Fog Hill of Five Elements

10/10

This came into my radar out of nowhere. But within first 5min of the first episode I knew this was going to be a fantastic show. In terms of action this is the best anime I have seen this year. Fog Hill of Five Elements offers smooth animation of One Punch Man, coolness of Afro Samurai, comedy of Kung Fu Panda and Zen like art of Mushishi.

Long ago The Sacred Shrouded Mountain was home of many vicious monsters. To save the human five powerful Aspects appeared. They harnessed the five elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. They sealed the demons and saved the humanity. The story follows the journey of fire wilder Xuan as he finds himself between a fight of demons and humans.

The action is the best aspect of Fog hill of five elements. I have not seen such amazing fight choreography and animation since One Punch Man (2015). It is a visual treat. Some moments in the fight is just extraordinary. There are plenty of fight scenes to enjoy and each fight is unique and beautifully animated.

The design of the characters were awesome. Every central character looked unique. I loved the art style. The sound effects in the fight were great. One of the thing I liked was the comedy, especially in the first episode. I hope there will be more comedy scenes in the coming episodes.

This is an original Chinese anime but it far surpasses some of the best Japanese anime. So far three episodes have been released. Probably there will be total of 8 episodes. I am looking forward to see more of it. This is a must watch for anyone who likes action anime.

This is the Start of another Masterpiece.

I really don't understand why this anime is so underrated. If this was Japanese anime it would have blown out in popularity and would have gotten endless praises. This anime literally shows how other forms of animation are underrated compared to Japanese.

This is the story of the powerful five Elements and the world where humans and Demons exist. The Skeleton of this anime from the above may seem generic but when you reach deep Under the Skeleton things changes and you will see the beauty.

The real Appeal of this anime comes from the animation and the choreography of the fights. Each fight feels like a fight between martial artist. This anime puts lots of modern day anime to shame when it comes to choreography. Compared to this anime most modern day anime fight scenes seems like a fight between savages.

This is my first Chinese anime and I did not expected this to blow me like this. I was never into Chinese animation and for some reason I never took them seriously. Thank god I tried this anime, it really opens a completely New Horizons for me.

The action sense is brilliant. Fast but outstanding! I'm surprised it has a story too. The art is also drawn beautifully. When i first saw it, I couldn't wait for the next episode.

"Fog Hills of Five Elements" effortlessly captivates its audience with a symphony of intense fights, seamlessly weaving a narrative that balances adrenaline-pumping action and rich storytelling. This anime series, regrettably underrated, deserves a spotlight for its meticulous animation and compelling character development. In a landscape crowded with options, "Fog Hills" distinguishes itself, earning a well-deserved 5 stars for its masterful execution and ability to leave a lasting impact on viewers. An exhilarating journey through the realms of animation that demands recognition and acclaim.

Literally, this series has the best fights in all anime. You can't change my mind. The choreography is just mind blowing it even surpasses Ufotable's animation! Too bad it's only 3 episodes. Definitely this is one of the best action animes out there.
