Inuyashiki

The only anime I saw this far which is more disturbing and sad than this one is Hotaru no haka aka grave of the fireflies.

The plot is really good and the animations are amazing.

I can recommend this mini-serie to all anime lovers which are not afraid of divergence when it goes about the mainstream manga and anime mentality.

It's fantastic, fudged up, free (on Amazon Prime Video). Slow burner then it rockets!

Not for kids or anyone who can't handle some very adult themes. Minimum 18 years old, really

Inuyashiki - Last Hero on Amazon Prime Video - a touching sci-fi action anime about a cancer patient accidentally got cured by a space ship, and uses his power to rescue and cure other people. The super villain is a high schooler who also happens to encounter the alien technology, and uses it to amuse himself with random killings. Good voice acting, simple and engaging characters. About 10 episodes, based on a manga series. The main character is voiced by Fumiyo Kohinata, a genuine character actor, who can convincingly plays a variety of roles: cops, teachers, doctors, family man, wise man, humble artist, calculating executive, slimy conman, to name a few.

"Inuyashiki" is an absurd but quite good anime.

I had to get used to the animation style, but that was done quickly.

From then on I was able to enjoy the full range of the anime and watch with excitement how differently two people deal with the same power given to them.

I've asked myself what I would do if such a fate befell me, and I think Inuyashiki wants that too, in part.

Make the viewer think.

The anime contains many impressive, sad, shocking, but actually funny moments too.

The ending is also very satisfying.

I recommend this anime to anyone who wants to see something different!!!

Great series! Could not stop watching it! Ended up binging it on two weekends. Emotionally, reminded me of "Grave of the Fireflies" (one of the greatest animes I have ever seen), just on a different level. Excellent characters. Great story. Great ending. Escapes me how more creative asian cinema is than here in the states. We usually end up doing remakes of their films under different names.
