As the title says i cried watching this anime. It was truly a story that I didnt expect to see and I'm really glad I got to experience it. I didn't like the artstyle at first but after some time I started to really enjoy how it played into the story. Theres a lot of symbolism here. Aside from the obvious demons I'd like to point out how running plays an important role in this whole anime. Going in i thought it would be just a demon fighting anime and i ended up genuinely crying by the end. Humanity is shown so raw here. So many impurities on display I genuinely wanted to look away. I strted to wonder... If the demons were the ones we should be afraid of.
Okay so, this series is UNHINGED!! Explaining the plot to my friends gives everyone a headache... BUT thats what i absolutely love about it. Characters connect with eachother in such strange ways and i was honestly watching with my jaw on the floor a lot of the time. I dont think this was supposed to be a though provoking indie series or something like that, it was supposed to be a fun entertaining series, and i think it absolutely succeded. You just keep watching dying to see what happens next and you truly wont guess what will actually happen haha. Id also like to mention that the couples part was really engaging as well, like i was ROOTING for some moments between characters and it was so exciting to watch them interact:)
Let me start of with the fact that the visuals are absolutely stunning. Im still shoked that a movie was made with oil paintings and to know its a polish movie fills my heart with pride. The breathteaking views of polish conutryside really filled my heart with joy and nostalgia. The lighting, colors, and placement of everything in each scene was extremely nicely done and helped deliver the movie through visuals. Accompanied by dynamic, imaginative music it was quite the pleasure to watch.
It was such a raw movie, showing off so much polish culture unfiltered. The beautiful and the ugly. Dancing, music, ordinary life with lingering judgment, envy and hate. I have not personally read the original book so i cannot judge this movie in regards to it but im sure its a really good adaptration and ill definitely give the book a read.
Watching the movie you wonder whose in the right and eventually realize that its no one. All characters are flawed in different ways, and thats whats so beautiful and real about this.
Why didnt i give it 10/10? Well as much as i loved it i dont think i fully connected with its story on a personal level, and at moments i couldn't really wrap my head around the plot.
I'm however really confident about this movie going to the Oscars.
