Utawarerumono

[Plux]

I'm on episode 8 so far, I absolutely love this anime!
It's got comedy, action and a very good storyline!

Chris, & Niamh you were right. :)

[Plux]

Omg, what a build up!


Hakouro's real identity is Rak Shine and he's the brother in law of some guy from Fucha Feecha or whatever.

Ahh, i forgot how forward the actual anime goes, it gets far in the storyline fast, so you'll find out more stuff ;)

[Neversoft]

:O :O :O You're at the part where Touka is introduced! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ :D

See, I told you it was amazing! I won't say anything as I don't want to spoil a very interesting and unique story, but you ain't seen nothing yet! :D

I look forward to discussing it with you when you've finished it. Which is soon by the sounds of it. :P

Touka? I'm on Episode 13. I'm quite interested in this Evinkuruga.
It's such a great anime, the action is immense. Hakouro is a brilliant character! Karuru is also brilliant!


EDIT: LOL! Touka is the Evinkuruga.

Touka = The evinkuruga

[Plux]

I edited after realisng xD!

[Neversoft]

Touka = best character ever.

Touka, Hakuoro and Karura are my favourites. I'm gonna cosplay as Hakuoro at the expo in October hopefully. :P

Utawarerumono is such an overlooked anime, I'm glad I got you two to watch it. :P

Yeah, them 3 are brilliant! Benawi and Kurou (I think that's his name.)
Are also great.

Karuras just that character who doesn't care yet, is one of the strongest.
Love her huge sword aswell. :D

[Niall!]

The opening is gay, mainly the thing that puts me off apart from prbably not being able to connect to a half masked character

Yeah but but he's such an amazing character.
Deal with it. :D

The opening is one of my favourites and if you actually saw the whole series you'll understand why it's difficult to connect with the main character. You can't have seen many episodes anyway, so how do you know that you can't connect with him? It's one of the greatest series ever made in my opinion, action, characters, story, animation, the painted backgrounds, everything is spot on. Yeah ok, fine, you dislike the opening but the opening of Paranoia Agent makes no sense and freaks me out but the show itself is a marvel. You souldn't be put off by something that isn't important, you could easily skip the opening aswell. I have yet to meet a person who dislikes Utawarerumono, you can tell that much by looking at the poll on AnimeSuki Forums. I'm not saying you should watch it, I'm just saying you should give it a chance. :D

Utawarerumono is one of the best animes out there.
It rivals Death Note in my personal opinion, as you said decent characters, amazing action.

I'm on episode 20 and damn, it's great!

Near it's climax now, it should all be coming together soon. :)

It does indeed rival Death Note, it's very close in my opinion. I like them both the same, but I think Death Note is a little bit better. Although when I rewatch Utawarerumono I might change my mind. I watched Utawarerumono a year before I watched Death Note, so that might have something to do with it.

Heres an interesting fact ;) Utawarerumono was made by the same people who made Guyver and Berserk.

21 now, they're arguing over to invade or unify. xD
This is just so great. :)

[Plux]

Kunnekamun invading Tusukuru (I think that's it xD).
Man, this series is brilliant. :D

[Neversoft]

Finished it yet? Final thoughts? :P

[Joshuae]

Yeah I've finished.

OH MY GOD.
This anime is brilliant!

Still a bit confused with him in the future, but I get it with the Onkami etc.
The last few episodes were brilliant.

Karura, Touka, Kurou & Benawi brilliant characters, same as Harokou!

Future? I assume you mean all the flash backs/scene changes, they were what happened to Hakuoro in the past. They explain the back story on Wikipedia in very good detail, it helped me understand the whole thing.

Here :)

In the present age, an archaeological expedition unearths a mysterious fossil, a fossil of a disfigured beast. Unknown to the archaeologist, the fossil is the embodiment of a forgotten god, known as Witsuarunemitea. A superior scientist stumbles in, and after some confrontation, the mysterious stranger explains that humanity isn't ready for this Missing Link, the gap in evolution between men and apes. To prevent him from talking, he shoots the archaeologist. As the archaeologist slowly dies, his blood touches the fossil, and the forgotten god awakens.

