage through a devastated world.

    Great character development and plot

    Although this isn't my typical animation style, the lovable characters along with the breathtaking, fast paced storyline definitely reeled me in. Be prepared to binge watch and to feel for the characters. Kleenex and snacks are a must. They did a great job in lining up the plot for multiple seasons. The animation was detailed and pleasing. The voice actors did a fantastic job at matching the characters' experiences. It is worth watching for any anime fan. The story is a bit dark, so I felt the assigned rating was appropriate. Great job all around

    I am looking forward to seeing if there will be a season 2!

    so deep and great

    Please make a season 2 i never thought that this kind of series would be so deep the adventure of the character and anna is very deep i would realy like to see a season 2 The characters and writing of the series were really deep Well done, to whoever made this series please I would be very happy to see season 2 of the series. People, if you like this series, please wrigth something good so they could do Season 2. It reminds me a bit of Pokemon but it's different a bit because it's not exactly the same there's a bit of distortion a bit but overall a series that is really worth seeing I personally couldn't stop watching this series for hours I I saw the whole series in one fell swoop without taking a break it was so good and hope that Netflix will actually do a second season because it's really worth it.

    Beautiful on the inside and outside.

    Heartfelt and powerful at times, each moment left me wanting more. The fact I started watching this and then cancelled my plans for the rest of the day to binge watch the whole season shows how I was pulled into this world. Great voice acting (English dubbed) and a visual treat, the storyline was one of sadness, laughter, desperation, but mostly hope. Sure, it was strange that the daemon appeared to be named after the only spoken word they each could say (think Pokémon), yet it also brought a childlike innocence to the creatures that fought against the public's perception of them within the majority of the story.

    I'm unsure is a second season is needed or justified as this season alone told a beautiful tale. Yet I wanted this world to continue and to be able to watch characters develop further. Overall I highly recommend My Daemon.
