Kijin Gentôshô

Episode 1 started a bit weird for me and there are things in Episode that I hope will be revealed as the story goes. So far the stories and mysteries about demons that the Jinta is solving episode after episode are very interesting for me. The background stories speak of human relationships and human emotions such as greed, love, greed, etc., and how such strong emotions can turn anyone into a demon of their own.

Writing is creative and imaginative as its finest and I always look forward to the next episode.

The drawing and animation are top notch for me. I just wished there's an English dub though.

Honestly, I hope Kijin Gentosho stays underrated. Unlike the massively overrated Demon Slayer, which only thrives off flashy animation. Most DS fans start running their mouths just because the visuals are top-tier - but the story? It's half-baked, overly dramatic, and the main character seriously lacks depth and maturity. Meanwhile, Jinta is a calm, layered protagonist with actual emotional weight. People who come from short reels and hype trains need to stop yapping and actually understand the story before comparing.

A breath of fresh air compared to other anime, its different in many ways but still manages to connect with the audience. The plot seems simple at first, but as the episodes go on more is revealed and it thickens. The main character is goated and the setting and music is also nice. The fights could have been a bit better coordinated but still only 4 episodes have aired , so we might get to see it later. Theres also a sense fo mystery of the world, since not much is known about anything, but the series does a good job of giving us more every episode

Definitely the best anime of 2025 spring, give it a shot!

Don not read this review This review is only for the first episode, and the rest of the anime was not worth all my praise. Another mediocre anime with a masterpiece first episode.

As of today, episode nine has been released.

Believe me, I've watched more than ten thousand episodes of anime and read as much manga as I can, but this one is so much of a masterpiece. I never thought an anime would be so much my type. It's rare that I feel an anime from the bottom of my heart. It could have been of higher quality and the art style would have been more creepy if it had been more detailed, but the story is like a gift to me, a fan of dark fantasy and drama. I hope the quality improves in future episodes. Since I haven't read the manga, I really enjoyed it. I hope more anime in this genre will be made and given more attention. Sorry for the bad grammar.

What an interesting series, truly.

"Kijin Gentoshou" is a series I can't recommend to everyone.

It's slow, has average animation, and many might even say it's boring.

However, there's something about it... it's not a dark "Kimetsu no Yaiba," no, it shines with its own light.

But it's contemplative, it takes its time to tell the story... but when there's a plot twist, it's impossible not to react.

The first episode itself is a declaration of interest; the length, animation, the plots, and the final outcome left me feeling drawn in.

Later, Jinta's story, told over the years, is a delight. It shows you the inexorable path of a half-demon, who is immortal but still has the flaws of any human.

There are plots, like the one about the invisible demon, whose ending left me broken.

There's the arc of the samurai and the demon trapped in the loop, or even the ending of Jinta's father, which are very sad.

However, even though I think it's a story with tremendous potential, it's hard to get into. As I said, it's slow, boring at times, and has average animation.

I'm not trying to change the pace, which for me is a fundamental part of what we're watching; however, it couldn't hurt to have a little love.

I'm eagerly awaiting the next batch of episodes to see what's in store for us from here on out.