Witsuarunemitea, a shattered and forgotten deity, sees opportunity in the dying archaeologist. He offers the archaeologist life, in exchange for becoming his vessel, so that Witsuarunemitea can finally find the sleep he so desires. Time passes, and eventually he becomes frozen in ice.

With Witsuarunemitea still bound in sleep as his mask, the archaeologist re-awakens many years into the future. He finds himself in an underground research facility, where he is being studied as an ancient human specimen. The archaeologist learns from the researchers that the world has become an uninhabitable wasteland, and the last of mankind lives there, in the underground shelter.

Mizushima, a researcher, is assigned to the care and study of the archaeologist, who is now referred to as the Iceman. Upon discovering that the 'Iceman' is able to breathe the post-apocalyptic air, the researchers look to harness his unique genome to re-populate the surface of the earth. Of the thousands of creations, only a select few prove to be viable, including experiments 3510 and 63. Experiment number 3510, a beautiful catgirl, is given the name Mikoto and experiment number 63, a girl, is given the name Mutsumi. Mutsumi, realizing she has come from the Iceman's DNA, addresses him as "father".

The genome project encounters some problems, however, and the researchers in charge decide to re-freeze the Iceman for later study. Mizushima, aware of the human side of the Iceman, urges him to run, and gives him the facility's master key, a plain-colored ring recognized by the facility's doors.

The Iceman runs from the facility, taking Mikoto with him, whom he has fallen in love with. After a few years have passed, Mikoto gives birth to a daughter. The researchers, however, put on environmental suits in order to pursue the Iceman and recapture both him and Mikoto. Mikoto is dissected for further research, but while Iceman is being prepared to be frozen, his rage awakens Witsuarunemitea.

Outraged by the treatment of Mikoto, a new side of Witsuarunemitea begins to form. Filled with rage, Witsuarunemitea destroys most of the facility. Appalled by what the humans would do to obtain immortality, Witsuarunemitea grants their plea, transforming them into immortal gelatinous beings. Eventually, the great god accrues so much rage as to split himself into two halves: one which seeks destruction, and another, which seeks only to be destroyed.

Suddenly, Mutsumi appears, and empowered by Witsuarunemitea's divine blood, she puts both halves of Witsuarunemitea to sleep. Meanwhile, the few successful genetic experiments from the research facility begin to repopulate the Earth's surface, as the original humanity slowly dies out and is forgotten. The research facility is sealed away forever, and the people are told it is Witsuarunemitea's holy land.

Years later, a shift in the world awakens the two halves of Witsuarunemitea, who begin to combat each other; the destructive side wanting to help the populace of the world reach new height through wars, and its opposite through peaceful cooperation. The emperor of Kunnekamun (whose people; the Shakukopuro, are being massacred) seeks out the destructive side, who grants him a power called the Avu-Kamuu, massive bio-mechanical constructs covered in platemail, allowing them to exist in the world of war and hegemony.

Eventually, the fighting of the two halves causes a great earthquake. Arurū, a young girl of Kenashikourupe, is in the process of climbing a tree to recover a beehive when the earthquake strikes, and falls, becoming greatly injured. Erurū, Arurū's sister, prays to Witsuarunemitea to heal Arurū, and promises, in exchange, her body and soul. Witsuarunemitea obliges.

Both halves of Witsuarunemitea are heavily injured in the battle, and both halves are put to sleep. The destructive half is found by Dii, a scholar of Onkamiyamukai, who fuses with the demigod. The half that wishes to be destroyed retains his body, and is found in the woods by Erurū.

The events of Utawarerumono then take place

[Joshuae]

Ah so much understood now!

[Nemo]

Yeah, it explains a lot.

Gotta love the ending though, quite sad. :[
