Nabaru no Ou is on its second half just like every other spring anime but it seems to me that some things just don’t get better as they proceed. When this started, I thought that it would really be interesting since it was about ninjas ( Naruto is good ) with just a darker setting ( something like Vision of Escaflowne or Darker than Black which are both great ). Half a season has passed but it still didnt make much of an impression to me. But I’ll give it another chance next episode since the ending of this one shows some promise.
For the last few episode, all I have been seeing is some kind of boy love between Miharu and Yoite. And as far as I know, I ain’t a fan of yaoi.
One of the few characters I really liked in this anime because of his shady and cheerful personality (serious when at work, can kill without hesitation but still on the “good guys” side) , Aizawa, has been killed. Damn. And he died in a very pathetic way. He was shot while the the guy with nothing really special, very stupid, most hatable “good guy” character Thobari was preventing him from killing the enemy. Even Jesus won’t be that naive.
At last! The Shinrabanshou has been activated. And now, it has lighting and some nice Dragon Ball Z like effects. Hopefully, this could be the start of something exciting.
