Mononoke

"The animation is sparse, but the art is decadent. One of a kind."

"This show is so weird and the art style is so unique. But the stories were so interesting I binge watched the whole thing. "

"Definitely an interesting watch. It doesn’t have an overarching plot, so much as a number of individual cases throughout the show. If you like unique art styles or lore, I would recommend. It doesn’t have as much action as I was expecting, but the MC is cool. "

"I loved this series❤️ I've always loved Ghost stories, mythology, and folklore so this was right up my alley, and I love it. The art style is so beautiful, too. The stories can be a little hard to follow at times, with it's symbolism and never giving the audience a clear answer on certain things, but I rather like that about it. My only gripe is that I wish it was a little bit longer. Though, I understand that they do have a film that's set to come out next year in celebration of this series' 15 anniversary. I'm so very excited for that~"

"If you’re looking for an especially unique anime, this is perfect for you. Each episode is crafted with such care to details in the backgrounds/animation, the music, and the tone which can keep you attached to the screen as you’re watching. The Medicine Seller (Kusuriuri) is mysterious and while the anime doesn’t give any backstory to him, you can still tell what kind of person he is, simply by his well written dialogue and even by his LACK of dialogue in places. With that, the horror and mystique elements of this anime, I highly recommend it to anyone, again, who’s looking for an anime that breaks out of that traditional anime ‘mold’ that you see with modern anime and even anime from the mid to late 2000’s from which Mononoke was made"

"Beautiful horror, only 12 episodes, you have to watch it, the art is gorgeous "

"One of my favourite anime of all time, it's so stylish and creepy!! I definitely can't recommend this enough, since it's an anthology there's a story for everyone"

"This is probably my favorite anime, period. It's one of the prettiest things I have ever watched, but I also felt like it took me apart while watching it. A lot of the subject matter in it is very dark and serious, and the show really doesn't pull punches with it. It's hard to describe and I really recommend seeing it yourself, but only if you're in a good state of mind to tackle hard subjects."

"The art style is beautiful and the stories are so fun to unveil. 100% recommended even if you are not a big anime fan (this is not like any other anime you have seen)"

"Beautiful avant-garde anime for folks that have an interest in traditional Japanese art, occult and paranormal topics, Japanese history and religious beliefs, fantasy, and gorgeous kitsune boys. "
