DVD Reviews of Mushi-shi, Vol. 5
DVD Review: My favorite anime
Summary: 5 Stars
Mushishi is an absolute masterpeice. It's a fantasy/drama unlike any you'll ever find, and it's my favorite anime.
Each episode tells a different story. I thought I would be bothered by this, but I wasn't. This adaptation is very faithful to the source material.
Mushishi evokes many different emotions while viewing it. Some episodes may have a really nice ending, while others can be really sad. The beautiful background music amplifies these effects.
The music is very serene. Listening to the OST, something I do everyday, is the best way to relieve stress. It really works wonders for the anime, especially when considering the quality of animation maintained throughout all 26 episodes.
I have yet to see an anime series animated as beautifully as Mushishi is. Everything was so well done, you can tell they spent a lot of time translating this from the manga. The Mushi are reminiscent of the creatures you would find in a Hayao Miyazaki film, the Kodoma of Princess Mononoke perhaps. They have a certain magical aura, a mystifying presence, that makes you want to see more and more of them.
I suggest you buy the DVDs, which come in a very nice package with lots of extras. This is an anime which should be seen by anyone who enjoys anime.
This DVD contains episodes 19-22

Description of Mushi-shi, Vol. 5
Neither good nor evil they are life in its purest form. Vulgar and strange they have inspired fear in humans since the dawn of time and have over the ages come to be known as "mushi."Empty heads and floating souls love fades fast. Like the stars ever present though unseen. When the desire to be human is less than the pull of the other the wedding will have a groom but no bride.A woman bearing the mark of generations cursed to drown in a sea of written characters. The forbidden sealed away within her body. Where tales of death abound compassion will flourish.A monster that can mimic the human the shapeless taking on the form of infancy. That which is beyond our understanding can quickly learn to understand us. Therein lies the danger.Life's inevitable end reduced to no more than a passing moment. Loved ones forever reborn. When the mother becomes daughter and daughter mother what of the wisdom of life eternal?Contains episodes 19-22System Requirements:Running Time: 105 minutesFormat: DVD Genre: ANIMATION/ANIME UPC: 704400051050 Manufacturer No: 0Bestsellers in DVD
