#SOMALI TO MORI NO KAMISAMA EP 1 SERIES#
Still the excitment continues at JAFWA, as we start another regular series this week, the oft requested “Eizouken”. Though I feel like I let down the team by not properly celebrating Patlabor Day on August 10 th. Perhaps the only down side is that it felt a bit too short, I would have loved to accompany Somali and her Dad through a couple more episodes.Īnyway, I loved every moment of it and I can't recommend it enough, the closest to a perfect anime I've seen in a long time.The JAFWA screenings continue throughout August. Overall, it's a wonderful story which I think everyone should experience at least once it made me cry, laugh, scream, it created such a wide array of emotions which few works of fiction have ever managed to accomplish. The animation is beautiful and the world they travel through is outstandingly gorgeous, the great variety of creatures and the stories of those they encounter along the way paints a rather harsh yet powerful sense of how the world they are in operates, leading you to root even further for Somali and her monster Dad to succeed in their quest. Most of the characters they encounter are relatable in some way, they all have something special and nice about them which makes you able to grow to love and care deeply for them from the first time they appear on screen (with a few exceptions of course, no spoilers.) Without being too spoilery, the story follows the journey of a human girl with a Golem, a creature from the forest whowants to help her find other humans in a world inhabited by monsters where humans have been brought to the edge of extinction.ĭespite dealing with some strong issues from time to time, the story itself is one of love and self realization, where both Somali and her Golem companion learn to care for each other and grow as individuals, bonding throughout their journey in a way that I can only describe as wholesome, adorable and entertaining a wonderful Father-daughter dynamic I've seldom seen before. I'll begin by saying that calling this a masterpiece is an understatement, this is perhaps one of the best anime to come out in recent years, and one of the best I've ever watched.
First time writing a review on the site, yet I feel like I must write this in the hopes that more people can stumble upon this gem of an anime.
