Casshern SINS

A lot of really good sci-fi anime is dark and has very deep messages in every bit of the story, that's what makes a good science fiction, good. This anime series has a lot to offer and does not disappoint you with anything. Casshern SINS is a new remake of the old Casshern franchise, the series that were shown in 1973. Casshern also had four OVAs and a live-action movie. This is Casshern in his best, don't miss out on them even if you haven't seen other Casshern titles.

Casshern SINS project was produced by MADHOUSE animation studios. These people are very skilled and not afraid to show it. This is one of their best works and it is one their recent works too. We can only support them by buying anime. Say thank you very much to them and hope they will continue to bring more awesome anime titles.

The story starts with scenes of Casshern fighting other robots, they heard that if you eat him you will be saved and gain eternal life. Casshern seems to have lost his memory and does not know that he caused the world to start decaying and the whole robot race with it. The story follows along a path to finding Luna who may be alive and could save everyone from the decaying world, but also has many individual episodes connected to the whole story with little stories within.

Casshern does not remember what he is and why is he alive, as he fights the masses of robots that are attacking him. He encounters many characters including a little girl Ringo and an old scientist who takes care of her. Also a Luyuze a girl who lived only thinking of having revenge on Casshern after what he has killed her sister, but she hesitates to kill him when she finds out he has lost his memory. What else could make it this anime better than another dark Casshern fighting the real Casshern for supremacy.

The animation does not disappoint, the way Casshern fights other robots looks like he is dancing. There are a lot of really cool fighting scenes. There seems to be a lot more of dark purple colours than other, but that makes it very cool dark anime. The animation has been done very well and once again MADHOUSE have done a marvelous job.

The soundtrack has been selected carefully and just fits everything well, the voices fit characters well too. The sounds of machines and environment do make you feel like you are there and make you feel characters emotions.

If you haven't seen Casshern SINS you are missing out on a lot. We like it very much and love to just hear "Casshern!" in every episode. If you enjoyed Egro Proxy, this is something similar in a way. We love every bit of this anime and recommend it to everyone, not everyone will understand the messages behind all this animation, but at least you will see fascinating animation.
