Onyx Equinox

It is a fine work of art, at last someone does justice to Mesoamerican stories, simply the fact that there is no censorship in sacrifices and weird customs are respected, the cult of death, gods, places, all are historically endorsed, nothing to do with western culture, Mesoamerica is more rooted in Asia than Europe.

Beautiful imagining of Mesoamerican cultures in a magical dark adventure. Like a more mature Avatar and Castlevania shows primed towards older audiences. The sense of scale in this show is amazing. Can't wait to see where it goes.

I liked the anime, it has like the avatar animation, I hope the story and fight is the best

I can't explain how much I adore Onyx Equinox, it has a lot of potential. The story and setting are simply great and I love all of the characters, especially the main hero. Izel may seem to be over-sensitive but I really liked his soft and delicate personality. Everyone says he cries and whines a lot but I think he is allowed to do so since he's just a child who lost his only dear person in a truly horrible way. Not to mention that he was forced to deal with some serious and dangerous stuff. The animation was a bit awkward but I am ready to overlook its flaws due to beautiful and complicated story Sofia Alexander is telling us. So excited for the continuation!

If I were to sum up it in a one word, this is a series where gods are all powerful and do whatever that pops into their mind + a 'hero' who is a crybaby almost all the time.

Most of the actions doesnt have any reasons to why they did those. And the story moves at a very fast phase with lots of gaps in between them.

For me, those are the major points thats drag this one down. Maybe the English dub should also be responsible for that because I kind of felt that the dub has lots of flaws as well.
